Angels' Vaughn Grissom: Homers in three-hit effort
Grissom went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Monday's 6-4 loss to Houston.
Grissom poked an RBI single into right field in the first inning before clobbering a solo homer to left-center field in the third frame. He added another single in the fifth inning, marking the infielder's fourth game with at least three hits this season. The 25-year-old has heated up with an .878 OPS in July, bringing his season slash line to .259/.325/.411 with seven homers, 43 RBI and 26 runs scored across 66 contests.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Saddled with blown save
Bachman blew the save Monday against Houston. He allowed an unearned run on no hits, two walks (one intentional) and a hit-by-pitch while striking out one over two-thirds of an inning.
Entering with runners on the corners and one out in a one-run game in the ninth inning, Bachman was unable to put out the fire, allowing three runs to score and blowing the save. No earned runs were charged to the 26-year-old, as the first two were inherited from Jose Fermin and the third was unearned due to Bachman committing a fielding error. The right-hander is now 1-for-4 in save opportunities and owns a 4.26 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 46:24 K:BB across 44.1 innings in 2026.

Angels' Walbert Urena: Strong showing in no-decision
Urena did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing one run on two hits and two walks over six innings against the Astros. He struck out five.
Aside from a solo homer by Taylor Trammell in the fourth inning, Urena kept the Astros offense quiet and was in line for the win before a ninth-inning implosion by the Angels bullpen. The right-hander's impressive rookie season has continued into July, as he's posted a 1.25 ERA and 1.02 WHIP across 21.2 innings (four starts) this month. Overall, Urena owns a 6-7 record with a 2.70 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 88:49 K:BB across 93.1 innings (19 appearances). His next outing is tentatively scheduled for Sunday against the Brewers.

Angels' Tyler Heineman: Another start versus righty
Heineman will start at catcher and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Astros.
Logan O'Hoppe started each of the last two days versus lefties, but this will be the third straight start for the switch-hitting Heineman against a righty. Heineman is 7-for-27 with a 3:3 BB:K in 11 games since joining the Angels in mid-June.

Angels' Logan O'Hoppe: Losing playing time versus righties
O'Hoppe is absent from the lineup for Monday's contest against the Astros.
It marks the third straight time the right-handed-hitting O'Hoppe has not started versus a right-handed hurler. O'Hoppe is slashing just .188/.254/.291 with a 25.8 percent strikeout rate against righties this season. Tyler Heineman will draw another start behind the dish Monday.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Can't convert save Sunday
Bachman was credited with a hold against San Francisco on Sunday despite allowing two runs on two walks while retiring just one batter.
Bachman got the call from the bullpen to begin the ninth inning with the Angels holding a 4-1 lead. The right-hander threw just seven of 18 pitches for strikes and walked two of the three batters he faced to bring the tying run to the plate. After his second walk, Bachman was lifted in favor of Mitch Farris, who gave up a Luis Arraez double to allow both inherited runners to score but was ultimately able to record the save. It was a disappointing outcome for Bachman, who picked up a save in late June and has been part of the high-leverage mix for an unsettled Angels bullpen. He didn't do himself any favors Sunday in gaining additional opportunities to close, and Ryan Zeferjahn and Kirby Yates remain the most likely of the Angels' relievers to see save chances moving forward.

Angels' Jorge Soler: Launches 12th long ball
Soler went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Sunday's 4-3 victory over the Giants.
After recording an RBI groundout in the first inning, Soler opened the fourth frame with a 419-foot rocket to straightaway center field for his 12th homer of the campaign. The veteran slugger had been mired in a power drought, with his last homer before Sunday's blast coming June 24 against the Orioles. Soler has struggled with consistency at the plate this season, slashing .202/.288/.374 with 27 extra-base hits, 47 RBI and 36 runs across 82 contests.

Angels' Jo Adell: Smashes 16th homer
Adell went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's win over the Giants.
Adell walloped a Carson Whisenhunt changeup 446 feet to left-center field for a two-run homer in the fourth inning. The outfielder has reached base safely in six straight contests while clubbing three long balls during that stretch. On the year, Adell is hitting .243/.290/.403 with 16 homers, 59 RBI, 46 runs and three stolen bases across 105 games.

Angels' Mike Trout: Perfect at plate in win
Trout went 4-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Sunday's win over the Giants.
Trout didn't drive in any runs, but he reached base in all four plate appearances during Sunday's win. It marked the three-time American League MVP's first four-hit effort since April 2021. Since returning from a right hamstring strain July 8, the 34-year-old has slashed .319/.421/.447 with a homer, three doubles, four RBI, six runs and a stolen base in 13 games.

Angels' Mitch Farris: Secures first career save
Farris picked up the save Sunday against the Giants. He allowed no earned runs on a hit and no walks while striking out one over two-thirds of an inning.
Farris entered with two runners on and one out in the ninth inning and surrendered a two-out, two-RBI double to Luis Arraez but was able to punch out Heliot Ramos to secure the victory for the Angels. It marked Farris' first big-league save, as the 25-year-old southpaw has posted a 3.53 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 43:18 K:BB across 43.1 innings this season. Los Angeles' bullpen has been shaky and lacks a true closer, though Ryan Zeferjahn, who pitched the eighth inning Sunday, and Kirby Yates, who was likely unavailable after pitching the previous two days, remain the most likely candidates for saves.

Angels' Jose Soriano: Earns ninth win
Soriano (9-6) earned the win Sunday, allowing one unearned run on three hits and three walks over five innings in a 4-3 win over San Francisco. He struck out five.
Soriano was lifted after five frames at 85 pitches (47 strikes), but he was able to keep the San Francisco offense quiet en route to picking up his first win since June 13. After a disastrous stretch on the mound during May and June, the right-hander has found his footing a bit in July, posting a 2.74 ERA and 0.96 WHIP across 23 innings (four starts), though his strikeout production has dipped a bit this month. Overall, Soriano owns a 3.29 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 127:57 K:BB across 123 innings (22 starts) and is tentatively scheduled to make his next start Saturday against Milwaukee.

Angels' Josh Lowe: On bench for third straight game
Lowe is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.
The left-handed-hitting Lowe will take a seat for the third straight game and for the second straight matchup versus a left-handed starter (Carson Whisenhunt). Though he appeared to have a grasp on the primary left-field job, Lowe may have moved into more of a committee with Wade Meckler and Jose Siri after falling into a 5-for-32 (.156 average) skid at the plate over his last 11 games.

Angels' Ryan Johnson: Stomped by Giants
Johnson (2-5) took the loss Saturday, coughing up eight runs on eight hits and a walk over 3.1 innings as the Angels were downed 9-2 by the Giants. He struck out four.
San Francisco reeled off six straight hits in the third inning to get the rout rolling, capped by a three-run homer from Jung Hoo Lee. Johnson had given up just seven earned runs total over his prior five outings, but Saturday's disaster undid all the progress he'd made in getting his ratios under control. The 23-year-old right-hander will take a 7.34 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 34:17 K:BB over 41.2 innings into his next trip to the mound, which is scheduled to come at home next weekend against the Brewers.

Angels' Nolan Schanuel: Posts steal Friday
Schanuel went 2-for-5 with one RBI and one stolen base in Friday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Giants.
Schanuel rarely taps into any speed -- his steal Friday was his first of the season. Perhaps he has some confidence going, as he's hitting .375 (21-for-56) with an 8:8 BB:K across 15 games in July. Overall, the first baseman is batting .282 with a .748 OPS, six home runs, 36 RBI, 32 runs scored and 17 doubles across 84 games this season.
