Settling in as bottom-third hitter Mayfield will start at third base and bat eighth Sunday against the Athletics.

Impact Mayfield will fill a bottom-three spot in the lineup for the third straight contest, even though he's in the midst of a relative heater at the dish. He's recorded a double in each of his last three starts, driving in four runs and scoring twice over that stretch. Mayfield looks set to fill an everyday role at third base for the remainder of the season.

Swats grand slam Mayfield went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Monday's 8-7 win over the Yankees.

Impact Mayfield flipped a 2-1 deficit into a 5-2 lead with one swing of the bat after taking Corey Kluber yard in the fourth inning for a grand slam. Mayfield has nine homers in 43 games since being recalled by the Angels on July 6 but is slashing just .227/.281/.496 with 14 extra-base hits, 21 RBI, 16 runs scored, a steal and 7:31 BB:K. The 30-year-old likely had the biggest hit of his career Monday but has struggled to find success at the plate overall with limited action in the league since 2019.

Smashes two hits, homers Mayfield went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run as the Angels defeated the Padres, 10-2 on Saturday.

Impact Mayfield went yard in the third inning to give the Angels an early 3-0 lead and singled and scored in the sixth. The outing supplied the 30-year-old's first home run and multi-hit game since Aug. 6 and the infielder is now slashing .211/.259/.408 on the season.

AUGUST 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Remains on bench Mayfield will sit Friday against Cleveland.

Impact Mayfield had been the Angels' primary third baseman for most of the second half but now finds himself sitting for the second game in a row. His .212/.265/.401 slash line in 149 plate appearances this season hardly suggests he deserves an everyday role. Phil Gosselin will start at the hot corner in his absence.

AUGUST 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Thursday Mayfield isn't in the lineup Thursday against the Tigers, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Impact Mayfield started each of the last two games and went 1-for-6 with a run, an RBI and two walks. Phil Gosselin will take over at the hot corner and bat third.

AUGUST 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Takes seat Thursday Mayfield is not in Thursday's lineup against the Blue Jays.

Impact Mayfield was out of the lineup for the second game of the team's doubleheader Tuesday, but he has otherwise been a consistent presence in the lineup at third base. He went through a recent hot stretch where he slugged three home runs in four contests between Aug. 3 and Aug. 6. However, Mayfield has gone hitless across his last 14 plate appearances -- spanning four games. Phil Gosselin will take over at third base and bat fourth in Mayfield's place.

AUGUST 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Continues power surge Mayfield went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional RBI and a walk in a 4-3 extra-inning win over the Dodgers on Friday.

Impact Mayfield took Dodgers starter David Price deep with a solo shot in the sixth inning. After the Angels took a one-run lead in the 10th, he tacked on an insurance run with a single to right field. Mayfield has slammed three homers over his past four games, going 7-for-14 with five RBI over that span. Prior to the hot stretch, he was batting .187 with four homers over 91 at-bats.

AUGUST 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Goes yard again Mayfield went 3-for-3 with a solo home run and a double Wednesday against the Rangers.

Impact Mayfield tallied his first multi-hit game since July 17, a span of 15 games. However, he homered in his second consecutive contest and now has six on the season. Even so, Mayfield has just a .214/.245/.449 line across 104 plate appearances to this point in the campaign. With Anthony Rendon (hip) sidelined for the season, Mayfield should see plenty of playing time going forward.

AUGUST 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Slugs fifth homer Mayfield went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Tuesday against the Rangers.

Impact Mayfield logged his only hit of the game in the sixth inning, when he delivered his fifth home run of the season. All of his long balls have come in his last 16 starts, though he has only seven other total hits across 54 plate appearances in that span. Overall, Mayfield has maintained a .189/.222/.389 line across 101 plate appearances on the campaign.

AUGUST 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

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

Impact 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.

JULY 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Homers in consecutive games Mayfield went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-4 loss to Minnesota.

Impact The infielder's second-inning blast was the end of the Angels' offense Friday. For his part, Mayfield has seized an opportunity for some regular playing time. All three of his homers this season have come in his last five games, but he's still slashing only .183/.222/.367 with eight RBI and seven runs scored across 64 plate appearances.

JULY 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Belts three-run shot Mayfield went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Thursday's win over Minnesota.

Impact Mayfield smacked his second homer of the last four games with a three-run shot off Kenta Maeda in the fifth inning, and that would be all the offense the Angels would need to come away with the win. It's worth noting that this was Mayfield's second long ball of the year, and he's seeing the ball better of late with hits in three of his last four contests after an 0-for-12 slump in June and July that included him being released by the Mariners and claimed by the Angels off waivers.

Gets Tuesday off Mayfield is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Athletics.

Impact Luis Rengifo will get the nod at third base while Mayfield heads to the bench after a stretch of six consecutive starts. During that span, Mayfield went 3-for-16 with a solo home run, a double and two additional runs. He'll remain atop the depth chart while Anthony Rendon (hamstring) is on the shelf, but Mayfield's sickly .478 OPS for the season won't make him an appealing fantasy option outside of AL-only leagues.

JULY 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Homers, scores thrice in win Mayfield went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double, two additional runs scored and a walk in Saturday's 9-4 win over the Mariners.

Impact Mayfield homered off Yusei Kikuchi in the fourth inning to extend the Angels' lead. In addition, he added a double and a walk causing a lot of damage out of the nine hole. That was Mayfield's first MLB hit since June 6 and his first homer of the season. The 30-year-old is receiving more playing time with Anthony Rendon (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list; however, he is batting only .167 in 51 plate appearances.
