With the above quote from Albert Pujols: "It is far away." I hope he considers retiring early. He has earned over $100 million in his career. Sure another $20 or so million is nice, but he has to do what is right for the team. He is a prideful man. I hope he understands this. He should do the right thing.

If Jared Walsh is the starting first baseman next year, he could put up similar number to Brandon Belt with better defense.

I hope the Angels do not sign Marcus Semien based upon one very good year like they did with Gary Matthews Jr.

I will be there.

Dylan Bundy since he is coming out of the home run friendly AL East ball parks and joining a better defensive and offensive team.

Brandon Marsh kind of reminds me of Jim Edmonds at this stage in his career.

Sign both Wood and Walker. We know Walker is going to be out a while, with the Angels luck, one or two of the starters may get hurt. You can never have enough pitching.

Jake Odorizzi is a possible free agent too. Signed a QO, so the Twins sign him to a new contract or he is a free agent with no QO.

Maybe the Angels should improve their bullpen and outfield, trade for Josh Hader, sign Will Harris and Cole Calhoun, and sign/trade for defensive minded catcher. Try to sign Rich Hill @/or Taijuan Walker to minor league contracts for depth.

It would be nice if Pujols retires after next year and starts his second ten year contract a year early.

I hope Rendon performance for his age 30-37 is on par to Beltre and is not on par to Rolen. Pipe dream Schmitt.

I would like to keep the prospects the Angels have. Sign Keuchel and Bumgarner to short term contracts, 3 or 4 years, and draft a college pitcher in the first round in the next draft, JT Ginn, and hope he, Chris Rodriguez or Jose Soriano will be ready when Keuchel or Bumgarner contact expire.

Jackson looks impressive with all the home runs, but I do not think he is going to hit much better than .250. Trade him if you can something of value.

Would like to see a trade for Jon Gray.
