    after 11 games:

    Team ERA  5.10 (28th in MLB)

    Starters' ERA  5.99

    55 Earned Runs Allowed (worst in MLB)

    Richards on DL, out indefinitely

    Huston Street out until at least May

    Andrew Bailey on DL with right shoulder inflammation, no return date

    Strangely enough, our pitchers' BAA is .242, which is good enough for the middle of the pack in MLB (14th place)

    And there's this, WHIP 1.227 (8th best in baseball)

    After reading that I'd saying we're standing on a big pile of steamy shit

    Pujols so far

    With guys on base he does shorten up and go the other way. Two of his RBI hits are to the opposite field. Teams don't shift on him as much with runners on. 

    And with the bases empty, it seems much more efficient for him to try to hit homers than to go for singles and hope for 2 more from the guys behind him to score him. 

    So you're "kind of" agreeing with me... if so I'm so showing this to everyone I know and who loves your work

    Pujols needs to stop trying to pull the ball to hit home runs, and just go for singles and doubles to help the team win. 

    His slugger approach just does not cut it, and it has been absolutely killing this team for the last few years. His power is just not where it used to be. You can tell he goes for dingers, and if he gets lucky he misses it a bit and it falls in for a hit. But his approach has single handedly created a hole in the lineup ever since he was acquired. 

    He needs to find a pitch to drive, and put some good meat on the ball, and spray to all sides of the field.

    100% agree... teams are always shifting on him, just shorten the swing and go the opposite way.... also at Angels Stadium he's had a few warning track shots already this year, maybe use that approach more so on the road in smaller stadiums that are more hitter friendly... and if we have a big lead at home, go for the fences, who cares then when you have a good sized lead.

    O.J. Simpson reportedly called 911 about a domestic dispute - of sorts, reportsCBS News Correspondent Julie Chen. 

    Simpson and his girlfriend, Christie Prody, deny she was the object of a call Simpson made to the police emergency line asking for help finding her after an alleged drug binge.

    "We have a problem here," Simpson was heard telling the 911 operator. "I'm trying to get a girl to go to rehab. ... She's been doing drugs for two days with Pedro Guerrero, who just got arrested for cocaine, and I'm trying to get her to leave her house and go into rehab right now."

    male voice: "October 10,1999 18:15 hours, complaint desk, position number 1."
    Operator: "Where's your emergency?"
    Simpson: "We have a problem here. I'm trying to get a girl to go to rehab..."
    Operator: "Does anyone need rescue?"
    Simpson: "She's been doing drugs for two days with Pedro Guerrero, who just got arrested for cocaine, and I'm trying to get her to leave her house and go into rehab right now."
    Operator: "Is anyone hitting anyone right now?"
    Simpson: "No, no. It's nothing like that."
    Operator: "Does anyone have any weapons?"
    Simpson: "No, no..."
    Operator: "Does the girl need a rescue?"
    Simpson: "No she doesn't need a rescue..."

    -sounds of number being dialed-

    Simpson: "Hello..."
    Operator: "This is the police department."
    Simpson: "She left and I don't know what to do about it. I'm frustrated...arrested for having 15 keys of cocaine recently. This girl has spent the last two days doing drugs with him. Me and a friend just came to say you're going into a rehab. She got mad. She just go into her car. She drives a Mercedes...she lives in the...now she's loaded out of her mind...driving around somewhere. I don't have her driver's license number but she needs to be stopped."
    Operator: "What color is the Mustang?"
    Simpson: "It's white with a black top."
    Operator: "Is she black or white?"
    Simpson: "She's a white girl."

    -pause-

    Simpson: "Okay thank you. I have to go to see if I can find her."

    This OJ dude seems like a real good guy

    I think being a good defensive catcher that hits 25 HR a year is his ceiling, and that in I tself would a hit the lottery type of outcome. 

    I think him being a solid member of our catching contingent for a solid 5+ years is the outcome here. That has value.

    Scotty if this dude hits 25 homers in a single year for the Angels I'm so taking you out to a Super Fancy, High End, Spectacular Steak Dinner at the Sizzler
