Angels owner Arte Moreno said today that the club remains interested in acquiring an ace starter and has not heard anything that would preclude the pursuit of the likes of Toronto's Roy Halladay and Cleveland's Cliff Lee.

I am happy to introduce All Star Third Baseman, Chone Figgins.
Hmmm.....
Interesting…

We won't get either...
Whenever Arte brings up things like this in the media, we lose out. I recall a “big bat promise” that went unfulfilled one offseason. Just don’t get our hopes up, Arte.
(I still love you as our team’s owner, though)
I love this team.
Further, this kind of comment puts pressure on the GM to get a deal done. Any deal. You lose leverage and take away the element of surprise — the trademarks of the NINJA!
I love this team.

oh come on man!
GMJ was that big bat! What a player he’s been for us!
Seriously though, Wood should just pack his bags and book a flight now. With the way that Aybar’s been playing there’s no way he’s going anywhere. And Izzy wouldn’t be enough, so I see Wood going bye bye
RIP Nick. We will miss you!
this makes me
sad smiley face :(

I agree regarding Wood
But realistically, if the Angels are down on him – what makes us think we can get maximum value for him from other teams? On the depth chart he’s behind Figgins, Aybar and Izzy. Hell, Q is getting more at bats than Wood!
We’d probably be selling low right now; no way do I think he could be the centerpiece of a deal for Lee or Halladay.
When the owner is talking about trades
There’s no blockbuster deals happening.

Ninja a bit too slow on that one
RIP Nick Adenhart.

Arte has been a hell of a lot better in business negotiations over his life than I have.
Therefore, in Arte I must, gladly, trust.
We don't have a Bullpen. We have a Cowpen. Before we get to call it a Bullpen these guys gotta grow a pair.
But owning a baseball team usually isn't a money-making proposition,
not until you sell the team. I think the Angels might not fit that mold but I’m not sure.
.... as sexy as socks on a rooster.
That Mark Buehrle guy is pretty decent.
Hooters anyone?

Yayyyyyyyy!!!!
more bullshit rumors, just like that kazmir rumor its all bullshit…
They want power, We want respect...
Exactly!
This is an incredibly bold statement. Baseball is a numbers-heavy sport but the numbers which aren’t disclosed are the financial condition of each team. I would love to review the audited balance sheets, statement of cash flows, income statements, and the Notes to financial statements for various teams. Of course none of the teams are obligated to release financial information as they are private entities, but it would be rather fascinating if they did.
