Just Drafted (1/14)

  1. I remember an article from a wire service in our local newspaper several years ago touting Cron as a can't miss with super star potential. That's all I can tell you.
  2. Sorry if this has been covered before,.Everyone thought CJ would be a superstar. He's been sent down to SLC several times even as a veteran to find himself again. Is it a confidence problem; was he overrated; other ??
  3. If you're have trouble sleeping, watching an Angels game is the instant cure,The most damning indictment is there is no life on this team and there hasn't been for several years. I don't know who would be the best replacement??
  4. This is probably the worst Angels lineup that I can recall and arguably the worst in MLB even with Trout. How are Revere and Maybin (sp?) in the Major Leagues. At least Johnny G had a decent B.A. Rojas and Gubi are doing their best to spin it.
  5. If we can get all of our starting pitching back healthy , not including CJ, and pick up another solid reliever, we have the makings of a contender with rest of the group we have, imo. What say you ??
  6. So are Borjous, Rivera, Mo Vaughan, to name a few more.
  7. Projections for HR and RBI at this time of season is 28-30 and 95-100, respectively. Not typical Trout production but still very good. Other extra base hits are off too I think.
  8. . Other than Trout and maybe Calhoun, this franchise and team brings nothing. Not hard to say where we go from here . Destined for the cellar and to stay put there. Can't blame Scoscia.
  9. Nobody really stepped up..... especially the difference makers......and it cost us dearly. With our crappy bullpen, we probably would've been a quick out anyway, Hope we can take the sense of urgency we finished with into next year. Move Johnny G to leadoff and have Calhoun hitting lower in the lineup. He is productive but he strikes out too much to lead off or hit second. Maybe Murphy can hit in the # 2 position.I don't know.
  10. LIve arm, he competes, and he's still young. Stamina and mental letdowns are all that is keeping him from approaching greatness., IMO.
  11. He gets no help from the bottom of the lineup so his RBI numbers aren't productive as they should be. He's probably won some games for us with his glove as well. He might not be as great as we once thought, but who would you trade him for and get equal or more value.
  12. It starts with Sosh IMO. He just sits there and stares in bewilderment hoping someone is paying attention to his hand signs. And by the dugout shots, Pujols seems to think it's funny. Arte must have a lot of patience watching this pathetic, listless team. Anyone else feel the same ??
  13. Trout strikes outs are mounting again and perhaps for the first time he seems to lack confidence. His RBI production isn't bad for hitting in the # 2 position but is heavily dependent on home runs. He hasn't hit one in about 100 AB's.Trout's obviously a great talent and teammate but the comparisons to Mays and Mantle are way premature, IMO.
  14. Just open Arte's wallet and troll guaranteed mega long term contracts to the likes of Sosh, Wells, Hamilton, Wilson, Pujols, Weaver etc. and all of a sudden you're a friggin' genius. Hilarious. Maybe we should blow up this team and try Houston's way.
