ANAHEIM–The Los Angeles Angels are preparing to meet the Oakland A’s Monday night to open a three game series, the Angels are just a half a game out of the wild card spot to catch the second spot now occupied by the Houston Astros. More interestingly the Halos are only three games out of first place.

The Angels are going to play the Rangers who are in first place have four more games left and this season will be over by next Sunday night. The Angels might have won the division by that time and make it into post season. It’s not going to be easy but the Halos have a very good chance at making the wild card.

The A’s have nothing to lose, their playing for pride, their playing for honor. They’ve been eliminated for a long time they don’t want to lose 100 games and they won’t lose 100 games as a matter of fact. On Monday the A’s will be going with Felix Doubront as the Angels will start lefty Hector Santiago. This could turn out to be a great match.
