Fresh off a dramatic homestand, the Los Angeles Angels pack their bags for a three-game road series against the Cincinnati Reds, starting Friday. It's a classic interleague clash with plenty of storylines to follow.

The Angels, sitting at 6-7, are looking to regain momentum after splitting their last six games and dropping two straight to Atlanta. All eyes will be on slugger Jorge Soler, who is appealing a seven-game suspension. His power bat, evidenced by homers in consecutive games, will be crucial if he's in the lineup.

On the mound, the Angels are rolling out an all-righty rotation, a strategic move against a Reds lineup that has struggled against right-handed pitching this season. Jack Kochanowicz gets the ball Friday, followed by rookie George Klassen on Saturday. The series finale features José Soriano, who is off to a historic start, drawing comparisons to Johnny Cueto's 2018 campaign with his dominant strikeout numbers.

Offensively, the Angels need Mike Trout to find his rhythm after a slow start, but they're getting a major boost from Jo Adell. The right fielder is scorching hot, coming off a series where he recorded multiple hits in every game.

They'll face a Reds team (8-5) that started strong but is looking to rebound after losing their last two games to Miami. While their offense has shown flashes, Cincinnati's early success has been anchored by its pitching staff.

This series promises to be a test of resilience for both clubs. Can the Angels' right-handed pitchers silence the Reds' bats? Will Soler's power and Adell's hot streak travel? Tune in this weekend to find out.
