  1. Escobar is a liability defensively and honestly he hasn't been that great with the bat this season to warrant playing time over Cron. C.J. has been a beast since the mid-way point. Valbuena has been good as well.
  2. I'm not going to let this Salas news disappoint what has been a great day in Angels Baseball.
  3. Valbuena needs to platoon with Escobar when he's back at 3B. You cannot take Cron out of the lineup and Valbuena has been really good of late.
  4. New SICK lineup... 2B Phillips CF Trout LF Upton DH Pujols RF Calhoun SS Simmons 3B Valbuena 1B Cron C Maldonado
  5. Good idea. The Angels really have no options at 2B next year if Cowart cannot hit at the major league level. Fletcher may need an entire year in AAA. Fontana is Pennington's replacement IMO.
  6. They don't have a future 3B I believe... Cowart is from Georgia too.
  7. Since Richards is coming back on Monday, we may not need Verlander. Richards, Heaney, Skaggs, Bridwell and damn, maybe Barria with the way he's pitched this year (Nolasco makes me want to punch a wall). Barria has pitched 10 scoreless innings across two starts in AAA.
  8. 40 pitches... It's all about the pitch count. They could go with Richards for 4-5 innings, Petit for 2 and Chavez for 2. NBD.
  9. I'm guessing he may want to stay home, since Atlanta is where he grew up and where he has a house. But seriously, if I was wanted by another team who is in contention who just made a big deal for Justin Upton and has Mike Trout. I'd already be on the plane to Texas.
  10. He has to know that the future with the Braves is Swanson and Albies, so no playing time for him.
  11. You'd think Phillips would like to play full time and for a contender.. The Braves have Albies and Swanson at 2B/SS.
