My Take
Patrick Sandoval is one of those pitchers you feel genuinely rooting for — a hometown California kid out of Mission Viejo who came up through the Angels system and quietly became one of their most reliable starters during some genuinely rough years for that franchise. What I love about him is how he competes: he's not lighting up radar guns with pure heat, he's a craftsman who works sequencers and keeps hitters off-balance. His mid-career stretch with the Angels showed real grit — putting up solid innings for a team that struggled to win games around him. Moving on to the Red Sox feels like a fresh chapter for a guy who's done his time in a tough situation and deserves a legitimate shot at a contender. Still young, still developing, and honestly underrated by the casual fan.
