Scioscia enjoying luxury of two lefty relievers

ARLINGTON -- Lefty reliever Cesar Ramos has been shocked by the opposing lineup cards he's seen in his first year with the Angels.

"I felt like in the [American League] East there were a lot of big lefties," Ramos, formerly of the Rays, said, "but now I feel like they're all in the West."

Seven days ago the Angels' four AL West rivals -- the Astros, Mariners, A's and Rangers -- trotted out a combined 17 left-handed hitters in their Opening Day lineups. On Monday night, during the Angels' 6-3 win at Globe Life Park, the Rangers carried six.
