@Ken_Rosenthal1h #Athletics not optimistic about keeping Colon. Exploring other options, as they did when they pursued Hudson, who went to #SFGiants instead. Could the Angels be on the verge of signing the 40 year old right hander?

Who? Seriously, I was looking up some stats on som other guys and found this dude tucked away on the Brewers roster Doesn't throw hard by any stretch, but misses bats, and doesn't walk guys. 30yo in his second year of arb.

That Kendrick for Lee and Withrow deal looks awfully good right now. This could be the one (non) move that ruins the offseason. So thanks again, for committing your 3rd huge mistake in the last 2 years. Stay out of it. Not that I trust Dipoto much more but Arte needs to back way off. If Williams or Blanton are anywhere near the #5 spot in the rotation I'm going to puke.

Here are some of my notes from today's press conference with Joe Smith and Jerry Dipoto: Joe Smith is happy to be here. His girlfriend works out here. The biggest factor for him signing with the Angels was the inclusion of a third year and the chance to play near his girlfriend. Jerry Dipoto targeted him early and made an early offer. Other teams were interested, but the Angels were made solid offers early on that made the decision easier. For Dipoto, getting Smith, who throws side-arm was an important factor to give the bullpen a different look. Smith throws 89-92, which Dipoto believes will pair up well with the young power arms in the pen. Dipoto is not…

With two starting pitchers still needed, and a payroll that's already dangerously close to the luxury-tax threshold, Monday's non-tender deadline is far more than a formality for the Angels. It's an opportunity to add about $10 million to their budget. View the full article

Streaky hitter but when he's on he's on. He's got some pop and his contract is extremely reasonable. I understand you gotta give up value to get something of value back but I think Kendrick's play would be sorely missed. Maybe the Angels should just tender Jerome and run Hanson and Blanton out there. If not for the slow start the Angels would've been a contender for a wc spot and then anything is possible.

http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2013/12/angels-will-tender-contract-to-kevin-jepsen.html On today's conference call to introduce free agent signee Joe Smith, Angels GM Jerry Dipoto told reporters, including MLB.com's Alden Gonzalez, that right-hander Kevin Jepsen will be tendered a contract for the 2014 season (Twitter link). Dipoto said he "[n]ever thought it would be an assumption he wouldn't be (tendered)."

Holy smokes, watching these average (at best) SP rake it in really bumps his price up. Hope you have a backup plan JD. Blanton and Jerome will not be part of a playoff rotation. They will have a nice game here and there but overall kill the bullpen when they get routinely shelled by the 5th inning. Last year Blanton had 9/20 starts not go more than 5 innings and Jerome had a stretch of 5 starts where he pitched a total of 18 innings. (I like Jerome, but as a swing guy for insurance, not a consistent starter.)

At least what I am guessing what it is. I believe they are going "all in" on Tanaka (think that is his spelling). I believe Dipoto has tested the market; however, the other teams know we are desperate for pitching so they are trying to low ball on everyone. It worked for the Bourjos-Grichulk/Freese trade. However, Bourjos was expendable because of our glut of outfielders. Right now trading anyone else would weaken the team greatly. By pursuing Tanaka, the Angels will get a mid to top of the order pitcher who would be young and under club control. He is more desirable than current free agent because of his age. By winning the Tanaka sweepstakes, the Angels woul…

Hypothetically, of course, as it seems less likely now that Bourjos is gone. Is it a rotation of different players - Conger, Hamilton, Pujols, and Calhoun? Or would the Angels hope that Cron could help sooner than later?

December 2nd is the Tender deadline. We should get a clearer view of who's staying and who's not going to be tendered by this date. Already, the Pirates and the Padres seem to be busy trading players that they otherwise wouldn't tender. For the Angels, these seem to be non tender candidates. Hanson $3.9 million Williams $3.9 million Jepsen $1.4 million Gutierrez $1.1 million Nelson $1 million Total $11.3 million I still think Williams is going to be kept, because he can start in an emergency, and his relief numbers were pretty good last year. IMO, Williams has more problems when it's the second/third time through the order. Which for a reliever i…

Saw these tidbits on MLBTradeRumors. Cafardo On Samardzija, Price, Kemp, Pierzynski Sounds like they are asking for the moon. For the Angels, I don't even thing a Callhoun, Cron, Lindsey, Moronde would get them to the table. If that's the case for Kemp, shouldn't the Angels at least see if there is interest in Hamilton? Hamilton has 4/$98 left on his contract. If the market is opening up for Kemp at 6/$80-90 which is $13-$15 a year, why not Hamilton at $15 a year? 2013 Kemp .270/.328/.395/.723/0.5 WAR Hamilton .250/.307/.432/.739/1.5 WAR Career Kemp .293/.350/.493//843 Hamilton .295/.354/.530/.884 Kemp 3 years removed from a high …

fWAR ranks by year: Last year: 12th (6.0) Last two years: 4th (13.7) Last three years: 4th (19.1) Last four years: 2nd (25.4) Last five years: 5th (29.4) Last six years: 12th (29.6) Last seven years: 8th (34.4) Last eight years: 9th (36.9) Let me clarify before proceeding. I am not suggesting that the Angels should go after Cano - I really hope they don't. But I am reminding us that he's one of the very best players in baseball, and has been for eight years. But what about 2013? He was "only" 12th - isn't he in decline? And in 2011 he was 22nd in fWAR...isn't he overrated? Nope, not yet at least. Cano had his best year (by fWAR) in 2012, with a 7.7,…

I think if we did sign a good guy we could backload it so wells is off the books I know we are going to need money for trout and Trombone if we don't trade him. I would only move mark if Price is in it I like are chances if Jerry really wants it we are built for now so we can give the rays proven mlb players not guys in the minors plus they get him for what 3 years and one of the best power hitters. But like Garza pay him 8 first year and whatever next. I really think Arte won't let 10-15 mil from really going for it. Prof Josh signing and Weaver is not getting younger. Get Price and just go for it. I really don't want to move Howie now Aybar I have no prob. My pipe drea…

How bad is he? He hit .179 last year but still hit 22 bombs. Is it bad luck, or does the guy just suck now? Hopefully someone that can read advanced stats can fill me in. Also how is he defensively?

This would be our 2014 Angels (or something like it): Lineup RF Calhoun CF Trout 1B Pujols LF Hamilton DH Trumbo 3B Freese 2B Kendrick C Conger SS Aybar Bench - Shuck, Iannetta, Romine, Green Rotation Weaver Wilson Tanaka Garza Richards Bullpen Wilson Frieri Smith Burnett de la Rosa Salas Kohn Of course money is an issue and more realistically we'll only get one of Tanaka/Garza, or perhaps someone else, and see Howie Kendrick traded for another starter, and not see Wilson signed. So realistically we'll see something like this: Lineup RF Calhoun CF Trout 1B Pujols LF Hamilton DH Trumbo 3B Freese 2B Green C Conger SS Ayb…

Why not take a flyer on Roy Halladay with a one year contract at the minimum salary with several incentives (starts, wins, innings, etc.) and a club option for a second year? I have heard zero rumors about any interest in him at all. If he can be 75% of the pitcher he was just 3 years ago we would have a darn good #3 starter. If he stinks like last year its $2 mil down the drain. I'd say thats a good risk reward gamble...
