Mayfield went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's 6-2 win over the Rockies.

He broke open a tight contest by taking German Marquez deep in the seventh inning, giving the Angels a 4-1 lead. Mayfield is thriving with regular playing time, slashing .333/.385/.917 over his last eight games with all four of his homers on the season. Anthony Rendon is making slow progress in his recovery from a hamstring injury, so Mayfield should remain the starter at third base for at least another couple weeks, and his recent power display does have a precedent -- he launched 26 homers in 100 games at Triple-A Round Rock in 2019.
