Lol thanks for coming, Burnett

Right tricep tightness for Hanson

Crushed

Hopefully it was only something like back spasms or a cramp or something IDK

Kyle Lohse come on down!

Jeez, he didn't even make it to April before getting hurt

Mike DiGiovanna ‏@MikeDiGiovanna 21s #Angels RHP Tommy Hanson's fastball clocked at 89-91 mph in first 3 innings. This late in spring, was probably hoping for litle more velo. It is what it is

2 outs on the basepaths. Yes!

Hamilton will fit in well on this team. Solid baserunning

Vargas' notes after this outing: "Do not leave my pitches up in the zone"

I love when the Halos run themselves out of innings

So, who actually is pitching well for the Halos this spring?

Trout's pretty good

When Pujols got HBP, the ball hit the home plate ump in the wrist and knocked him out. Guess rather than delaying the game, they just had another ump call balls/strikes from behind the pitchers mound, while another ump took his time to get the umpire's gear on.

Nice meatball, Vargas

Haha, no home plate ump right now

Blantana is seriously one of the best nicknames ever coined on this forum. Kudos to the creator of it

He'll be allowed to stand at the plate and not swing the bat

I think he'll be good to go by the all-star break 2014

Jeff Fletcher ‏@JeffFletcherOCR #Angels RHP Ryan Madson said he hasn't thrown a bullpen since Thu because of some discomfort. Team has modified his rehab now. Jeff Fletcher ‏@JeffFletcherOCR Madson said he's not sure when he'll get on a mound again. He's only thrown 2 bullpens since Feb 1. #Angels Jeff Fletcher ‏@JeffFletcherOCR Madson: "I don't get disappointed any more. That's an adolescent approach." #Angels

Yep. Injuries played a role in slowing his devleopment, but the guy just sucks at catcher

He'd probably get hurt after a few hours of reps at the hot corner

I heard this dude has a great CERA

Another pissfest by AD It's ST dude. Calm down. Morales is a FA after the season, will be 30 years old and is limited to being a marginal defensive 1B now because of his injury. Trumbo, meanwhile, is 3 years younger, much cheaper and can play the OF and 1B. He simply offers more to the team and helps keep things flexible with the roster AND with the payroll You act like Arte can just throw money around left and right, but it's not that simple. Trading Morales over Trumbo/Bourjos was the right business decision for the present and future. They made the right call in this instance Now, your concerns over Trumbo are justified, I have the same ones.

Conger sucks. Can't stay healthy, can't play D
