The Dude

Conger really is gonna be Napoli 2.0.  Solid bat with HR power, and he'll get beat out by Snyder. 

Wont be long until they deal him for a declining vet with a bloated contract. 

Lets hope Butcher shuts down the Ranger lineup for the rest of the game.

Runs on the board! They care again?

I'm going to laugh when the Angels start the year with a 15 game winning streak.

I get a feeling that still wouldn't stop some from finding something to gripe about.

That was always my favorite quote from the movie.  Don't know why but "the whole brevity thing" cracks me up.

Same here. I jumped at the opportunity to bust it out.

I don't like to see posters get banned, but i understand  why it was done. He sure had a lot of passion for the team can't fault him for that.

But, but.... YOU'RE the Dude, man...

That, or His Dudeness … Duder … or El Duderino, if, you know, you're not into the whole brevity thing.

MS sucks at hitting with RISP.

He's batting 1.000 with MIEP (Meals in Eating Postion).

It's not ridiculous. We saw last year the Angels were very talented and the pitching sucked (Butcher) and we saw a lot of mistakes on the bases (Scioscia). Also a lot of inconcsistent batting lineups in April with Wells and Abreu playing over Trumbo

I don't recall seeing Butcher on the mound or Sosh running the bases. These are professional ballplayers they should know what the f*** to do, they don't need the coaches holding their hand every step of the way. I understand your frustrations, but dude do you ever get sick of bitching?

Maybe this one shouldn't have been televised. Don't know about anyone else but i've found it pretty hard to get into most of the games this spring. The pitching has been god awful. Hopefully they shake it off for the reg seas.

Thanks for heads up guys. Flipped it on just in time to catch the excellent baserunning display from Albert.

Tonight's line-up=Sick. Sure wish this one was televised.

I thought this would be old by now but it isn't.  Bring on more Mota-isms in 2013!

I also felt this way, until I read this gem:

"It's been a different one, so into your planning, tell me what went (pause) when you saw the big roster and you saw all the pitchers coming in, some guys who needed to leave into comparing to other spring trainings."

God bless Jose for trying, but Its a good thing Langston is taking over this year. Jose and Terry don't seem to have much chemistry together... those constant akward silences coupled with the fake laughs from Terry when he can't make sense of something Mota said are just brutal. 

I sure hope this doesn't carry over into the regular season for a "It's still early" thread.

Hanson doesn't seem to be improving at all....lets hope it doesn't get much worse.

That catch was Ersty like!

Agreed. That was a sick catch.

That was an interesting read, kind of surprised that I got through whole thing. 

We all know the weight issue is the reason behind the low ball offer.

But seriously, I see this as a non-issue. Like others have said Trout we get his soon enough.

Also want to give a shout out to all the overreactive posters here at Angelswin, you guys really take it to a "Ho Notha Levo".

Dude here...

Trout: .325/.402/.564

Pujols: .305/.394/.564

Hambone: .289/.356/.540

 

That would be amazing.

Not bad for a 36 year old.

Mind if I J in here?

Riverside, CA

Looks great! I'm really diggin' the new look/features.
