Angels

 The Angels have lost three straight games directly on the heels of a four-game win streak. Los Angeles went 15-13 in June -- in the 15 wins, the Angels averaged 7.3 runs per game with 36 home runs, while in the 13 losses they averaged 2.6 runs per game with 10 home runs.

 The Rangers lost two of three against the Rays over the weekend, snapping a streak of nine consecutive series without a series loss.

 These teams have split 10 matchups so far this season, though the Rangers swept the Angels in three games in the only series played in Texas. The Rangers are 13-5 at home against AL West teams this season, equaling the number of divisional home wins that they had all of last season (13-25).

 Mike Trout has a 1.080 OPS in his career against the Rangers, the second-highest mark by any active player against any team (min. 500 PA) -- Albert Pujols has a 1.121 OPS against the Pirates.

 Joey Gallo reached 20 home runs in his 56th game of the season, the third fewest needed to reach that mark in a season all-time by a Ranger behind Josh Hamilton (44 in 2012) and Frank Howard (46 in 1968).

 Mike Minor has a 2.40 ERA this season, the lowest by a Texas pitcher in his first 17 starts of a season since Rick Honeycutt in 1983 (1.52 ERA). Since last year's All-Star break, Minor has a 2.59 ERA across 27 starts, which is the lowest mark in the AL over that time (min. 125 IP).

Rangers

Fresh off his first All-Star selection, Texas Rangers left-hander Mike Minor will get back to work against the Los Angeles Angels in the opener of their four-game series on Monday night.
Minor (8-4, 2.40 ERA) learned on Sunday that he was chosen to play in the All-Star Game on July 9 in Cleveland.
