Angels Power Rankings – Pitchers – August 18th

Home / Angels / Angels Power Rankings – Pitchers – August 18th

My rankings include the entire 40 man roster – not just the active 25 man.

These rankings were compiled with the help of MLB stats, FanGraphs, misc. data, personal opinion, and some fairy dust I found hidden in Shoemaker’s beard.

An asterisk* means the player was not on the active roster at the time of this posting.

Updates to List:

Mike Morin was activated from the DL and recalled from the minors
Caleb Clay was was removed from the 40 man roster
Vinnie Pestano was sent to Salt Lake
