Reid Detmers - Drawing another startDetmers is scheduled to start Monday's game against the Twins in Minnesota.
ImpactDetmers will draw a second straight start in the Angels' six-man rotation after he impressed in his return to the big leagues this past Tuesday against the Dodgers. While making his first start for the Halos since June 1, Detmers limited a tough Los Angeles lineup to two runs on three hits and two walks while striking out 10 batters over six innings.

Shohei Ohtani hits 46th homer to tie career high on sweltering day at Dodger Stadium

Charles Leblanc - Lifts homer in lossLeblanc went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Rangers.
ImpactLeblanc provided the bulk of the Angels' scoring with his fourth-inning blast off Andrew Heaney. The homer was his second hit in five games with the Angels this season, though the infielder has maintained a decent .254/.379/.437 slash line over 98 games with Triple-A Salt Lake. Leblanc is unlikely to see much more than short-side platoon usage over the final three weeks of the season, and even then, he's not guaranteed to play against every opposing southpaw.

Caden Dana - Falters in second startDana (1-1) allowed five runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out one over one-plus inning, taking the loss Sunday versus the Rangers.
ImpactDana was pretty good in his major-league debut versus the Mariners last Sunday, but he couldn't follow it up against a more formidable offense. The Rangers pounced on the rookie for three home runs, and he left the contest after allowing five straight batters to reach to begin the second inning. Dana is likely to remain in the majors as long as the Angels keep with a six-man rotation, but he's a risky streaming option in fantasy since he's often had trouble with high walk rate. He's tentatively projected to make his next start at home versus the Astros.
