Is this worth keeping Trout in an Angels uni? the short answer is YES. But if a team came with an offer that blew the front office out of the water, then that would have to be considered. It would have to be a team that is already close and just needs that little extra push to get over the top. Unfortunately, the only team that is currently close and has the farm system to possibly entertain such an offer would be our neighbors up the 5 freeway, yup the Dodgers. With the length of contract that he still has remaining and his potential for growth, it would have to be an incredible haul of talent. Go Halos!!!

And we're still only 2 games out? It's going to be an exciting year. Don't abandon ship just yet. Go Halos!!!

You're reading it correctly. Cespedes did play only 3 games. Don't get me wrong, I would love to have this guy come in and have an immediate impact, I just don't think it happens. I wish they would have picked up Cespedes, regardless of draft pick compensation. Go Halos!!!

Great news!!! Let's get hot. Go Halos!!!

Puig played 83 games in the minors from 2012-2013. As I stated "Unless he tore through the minors, he may get a September call up". I have no problem with picking him up, I just don't see it helping this season. I hope I'm wrong though. http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/p/puigya01.shtml Go Halos!!!

Even if we did sign him, he would still have to prove himself in the minors. Unless he tore through the minors, he may get a September call up. Doesn't help us for this year. Go Halos!!!

Let's say that Weaver goes 12-10 with a 4.25 ERA. Would you offer him an extension or would you let him walk? If you would offer him an extension, how long would you go and for how much? As much as it pains me, I would let him walk. Go Halos!!!

The best in the world!!!

Calhoun HBP, runner is on!!! Go Halos!!!

Remember 6-14? we still have time. Go Halos!!!

Remember when this team was good and we swept the A's? Seems so long ago. Go Halos!!!

Trade Trout now, while he still has value. We could get at least 15 decent prospects and just try again in 3 to 4 years. Just kidding. Go Halos!!!

I like this game. Remember when MCab was available and nobody wanted him because he was a wife beater? He hasn't done much since. Go Halos!!!

I can agree with the netting to the edge of the infield. But any further down the line the fans need to be paying attention. Go Halos!!!

With all the whining on this page, I thought we were 15 GB. Looked it up and we're 1.5 GB? We got this!!! Only 150 games to go. Go Halos!!!

Trout hit a ball off the wall and was held to a single, Really? Of course he over ran first base, but come on. There were many hard hit balls right at the defense, and all the games were close. Yes, we should have not been swept, but things happen. We're fine, don't pull the trigger just yet. Go Halos!!!

Hey Doc, Thanks for the effort on this thread. Best thread going. Go Halos!!!

I think Pujols takes it personally when Trout is intentionally walked to get to him. I remember this happening against the Padres in the recent past. Nothing like lighting a fire under a future hall of famer. Hope the fire burns hot for a loooooooooong time. Go Halos!!!

I really enjoyed this thread. I also appreciate the effort put forth to bring this information. If this could be continued, I would greatly appreciate it. Go Halos!!!

If the best player on the planet has gone hit less in the first two games, it's pretty safe to say that their pitching was pretty good. Not exactly sure how that is Scioscia's fault. Go Halos!!!

We will sweep the Rangers. That is all. Go Halos!!!

I honestly think that today's players don't take breaks as they're coming up. Baseball is now a year round sport. they never give their bodies a chance to heal, rest and recover. Go Halos!!!

Or it means that he found the right combination of performance enhancing drugs. Go Halos!!!

Also, if your infield is playing a shift, shouldn't you pitch to the shift instead of pitching away from it? Especially when you can throw 98 mph? Go Halos!!!
