Report: Spiezio's Condo For Sale in Default
Rob McMillin breaks another sad chapter in this ongoing saga. Spiezio followed in his father's footsteps and won a world series ring with two different teams and may end up working in a furniture store like dad as well....
Aroldis Chapman has signed with Kendry Morales' agent Randy Hendricks.
Does this make signing Chapman anymore of a reality for the Angels?

Angels 40-Man Roster Set at 38
by Rev Halofan on Nov 21, 2009 2:56 AM PST
in News
12 comments
As the rights to exclusive negotiations with their free agents closed, like every major league club, the Angels set their 40-Man Roster yesterday. It stands at 38. Here they are listed in order of the earliest that each can become a free agent. The final move was the addition of Peter Bourjos to the roster in order to protect him from the Rule 5 Draft in December.
The Angels who are 34 or older: Abreu, Matthews, Hunter, Shields and Fuentes
The Angels who are under 25: O'Sullivan, Bourjos, Trumbo, Bell, Ortega, Wood
* means a club option exists for an extra year.

Read My Lips, No New Free-Agents!!!
by Jay Cal on Nov 20, 2009 10:43 AM PST
54 comments
The void that will be created with the departures of John Lackey, Chone Figgins, Darren Oliver, and Vladimir Guerrero will be felt long after they sign new contracts with their new teams. Lackey is a true number one Ace, Figgins is a true lead off hitter and has great defensive skills, Oliver isn't only a lefty specialist, and Vladimir was the face of the franchise. But like Tony Reagins said on The Drive yesterday, you have to take the emotion out of the business decisions.
We Will Win, With What We Got or Lightning Strikes Twice.

Angels Uniform #50
1972 - 94: Angel coach Jimmie Reese
This is a strange case. Longtime Angels coach Jimmie Reese had his jersey number posthumously retired by the Angels. Prior to his hiring, no Angel player or Manager had ever worn #50.
TRIVIA TIME: Jimmie Reese is not the only person in baseball history with a retired jersey # that no player ever wore in their club's history. Name the other four (the answer is in the comments section).

Justin Speier - This Day in Angels Blogging History

3 months ago: Los Angeles Angels relief pitcher Justin Speier, right, reacts after giving up a solo home run to Texas Rangers' Taylor Teagarden during the fifth inning of a baseball game in Anaheim, Calif., Friday, Aug. 7, 2009. (AP Photo/Chris Carlson)
November 19, 2006, 3 years ago today, the Angels signed former Toronto Blue Jay pitcher Justin Speier as a free agent. It was a Bill Stoneman signing.
The 4-year deal (yes we will be paying him next season) was a precursor to trading Scot Shields and a prospect to the Atlanta Braves for Andruw Jones - whoops wait a minute, was that my analysis? Oh dear. And then in the comments, Welch says "no way" in the comments and I say "way" and am actually persuasive about it.
Funny thing - nobody in the comments was upset about this signing, especially relative to the vitriol that Speier managed to "just inspire" among Angels fans.
