Angels who have been hot as of late lost last night now let's see if this team can bounce back against Vincente Padilla who was originally questionable with a shoulder injury but now has been announced to start. I love going against players who have an injury but are making a start against a team that has hit them hard. Angels have a .328 average against Padilla and they have 10H in each time they have seen Padilla this year each time in Texas.
Padilla won't have to worry about Guererro on Wednesday as he is out of the lineup and might go on the DL. However, the Angels faced Padillas without Guererro already this year and still managed 10H and still have a .310 average against. Padilla will also have a night start where he has a 6.38ERA compared to his day ERA of 3.07. Tonight he makes a start in LA where he owns a 5.98ERA in his last 4 starts here. The Angels with a .352 average and are scoring 9.40 R/9 in their last 5 games vs. RHP.
Ervin Santanna will make his second start off the DL and I think he'll make some progress here. He has struggled against the Rangers before but mainly on the road. @ home against the Rangers he has a 1.80ERA in 2 of his 3 starts at home here.
