A pipeline of talent, welcome to Anaheim.
This has been a very WEIRD TWO days...........
Let’s keep this great stuff going our beloved ANGELS!
The second player going to Atlanta, Double-A right-hander Stephen Marek, has a live arm attached to a bad body

A live head attached to a dead body...
would better summarize me.

I heard Mark Teixeira got traded to our team today
Other than that, the weather in Inverness is cloudy and it is expected to rain tomorrow. My wife and son are coming home tomorrow from a 12-day holiday.

The best underdog story ever is CLEARLY the 2002 Angels.
A bunch of nobodies (national media wise) vs the best hitter ever.

Write to the Angels front office. Get Tim Salmon's number 15 retired!

Just as pointless as the “Who’s Now” thing

Welp, Mikes giving John the ball in the ninth. Not sure I like it, John’s arm needs rest. But Mike knows what he’s doing, I guess.

How everyone looks disappointed in the Angel’s dugout
Reminds me of that night in Texas last year where John got 8 1/3
then gave up 3 runs.

this day has been absolutely
AMAZING!
no hitter or not, i’m SO excited.

To be honest toast, I don't know what the fuck you're talking about and I'm too tired to care
I wanted Lackey to get the no-hitter. I’m happy with the win, and the series win over the Sox. I’m happy with the Teixeira trade.
