Where's Kole?

[Robrock30]

Good catch!

Kole Calhoun is not in Monday's lineup against the Rangers.

Kole is a brand-new daddy.

[tomsred]

Congrats Kole!  

[eligrba4ever]

GO ANGELS!!! Go Jhoulys Chacin!!!

Take some meaningless vengeance in the Metroplex before Los Rangeros go on to their postseason rewards.

Go for a sweep while Texas is distracted by the 1-1 Cowboys and their shiny new QB. A dubya tonight makes it three straight.

Go Albert!! Still going for 600 before the offseason break!!!

Go Trout, CJ, Zero and Simba!!! Keep the ball rolling!!!

And a Big Red Welcome to the world to the newest Calhoun!!!

We've been wondering where is bat was for the last couple Months.

What was the reason Escobar changed from #6 to #0?

He was trying to change his number to reflect his average for September but .171 wasn't available per the clubhouse manager...

Well, there's also that. Kole's weak week helped contribute to the early end of my fantasy season. Although the Pittsburgh pitcher's trip to the DL instead of his scheduled 2-start week probably mattered more. He was scratched too late for me to substitute for him.

Jeez, a freaking .697 OPS in the second half. 

[Angel Oracle]

That won't get it done.

It doesn't but Sean Rodriguez sighting.

Lets Go Halos!

A player from each one of his favorite teams?

 

[totdprods]

S-Rod is a free agent this offseason, and of course, having his best season.

In about 300 PAs, .265/.348/.523/.871 and a 129 OPS+, 17 HRs, 51 RBIs, 1.7 WAR, playing everywhere but pitcher and catcher.

Not really on my radar - he's better off landing a bench job with a contender - but his versatility is appealing given the number of holes we have.

Jesus..Chacin hit by a batted ball!

He's was hit somewhere around the shin

[Troll Daddy]

Another one bites the dust

[Angels#1Fan]

Looks like Chacin is going to stay in the game.

I'll bet that swells up between innings.

Fighting for a 2017 contract.....

[NachoPop]

Hope they do bring Chacin back, providing the contract is reasonable of course. He'd be good depth with GRich returning from injury, Meyer also and being a rookie, etc.

[Blarg]

Odor looks like he owns a pressure cooker.

Meyer will be a 27 year old rookie, that's a year older than Donaldson's rookie season.
