Yankees vs angels: preview of the series, probable starters

The Yankees are a bit in shock after being swept away in the hands of the Red Sox this weekend. They seem to have an easier target aligned for them as they return home in search of a rebound. After all, the Yankees swept away the angels in a three game set in Anaheim as part of a largely fruitful trip to the west coast. This does not mean that the angels were a boost – two of these three victories were decided by a single round. In addition, Mike Trout still rehabilitates a knee injury during this series; It was activated at the end of May and will participate in this set of four games in the Bronx. Fortunately, he is not the only Slugger Star to be back for the Revenge match, because Giancarlo Stanton should return during this series!

The angels played respectable ball this year, but the peripherals would indicate that they played above the sum of their parts. Their differential of -53 is closer to the White Sox than the Mariners and the Rangers, with whom they fight for second place in the Al West behind the Astros. Their attack and pitching staff rank 26th in the Fangraphs war (Sunday morning). They have also just been swept away by the Orioles.

Monday: Clarke Schmidt against José Soriano (7:05 p.m. He)

Schmidt was excellent during his last outing against the Royals, helping to win a serial victory with six -sleeves aimlessly in Kansas City. He had this exact line in the Angels series on May 28 – The Yanks climbed a 1-0 victory. It looks like command was the main obstacle to the repeated success of this year for the law, but he composed all of his locations on Wednesday. We will see if he can make two in a row against a team he manipulated last month.

José Soriano is skillful enough to walk on the metaphorical rope. It is in the middle of a second consecutive second season despite a high walking rate and a low withdrawal rate. If you are guilty of these two things, you better keep the ball on the ground, which Soriano does with a 67.4%clip. Bombers will have to find a way to lift your heavy well.

Tuesday: Will Warren against Kyle Hendricks (7:05 p.m. He)

Warren did not face the Angels in May, but he saw them during his first home departure in MLB last August. The halos set it for eight points in eight strokes, which included a big slam from Zach Neto, which was easily their best striker this season. Warren has gone through a long way since then and will undoubtedly be motivated by that night difficult to publish a better result.

It is difficult to believe that Professor Hendricks always gives conferences, but the titular veteran is not yet ready to receive the emeritus label. Probably more on the list for what he can teach that he can provide in rotation, Hendricks will try to keep the offensive at a distance rather than wasting opposing alignments with his vintage repertoire which always had the impression that he came from a different period. Even if he is no longer a leading spirit in his field, it will be pleasant to see it in front of the class once again.

Wednesday: Ryan Yarbrough against Jack Kochanowicz (7:05 p.m. He)

This launcher match and Thursday are rehearsals of the first two games in the series last month. Yarbrough won the victory with six heaps of a race and Kochanowicz, who granted four points in fourth but was excellent in addition, took the defeat.

Since we have reruns, let’s talk a little more about Stanton’s return. It is always difficult to know what to expect from him in the regular season these days, especially on his return from his elbow of tennis – er, elbows. I expect him to obtain the majority of departures in DH in the future, especially since Ben Rice set up a .405 OPS in June. But they may have wanted to take things slowly with him when he returns. Aaron Boone could simply sit against Kochanowicz law and then put it against the left -hander Tyler Anderson on Thursday. Admittedly, the Yanks will not go without his bat against Southpaws, which they nevertheless have seen very well this year.

Thursday: Carlos Rodón against Tyler Anderson (1:05 ​​p.m.)

Rodón comes out of a pair of uninteresting departures against the Red Sox, but it is not as if he had been torn either. In fact, Rodón was QC Maven this year, displaying five or more rounds each time when he did not have his best things. Needless to say, he had his best things in the masterpiece with seven-rounds without scale and ten strokes that he swirled against these angels on May 27. Tyler Anderson was also excellent, but the elder Portsider granted a pair of races in a possible 3-2 Yankee victory.

In particular, Rodón did not have to deal with trout in this performance. Until now, the woman’s temple has not had a very trout season, and you can probably thank the thousand Marèmes who fell from a cloud to destroy the back half of her career. Until now, it has been a little true-results, which could remind you of the other often injured superstar that missed the last meeting of these teams. However, we imagine that time has not completely sanded its athletic capacity. We hope.
