   This really is absolutely demoralizing to watch. I knew it was coming, but when Beltre launched that ball to the moon I was still left sitting there silently starring at the TV. I'm in absolute disbelief the way this is going down. Is this how Boston felt in 2011? Is this worse? Who knows..

   Angels Classic Rewind | Dateline: July 30th - 31st, 2002

   By Joe Haakenson, AngelsWin.com Contributor - JULY 31, 2002 GAME 106 - RED SOX AT ANGELS ANAHEIM -- Trying to hit Boston Red Sox pitcher Tim Wakefield's knuckleball, the Angels hitters looked like they were trying to hit a butterfly with a pencil. And coming one night after trying -- and failing -- to hit the hard-throwing Pedro Martinez could not have helped their cause, either. In fact, when Scott Spiezio doubled with one out in the fifth inning Tuesday, it marked the first time the Angels had moved a baserunner as far as second base in 14 innings, going back to the series opener on Monday. The Angels managed a run on Troy Glaus' eighth-inning home run, but it…

    Good evening my fellow Halo fans. I'd like to welcome you all here. Make yourselves comfortable. We have 2 reliable starting pitchers, an arson squad bullpen, high payroll with lots of players on decline, lots of players who are poor situational hitters, no farm system, a stubborn manager, a GM that operates as if he's in a Fantasy baseball league, and an owner who seems more interested in business instead of putting together a winning baseball team. Did I miss anything?

    Blowing up the team

    • 599 views

    Getting Grant Green and Cory Rasmus is a step in the right direction. But, I don't think it's enough. Barring the entire team playing above their heads, I don't see how this team contends in 2014. Every area (line-up, starting pitching, bullpen, defense, farm system) needs significant improvement. Unfortunately, the contract structures of the many of the key players prohibit a Red Sox style detonation. And, not to mention, blowing up the team requires a commitment to the process. The team would have to let go of some good players, that I really like (Vargas, Kendrick, Aybar, Trumbo, Frieri, etc.) in order to build up the farm system. And, we would have to cringe and…

    Post all updates in here to make it easier for everyone to get info. @Alden_Gonzalez: Hear #Angels' chances of making another deal before Deadline now "better than 50/50." Lotsa interest. "Vultures are circling," source said. @Ken_Rosenthal: Source: #Royals on H. Kendrick’s no-trade list. Kendrick can block trades to 12 teams this season, per Cot’s Baseball Contracts. #Angels. @Ken_Rosenthal: #Angels’ preference is to use Kendrick to get starting pitcher. Aybar also in play, but easier to replace a second baseman than a shortstop.

    As far as I can tell Dipoto has not made one good move for the long term benefit of this organization. He has made several poor moves, but not one good one. The draft may have been good, so that is a plus. Green may pan out, but that move was just made. I think 2014 should be his very last chance to improve the long term prospects of this team. Personally, I would have already fired him.

    A thought on Trumbo

    • 1.1k views

    Although I've been vocal about trading Trumbo, I can't help but feel that at some point soon - maybe next year or the next - something is going to click for him and he's going to go from a .250/.780, 30 HR hitter, to a .280/.850+, 35 HR hitter. I know he's already 27, but it just seems like he needs more time to mature into his peak, which will be more like age 28-32. Who knows, of course, its just an inkling I have. Maybe the Angels have the same inkling and are thus hesitant to trade him.
