Jered Weaver vs. Billy Buckner
Angels-Diamondbacks Preview - FOX Sports on MSN
The Angels have built up baseball's best interleague record exclusively against the West, and they'll try to continue their dominance Friday night when they play the first of three against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field.
Angels' Juan Rivera is no longer left out - Los Angeles Times
The transformation from afterthought to solid defender and middle-of-the-order masher, it seems, required only a bigger role -- and a healthy leg.
Power Rankings - MLB - Yahoo! Sports
The Yankees, Brewers, Phillies, Rangers and Mets dip. The Cardinals get a boost along with Detroit (Angels moved up one spot to #9).

And here's the video clip:

Pretty scary shit.
MLB All Star Game - CBSSports.com
CBSSports.com projects a 31-man All-Star roster for each league, including at least one representative from each team. The All-Star game is July 14 in St. Louis.
They project two Angels, Torii Hunter and Joe Saunders (what no Jered Weaver?)
Nine Seems Like a Common Number For The Angels - Bleacher Report
Here are five reasons why the number nine is significant for the Angels:
Ask Torii Hunter anything - FOX Sports on MSN
This week pregame host Chris Rose has attracted Los Angeles Angels centerfielder Torii Hunter as his guest. Email Chris Rose your MLB question for Torii Hunter and maybe he'll answer it during the MLB on FOX pregame show.
Should be pretty cool, Hunter gives good interview.
Figgins deserving of All-Star spot - angelsbaseball.com
The Angels' Chone Figgins' numbers clearly are All-Star caliber. He is tied for third in the AL in average (.330), fourth in runs scored (53) and steals (23) and fifth in hits (89).
For the over-40 guys out there, we lost a part of our youth:

I have to admit I recognized MJ's talent
but I was not a big fan.
Ironically, at the time I DD NOT recognize Farrah’s acting talent, but I was a huge fan. She should so much strength, character and courage at the end of her life that it was almost ironic that she passed on the same day as Michael.
RIP Farrah.
This season just seems jinxed. If it can go wrong, it does
you're not a dick
and I didn’t say it was ironic

You used “irony” twice in your statement.
I love this team.

Twice actually.
But more to the point-
Irony is the fact that Fawcett made a living being a hot piece of ass, and yet it was that same ass that caused her death.
Apologies in advance.
Poor taste, yet ironic.
I love this team.

I most certainly had a poster in my dorm room of Farrah..
…the same one shown above. If I didn’t, I could simply have gone to 3/4’s of the other guy’s dorm rooms to see it. Yep, she (and that poster) were that popular. Remember how many gals of the day had to have the same hair style? RIP Farrah.
I enjoyed MJ in the early to mid-80’s (Thriller years). But when he stated getting “weird”, I stopped paying attention. His “affection” for little boys was the last straw. I am disgusted by ANYONE that abuses children….pop starts, priests, on “regular” people. I can only hope there’s a special place in Hell for those that steal a child’s innocence for their own peculiar satisfaction. Sorry, but I cannot wish that he rest in peace.
not to be a stickler, but in the intrests of fairness
he was never convicted…..course, neither was OJ
Get Aybar off this team. Now.
Two icons, two deaths, too much.
Farrah, Fonzie, Vinnie Barbarino, and Pop Rocks. That was the mid-70s for me.
"We have a great closer, one of the best in the game, and I wouldn’t trade him for anyone else." (Matt Palmer, after the latest Fuentes meltdown)
Really of topic, but my wife and I were talking about...
TV shows that defined the decade (Vinnie Barbarino reminded me of this):
70’s – M*A*S*H and Happy Days
80’s – Miami Vice
90’s – Friends and Seinfeld
Any others?
"I see great things in baseball. It's our game, the American game. It will repair our losses and be a blessing to us."
90's I'd say The Simpsons
Whatever dude.

Don't drink Coke with those Pop Rocks.
You know, that whole thing about Mikey.

Rangers pitchers and HBP
Ranger pitcher, Scott Feldman, hit D’backs outfielder, Eric Brynes, on the hand in the second inning of last night’s game. He broke his hand and Brynes will be out 4 – 8 weeks following surgery. We draw Vincente Padilla and Scott Feldman in the first two games of the next series with the Rangers.
I am the Iron Man
Farrah on the wall? No, but
Jaclyn Smith in white bikini against blue background in 6th grade desk, yes.
Off the Wall + Thriller are forever classic, but as MJ went the Howard Hughes route (or maybe more apropos here, the Leonard Tose route) and then the allegations, it was difficult not to believe that there was some kind of inappropriate behavior and surely any adult taking advantage of any child in any way is UNFORGIVABLE. I did, however, also find it difficult not to be touched by Brian Oxman who, in a brief call to Biggsy, sounded about as lost and heartbroken as anybody I’ve ever heard on the radio…
Brian Oxman was on every TV and Radio show in America yesterday......
Telling everyone Jackson died of every drug imaginable, when really he was making this all up just so he could pimp HIMSELF and his LAW PRACTICE on national television all day. He is no doctor, and had no contact with Jackson in his final days.
I am the Iron Man
Man, Wi, I can't put my finger on it,
But I’m liking your posts more and more.
Angel Pitching (Adenhart), Angel Defense - get past that.
