This is David Fletcher starting over Luis Valbuena against a right-handed starting pitcher.
It’s obvious that Mike Scioscia read his team these motivational quotes and decided to actually start playing the best lineup possible.
Also, Albert Pujols is back!
Jaime Barria will get the ball, recently returned from AAA. Beat those White Sox!
The #Angels have reinstated Albert Pujols from the disabled list and recalled RHP Jaime Barria from Adv.-A Inland Empire.
