  1. TEMPE, Ariz. – All evidence, including his salary, points to Jerome Williams having locked up a spot on the Angels roster. Don't try to convince Williams of that, though. "For me, every time I come here it's to try to make a team," Williams said.... View the full article
  2. Angels ace Jered Weaver walked away from extra millions in 2011 when he signed five-year, $85-million extension, a 'hometown discount.' He's not losing sleep over it.<br/><br/>TEMPE, Ariz. — The words "free agency" had barely left a reporter's mouth before Jered Weaver shot back.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/latimes/sports/baseball/mlb/angels/~4/iQ4MjVpvfWU" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article

  6. As long as he's in the Majors, Garrett Richards is down for whatever. He'll come out of the bullpen late in games to hold leads, he'll pitch multiple innings in mop-up duty as a long reliever or, in a perfect world, he'll work every five days as a starting pitcher. He just hopes the Angels pick one. View the full article
  7. By Ellen Bell, AngrelsWin.com Columnist -- I’m a creature of habit. I like traditions and rituals and history. Maybe that’s why I’m a baseball fan. So, when I make my annual trip to Tempe for Spring Training, I look for the familiar faces and places that remind me that even in a world full of constant change, some things still stay the same. There are rituals and reminders that welcome me back every year, letting me know that another season of Angels baseball is about to begin. Like saying hello to Casey, the poolside bartender at The Buttes, who makes a mean post-game margarita even if it’s 50 degrees and cloudy. There’s Joe, Bill and George, my super senior buddies on the Tempe Diablo Stadium crew who greet me with the hug and smile reserved for old friends. Trust me. If you’ve never seen George dressed as a leprechaun during the St. Patty’s Day game you haven’t lived. Then there’s Mark the Beer Guy, the iconic, 6’8” vendor whose booming, “Cold Beer Here!” can bring tears to my eyes. Incidentally, if you tip Mark, he’ll give you his latest “Mark the Beer Guy” trading card as a souvenir. According to his stats, he pours right. But I really know that spring has sprung when I’m sitting in the stands at about 9:30 in the morning, feet up and coffee in hand, watching the Angels run out onto the grass for the first time. 40 years may have passed since I saw my first ballgame, but the sight of players hitting the field always makes my stomach flip. It’s something that never changes. And it never gets old. What are your Spring Training Rituals? What experience makes you say, “baseball is back”?

  9. Long characterized as a future batting champ, second baseman Howie Kendrick has a .292 career average but has never finished in AL top 10. Can he break through? TEMPE, Ariz. — The breathless stories that tracked Howie Kendrick through the minor leagues and into the majors were all but required to refer to him as a future batting champion.

  10. TEMPE, Ariz. – Some of the best Josh Hamilton stories don't have anything to do with a four-homer night, a mammoth 549-foot blast into the Kern River, a World Series, Size 19 spikes, 26 tattoos, drugs, booze, whipped cream, Jesus Christ or even the... View the full article
  11. How much action will he get at first base? When will he play in one of the corner-outfield spots? How will he adjust to producing as a designated hitter? These are the new questions that Mark Trumbo faces heading into the 2013 season View the full article

  14. Guys, if you want the posting area to be less white space I'd have to pull in the borders which means more red (borders) and less posting area. The posting space is the same width as the one on our old forum btw...
  15. Ryan Madson can't exactly pinpoint a timetable for when he can finally progress past throwing off flat ground, navigate through a collection of bullpen sessions and actually start appearing in games again. For help, he conjures his memory. View the full article
  16. Conger is looking to establish himself as the No. 2 catcher behind Chris Iannetta. He hasn't been able to stick with the team before, and his window with the Angels could close. TEMPE, Ariz. -- The Angels are offering Hank Conger a plum opportunity to gain a foothold in the big leagues this season as a left-handed-hitting complement to starting catcher Chris Iannetta.
