I think I have heard four different opinions from five different guys about his abiity to stay behind the plate. The two I put the most stock into the two guys from BA that basically said don't doubt Hank he has the talent and work ethic to stay behind the plate. I hope they get him signed quick so he can play the full season w/ Orem.

Here's Today's Line-Up, and my picks:

Looks like Mike decided to give Chone the day off after his poor performance and lack of hustle in yesterday's game. Here are today's line-ups:

Angels:
Cabrera - SS - .284
Rivera - LF - .229
Guerrero - DH - .329
Salmon - RF - .278 <-- The old man has moves
Morales - 1B - .264
Quinlan - 3B - .247
Murphy - CF - .258
Molina - C - .186
Kennedy - 2B - .274
Santana - P - 4.64

Rays:
Lugo - SS - .254
Crawford - LF - .301
Gomes - DH - .259
Wigginton - RF - .280
Huff - 3B - .186
Cantu - 2B - .291
Hall - C - .263
Lee - 1B - .212
Hollins - CF - .252
Kazmir - P - 3.15

Kazmir, a lefty, has brought about another line-up combination from Scioscia, we'll see if this works any better than the last one.

"Black Magic" and his minions: 6/14
Satan's Fish Folly: 3/5

lame

rivera batting #2, quinlan plays

by yeswecan on Jun 6, 2006 3:58 PM PDT up reply actions

Weak

GA gets the night off; I can live with that.

But what a pathetic lineup. Juan Rivera in the #2 spot? With his .229 average and similar OBP? Wha?

And seriously...Quinlan? His average is down to .247, and he's been going up against mostly lefties lately.

What's wrong with Erick Aybar? I mean, as long as the guy's on the roster (and a switch hitter to boot), why not let him take a shot at 3B? Let him hit in the leadoff spot; he's got speed. That way Cabrera stays in his customary #2 spot. Vlad bats 3rd, Salmon 4th, Morales 5th, Rivera 6th, followed by the Murph, Molina & AK.

Rivera hitting 2nd? Sorry, I can't accept that.

by jjackflash on Jun 6, 2006 4:04 PM PDT up reply actions

agreed

Might as well throw Aybar a bone if you are going to mess with the lineup so much.

If they don't go hard after the ball and make the

plays they did there wouldn't have been a play close enough to get the outs. That is called a nice play. Outs are called by Umps and do not take away from plays that are made.

SO, re AK

is he worth say 22m over 4 years, when we have a logjam of promising infielders? Aybar, Izturis, Kendrick et al?

by UK Halo on Jun 6, 2006 5:05 PM PDT reply actions

can anyone of them hit or catch?

Halo Country

by cupie on Jun 6, 2006 5:06 PM PDT up reply actions

Well

there's no such thing as a sure thing.

But on balance, if we could use that money for something we are definitely short of, like a power hitter to bat behind Vlad, I think it's a risk worth taking.

by UK Halo on Jun 6, 2006 5:09 PM PDT up reply actions

Especially since

next year there is no Salmon, and there are long term questions about GA.

by UK Halo on Jun 6, 2006 5:11 PM PDT up reply actions

If you haven't noticed over AK's life as an Angel

he doesn't hit either. I'm sorry but an empty .300 Avg. or a .260 Avg w/ 10-15 HRs isn't special. He is a great second baseman but I guarentee both Aybar and Kendrick will be substantially better major league hitters and Aybar is a superior defensive player at a more demanding position.

by riktermiller on Jun 6, 2006 5:09 PM PDT up reply actions

A gaurantee...

Wow. So Aybar and Kendrick will be a better second baseman than AK.

Halo Country

by cupie on Jun 6, 2006 5:32 PM PDT up reply actions

No

Aybar is a better defender. Howie is a better hitter. AK is nice he isn't special. They have a name for organizations that block special players with okay players. They are called LOSERS. AK has been great and I hope he finishes his career with the Angels as a winner but I have to say nice knowing you and good luck with your next team. That is the burden that winners are faced with.

interesting idea!

i like it. hell, it's baseball -- i'm sure a solid 2B is a serviceable 3B or even shortstop (anybody remember Eckstein)? i think people lock players too much to certain positions. a good baseball althlete is probably more versatile than we think.

No offense to anybody but take the emotion

away from evaluating Angel players. AK is nice but he isn't worth limiting the organization with a three or four year contract.

I'm not even sure

we should release AK, but as I said, there are no right answers, only conjecture.

And btw, there are no guarantees about AK's future performance either. This is why GM's get paid so much.....

by UK Halo on Jun 6, 2006 5:18 PM PDT up reply actions

There is no release involved. He is a FA after

the season. He is w/o an organization until he signs a contract.

Sorry, i meant not re-sign (or try to)

by UK Halo on Jun 6, 2006 5:21 PM PDT up reply actions

CONTRACT UP

He is a free agent after the season, we're not releasing him.

No way are they resigning him. He will get 7 million ayear for three years somewhere. Easy, maybe more even.

So

with OC, Izturis, Morales, Aybar, Kendrick, Kotchman, D MAc, not forgetting Figgins and Quinlan, infield is not a major priority.

A 40 homer guy, however, is.

by UK Halo on Jun 6, 2006 5:28 PM PDT up reply actions

There isn't a 40HR guy that is going to appear.

The closest fit would be Miguel Cabrera and the Marlins haven't made him avialable officially.

Well, there is one guy

with 715 homers who could DH....

by UK Halo on Jun 6, 2006 5:30 PM PDT up reply actions

716 last night.

and that would be a waste. Bonds can hardly run and isn't hitting at a level close to justify what his contract demands will be. Not to mention that the Angels wouldn't put up with his shit for one minute.

by riktermiller on Jun 6, 2006 5:33 PM PDT up reply actions

I'm just playing

devils advocate (it being 06-06-06).

I agree that, personality-wise, he would no way fit in an Angels clubhouse.

But as to the financial considerations, they might be offset by the peripheral benefits if he got close to 755 in an Angel jersey.

Hud

just said the funniest thing ever...

he waxing about how great Ervin was pitching...

and then the faux pas, "Figgy is playing center as a defensive repla..." pause...

"Tommy Murphy..."

the same anecdotes

the same stories, the same descriptions, the same nicknames, the same analysis. it would put me to sleep if he wasn't so over-animated.

a couple nice at bats....

by Molina tonight. Gunned out Crawford too. Definitely not a perfect game, but pretty solid.

I think the Angels are going to miss Butcher more

than Joe in the end. Once Black takes a managers position Butcher would have been the perfect replacement due to his relationships w/ homegrown pitchers.

Feh

Pitching coaches rarely make good managers. That's why I doubt Black leaves for a managerial job.

atta boy Juan Rivera!

Juan is a prick tease.

He won't make hard contact for another week.

never know...

he helped carry us at the end of last year. Maybe he's getting going. Easiest spot in the lineup is in front of Vladdy. That's what got Cabrera going last year and has probably helped him start hot for once this year.

How's the lineup looking now, guys?

you mean...

before or after Figgins came back in?? Jk

Just got here

Looks like they got 1/2 of the usual Ervin Santana probabilities straight -- a night game -- but the other half -- at home -- is not present. Why are we winning?
