Los Angeles Angels PR & Injury Honesty, 6-4 Loss to Twins, Officially Eliminated, Jo Adell's Season Ends
Locked On Angels - Daily Podcast On The Los Angeles AngelsAbout this episode
The Los Angeles Angels fell to the Twins on Wednesday, 6-4, after Jack Kochanowicz had a somewhat efficient start, but he struggled with pitch location, which ultimately affected his performance. With this loss, the Halos have been officially eliminated from playoff contention, marking another disappointing end to the season. We'll give you the details from the game and explain how 3 Halo home runs weren't enough to nab the win in segment 1. Then, Jo Adell made a significant change this season, switching from a leg kick to a toe-tap batting stance. This adjustment has led to noticeable improvements in his stats, marking a step in the right direction for the young outfielder. While it wasn't a full breakout season, Adell's progress is promising and suggests potential for future success. We'll discuss how this change has impacted his performance and what it means for his role on the team moving forward. Plus, the Angels' handling of Ben Joyce's injury has raised eyebrows, especially after manager Ron Washington claimed Joyce was fine just a day before he landed on the IL. This incident highlights a recurring issue with the team's injury communication, frustrating fans who feel left in the dark. We'll explore the implications of this poor communication and how it fits into the Angels' broader PR strategy. Is the team prioritizing a positive image over transparency?
