Oh, and Daren Erksted if he chooses to manage.

I think DiPoto should be held accountable as well. He has really been terrible at reconstructing this bullpen. He's passed it off as not being that big of an issue, but he could have went out and redirected a lot of money toward getting that issue fixed. For me it's the worst nightmare a team can have, a bullpen with no stopping power. Any progress made by an offense gets tossed away night after night because the pen can't hold a lead or keep a game close. I still think the Blanton signing was a terrible blunder as well. Those issues, for me, are squarely on DiPoto.

Mitch can't read a pitch chart, LOL.

Tony has had three surgeries for salivary gland cancer. He was quoted as saying one of the toughest things in his recovery was not being able to smile or be himself. That would probably work here, there is nothing to smile about with the Angels right now. However, he is way too heavy, and doesn't meet the requirements set down by mp170.6.

A's aren't this good, Angels aren't this bad, but the A's very well could be better constructed over 162 games.

On the other hand, would you rather they had a beer, said f**k it, and just went home.

Not again. Who wants to make a jackass out of themselves?

Hamilton 2-4, 1 HR.

LOL.

Obama, he can cut salaries - fast!

Jepson is red hot again tonight. He's gotta be our new head case.

A specific player's SB totals are the key to a World Series, just ask Jose Mota.

Same can be said for Fabregas and mp teaming up. You can't wait to take the opposite position, LOL.

He talks a mean game, and he's faster than a road runner; other than that, meh! Sounds like a good closer to me.

You forgot, "a GM who fails to respect the importance of getting first rate bullpen help."

You convinced me on this one.

Arte doesn't know what he is doing, so I can't convince you.

It would happen, it's the nature of baseball fans. Egos would rule, big egos. That's why bullying is a big problem among our children.

Not funny.

Then why bring it up. The statement has no credibility.

No they wouldn't, they would call him a quitter and want him traded, again.

Then we could analyze that statement in a new thread discussing exactly what that means, and how we need a whole new organization and players.
