Oct. 26 11:16 AM PT12:16 PM MT1:16 PM CT2:16 PM ET7:16 PM GMT3:16 AM 北京时间-Saunders gave up three runs over 3 1-3 innings Sunday in a 5-2 loss to the Yankees.
Analysis: Fantasy owners watched Saunders go 0-1 with a 5.40 ERA in three playoff starts. Saunders won 16 games but those fantasy players gearing up for the 2010 season have to be a bit concerned with him.
Sep. 28 3:15 PM PT4:15 PM MT5:15 PM CT6:15 PM ET11:15 PM GMT7:15 AM 北京时间-Saunders (15-7) pitched six scoreless innings for Los Angeles before falling apart in the seventh of Sunday's 7-4 win over Oakland.

Sep. 22 2:57 PM PT3:57 PM MT4:57 PM CT5:57 PM ET10:57 PM GMT6:57 AM 北京时间-Saunders pitched into the ninth inning and the Los Angeles Angels prevented New York from wrapping up a playoff spot, winning 5-2 in a matchup of division leaders.
Analysis: Saunders (14-7) gave up two runs and seven hits in 8 1-3 innings, struck out three and walked none in winning his fifth consecutive decision and sixth in his last seven. After the first inning, the left-hander didn't allow a runner past second until Alex Rodriguez homered leading off the seventh.
Sep. 17 2:43 PM PT3:43 PM MT4:43 PM CT5:43 PM ET10:43 PM GMT6:43 AM 北京时间-Saunders did not receive a decision in Wednesday's 9-8 loss to Boston. He allowed five runs and eight hits in 5 2-3 innings.

Aug. 27 2:15 PM PT3:15 PM MT4:15 PM CT5:15 PM ET10:15 PM GMT6:15 AM 北京时间-Saunders pitched five effective innings in his return to the rotation and Los Angeles snapped its three-game skid with a 4-2 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday.
Analysis: Saunders (10-7) was cool in the 97-degree Orange County heat while making his first start since Aug. 7, after which he went on the disabled list. The left-hander had struggled for over a month before his DL stint, but the Angels' opening day starter allowed four hits while striking out six.
Aug. 26 1:21 PM PT2:21 PM MT3:21 PM CT4:21 PM ET9:21 PM GMT5:21 AM 北京时间-Manager Mike Scioscia said Saunders, out since Aug. 8 with a sore shoulder, will throw a bullpen session Monday and could rejoin the rotation Wednesday against Detroit.

Jul. 28 9:58 AM PT10:58 AM MT11:58 AM CT12:58 PM ET5:58 PM GMT1:58 AM 北京时间-Saunders struggled through yet another outing as he allowed four runs and 10 hits over five innings, but he did not factor in the decision during an 8-6 loss to visiting Cleveland.
Analysis: Since his last win June 24 against Colorado, Saunders (8-6, 5.02 ERA) is 0-2 with a 9.39 ERA over his last six starts, and his next start will likely be Sunday against Minnesota. After winning his first two career starts over the Twins - both on the road, he gave up six runs over 5 1-3 innings on Aug. 22 in a loss in Anaheim.
Jul. 6 3:31 PM PT4:31 PM MT5:31 PM CT6:31 PM ET11:31 PM GMT7:31 AM 北京时间-Saunders labored through 5 1-3 innings against Baltimore on Sunday, giving up six runs -- five earned -- in a 9-6 victory.

Jun. 14 2:25 PM PT3:25 PM MT4:25 PM CT5:25 PM ET10:25 PM GMT6:25 AM 北京时间-Saunders came within two outs of his third career complete game and second this season, allowing a run and eight hits in the Angels' 9-1 win over the Padres on Saturday.
Analysis: Saunders hadn't been great in his last few starts, but this is what the Angels expect to see out of him on a regular basis.
Jun. 8 10:13 AM PT11:13 AM MT12:13 PM CT1:13 PM ET6:13 PM GMT2:13 AM 北京时间-Saunders gave up four runs and six hits over seven innings Sunday and did not get a decision in a 9-6 loss at Detroit.
Analysis: Saunders did not have good command with five walks. He is 0-2 with a 6.50 ERA in his last three starts.
Jun. 3 10:58 AM PT11:58 AM MT12:58 PM CT1:58 PM ET6:58 PM GMT2:58 AM 北京时间-Saunders, who has lost three of his past four starts, allowed six runs and nine hits in 5 1-3 innings of a 6-4 loss to the Blue Jays on Tuesday.
Analysis: Saunders acknowledged feeling "tentative" about facing Toronto ace Roy Halladay, but this is the same pitcher who outdueled the red-hot Zack Greinke of Kansas City for a 1-0 win last month. Clearly there are other problems, since he now has a 5.92 ERA in his last four starts.
May 27 3:20 PM PT4:20 PM MT5:20 PM CT6:20 PM ET11:20 PM GMT7:20 AM 北京时间-Saunders suffered his second loss in the last six starts by giving up three runs over 6 2-3 innings.
Analysis: Saunders (6-3, 3.26 ERA) was 4-1 with a 2.91 ERA in his previous five starts. He will likely start next in Toronto on Tuesday night. Saunders is 1-2 with a 3.62 ERA in four career starts against the Blue Jays.
May 22 1:36 PM PT2:36 PM MT3:36 PM CT4:36 PM ET9:36 PM GMT5:36 AM 北京时间-Saunders allowed four hits in seven innings of the Angels' 3-0 win over Seattle on Thursday.
Analysis: Saunders bounced back from his worst start of the season with another solid effort. Aside from a three-home-run hiccup last week against Texas, Saunders has been mostly effective this year.
May 10 10:07 AM PT11:07 AM MT12:07 PM CT1:07 PM ET6:07 PM GMT2:07 AM 北京时间-Saunders bested red-hot Royals right-hander Zack Greinke, tossing a five-hitter to lead the Angels to a 1-0 victory on Saturday night.
Analysis: It was the first career shutout for Saunders, who struck out six and walked one after clearly getting dialed up to face the dominating Greinke. With the pressure on this season due to the Angels' injury bug, Saunders has been solid, with his ERA shrinking to 2.66 along with a 5-1 record.
May 5 10:08 AM PT11:08 AM MT12:08 PM CT1:08 PM ET6:08 PM GMT2:08 AM 北京时间-Saunders allowed two runs over 6 2-3 innings Monday to beat the A's 5-2.
Analysis: Saunders has been the glue to an injury-plagued pitching staff. "I knew I needed to go out there and throw some innings," Saunders said. "When some guys go down, other guys need to step up. When they come back, we're going to play more consistent, better baseball."
Apr. 29 12:42 PM PT1:42 PM MT2:42 PM CT3:42 PM ET8:42 PM GMT4:42 AM 北京时间-Saunders allowed two earned runs over six innings of a win against Baltimore on Tuesday.
