A future stud

It’s Stephen Smith who’s really high on him, calling Will the best prospect in the system.

Rex Hudler risding Cust

if you are going to be a run producer, striking out looking 64 times is not acceptable, you gotta be fouling off those pitches…

Suzuki Fly Out

Weaver gotta get some work in no matter how embarrasisng……

Any word on Jered's velocity?

When he had shoulder problems in 2007, his fastball was down a few mph.

Ain't no stoppin' us now. We got the groove!!

Kendrick batting 2nd

Rex got to see Howie’s new baby OWEN born on Christmas morning. Terry laments that the kid will not be getting as many presents. Howie flies out to Jack Cust.

Owen Kendrick sounds like the name of a NASCAR driver.

Cabrera

pop to Aybar …inning over.

by Rev Halofan on Mar 15, 2009 1:34 PM PDT up reply actions  

Just warming up

Great pitchers, especially great fastball pitchers, historically have shitty first innings in the fist third of the season.

by Rev Halofan on Mar 15, 2009 1:35 PM PDT up reply actions  

It seems Weaver has more than his share of bad first innings before he settles down.

Off topic

I’m not part of the “Hey you kids get off my lawn!” generation yet, but what does this mean?

I see it, I think “less than 3”. But this is some kind of new netspeak that the ‘kids’ are using these days.

Thank you!

I wonder what happened. I used to be one of those “meddling kids” with their stupid dog. Somehow I’ve become Mr. Anderson, the carnival owner.

All of our pitchers have turned in to pitch to contact tossers.

i love how little my gf knows about sports but how much she knows about the angels because of me.

She probably couldnt tell you what a rush attempt was but knows the intricacies of scioscia’s philosophy

That was pretty cool

1-2-3 inning for Will Smith, making his big league camp debut. Even k’d a guy, and no one got it out of the inning.

by rghan on Mar 15, 2009 2:43 PM PDT reply actions  

Love the fact...

…we started our A- team and they brought their A- team! Thru 6+ they are handing us our asses AT our place…and rather easily at that! :((

In my best semi-sarcastic voice…“Frankly I am unamused and unimpressed!” Anytime you play the A’s you must kick their asses! Spring or not!

ok, I forgot about Abreu at DH so I will call this our B++ team…doesn’t change my thoughts much…

No Vlad is a given!

Mariner’s 08, dude. that is all.

Kotch would've had that.

"Anytime you play the A's you must kick their asses."

Dude, not going to happen every time. In the 19 games we play against them this season, I assure you they will win a few.

Understood...1 run on 5 hits with close to your best team on the field...
