The Los Angeles Angels kicked off a series against the Seattle Mariners with a 5-4 win as Kyle Hendricks earned his 100th career win, and Kenley Jansen secured career save No. 460.

Ahead of the win, the Angels made a roster move and activated a relief pitcher. A young pitcher was optioned in a corresponding move.

Additionally, a former first baseman/outfielder from the Tampa Bay Rays and Miami Marlins was signed to add depth to the Halos' roster. The former fourth-round draft choice most recently playing for the independent league will look to make the most of his opportunity with the Halos.

Finally, if the Angels decide that this season is one to scrap and rebuild, an insider expected that they will be a 'popular' hot spot ahead of the trade deadline. There are many key assets on the Halos roster that contenders would exchange for top prospects, but perhaps the best course of action is to build around said assets and soon get back to the contender conversation.
