  1. Shoulda gone to the game tonight. Beautiful night for baseball!
  2. Love love love the lineup, Calhoun is a great leadoff man. Except for Pujols batting 3rd (which is never going to change), I think it should be like this all the time.
  3. I hate this speculation crap. Just let us know when it actually happens.
  4. I had no problem with Disney owning the Angels and I don't understand what everyone's problem with it was or why other teams or the media felt it was a way to "knock" our team as Mickey Mouse just because of it. I would not prefer the periwinkle uniforms if I had my choice, but the stink people make about them is overboard. Disney is an awesome company, they renovated the stadium beautifully and uniquely and there's several things I enjoyed they did. -Moved the bullpen in left so everyone can see if a pitcher is warming up. -Busting out the upper deck seats from left to center, definitely gave a great new vibe and made the stadium feel more "open" -I love the rock formation in center, nothing else like it in the majors and very original, the somewhat hidden "A" was a nice touch -Loved the 100 foot fountain and fireworks that go off when a homerun was hit, had nothing like that in Angel stadium before, very "California-esque" -They had a "run to first base" game where it would time your run against Darin Erstads with a light along the basepath that showed how fast you'd have to run to keep up with him -I enjoy grabbing a beer and being able to walk an entire lap around the stadium concourse, seeing the field from a bunch of different views, without having to go up or down a level And look how well the renovations have held up the past 16 years. Disney was also a part of our World Series, no shame in that. And last, I love that they put Anaheim in the name of the team and on road uni's so that all the commentators had to say Anaheim, it put the city on the spot much better than California Angels. Anaheim Angels was a nice short name that had a ring to it. I don't give a flying f*** if nobody "knows" where Anaheim is, point is you've heard of it. The Los Angeles name is completely stupid and asshattedly bogus, and I don't blame people for mocking our team for the inaccurate and ridiculously long team name.
  5. I'd give up Cron, hesitantly, but it'd be downright stupid to get rid of Calhoun at this point with how spectacularly he's been playing this season.
  6. Been a fan of Street since I first saw him. Would be a great addition IMO.
  7. It depends if the A's hit a skid or not.
  8. I think it's going to depend on the relationships he builds in the Angels franchise, if he wins any rings here over the course of his contract, and if he sees the organization continuing to be successful in the future if he stays. Notice none of this has to do with how much he's looking to get paid. Guys like Cano, Pujols, Cabrera, Rodriguez, all these guys had this mentality like they were deserved of a big paying contract and were going to go to whoever was willing to give it to them. I don't know Trout of course, but he doesn't seem to have that same kind of "show me the money" mentality. Once you've made $150 million, and you know more is on its way, I really think it comes down to where he wants to play. It's going to be up to the Angels Organization to convince him that staying here is the best thing for him.
  9. Looks like Puig shoulda caught that ball. Trout is so fast, hitting 20 MPH rounding 2nd base, I was surprised he got called out at third when he tried to stretch a triple a couple games ago.
  10. Buck get the f*** out of the locker room you are a nobody who only has a job because of your dad. Nice going Jeets.
  11. Hard to believe it, but for me online Tiggers fans have solidified themselves as some of the biggest horses ass fans I have ever seen in forums and the comment section of articles.
  12. AO is such a trooper. Dunno what we'd do without him.
  13. Are these people out of their goddamn minds? Can't believe they actually gave the MVP to Trout. Thought it'd be a Jeter circle jerk the entire time.
  14. Wonder if Trout feels left out?
  15. Morneu's on the Rockies? Holy crap I didn't know that, thought he was a Twins lifer.
  16. Bautista will probably win. He's jacking them and has a great swing.
  17. Yah I just noticed that. Weird.
