Gameday Thread: Angels vs. Twins (7/21/15) No Trout or Pujols

What's great is that the team is playing well and is in 1st place and that's despite having Joyce on the team and getting AB's all season long. There is just no way this dude isn't DFA by the time the deadline passes

 

Angels know they need to find an upgrade in LF

[DMVol]

**** Joyce. Release his worthless ass and replace him with just about anyone from the minors.

Robertson appears to be the best internal option....but we need to give Joycey more time....

[laagamer]

Kicked the crap outta them. 

[Mark68]

Light it!

LTBU!! Another solid win.. Iannetta gooes deep. Shoemaker looked really good.

[Angel Oracle]

eh, Robertson isn't too bad. He's like a JB Shuck type player.

With Cron's resurgence, all we need is someone to play 2/3 to 3/4 of the time in LF and the rest as a backup DH. 

Robertson can handle the other 1/4 to 1/3 of the LF starts.

 

Enter resurgence of Nibs ($26 million salary through 2016) for Ethier ($41.5 million salary through 2017 plus $2.5 million buyout for 2018) trade talk?

Ideally, would be great if they could get 2 bats and another reliever for the 7th inning. 2 of 3 would be great, all 3 would be amazing

whats wrong with Gott?

I have a hard time relying on Cron; he's incredibly streaky, and we've all seen how cold his bat can get. I actually think CJ Wilson shouldn't be traded; SPs are in high demand right now, and CJ has been quite good this season—I don't think Eithier is good for this team with his high contract.

The team needs a player like Parra. I think he's the guy who takes this team to the next level.
