Wow... Espinosa missed that fastball by a good 2 feet

Another smart defensive play from Simmons that won't go in the stats. 

Most frustrating is watching Trout play with Triple A - Anaheim. Only kidding, but seeing so many HR's given up with such a good D is frustrating. 

This would hopefully infuse some much needed talent and bring some hope for the farm program.

Heard last night that they fired the salty nuts guy. 

What!!!? Why!? Dude makes me laugh every time

Lol or just have trout hit a bomb

What about Chevy Clarke and Ryan Bolden? That was a bad draft...

Fake news? If true, anyone know anything about these guys?

I find it interesting that Joe Madden is saying he's gonna use Schwarber to lead off, and terry Francona using Santana. Maybe Scocia should consider using our best hitter to lead off. After all the lead off hitter will get the most AB's. 

Sounds like Hammel is only going to get a 1-year deal. I wouldn't mind having him in the rotation pitching in Angel stadium with a great defense behind him. 

I think he'd be a great pick up

Maybe we could snag Jeurys Familia for cheap...

There's no way the Rangers would trade profar or Gallo for Santiago or shoemaker. I doubt shoe and Santiago together would get either prospect. 

Burdi would have been a nice pick as well

Love the Cardinals pick. Perez should have been in the top 10 if it weren't for his PED incident 

Man, Trout is struggling. This offense is fine if he and Pujols produce like they should

Link?

Good read, thanks for sharing

Giving up Alcantara and Taylor Ward. Lucroy only has 1 year left in his contract, with a team option for 2017.

I hope this isn't true. I like Lucroy, but I hate that the Angels keep selling off any promising young players. 

Signing Mike Leake would definitely make Santiago more expendable to pick up a LF.

So we gave away our best prospects, and upgraded a position we didn't need... Well played

I'm obviously being sarcastic, but this move just doesn't make any sense. We had a capable SS, and traded our 2 best pitching prospects without filling any holes. I really hope this team wins, because if we suck and miss the playoffs, it'll be much harder to stomach knowing there's no future help on the way via the farm system.

Bummer to see Angel draft picks do so well after we trade them. Era: 2.73 in 150 innings 140 K's, whip close to 1. Wish we had grichuk back as well.

I still can't get over Joyce not being able to lay down that bunt, then striking out...

Wow great AB for Joyce in the bottom of the 6th. Guys been playing baseball for how long and can't lay a bunt down? Then featherstone gets picked off of 2nd. That's the kind of crap that loses games.
