   Our LBC-Crew (myself; DC, and my bud Potsy) will be driving into Tempe/Buttes in time for tomoros game (On my favorite National Holiday; St. Patricks' Day!). Potsy reminded me today that I've gotta drive-out to his Fire Station out in the Palm Springs area in the morning to hop a ride, cuz he's finishing a three-day... He tells me that our "ringleader" (of the AZZ-Clowns) Jay ("King"), has procured our tickets for the next five home games! What a guy... We expect some of the rest of the AZZ will be there, if they took it easy tonight (to rest-up for St. Paddys; "rookie-night" as I like to call it). I'll keep an eye out for AW.Com shirts as we meander our left…

   Pujols' new batting stance

   Am I seeing things or is Pujols' bat angled higher than it was last year? Last year it was almost at a flat angle...This year it's pointing up. It seems like it's closer to how his stance was in STL.

    The Latest from Alden Gonzalez - Frieri working on changeup, will play key bullpen role

    March 16, 2013 by AngelsWin.com

    • 281 views

    Ernesto Frieri has always been a one-pitch pitcher. As a reliever who rarely -- if ever -- works all the way through the lineup, that suited him just fine before. But the question around the Angels right-hander has always been: Just how good could he be if he developed a changeup to complement one of the game's better fastballs? We'll find out soon enough. Frieri is working on a changeup this spring that he feels is just about ready, and he's been working on a cutter, too. View the full article

    Just checked the ticket prices for spring training and I confirmed what I believed: We're getting totally hosed for the two games in Las Vegas this weekend. Tickets are $40 and $50 for the games between the Texas Rangers and Chicago Cubs. I can understand some increase over the routine price to cover travel cost, but this is crazy. For the record, I didn't cough up the cash. I don't care that much about either club. Had the Angels come here I would have given it more consideration.
