D-Train coming to Anaheim?

[Angel Oracle]

Dipoto is simply comical the past few days.

[Docwaukee]

There isn't one player on the halos aaa team that could be considered a legit prospect with potential to stick in the majors except green and rasmus. Two guys obtained about a week ago. I'm all for throwing shit at the wall to see if it sticks. If even one of these twenty reclamation projects pans out, it's better than where they would have been.

Does this mean that Julio Franco is next?   He's only in his mid 50s.

[Homebrewer]

My letter came today. I will be heading to SLC tomorrow.

Check the wires, should be reported soon.

Tony Phillips, 54, worked out for #Rangers MGR Ron Washington in Angel Stadium today. Tony hopes to play winter ball in Dominican Republic.

[Count Orlok]

Let's see how many all stars from the middle of the last decade the team can pick up.

Did anyone happen to check out what was happening at the Ivanhoe Inn last night?

[shellback]

Dipoto is being paid by the number of acquisitions. Isn't this normally the MO of a GM who is in over his head?

 

piece work!!

[m0nkey]

It's like you geniuses think that instead of getting Kershaw and Cabrera, dipoto signed willis and marte. This wouldn't be a story if these guys career minor league scrubs. They weren't signed to be the saviors of the team. You dipoto haters are trying too hard

Or are they not trying hard ENOUGH?  Hmmm...

I have noticed that the most vocal anti Dipoto posters, are also the most vocal pro- Scioscia posters.

Can't be Scioscia and his coaches, so it must be that guy Dipoto, right?

No offense, but that is a crock of sh**

I don't think that's true. I don't support either one. Name someone that falls into that category? At this point is there really a vocal pro-Scioscia group?

 You are right. Most people have come around and now see Scioscia in a realistic way. Took a long time, but it has finally happened.

Better?

Basically, the mods.

14 years is long enough.

[shellback]

20 yr extension for the entire on the field staff

[Scott34]

Ummm he's actually looking really good right now.

[tdawg87]

He couldn't be worse than the other crap we have coming out of the pen.

[Angel Oracle]

What is Willis doing? Not that it will last

[Scott34]

6 shutout innings with just 1 walk. Worked in the high 80s with a surprisingly decent slider.

[bloodbrother]

Sounds like a solid addition to the Bees for the playoff run

bingo...who knew the Angels GM's primary focus this time of year was the Bees playoff run

[disarcina]

I say bring Dontrelle up Sept. 1 -- may sell some tickets at Anaheim and put a few more fans in the seats which will be needed (right now we're looking at a lot of empty seats at the ballyard the rest of the season).

 

And, after watching Blanton's masterful performance tonight against the Yankees -- in all honesty -- could Dontrelle do any worse?

[kevinb]

Who would pay to watch Dontrelle? This entire coaching staff, general manager, scouts, team doctors etc should be fired and they should hire a whole new organization. Heck even trade and cut every major leaguer on this team but Trout and start fresh
