Mike Ford Gets Two Hits In Angels Debut
2 years agoLos Angeles Angels first baseman Mike Ford went 2-for-4 with two strikeouts in the team's 8-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on Thursday in his debut with the club. Ford was recently signed with Jared Walsh (shoulder) being ruled out for the rest of the season due to thoracic outlet syndrome. The 30-year-old should see decent playing time will splitting at-bats with Matt Thaiss at the cold corner the rest of the way for the out-of-contention Angels, making him worth a look in AL-only leagues. The left-handed slugger is with his fourth team this year alone, as he's also seen action with the Giants, Mariners and Braves. He's played in just 23 games this year, going 8-for-44 (182) with no home runs and five RBI.
