  1. Cron vs. Choi Cron vs..Marte In the same night. Telling. Thanks, Ric.
  2. Marte turns on high octane fastballs on the inner half, stays back on breaking stuff. I'd like to see him get more starts. And like Doc said, we should get him some reps in LF.
  3. I'm sorry dudes, but there were ZERO cannot miss picks in this draft. We all need to stand down. And pray.
  4. I've warmed to this like a camp fire in the freezing fucking cold
  5. Maybe we just drafted the best bat in the draft dudes? Just saying..
  6. There isn't a lot of college hitting in this year's Draft class, and the college catching crop is particularly thin. But Thaiss's ability with the bat, coming from a strong Virginia program, has him poised for early-round consideration. Thaiss has long impressed with the bat. His 10 home runs as a sophomore, while playing in a pitching-friendly home park, led the Cavaliers as they won the College World Series. He has an advanced approach at the plate and solid power, especially on the extra-base front, though he should have some over-the-fence pop at the next level. He's continued to be very consistent at the plate as a junior, though there are many questions about his ability to stay behind it as a pro. His catching skills are quite raw, with a fringy arm and rough receiving skills. Teams might want to send Thaiss out as a catcher; those that do might consider him in the opening round. But his bat alone -- and he has played first base at times -- should make him a day one selection.
  7. Is Rutherford that much better than Kirilloff?
  8. Going to be funny if Rutherford and Kirilloff are there and the Angels select a catcher most had on their board in the 5th round.
  9. Arte is? He has nothing to do with trading minor leaguers btw..That's on the GM. If anything, he only gets involved when signing a big $$$ FA, not trades.
  10. I wish we could move up and draft him. I'd trade a few Rondons.
  11. I would have to agree. I mean, unless the catcher can hit and catch/throw/frame like a rockstar, I'd rather use the 3rd rounder for a defensive wizard.
  12. Found this while looking through the old website archives. All of us old timers will remember this one. Also, does anyone recall our old homepage? If you remember this song used to load whenever you went to www.AngelsWin.com Feel free to download this song and save to your device. Would make a good ringtone! Go Angels angelsfightsong.mp3
  13. Latos has allowed 29 earned runs over his last 36 innings.
