   If trading Mike Trout could bring you three upgrades in the lineup and a starter, would you do it? The Dallas Cowboys traded their one marquee player and it won them three Super Bowls, basically. Trade partner: A team like the Mets, desperate for a superstar to escape the Yankees' shadow, or the Phillies or even Orioles? I love Trout. He's only played a year and a half and he's already my all-time favorite Angel. But would you rather be the Twins that won two World Series in the late 80s/early 90s, or the Joe Mauer Twins, selling lots of merchandise of that one player but not winning anything? Just starting the conversation, since this season isn't going a…

   Because you just can't get enough and we all need something to perk ourselves up with. His projected numbers for 2013, in 160 games played: .324/.400/.564 206 hits 46 2b, 13, 3b, 27 HR 103 RBI, 108 Runs 78-127 walks-strikeouts 35-6 SB Not bad, eh? Now of course he's unlikely to actually play 160 games - he'll probably sit in September, once the Angels are mathematically eliminated. And we don't know whether he'll continue gradually improving or tire like he did last year. My guess is that he continues to go up a bit more and then falls a bit, and finishes with something like: 155 games - .320/.400/.550; 40 2b, 10 3b, 25 HR; 100 RBI, 100 Runs; 75 walks, …

   That's right!! Pujols is 15 homeruns away from 500. I say keep him in the lineup until he get's to 500 then shut him down!! and let him start to heal.

   The Rays have a far superior pitching staff than the Angels so for that reason underperforming is unacceptable and the sole responsibility of Joe Maddon. He should be fired, after all they failed to make the playoffs last season and can't afford to continue losing like this. I am sure we are all in agreement.

    is very annoying and the type of player we need on our roster. Good defense, good baserunning, very good baseball IQ. He doesn't do a lot of stupid things. And, although his stats don't really paint him as a valuable player, I think the whole package and what he brings to the team more than makes up for it.

    For all of you attending our August 17th Summer Fanfest tailgater under the Big A, vote on where you'd like to sit. I'm always up for a suite, so that's my first vote. But we need at least 18 to get the smallest option suite (I believe, I'll check into this on Monday). If not, we can get a bunch of seats together somewhere or just fly solo. Vote ASAP. Thanks!

    Season: .259/.331/.440, 17 HR, 117 OPS+ 2nd half (7 games): .379/.419/.586, 2 HR BA last 14 games: .352 (19-54) Obviously those season numbers are well below what we'd like to see at this point, but his recent performance is encouraging. If he keeps this up he could finish the year around .280 with an OPS of .800+ and 25+ HR. Not great numbers but not an absolute train-wreck.
