#Angels lineup: Calhoun RF, Trout CF, Pujols 1B, Hamilton LF, Freese 3B, Ibanez DH, Kendrick 2B, Iannetta C, Aybar SS; Wilson SP #Royals

 

Gotta love the consistent lineup against righties! 

 

With Kendrick a near .300 BA over his career, Iannetta with a good OBP and Aybar improving his ability to get on base (leads all Angels with 8 walks this spring), can you imagine the RBI possibilities for Calhoun and Trout at the 1-2 spots. 

 

OM NOM NOM!

Official SICK LINEUP

[disarcina]

Halos are going to rock the ball this year........

 

Pujols should really see some good pitches this year..........they won't be able to pitch around him with a guy named Trout in the line up.

 

at ST, it's amazing really how quickly that Trout has become the best player in MLB......

 

for those who remember the Ken Griffey Jr. years with Seattle and the ST scene around him........well, Trout's generating that kind of interest and that's with a guy named Pujols in the same dug out.

 

amazing really.

CJ had to throw 5 strikes to the first batter.  Not exactly the kinda strikezone you want with him on the mound.

That ump is an asshole.  He's trying to get someone warning points by making it seem like a certain guy is nibbling.

Won't work blue, I'm not falling for your attempt to goad me into warning points.

Watching Freese play defense makes me long for Grant Green's defense at 2B.

Yeahhh, he hasn't looked great thus far.

[Angel Oracle]

Gotta hope that Griffin can get through to Freese as the season progresses.

FREESE RBI 1B

Billy Butler makes me appreciate David Freese's defense.

[markb]

Good lord these umps.  3 blatantly wrong calls in less than 2 full innings.
