Angels Notes: All-Star Breaks Hand, Ron Washington Talks Retirement, Major Trade Updates

In this story:
The Los Angeles Angels beat the Athletics, 2-1, on Tuesday thanks to a walk-off Nolan Schanuel single in the 10th inning. Schanuel's first career walk-off and a career-high 12 strikeouts from Jose Soriano helped the Halos get closer to .500 as they improved to 32-34 on the year.
Unfortunately, All-Star Chris Taylor broke his hand the night prior and has landed on the injured list. The veteran was hitting .313 with a 1.109 OPS in his last five games.
Additionally, manager Ron Washington recently opened up on the idea of retirement. He is currently managing on the final year of his two-year contract, but revealed the timeline of when he will retire from the game.
Finally, there are a few trade deadline updates as the Angels are seen as a team with tons of assets for the league's top contenders. The trade ideas are plenty, but should a deal present itself, an Angels team in need of a revamped farm system might have to pull the trigger.

Nolan Schanuel on his walk-off: "It's electric. I don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight. Adrenaline was pumping through my veins. Once I saw it fall and ran around the bases, I was super excited. And I don't think I've felt anything like this before." https://t.co/tXxrKb2O6w
