He's a mixed bag.

Why are the Angels celebrating the 70's this weekend?
It was mostly the worst decade in team history (except for '79)
The 70's were also the cultural dead zone of mankind.
Still those throwback unis the Angels wore tonight are Sweeeet!
You're spot on. Unfortunately, I witnessed the first nine years. To say it was a disaster would be kind. It was an absolute mess I felt sorry for the 14 dedicated fans who showed up every night.

...Because I've never seen an athlete as unanimously loved and praised like Mike Trout. Nobody has anything bad to say about, because there simply isn't anything to dislike. Trout is the least arrogant athlete I've ever seen, and he genuinely loves his fans. I guess I just find his attitude refreshing because anyone with his skills would be an arrogant asshole. Just go on his Facebook page and see how nice and humble this guy is...makes me proud to be a Halos fan.
Alex Johnson!

Who was the Texas Ranger batting practice pitcher that was masquerading as Nick Tropeano Monday night?

Teixeira also told the Yankees that he has a desired destination; the Los Angeles Angels. If Teixeira did end up going back to the Angels he would be playing under GM Billy Eppler.
This should be a fun thread. Have at it.
That's all we need. Another 36-year old, broken down first baseman to tag team with Pujols.

His complete game 13 K performance nets him AL player of the week!
I'm sure that's an honor he'll treasure forever!

Shows you how bad that farm system is.

The Angels might be face-to-face with the most important 6 game stretch of their season. It begins tonight when they host division leading Texas for 3 games. Following a day off, it concludes in Houston with a 3 game series against the second place Astros. The Angels are 4-6 vs Texas but have won just once in 9 meetings with Houston. They're right where they want to be, playing the teams they need to beat. It's either shit, or get off the pot!

Angels (8-3) have gained 5 games on Texas (3-8) in the last 11. 14 1/2 back puts them in striking distance. The Rangers are in for 3. Perfect opportunity to get back in the race.

Terry Smith made me miss Victor. That's pretty sad!
-
He and C.J. Wilson's salaries both come off the books at season's end.That gives the Angels somewhere around $40M to play with this winter. I'd like to see Weave finish the year in Anaheim and then see what happens?
-
Hector Santiago: 7 innings. 71 strikes. 23 balls. 7 strikeouts. 0 walks. 5 hits. 0 runs. What is Santiago trying to do? Pitch himself right out of Anaheim?

Besides the Angels winning ball games, here's mine:
- Mike Trout (duh). But to expand on that, I'd love to see him post a .1000 OPS with a 30/30 season. I think this is well within his grasp if he keeps this up on the base paths. (15 SB's)
- Shoemaker, Skaggs & Santiago have a great second half (especially if we're not going to trade Santiago).
- Trade Escobar for a good pitching or outfield prospect.
- Huston Street reels off a bunch of save opportunities, lowers his ERA, boosts his trade value.
- Acquire a young active or close prospect left fielder at or before the deadline.
- Watch Bandy and hope he continues to be productive at the plate and stellar behind the dish.
- Nate Smith gets promoted and holds his own in his first taste of the big leagues.
- Lincecum pitch well over the next few starts, boosting his trade value for the deadline or in August.
- Jered Weaver finish his career with a bang, delivering a bunch of quality starts.
- Albert Pujols finishes with a respectable slash line and hit 25+ HR, 100 RBI.
- Bedrosian grabs the closer job by the horns and doesn't let go. We find a gem on the current roster or farm system to be our setup man.
- C.J. Cron & Garrett Richards come back sooner than expected and finish off the season strong. (reloads pipe, takes more puffs)
- Andrelton Simmons continues to hit better while wooing his critics with his incredible defense.
- Our draft class and some key prospects have a great end to the season, boosting their prospect value.
The 1st half of the 2017 season.

Is ridonkulous. In 1059 plate appearances, the team is hitting .323/.396/.477. I know it is the Pioneer League, but still.
The best known prospects are first rounder Matt Thaiss, now promoted, and last year's second rounder Jahmai Jones, who at 18 is hitting .312/.377/.431. But almost everyone is hitting well. Scotty, Dave, Chuck etc, any of these guys legit prospects? Lund, Zimmerman, Montgomery?
Let's just fly to whole team to Anaheim.

How much does he make next year while on the DL?
Heaney makes $515,000 this year. He only has a contract for 2016. Luckily for him he signed away 10% of future earnings for an upfront $3.34M. His getting Tommy John surgery makes the Fantex deal seem like a good move on his part.
10 years from now Heaney might not be the only one living very comfortably!

What are we waiting for?

What's the limit on the number of Future Games you can play in?

per Baseball Reference, Mike Trout is the 7th player since 1913 to hit .300/.400/.500 pre-All Star Break, for his career, thru age 24 (min. 1000 PA's).
I never hear of any of them!

The Angels have to be excited about the American League's victory in the All Star Game. That guarantees them home field advantage in the World Series!

Bartoto Colon should be followed by Satchel Paige.

He should be thankful he wasn't released. He's been stealing major league money for years. Maybe he needs to start all over in the Rookie League.
We're not trading anybody

With Soto again on the DL, Smith and Escobar the only two trade possibilities. There was interest in Soto, but not anymore. I don't think much will happen.
