OC Register: Kole Calhoun enters what could be the final week of his Angels career

[Pancake Bear]

Calhoun isn’t stupid. Why would he sign a one year deal, knowing he’d be traded mid season? Why not choose where he’ll play instead? 

Last year, you dopes wanted him cut. Now you can’t stand to let him go. He’s gone. Get over it.

Haha  you guys are dopes

I'm not into bat flips.

I can flip a bat. Everyone with functioning arms can flip a bat. Probably some without functioning arms can do it.

I'm into Kole Calhoun. Liked him since he was on the 66ers

Can this guy flip a bat?

Last Thursday night I was at the game, Calhoun was at bat and the entire left side of the infield was wide open. He still played the game of over the line and grounded out to the 2nd baseman playing in short right field. 

I will not miss that part of his one dimensional hitting game at all.

I was at a game where Trout struck out 3 times.  When he retires I won’t miss that part of his game.

"whatever may happen, I'll always feel like an Angel for life"...       Sounds like a situation where if both parties want to make it work, they can.

Alex Curry though.

Not even his own

I think they should bring him back. Decline his option and tell him to go out looking on the free agent market for a deal that will make him happy. If he doesn't find it tell him to call back and Eppler can give him a one year contract for ~$3 mil in a lesser role. 

He is a useful enough player that it's hard for me to imagine him not finding a way to contribute, it's just a matter of cost. As an insurance policy on Joe Adell and the health of Justin Upton not to mention maybe some reps at first base, he could see some important ABs. After all he's one of the few players who managed to stay in the lineup this year.
