  1. Not bad guys. At least you have the stuff to stand behind the guys. Agree on the stand of the vast underrating of the Angel's talent. Disagree on Borenstein who is easy top three, but we will see if he can transition to the big park. I think Cron's troubles in Arkansas last year, have given a lot of folks cold feet on Borenstein's projections. Feel that Towey should be higher. Guess your holding back because of his D, but I feel that should come around. Really feel you have low balled McGee big time. Just his D and his CS average puts the Florida State Seminole in the top 20, then add to that his plate discipline and he probably goes top ten easy. I know Alvarez has the tools and the upside and the K/IP rate as well, but how do you rate him higher than Morin, who is probably ready for most Major League pens right now. As you so well put things though, this stuff is not written in stone and a year, or even a half year, can sometimes be amazing in suddenly rearranging these projections. Shoemaker could turn out to be very interesting if Skaggs is not yet ready, and the Angels are not willing to go any farther with Blanton. Exciting stuff.
  2. Great news. JD is determined to see Skaggs get his full shot at the 5 spot. Tip of the cap to JD. Shoe is there if Skaggs can't cut it. That's great too. Shoe is better right now than Capuano. Blanton is only on the depth chart at 6 to possibly entice a late spring training package trade, (hopefully involving the team destroying Aybar). Shoe is the actual number 6. If Blanton can not be packaged or traded, he will be released. Shoemaker was more than simply a wow in his MLB debut last summer. FB solid and live in the 91,92 range. Devastating splitter against lefties. Above average slider against righties. Occasional slow curve, to keep batters honest. Used those pitches 55% of the time and FB about 45%. Amazing 3.97 FIP pitching in the pitcher killing PCL. Led PCL in K's and led the ENTIRE MINORS IN IP. He is an absolute innings eating workhorse. He is the real deal. Shoe deserves his shot. He has paid his dues. That money needs to go to Trout. SHOCK THE WORLD ARTE LOCK MIKE TROUT, THE FACE OF THE ANGELS, THE ANGEL STAMP FOR YEARS AND YEARS 15 YEARS, 400 MIL.. GO FOR IT
