Angels: Kendrick's added focus
Howie Kendrick now has more reason to be focused for the upcoming season after an event that took place earlier this month.
Kendrick was married on Jan. 6. While the union won't directly affect Kendrick on the field, being the provider for somebody else sometimes sparks an even deeper focus and desire for success.
It isn't like Kendrick looked like a guy who needed an additional spark. During his stint with the Angels last year, he seemed mature and focused beyond his years. The most promising aspect of Kendrick's off-field demeanor last season was the fact that he didn't pout, become depressed or start to press when he faced adversity.
Marriage might be an additional positive as it adds to his maturity level.
