Offense has been the problem for a number of recent seasons. Last free agent that hit up to career norms or better that was signed by the Angels? Abreu? Matsui? Quite a long time ago.

On a good team, Gentry would be a short leash.

On a good team Gentry doesn't play. On the Angels when facing a left hander, he potentially gets more at bats than Trout.

Well this team is what it is and no amout of halo kool-aid will change that. I mean old man Ross has hit the ball harder than any angel player this year.

Here's your 4 run lead. Thanks. I'll walk the first hitter of the inning on 4 pitches.

10 spot! Bend over! They don't deserve to make the playoffs. And frankly there's no hope in sight. Next year is just going to be a bunch of the same.

If you didn't watch the Angels all season, you must think this team is one of the worst in baseball, not one fighting for a playoff spot.

I see Texas putting up a 10 spot this inning.

Why not just put Hamilton in the minors until he asks for a buyout which would have been better than paying him to play for a division rival?

Haha. I love the irony. But why in the world would you even bother throwing a strike to Hamilton is beyond me. Didn't we see him enough in person flail at every pitch regardless of location. That just lacks basic intelligence.

Difference between these two teams is day and night. A's load the bases and maintain plate discipline. Angels load the bases and flail away. I'd rather have the A's team.
