Alright I'm just gonna say it: Every hitter in the Angels lineup has a Steamer projection over 100 wRC+

Oh, hello again.

I am LOVING the Angels offseason thus far. They actually seem to have a sense of urgency to add depth…

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

The Los Angeles Angels acquired outfielder Hunter Renfroe from Milwaukee for pitchers Janson Junk, Elvis Peguero and Adam Seminaris, the teams announced. Renfroe, 30, is in his final year of arbitration and reaches free agency after 2023 season but is another upgrade for Angels.

This seems… weird?

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

The Houston Astros also fired assistant general manager Scott Powers, sources told ESPN. Powers was a former R&D executive with the Dodgers who was brought in as an AGM by James Click in January. Now Click and Powers are gone from the World Series champions on the same day.

Yordan Alvarez vs Jose Alvarado
#LevelUp

Home Run (3) 💣

Exit velo: 112.5 mph
Launch angle: 27 deg
Proj. distance: 450 ft

No doubt about that one 🔒
That's a dinger in all 30 MLB ballparks

PHI (1) @ HOU (3)
🔻 6th

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

Yordan Álvarez's home run went 450 feet, but if you transposed the first two digits I wouldn't have been surprise.

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

Yordan Álvarez just hit a mammoth three-run home run to center field and Jose Alvarado poured gasoline on the fire and Minute Maid Park is going absolutely wild and the Astros now lead 3-1 and they're nine outs from winning the World Series.
