I know, HATE is a strong word but this guy... My cousin, the Cubs fan, was begging for the Cubs to sign him and of course I did nothing but tell him what a loser Josh was. Not shockingly, like any true (psycho) sports fan I jumped up and down when we signed him. Between his awful Spring and even worse season, his responses to the media are actually making me sick. He needs to stop living in the past because I truly don't care how many home runs he has unless they are in that days game in an Angels uniform. We've all heard that's he's a cancer and a problem and seem to be seeing it in live action right now. I honestly cannot stand him. As a person, I'm sure he's a nice guy but as a baseball player he is absolute crap right now and honestly seems to care very little if at all. Discuss.

I know the team and Trout's agent had some issues with his 2013 salary and it's nice to technically have "control" of the player before we have to lock him up long term or deal with arbitration but I would love to see the team make him an Angel for life sooner than later. A sign of good faith from the team this early could result in a (small) discount. What do we think the contract would be? 10 years, $260 million? Thoughts?

Still buzzing after last night's game. Man crush is in full effect for Trout.

When Madson, Burnett and Jepsen are all healthy. Not too bad with Frieri and possibly Richards/Williams.

We can assume, given how its gone and that he'll continue to age poorly, that it was probably not a smart move. All we can do is hope that he somewhat performs and leaves whence no longer can on his own terms.

I just bought Chris Iannetta's game worn jersey from Jackie Robinson day. I'll post pics tonight. I also have a few of his game used bats. The Pujols and Trout jerseys from the game sold for $9800 each. Iannetta's was $320 so I'm happy.

Get the novocaine ready.

Dude, that is awesome! Very jealous.

Hey guys, This would be my first visit to the event and I have some questions. 1. Is it open to non-season ticket holders? 2. How early should I get there for good spot in line if it starts at 9 am? Thinking of driving up from Vegas early that morning. Thanks!

As a Chargers fan, I was SHOCKED that Norv Turner and GM AJ Smith came back last year. I told my wife I hoped the team would just bomb so we could finally move on to a new regime. Horrible fan? Yes and no. I took a big step backwards at my last job because I needed a different type of experience which helped me land my new job. Whether its Scioscia, Butcher, Dipoto...whatever, change is needed. It's not just about this season, it's the fact that we continually miss the playoffs recently. Is it better to just continue the skid until a change. Hs to be made? I'd rather lost the next ten and make something happen later in the year than to be 12 games out at theAS Break with the same issues and no hope for the future.

Random thought, I feel like we should have a new thread titled "Could this be THE turnaround game of the season?"

I watch the games while I run at the gym, the anger makes me run harder for longer. Try it.

I'm having trouble accepting this season. My Chargers and UNLV Rebels had such bad seasons I felt like I really needed this baseball season and its driving me crazy to watch the train wreck thus far. I am throwing around a lot of blame but the point is, we are 4-9. At this point, right now, a pretty bad team. Things can change quick but right now, we aren't good from top to bottom.

That made me laugh hard.
