The Los Angeles Angels appear to be waiving the white flag on their season, one month after opting to keep Shohei Ohtani at the trade deadline. As reported by ESPN, the club called starter Lucas Giolito, relievers Matt Moore and Reynaldo López, and outfielders Hunter Renfroe and Randal Grichuk on waivers, allowing more competitive teams to pick up their heft contracts en route to the playoffs. The last Wild Card spot in the American League was a game out of the day 11.5 games. Ohtani sustained a UCL tear in his right elbow early this week, putting his season on the track and putting his future as an ace pitcher into question. Ohtani will be a free agent after the season, but he remains baseball's best slugger with 44 home runs on the season.

Luis Rengifo, Randal Grichuk, and Chad Wallach all scored solo home runs off Charlie Morton's second straight start, and the Los Angeles Angels beat the Atlanta Braves 4-1 on Monday night, defeating the major league-leading Atlanta Braves. Matt Olson's NL-best 36th homer and major league-leading 89th RBI made it 2-1 in the fifth, leading the Braves to join the 2019 Minnesota Twins as the only teams with 200 long balls before August. The No. 1 in Atlanta began the game with 31 more home runs than the Los Angeles Dodgers. The two teams were split on the road. The Braves (67-37) were coming off a three-game sweep of Milwaukee, in which they scored 29 runs and went deep 11 times.
