The Athletic's Sam Blum and former Sports Illustrated baseball editor Connor Grossman take a look at the Angels after two weeks of play. They are, at least, competitive. But how set up are they for success this season? And is it helping or hurting them long term to be relying so heavily on Nolan Schanuel and Zach Neto?
