Taylor Ward - Slugs grand slam Sunday Ward went 2-for-5 with a grand slam in an 8-6 win against Oakland on Sunday.
Impact Ward turned the tide of the contest in the fourth inning, belting a grand slam that turned a Los Angeles three-run deficit into a one-run lead. It was the outfielder's second homer in his past three contests following a 24-game stretch without a long ball. Ward has run hot and cold this season, and he's slashing .227/.309/.401 with 16 home runs, 51 RBI, 47 runs and three stolen bases through 433 plate appearances overall.

José Soriano - Falters vs. Athletics Soriano allowed six runs (three earned) on five hits and two walks while striking out two batters over 2.2 innings in a no-decision against Oakland on Sunday.
Impact Soriano came into the contest having picked up a pair of wins while allowing just two runs over his previous two starts covering 13.2 innings, but he couldn't keep the momentum going Sunday. The right-hander got through the first two frames in good shape but allowed four hits -- including two doubles -- and two walks in the third before being pulled. Five runs scored while he was on the mound, and another was charged to him after his departure, though only three were earned due to a Brandon Drury fielding error. Soriano will try to rebound in his next start, which is tentatively slated to take place at home against the Mets this weekend.

Luis García - Records first post-Estevez save Garcia earned a save against Oakland on Sunday, retiring all three batters he faced in the ninth inning.
Impact Angels manager Ron Washington said before the game Sunday that Garcia would step into the closer role after Carlos Estevez was traded to Philadelphia on Saturday, and the skipper held true to this word when he brought Garcia into the contest with Los Angeles up by two runs in the top of the ninth inning. The veteran reliever did his part to reward his manager's confidence, needing just nine pitches to set the side down in order. The save was Garcia's career-high fourth of the campaign, and he's added 12 holds along with a 3.71 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 40:14 K:BB over 43.2 frames overall. Sunday's outcome suggests that fantasy managers in need of a closer can feel confident in adding Garcia if he's still available on the wire.

Mickey Moniak - Out of Sunday's lineup Moniak is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
Impact Moniak has a .560 OPS in eight contests since the All-Star break and will take a seat for Sunday's contest. Kevin Pillar will man center field and bat fifth in the series finale.

Anthony Rendon - Still on bench Sunday Rendon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the A's, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
Impact It's the second consecutive game on the bench for Rendon, who has gone 5-for-30 in seven contests since the All-Star break. Willie Calhoun will bat cleanup as the designated hitter in the series finale versus Oakland.

Ben Joyce - Named setup man, closer-in-waiting Angels manager Ron Washington said Sunday that Joyce will work as the club's top setup man after the trade of Carlos Estevez, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Impact Luis Garcia will step in as Anaheim's new closer, but he's also a candidate to be traded ahead Tuesday's deadline. If Garcia is dealt, Joyce will then be next in line for saves. The flame-throwing righty is averaging 101.8 mph on his fastball this season and has a 2.33 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 16:20 K:BB across 19.1 innings.

Luis García - Stepping in as closer Angels manager Ron Washington said Sunday that Garcia will take over at the club's primary closer, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
Impact The departure of Carlos Estevez leaves the Halos with a hole in the ninth inning, and Garcia will receive the first look as the team's new closer. Garcia has three saves and 12 holds with a 3.80 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 40:14 K:BB across 44 appearances this year. The veteran right-hander is also a candidate to be traded ahead of Tuesday's deadline given his expiring contact, in which case Ben Joyce would likely see most of those opportunities.

Nolan Schanuel - Solo homer in loss Schanuel went 1-for-2 with a solo homer and two walks in Saturday's loss to the Athletics.
Impact Schanuel drew a leadoff walk in his first trip to the plate but was left stranded. He then came back with a solo homer in the bottom of the third, which would end up being the only run produced by the Angels' offense in the loss. The first baseman has now homered in back-to-back games and has hit safely in four of his last five. Over that latter stretch he's batting .333 (5-for-15) with three RBI and five runs scored. Schanuel has also drawn at least one walk in five consecutive games.

Tyler Anderson - Fans 10 in losing effort Anderson (8-9) took the loss against the Athletics on Saturday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk over seven innings while striking out 10.
Impact All three runs charged to Anderson came across in the first inning when he allowed two of the first three batters to reach before surrendering a three-run homer to Shea Langeliers. The lefty would then allow just three singles and a walk over six scoreless frames to close out his night, but still ended up taking his ninth loss as the Angels' offense produced just one run in the contest. Anderson induced 17 whiffs in the loss, racking up 10 strikeouts for the second time in his last four starts. He's also gone at least six innings in three of his last four outings and currently holds a 2.70 ERA in July to go along with a robust 32:2 K:BB.
