5/10/24 Nolan Schanuel looks to spark Angels against Royals. The Los Angeles Angels were impressed with first baseman Nolan Schanuel, drafting him out of Florida Atlantic University last year with the 11th overall pick and then promoting him to the major league team after just 22 games in the minors. Schanuel, who likely will be batting leadoff for the Angels on Friday night when they face the Kansas City Royals in the second contest of a four-game series in Anaheim, Calif., hasn't let the club down.

5/05/24 Angels Nolan Schanuel is succeeding since he’s stopped trying to hit homers. Skeptics pointed out last year that Schanuel hadn't shown power, so he changed his approach early this season. Once he stopped doing that, he has been much productive, and he's still hit a couple homers.

4/23/24 Angels Manager Treated Critical Ninth Inning At-Bat as Learning Experience. Angels Manager Treated Critical Ninth Inning At-Bat as Learning Experience Author: Maren Angus-Coombs Apr 23, 2024 In this story: Los Angeles Angels Nolan Schanuel Mike Trout With the bases loaded and one out in the ninth inning on Monday night, the Los Angeles Angels were down 4-2 and leadoff batter Nolan Schanuel stepped into the box. It was a surprising move for manager Ron Washington to leave the rookie in there instead of opting to call on veteran Brandon Drury who remained on the bench on Monday, even though he was available to pinch hit against Baltimore Orioles closer Craig Kimbrel. Drury is 2-for-4 with a walk and a two-run home run against Kimbrel in his career. Schanuel popped out

4/07/24 Scoring change ends Nolan Schanuel's historic on-base streak. Los Angeles Angels first baseman Nolan Schanuel reached base safely in 36 consecutive games to begin his MLB career, a feat he started last season and continued into this one. The incident in question happened on March 30 when the Angels faced the Baltimore Orioles. Prior to his plate appearance in the ninth inning, Schanuel had recorded a groundout, a flyout and two strikeouts. On an 0-1 count, he slapped a sharp ground ball to Baltimore first baseman Ryan Mountcastle, who dove for the ball and attempted a throw from his knees to pitcher Mike Baumann.

4/04/24 Angels take on surging Red Sox in home opener. The Los Angeles Angels will face the Boston Red Sox, who have won four in a row, in their home opener Friday night in Anaheim, Calif. But that's not the only streak on the line when the two clubs begin a three-game series. Angels first baseman Nolan Schanuel has reached base in the first 35 games of his career, the third-longest streak to begin a career in major league history. Only Alvin Davis (47 in 1984) and Truck Hannah (38 in 1918) had longer streaks. Schanuel was fast-tracked to the big leagues, drafted out of Florida Atlantic in June 2023 and promoted to the majors after only 22 minor league games.

3/27/24 [Last Word on Sports] - Top Prospects From the American League West Division. The AL West is the only division in baseball where a isn't featured. Instead, it's a mix of outfielders and infielders who were drafted within the last two years in what could be the weakest pool of prospects at this time. The incumbent division champions Houston Astros farm system has hit a low point following the trade. Unfortunately, the Los Angeles Angels and Oakland Athletics have the weakest farm systems in baseball as they can only go up from here. However, that's not the case for a team like the Seattle Mariners. They had a huge draft haul last year to add to their cupboards down the road. Lastly, the Texas Rangers may have won the World Series, but their farm system is the only one in the division that's in great shape. AL West Top Prospects Jacob Melton, OF, Houston Astros Scouting grades: Hit: 50| Power: 55| Run: 65| Arm: 55| Field: 55| Overall: 50 was the Houston Astros second-round pick in 2022. He's overly aggressive at the plate and still doesn't have a classic left-handed swing. But Houston continues to work with him to streamline it and tone down a big leg kick he had in college. His strength and bat speed create plus raw power that plays all fields, and his mechanical changes have enabled him to drive the ball in the air more consistently. He struggled against southpaws and did most of his work in High-A Asheville in 2023. His quickness gives him solid range in center field and has a better chance to play there after departed in the . Nolan Schanuel, 1B, Los Angeles Angels Scouting grades: Hit: 60| Power: 50| Run: 50| Arm: 50| Field: 50| Overall: 55 Taken No. 11 overall by the Los Angeles Angels, played 22 minor league games before getting called up to the big leagues. He did quite well in his debut with a .275/.402/.330 line and more walks than strikeouts. Schanuel's plate discipline is legit as he rarely chases out of the zone and he can hammer fastballs like nothing. He has a keen sense of finding the barrel, whiffing just 17.6 percent of the time. He's an above-average runner who has good base running instincts. He's already reached the majors and there's no reason to think that he won't be in the lineup consistently. , SS, Oakland Athletics Scouting grades: Hit: 65| Power: 45| Run: 50| Arm: 55| Field: 50| Overall: 55 The son of , Jacob became the No. 6 overall pick in the 2023 MLB Draft. He hit a combined .333 while leaping High-A Lansing during his professional debut. He's not a runner but he has outstanding instincts and hands to stick at shortstop long-term. His issue is his bat, he doesn't strike out much (2.3 percent strikeout rate in 2023), but his contact is fairly weak. The contact skill is elite, with 12 strikeouts total in his last two years at Grand Canyon. A step forward with more of an offensive impact could move Wilson up to another level in the minor leagues. Cole Young, SS/2B, Seattle Mariners Scouting grades: Hit: 60| Power: 45| Run: 55| Arm: 55| Field: 50| Overall: 55 Like teammate , is also a left-handed hitter, but with very different profiles. Young's a better athlete, and runner and has a better chance to stay at shortstop in the long. He's got a great feel for the barrel, with a strikeout rate under 15 percent last season while drawing as nearly as many walks. Young has seen some time on the right side of second to provide some positional versatility. It's something that could come in need as his advanced bat looks like it can get him to Seattle sooner. Wyatt Langford, Texas Rangers Scouting grades: Hit: 60| Power: 70| Run: 55| Arm: 45| Field: 50| Overall: 65 had a debut like no other for the Texas Rangers. He played at four levels last season, hitting .360/.480/.677 in 200 professional plate appearances, He's an electric offensive player with a smooth, powerful right-handed swing where he stays very steady through contact. His lone weakness is hitting against left-handers, slashing .242/.349/.253 in 2023. Langford is fast enough to play at center but played left in college and spent most of his major league debut there too. His average arm strength gives him the chance to play all three spots.

Author: Noah Camras Publish date: Mar 18, 2024 2:37 PM EDT In this story: Los Angeles Angels Angels starting first baseman Nolan Schanuel has been scratched from Monday's Cactus League game with back tightness, per Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register. Schanuel was expected to hit second behind Aaron Hicks, but will now miss Monday's game. He was replaced by Miguel Sano at first base, and Livan Soto joined the lineup at third base (Sano's original position). This is a new issue for Schanuel, but hopefully it's not too severe.

3/14/24 Angels top prospect eerily resembles Shohei Ohtani with latest home run swing. One of the more surprising developments for the Los Angeles Angels last season was, without question, the ascent of Nolan Schanuel. The Angels picked Schanuel at 11th overall, which was already a bit of a reach considering how he was ranked by the industry before the draft. What was shocking, though, was that the Angels promoted Schanuel to the big leagues less than six weeks after they picked him. For baseball, these sorts of promotions just don't happen anymore, and it spoke to just how desperate LA was to bolster their roster last year while Shohei Ohtani was still on the team.
