  1. I feel sorry for the fans at the stadium.
  2. I'm watching the end of the Wells Fargo golf tournament. J.B. Holmes is on the way to his first win in six years.
  3. Trout, last 13 games: 21 SO in 49 AB .390 OBP because of all the walks.
  4. What does "extended" mean, 12 pitches instead of 11? Color me a skeptic, but I don't anticipate any production from him at all. I hope to be proved wrong.
  5. Don't worry. After you see the early-innings bunt and the failed contact play, you'll know you're back in the real world.
  6. The honored him in 2009, naming him an honorary Special Agent. Zimbalist and J. Edgar Hoover were also friends, and Hoover was a special consultant on the series. http://www.fbi.gov/news/speeches/honoring-efrem-zimbalist-jr
  7. A non-displaced fracture of the finger, and he may miss only a couple games?? That doesn't sound right. Not typical for Angels players.
  8. Back in the day, there were very few Steve Ontiveros updates. (He never threw a pitch for us.)
  9. Grand slam on an 0-2 pitch last night. That's pretty cool.
  10. It's the thought that he's raking in $8 million (over two years) to have "outstanding" bullpens that is galling. He'll probably not pitch again for us, then move on and be successful for another team, taking his millions with him.
  11. So, Burnett has had "outstanding" bullpens, has looked great in simulated games, and his "stuff" continues to "look good". Yet, he is not even close to returning to the mound in a real game, even to face a single batter. When was his surgery, like a year ago?? What's the deal here?! 2014 salary: $3.875 million.
  12. Phil's second shot on the par-4 8th hole lands within 2 feet. He's tied for the lead now. Minus-7 through 8 holes!
  13. On moving day, Mickelson is going nuclear. Seven holes, minus-6. He's already holed putts of 29 and 38 feet.
  14. Tuesday: threw a total of 11 pitches Today: is scheduled to throw a "simulated game". Scioscia: "(Burnett) not really knocking on the door yet", although "his stuff looked good". http://http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Sean_Burnett/3461774/burnett-elbow-is-scheduled-to-throw-in-a-simulated-game-saturday
  15. from the OCR: Hector Santiago is one of only three full-time starting pitchers to start this season with an 0-5 record. The other two, Arizona’s Brandon McCarthy and Houston’s Brett Oberholtzer, play for the two worst teams in the majors.
  16. I was going to say "Jeremy Berg", but he's sporting a 7.07 ERA right now at Salt Lake. Ouch.
  17. I grew up watching him in "The F.B.I.". Some of the younger people here have probably not heard of that show. http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/05/03/us-people-zimbalist-idUSKBN0DJ02J20140503
  18. On a related topic, the best strikeout swings all-time:
  19. "The Los Angeles Angels of Irvine in Orange County just up the road from San Diego." LAAIOCSD.
  20. He might have looked good in our bullpen. http://www.freep.com/article/20140502/SPORTS02/305020079/detroit-tigers-joel-hanrahan
