  1. The 2005 Houston Astros were 15 games under .500 on May 27th and made it to the World Series.

    I looked at the standings that year and they didn't start getting into it until about July. Pretty good for a World Series team that year.
  2. Pujols isn't going anywhere any time soon.  Odds are the only starter you get for Blanton is an equally bad pitcher who makes about the same unless you move him right before the deadline next year for pretty much nothing and that's only if the team is out of it.  Trading young players who are producing makes little or no sense because they aren't making much, they're under club control and you're banking on their backups to produce.  Teams with huge payrolls don't have a lot of options and what Boston did when they traded A. Gonzalez, Crawford, etc was a miracle.  I understand that fans are frustrated and deservedly so but when you hand out big contracts those players need to produce or you're pretty much screwed.  The Angels need to work with what they have, try to improve the farm system and look for bullpen arms.       

    yeah I kinda figured this will probably never happened but was just making a what if.
  3. You expect/want those changes to happen this year? The manager (HC, PC, HC) changes that you listed are unlikely to happen and they definitely won't happen this season. Why would anyone trade a ML starter for Blanton?? He's one of the worst starters in the ML.

    next year.

    Notes:

    Trade peter borujos for prospects or possibly a young third baseman.( no one over 28 years old)

    Release joe Blanton

    Trade hank conger for prospects

    This would only work if pujols walked off his contract
