MIke will still bat him 4th and play him in the playoffs.

Sporting news is trolling AW.com

Funny, but while his teammates were on the rail sweating out the action, he was busy sitting his azz down in the back.
While the mini rally was going on late, Albert was muttering something when he was about to bat .
Albert knew the rally was dead.

Yes, Please!!

Not taking salaries into account when forming a postseason roster?
 
Mike Scioscia's head just exploded.

BS.
Most managers would have left him out of the roster.

I say Cowgil would have caught that ball in the outfield and kept the runner on second base .
Not fall over after catching the ball.

You mean, Sosh penciled him in the line-up card 3 games in a row.

Von Hayes. What a bum.
I didn't dislike Guillen as much . He was a real intense player . It killed us when he was suspended before the playoffs.

another guy who is on the list -- and may hold the record for the most dis-liked Angels for the shortest time on / affiliated with team and fewest games played :
 
Jose Canesco -- who was a non-roster walk on for ST about what? ten years back now?
 
I think he was with the team about a week, maybe ten days, claimed he was hurt and couldn't play for a majority of the time he was in camp -- and then when he played I remember seeing him mis-play a ball in the OF -- after telling Sosh he 'was  hurt' and couldn't play for something like 4 days in a row (remember , this is a NON-ROSTER guy in Spring Training) -- Sosh and the Halos 'dis-invited him from camp' (he can't be really DFA'd because he's not really on the team in the first place).......Canseco didn't catch on with another team and has blamed Scioscia and the Angels ever since for 'bad mouthing him' and saying he was 'injured/ damaged goods' ---- this from a guy who said he couldn't play four days straight while he's trying to make the roster as  a non-roster invitee..........
 
another head case was Raul Mondesi who was actually on the Angels regular season 25 man roster for about ten days...........unlike Canseco, though, rather than making an  E in the OF, I remember Mondesi throwing a guy out at the plate for the Halos -- it was about the only good thing he did.......he think he may have gotten one hit and if he got 13 ABs for us (seemed like he was Halo for a week/ ten days at most) he struck out about 12 of those...........he then made some sort of MLB worker's comp type claim and I remember reading an article about MLB teams (Pittsburgh and Angels) convinced that Mondesi was gaming the worker' comp'/ disability angle.
 
too bad, too - because Mondesi was truly a five tool player when he first came up with the Dodgers -- he wound up being just a tool.

I was hoping he announced his retirement.

Right and in the 162 games he was 42-43 against teams over 500 and 57-21 vs teams under 500.
 
And really I am not judging him on just 3 games but his whole playoff record, which is far from stellar. 

First best record team getting swept by a wild card team in the ALDS.

We were swept by the Red Sox too ( another wild card team ) but, we did not have the best record.

I disagree, he tried bunting, but at the wrong times and with the guys. Bunting with Calhoun was idiotic, not bunting with Iannetta was also the wrong move. Bunting multiple times with Hamilton next. With the games so close moves such as those could be the difference between a win and a loss.

No but knowing the hitters are slumping, he sure didn't help them make it easier for them with his moves.

Let's not forget Baylor .
He goes too.

WE NEED A CLEANUP hitter .
Release Hambone .

No, we have a system and I complete all work assigned without any problems.
I'm low maintenance.
 
I bet you're guy who argues assignment and lawyers his way out of work all the time.

Remember when we had .300 hitters from 1 to 9, at one point ?Well, we still lost in the post season.

Because we're gonna stay put, do the same thing over and over again and expect better results.
