Closing Time on the Pujols Era with the Angels
Dave Saltzer posted a blog entry in AngelsWin.com Today
Photo Credit: Alex Gallardo/Associated Press By David Saltzer, AngelsWin.com Senior Writer —"Closing time, every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end.” Semisonic In life, we all will face the point where we will be replaced. It’s never easy. If we are lucky, it’s on our own terms and we can retire when we want to. At other times, life dictates the ending. Whether it’s a business closing, an illness affecting us, a life event happening to someone else, a global pandemic, it will happen. That’s an unfortunate certainty to life. If baseball is anything, it is b- 1 comment

By Robert Cunningham, Angelswin.com Senior Writer Special Request from Angelswin.com: This year, after discussion with Chuck, we have decided to tie-in the 2021 Angelswin.com Primer Series with a wonderful GoFundMe effort called “Hope for Education”. This is a focused fundraiser, to help ten needy families in Ensenada, Baja California, Mexico, obtain laptops for educational use in this challenging COVID-19 pandemic environment. These families are unable to afford these computers, themselves, and so it is up to charitable people and donors to help bridge the gap so these childr

By Robert Cunningham, Angelswin.com Senior Writer So if they call third base the "hot corner", should they call first base the "cold corner"? These are some of the random thoughts that pass through my head as the Primer Series progresses. However, the author suspects that Eppler would actually like to make sure that first base heats up in 2020 rather than reenact the cold spell that turned out to be a 27th placed ranking, in total WAR for the year, among all 30 Major League Baseball teams. Pujols, across 423 plate appearances (PA's) at 1B, provided some offensive productivity (w

2020 AngelsWin.com Primer Series: Eppler's Strategy
ettin posted a blog entry in AngelsWin.com Today
By Robert Cunningham, AngelsWin.com Senior Writer To classify this off-season as the most important one in Eppler's career, to-date, is not an understatement. Moreno has not yet publicly extended Billy's contract, which means 2020 is the last year under his current deal and he could be looking for a new position in the coming months if the off-season does not go as planned and/or the Angels get off to a terrible start in the upcoming season. On top of that Arte has expressed a clear need for this team to push itself into a new window of contention after years of languishing in m-

I was reading that the average cost per win in 2013 was $7 million. So I looked at the cost of Pujols, Hamilton and CJ. My very rough calculations had the following: CJ Wilson = $14 million Josh Hamilton = $33 million Albert Pujols (over 4 years) = $7.5 million Mike Trout (2013-15) =$285,000 None of them compared to Ryan Howard though who cost $110 million over 5 years and produced -3.8 WAR. I'm not even sure how to calculate that. Is that a cost of $330 million?

Deserves its own thread. This is the Albert we all wanted when he was signed. Both HRs totally crushed. Vintage Albert is back!

Simple topic, on a scale of 1-10 how worried are you about Trout, Pujols, and Hamilton. Trout - 1/10 - I'm not worried about him at all, honestly. He's K'ing a lot, but that should level out as the season goes along. The 2B's, 3B's, and the HR's will come once his bat starts to heat up as well. Pujols - 6/10 - I'm worried about the foot injury. You can play through plantar fasciitis, but there is a chance it could pop completely. He looks like he's in severe pain when he runs and doesn't even look comfortable in the batter's box. If he can get healthy, I'm confident his bat will come
