I'll be first to say it....

[Lou E Ville]

If we get Bourjos back, and put out an outfield of Trout/Bourjos/Calhoun every day with Hamilton at DH, and we trade off Aybar and Kendrick and bring up some exciting kids who are too green to be nervous, and Vargas and Hanson come back to form with no pressure and Blanton does well in long relief.....I'm really going to like this team going forward. Playoffs be damned. It will be good to see an Angels team having fun again.

[ELEVEN]

Can we bring back David Eckstein too?

[Lou E Ville]

No. Eckstein had the range of a rec league softball player with a beer in his right hand.

That was a very long sentence.

You know, for as much crap as people give David Eckstein, his mantle has the look of a Hall of Famer:

 

2-time World Series Champion (2002 Anaheim Angels, 2006 St. Louis Cardinals)
World Series MVP (2006)
2-time All-Star (2005, 2006)
Babe Ruth Award winner (2006)

 

Just sayin'.

My question is- How did he reach the mantle to put all those awards up there?

[Lou E Ville]

He threw the bat at it to get it up there.

Where does Trumbo play?

Where does Trumbo play?

He still has him at 1B.

[Troutstanding]

Of course. I thought he was referring to next year. My bad.

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

I don't have much confidence in Hanson turning it around. It wouldn't make me happier to have Hamilton at DH. It would be better for the team if he wasn't in the lineup.
