Pujols would have to go 0-for his next forty before Scioscia would move him down in the lineup. And Freese will be our 3b the rest of the season.

You mean 0 for every AB until he turns 40, right?

Oakland's manager would probably make changes.

Not sure how to get him in the lineup, because freese is here to stay, but id like to see green in the lineup for a decent few days clip, and to see him bat high in the lineup...like behind trout

I know it sounds silly because hes not by any stretch a moto hitter. But he seems to be a good contact hitter with good line drive / doubles approach. Assuming cowgill / trout hitting 1-2 with their high OBP and speed, I kind of like the idea about having a 1-2-3 duo that can scratch a run maybe 2-3 times a game over the current version of not running trout and pujols being..what hes been

That said, more than that im hoping hamilton comes back and is at least 75 percent of what he was

Houston ahould be a good series to get him back in

Is Green a quality defensive third base man? I'm guessing no ...

I think the only change I'd make now is benching Ibanez and using guys like Cron/Cowgill/Green at DH.

I'm firm in my belief that playing Ibanez is a group decision that includes Dipoto. You can't hang this on Scioscia alone.

Probably not, but we're currently playing Freese there, so we already know being able to play defense over there isn't mandatory for the Angels.

Was Grant Green drafted as a shortstop? It's obvious that 3rd base will have to be his position if he's gonna stay with us. No room in outfield and Howie and Aybar are here. He will have to work at getting better at 3rd.

Probably not, but we're currently playing Freese there so defense is clearly not priority #1 over there.

Freese is a experienced third baseman and it's too early in the season to give up on his bat. Green has been hot with the bat but I think he's hitting a little over his head right now.

There's no way that Green will start at 3B in the foreseeable future. In his short ML career, he's played only 3 innings at 3B.The Angels obviously don't have any confidence in him playing 3B. I wish that they would at least give him a chance to play 3B once or twice a week.

Come on, you don't think Green is a lifetime .361 hitter?

Freese has a bat to give up on? We'll we should keep playing Green until he proves that he is hitting a little over his head. Ride it out.
