Angels struggle to justify big winter moves in 1977 season
Boston opens with the Angels after Gene Autry spent 5.2 million on free agents Bobby Grich Joe Rudi and Don Baylor. After 24 games the club stands 15 and 16 last year at the same point. The offense shows improvement but pitching remains an issue with Nolan Ryan and Frank Tanana the only reliable starters. Manager Norm Sherry notes it takes time for new players to jell and for the staff to settle in, while trades are explored for Dave LaRoche Rudy May or Dyar Miller as the Angels chase a stronger season.
