I am sure she saw the writing on the wall - dude's career is in jeopardy and his sobriety is in question.

Best thing for him to do is get sober, have a few awesome seasons, sign another big contract (with another team), and find a younger wife.

Get it done, Dipoto! You know what you have to do!

This team could seriously be good.

You mean like have the best record in baseball? That happened JUST LAST YEAR!

Hamilton has been disappointing, but his contract was right. It will be over before we know it. I worry a lot more about Pujols' contract.

Not for me. Nothing stops people from commenting on them and they are easy to identify. I have limited time to search for Angels-related news so this is like a one-stop shop.

The team does revolve around Trout though. Take him off this team and they go from playoff contenders to mediocrity

Yeah, they should have an award for what that means to a team! They could call it the Most Valuable Player.

Do you think there are still POW's in Vietnam?

Trout should bunt more often to take advantage of his speed!

I thought "3449 for 3452" referred to his record when he had a line of coke in front of him.

Who was that guy out there tonight and what did he do with the real CJ Wilson?

I was gonna joke that his new gear is second but the article actually said it. Woo hoo! He has two gears now!

What's wrong with a #5 starter? Do we wanna go back to our #5 starter being "bullpen" or Joe Blanton?

How is Howie's pitching?

Dallas Mcpherson

Some low rated guys work out and some highly rated guys don't

It is good to have a former after a lot of the latter recently

He's not a bad pitcher. He's a terrible pitcher. Let's hope he starts strong and we are able to trade him while we can.

dude is still nails at home. They should maximize the amount of starts he gets at home vs the road.

 

2014:

Home: 2.68 ERA

Road: 4.70 ERA

 

2013:

Home: 2.59 ERA

Road: 4.00 ERA

Did I miss anyone?

Vernon Wells

Sounds good, but why was Oakland not interested? That part worries me.

the angels are idiots here.

You're forking over 30m a yr for a guy who needs a damn babysitter. Did they think about any of this?

Wouldn't have been so bad had he actually be able to, say, hit a home run at the Big A.

Can't strictly be a DH, has to play at least one other position to keep the DH rotating. 

I'm sorry. What? Please explain. Wouldn't he play catcher? You definitely don't want a guy with his lack of power playing 1B  (or DHing either, really).

Don't get me wrong, I love Iannetta. If he can learn first base, might make a nice DH. I just wanna see the team get younger, more athletic, and better defensively behind the plate. Really hope Bandy or Perez can break out and take the starting job. 

"If he can learn first base, might make a nice DH."

Huh?

where is Chone?  he played some for the Dodgers last year and I think got released or demoted to AAA late in the season.

 

Always liked Figgins -- but the problem with a player with his skill set is that once they lose a step or two, they go downhill quickly.

 

Figgy was an exciting player and played all out.....he was a speedster.........I remember when he signed with Seattle (a career ender for a lot a players -- being a big dollar F/A for the Mariners) and thought then we had gotten Figgy's most productive years and now the M's were over-paying for him.

 

Is Figgy still sticking around some place or is he out of baseball.........the Dodgers roster these days seem stocked with MIF types and some of their discards will find MLB homes.......I don't see Figgy even making the depth chart over there.

Signing with Seattle is a career ender? Have you seen the Angels track record?

Is old and makes too much money

So you are saying this is likely?

His head seems to be getting larger.

Is that a man?

Are you a virgin? LOL

Nevermind, I know the answer.

I was thinking this:

Or maybe this:
