Heres a nice lil blurb in the preview section from our friends at ESPN:
With tight races and surprising contenders emerging in the AL East and Central this season, the West-leading Los Angeles Angels haven’t gotten the attention that a league leader usually receives. A marquee matchup with the defending World Series champions might change that.
Wow fellas? you think so? LOVE YOU ESPN…....

Yea, that's how it is on the team site now.
Weaver was the original probable for Monday.

Actually, I guess in someways it makes sense.
Having Santana and Saunders going up against the 3-4 guys of most other teams gives us a much better chance of winning.

yeah i just dont like the idea of pitching garland and saunders back to back
but i guess because its R-L it works a lil better

Where Howie took a BB and hit two HR's in the same game...
Naps update
ANAHEIM—Angels catcher Mike Napoli tested his inflamed right shoulder, taking some swings during batting practice on Friday at Angel Stadium before the Halos faced the Red Sox in the first of three weekend games. It was the first time he has performed baseball activities since going on the disabled list retroactive to July 6.
“Everything felt good,” Napoli said. “It was a little sore yesterday, but there was no pain today when I was swinging, and that’s a good sign. In a couple more days I’ll throw, and we’ll see how that goes.”
Napoli is eligible to come off the DL when the Indians open a three-game series against the Angels at Angel Stadium on Monday.
The shoulder has troubled him in some fashion, Napoli admitted, all season.

Howie, keep doing what you’ve been doing. Sooner or later you’ll stop hitting them right to people.

He held it down after GA got us the lead back.

No, I appreciate the points you're making.
I’m just saying that if I respond to norcal, the thought was directed to him, not you. You can add on or reply as you like, I just don’t want you to be confused.
~Till the Halo burns out...
right but then after that........
he had a 5 run lead…..and then it got larger…...all im saying…....is…..I want to see Lackey pitching against this team…..when the offense isnt as good…..and beat them…....

by norcaliangelsfan on Jul 18, 2008 9:25 PM PDT up reply actions
I want us to win.
Lackey can’t control what the offense does or doesn’t do. He put up a QS against the Red Sox, and that’s all there is to it. Hopefully he does even better the next time he sees them.

No, they'll show the HR, the awful play, then cut straight to the final score
and mention GA’s 4-4 in passing.

Bandwagoners can be cruel when your team sucks.
The tune has changed since we won the WS. There were a lot more Angels hats around when I was in LA in 2004. I wore mine to some games at Dodgers Stadium just to show that I could. (The Cubs were in town, and I was with some Chi-town friends)
~Till the Halo burns out...
I always get crap from my family down there........because they are still big Dodger fans....
they never understood why i rooted for the angels as a kid…...but i just wanted to be different…....thats why i dont like UCLA either…..and I get crap for that…..

Soth feels sorry for the Red Sox, so he brings in Speier to pitch.
And he hits a batter while I type this.
Franky's probably too busy
still laughing at Manny’s play.

a scoreless inning for Speier
I am in disbelief
Where Howie took a BB and hit two HR's in the same game...
An HBP though.
His control is still shaky, and against the Sox in a game like this, it’s an invitation to start a beanball war.
