Polling for a Solution

Right now, we all feel down, after losing to Fremont at home, but what is the answer? C.C. Sabathia? Jr. Griffey? Ichiro and Barry Bonds? We don’t have the pieces for a trade, and if one could be strung together, would it be worth mortgaging our future? I wish I had a funny joke or anecdote, I don’t, losing sucks. I have yet to utter an F-bomb, FUCK CHOAKLAND AND THIER CRAPPY COLORS AND STADIUM ! ! !

my vote is to give a shot to willits and rivera. I think that if the angels are gonna give rivera more than 2 starts a month, they should sit him down, and tell him so. It seemed like he was trying to make a splash and jack every ball he saw out of the park to make an impression. If he was told hed start and his job was secure for a week or so, then i think the production wuold be alot better

PLEASE GOD LET THE ANGELS SIGN BARRY LAMAR BONDS!

I dont like that he used steroids, but come on who wasnt back then? He will jumpstart this offense in a heart beat at DH. We can pay him league minimum since we all know he would LOVE to play for the LAofA

so i would say NONE of the ABOVE….....but then the offense still sucks…......and then im still beeeeeetchin…......so i will offer a solution that isnt there…....

Rays are stalking Holliday from Rockies….....so GO get him and get rid of Reggie, Rivera, Adenhart and co….............

long thought out post that took me a solid half hour.

Then the “back button” on my mouse struck!

Woe is me.

that would sell the farm for a half season of power-ish hitting from a guy who is going to want a multi-year contract but can barely walk to the top of the dugout steps.

and i realize that adam dunn is universally disliked by joe morgan types, but he is one of the top power hitters in the game, and landing him would take a lot more than reggie willits and nick adenhart. think howie kendrick or ervin santana. not that i’m advocating that. i just think you’re selling dunn way too short.

I’d rather burn the fucking stadium to the ground and scatter the franchise to the 4 winds than have that son of a bitch in Halo colors.

Forget Griffey, Bonds or Dunn.

1) Do a salary dump on GMJ. Admit the mistake and move on.
2) Make a run at Matt Holiday, Grady Sizemore or some other young stud hitter
3) Keep Rivera, get him ABs

on 830 AM shortly. Gee, wonder what they are gonna ask him about?

i was honestly just opening it up for debate. it’s very interesting

That is who I want.

I dont hate barry, but i would advise against signing him unless it is part of a major OF change (invloving getting rid of GMJ). We already have 6 OFers. We dont need anyother (well, he really wouldnt be able to play the OF, since he is horrible in the field). He would be a fulltime DH. And he doesnt fit with our philosophy at all. If he bats 4th, infront of torii (would scoscia do back to back lefties), he will walk about 25% of the time. He miht not be able to score on a double. Say goodbye to first to 3rd. say goodbye to agressive baseball when bonds steps to the plate (or on the bases). I dont believe in “clogging the bases” (the term is stupid, baser runners are a good thing) but bonds wont be able to run the bases, and with our singles hitting lineup, it will take 3 hits after he gets on base to score a run.

personally, i think this team wide funk is temporary as it has it us the last few seasons. we should at least give it a week to work itself out. THEN, if we are serious about adding another bat, reagins has to to his due dilligence and look ast all options. which means, giving bonds a look.

would be too much of a distraction. Don’t even have to get into the rest of it.

while Desmond takes third lathered with Joe Buck’s idiotic commentary about how Desmond caused Barry to whiff will never be the same if Bonds becomes an Angel.

Doesn’t signing Bonds sound like sleeping with your older step-sister?
