    Bourjos Career Batting Statistics:  253 BA,  307 OB, 407 SLG, 714 OPS
    Conger's Career Statistics:    207 BA,  283 OB, 337 SLG, 620 OPS
     
    Where do you get that Conger is a much better hitter than Bourjos.  Yes, I know Conger's number's are low due to sample size, but the same can be said about Bourjos.

    Dipoto could extend Trout to a 10yr $125m contract and everyone here would be ecstatic. Then Trout could have a rough next 2 years and some of those same people say "Dipoto was an idiot giving so much $$$ to a player with only 1 year under their belt".

    Most of us on here liked the Greinke trade IF AND ONLY IF he could be re-signed but he wasn't therefore it's a failure.

    Please!  Continue to jump-ship.  It was very nice having so much leg-room at the game last week when you didn't show-up...  The whine-song is getting old in here.
     
    "Howie sucks!"  "Scoscia and Dipoto suck!"  "Hamilton sucks!"  "Pujols is hurt, too old, and sucks!"  "Trout is too fat to improve on his historic rookie season!"  etc.
     
    Some of it may be true, and it really sucks to lose a series to Houston... but I will still watch and root for them, as I see some guys still showing some fire and trying to get it done (Hopefully, the Kings will make a repeat-run so I don't have to watch every minute of the Angels games).
     
    I don't know what the solution is, but It's not over yet.  I remember a team in '02 that got off to a pretty horrendous start too...

    This isn't Scioscia's fault.  He is likely to take the blame, but this is a bad team.  Bad pitching, bad bull pen and the big contract players are playing like AA bush leaguers!

    No way, he's right. There is no manager who could manage this mess of pitching. NONE. We take the lead, it's taken back, we take the lead it's taken back. 
     
    It is interesting that he said it. I'd like to be a fly on the wall in some of the "meetings"

    stormngt reacted to SigBaby in Hamilton Should Bat Second   
    1. With Trout at leadoff, teams will not be able to walk Trout like they walk Albert due to the threat of a stolen base
    2. With Trout on base, he should be stealing a lot on all the offspeed stuff Hamilton gets
    3. We have yet to see it, but supposedly Hamilton can hit. If Trout returns to being a weapon on the bases, pitchers will rush their deliveries and maybe hang a breaking ball to Hamilton (hopefully he is able to hit that much)

    Give ME a break. You guys are so quick to hate on this team, why don't you just go root for a new team since you clearly can't ever be happy with this one. A 20-0 win would be greeted with "Hamilton struck out twice, when he hit three homers" it's ridiculous. You don't think pitchers spent a little extra time preparing for Trout over the off season, especially since they finally got film on him? So sorry he isn't hitting .400 with 30 steals 10 homers and 30 RBIs yet. Oh wait, that still wouldn't be enough for some of you.

    Uh nice try, but Hamilton has been like this before and he has gone through long slump stretches (prior to the second half last year). LOL that they "finally" got a book on Hamilton and it took them several years to figure him out. You cannot be serious. Slumping hitters look like crap at the plate. Good hitters find their way out of a slump eventually. Hamilton is a good hitter.

    Second season in a row that he has been placed on the DL with some type of wear-and-tear injury. Also, I think I saw a gray hair on his head the other day when he took off his hat in the dugout. Did we really sign this grandpa to a 5-year extension a couple years ago?
     
    From now on, I say we only give extensions or contracts to players who are 23 and younger.

    That was great to watch and see no matter how much Neil has lost. The time delay I think messed him up a bit. Also, I thought the Fox TV feed didn't do it justice. they didn't pick up how loud the crowd was. I found this youtube video which really seemed to captured the moment of being there. Pretty good except for the guy the near the mic who only sang the line "nah nah nah nah"

    Yeah, exactly.  Everyone knows he has lost a few steps.  But to come out on notice to perform.  When he probably hasn't sung in years, if not decades.  That's someone that wants to be there, to honor.  
     
    I don't care how they sound.  For instance if Train came out to sing Calling on Angels at a game, I wouldn't care how they sounded.
