Just thought I would start a thread on some postive feelings we've had about some of our players and associates throughout Angel history.

1. Of course THE COWBOY wanted to win badly.

2. Tim Salmon  (A given)

3. Lymon Bostock  not because of his tragic death but of his gesture to give up his salary because of his horrid start.

Who is the biggest letdown of a pitcher whom you thought ( personally) was a sure bet to be great,  then failed badly?  Now what about the opposite. Very mediocre at best but turned out to be really good.

I know its an improbable outcome due to owner/broadcasting/vendor loss of revenue but it would benefit MLB players, increasing the quality of the overall game. Anyone know of some data research that correlates between time on field to injuries  (we all know our DL history). I think its a slam dunk re. pitching. Does production, offense and defense, suffer more in say August and September. How about the suggestion of going back to 154 game season. More days off especially for coast to coast travel and cut a few games at the end. Increase wild card to maybe 2 out of 3 .Or is an acceptable part of the game, so just toughen up  Any opinions?

How about this? Give him about 40 M via NDA at end of 2017 and offer options for 3 yrs to become Latin czar of scouting.  Face of Latin baseball so to speak. Also throw in a couple of Mil to his charity. Think that could work?  Be gentle with me please.

Hello first time member, really enjoy the forums. Question is : Due to major financial contraints I had to drop DTV so no Angels games. Sob. Does anyone know if I can have my son create an account (lives in nothern Ca.) I could use it to overcome Angel game local blackouts? Any help would be appreciated very much.
