8/08/24 | Hochman: Will Cardinals' Nolan Gorman set MLB record for K percentage in a year?. For decades, when it came to guys who homered and struck out with obscene frequency, Deer was often the reference. The Cardinals slugger entered Wednesday with a 37.8% strikeout rate. Only two players in baseball history — yes, history — have had a higher single-season strikeout percentage ... but consider those both happened in the 60-game season of 2020 (Minnesota's Miguel Sano at 43.9% and Seattle's Evan White at 41.6%).

7/01/24 | Special Edition: I’m The Problem, It’s Me: Triston McKenzie, Nolan Jones, Mike Trout. This year, I've been giving you obscure adds for your desperate teams. Loyal readers who read the whole article also find that, at the bottom, I give you a "sell" tip. Sometimes, the most effective thing we can do for our fantasy teams isn't adding a new player, but benching your struggling high draft pick. But my confirmation bias, you shout, staring at your 2019 league winning team on Yahoo's history page. Miguel Sano is due! Me too, bro. One day I'll return to my 30 homer power and you'll be drafting me in leagues again. But until then, you need to cut your dead weight and open up space for some hot second half action. Think about baseball!
To celebrate the Fourth of July this week, I'm giving you a whole article on "sell" options -- let's get your roster ready for the next big thing! Source: https://razzball.com/special-edition-im-the-proble... |

4/03/24 | Miguel Sano helps Angels trounce hapless Marlins. Miguel Sano reached base four times, Patrick Sandoval rebounded from a forgettable Opening Day start and the Los Angeles Angels completed a three-game sweep of the host Miami Marlins with a 10-2 victory Wednesday afternoon. It was the Angels' fourth win in a row, while the Marlins are now 0-7, the longest losing streak to start a season in franchise history. Sano did not play at all last season after spending his entire career with the Minnesota Twins from 2015-22, but a knee injury and a weight issue resulted in him playing just 20 games in 2022 and hitting .083. This past offseason, he dedicated himself to getting in shape, lost 58 pounds and the Angels took a chance on him with a one-year, $1 million contract.

2/26/24 | LA Angels NRI Miguel Sano revealed he lost absurd amount of weight for 2024 comeback. When the Los Angeles Angels announced their non-roster invites list before spring training, most of the names were clearly just prospects that had little chance of making the club out of spring training, as well as a few fringe MLB guys just looking for a chance. Fans may remember that Sano burst on to the scene with the Twins when he hit 18 homers in just 80 games his rookie season. Unfortunately, Sano's issues with strikeouts, as well as a knee injury in 2022, hurt his production dramatically, and he found himself let go by the Twins and unable to get a job in the big leagues at all for 2023.
