   Trout's throw to 3rd in the 8th

   Just terrible fundamentals even if he had Vlad's arm, and of course he has Mike Trout's weakness arm instead, just to make it worse. Terrible.

   This is the worst team that has ever worn an Angels uniform in their history, period, regardless of expectations. This is not hyperbole. This, the 2013 Angels, is THE worst team. Period.

   Mike Scioscia's Contract 1 2

   • 2k views

   So I was talking to someone today that is close to Rob Piccilo and he was saying that Mike has an opt out clause at the end of this season, this was the first I have heard of it. So I looked at Cots and it actually says Mike has one after 2015. I am just shocked that not only had I never heard that before, but people here aren't talking about it. The guy I was talking to is a stand up guy who's uncle is a major league coach, so I believe the things he says. I am not saying he is right about when the buy out is, he is probably mistaken about the year, but he had an interesting take on the next Angel manager, Sandy Alomar Jr. So there you go, for what it's worth.

    By Joe Haakenson, AngelsWin.com Contributor - MAY 17, 2002 GAME 39 - ANGELS AT WHITE SOX CHICAGO -- The wind-chill factor at the start of Friday night's game between the Angels and Chicago White Sox was 34 degrees, which seemed to make Chicago-area natives Scott Spiezio, Al Levine and Lou Pote feel right at home. All three played big roles in leading the Angels to an 8-4 victory before 12,736 bundled up fans at Comiskey Park, the Angels eighth consecutive victory and their 17th in 19 games. The Angels have won eight in a row twice this season, the first time in franchise history they've had two winning streaks of at least eight games in the same season. The Ange…

    Rember when... We used to bitch about no offense. But Could score 3-4 runs a game and hold. Quality start, hand it over in the 7th,8th and close like clockwork. Potential offense will never overcome poor pitching. Poorly constructed team. Hard to watch.

    The jobs of Manager Mike Scioscia and General Manager Jerry Dipoto are safe for now, he also says. Arte Moreno has placed blame for the team's brutal 2013 start, its failure to make the playoffs for three straight years and several high-priced moves that have paid minimal dividends on the one person the Angels owner can't fire: View the full article

    Forget his hitting, I'm talking about his defense and game calling. Make all the jokes about CERA that you want, but I've seen more passed balls, cross-ups, and just plain poor pitch selection than ever before. He's not the sole reason our pitching sucks, but he's certainly not helping the situation. And no, Conger doesn't appear to be any better. I don't know what the solution is, but I don't think Iannetta is a guy you want behind the plate if you're really trying to contend.

    LA Times: Little things add up as Angels lose again

    The negative numbers include a bases-loaded walk, two errors and a key mental misfire in a 5-4 loss to the Chicago White Sox. It's early, but it's not that early. The Angels began the second quarter of the season with another ugly loss Thursday night, committing two errors plus a crucial mental mistake, throwing a wild pitch that scored a run and issuing a four-pitch, bases-loaded walk to a .185 hitter who had not drawn a free pass all season.
