Angels ALDS Roster Posted

The Angels' ALDS roster was posted over at angelsbaseball.com. Here's the full roster:

Pitchers
John Lackey
Jered Weaver
Scott Kazmir
Joe Saunders
Ervin Santana
Matt Palmer
Darren Oliver
Jason Bulger
Kevin Jepsen
Brian Fuentes

Catchers
Jeff Mathis
Mike Napoli
Bobby Wilson

Infielders
Kendry Morales
Howard Kendrick
Maicer Izturis
Erick Aybar
Chone Figgins
Robb Quinlan

Outfielders
Juan Rivera
Torii Hunter
Bobby Abreu
Gary Matthews Jr.
Reggie Willits

Designated Hitter
Vladimir Guerrero

Didn't see it posted anywhere else. Looks pretty solid to me. That bullpen looks pretty good, up until you get to Brian Fuentes. Does anyone think that Brandon Wood should be on the roster over Q? I dig the 3 catcher setup, setting up Napoli to be available for pinch hitting in late game situations. GMJ's done a decent job pinch hitting, and having Reggie there for pinch running situations is good.

3 hours to go, can't wait!

What?

No Love for the Jr.? Show total coverage on the linkage please.

lol

You can blame SB Nation’s auto-linking for that. Also for the non-linking of Howard Kendrick (maybe Howie Kendrick gets properly linked?) and Juan Rivera (no love for the bat sniffer).

Bat sniffer?

What?

You might be joking...

but if you aren’t, check out Juan tonight. Sniffs his bat more often than not between pitches.

Do it for Nick '09

I see--I thought I had a hunch that that was the case...But thanks for the tip!

I’ll definitely have to check it out!

RIP Nick Adenhart.

Have you really never noticed that before?

Apologies in advance.

He always sniffs it after he fouls it off.

Must be the smell of the wood after coming in contact with a 90 MPH object. Juan will sniff the bat even when he doesnt foul it off though. Weird habit I guess.

Haha...after coming into contact with a 90MPH object...

So…hard…to refrain…from…your mom jokes…

RIP Nick Adenhart.

Q? WTF?

Why? I don’t know if Wood should be the guy but I guess he’s there out of man love. Or to keep the bench nice and warm in Boston.

Buck Foston!

Hmm

Why do so many people treat Wood as if he’s an all star? He’s barely hit .200 in the majors. How can he be of more help to us than Q?

Do you really think Q's gonna get in the games

IMHO, I’d rather have someone who has played a significant amount of games at 1st base as the backup (as long as he stays way in the back, unless we’re up by 20 runs) than someone who has played a hand full at 1st.
