Hi, Taylor here. For those that are new and apparently from the Mid-Atlantic, I am Taylor Blake Ward. I have covered the Los Angeles Angels since 2013, and sadly, I do not have the talents to play for the Baltimore Orioles, but do wish Joseph Taylor Ward well in his new endeavors

Kurt Suzuki on José Soriano:
“We wanted to kind of be cautious to him. I mean, it was smoked right off his, I think it was his chest, his right side, didn't want to take a chance, gave us 5 good innings, and I felt like that was the right time to get him out of there.”

#Angels LHP Johnny Slawinski got touched up a bit, but he still struck out 10 hitters over 4.1 innings and got 23 whiffs on 40 swings. Pretty fun prospect.

Paperwork is done. Kentucky first baseman Hudson Brown has officially removed his name from the 2026 Draft.
Brown was expected to go in the fourth or fifth round.
Big news, #BBN:
HUDDY ISN'T GOING ANYWHERE! @HBrown2318 returning to Lexington for the 2027 season.
