In 2008 the Angels were 100-62 with these players:

Catcher: Jeff Mathis
First Base: Mark Teixeira
Second Base: Howie Kendrick
Third Base: Chone Figgins
Shortstop: Erick Aybar
Left Field: Garret Anderson
Center Field: Torii Hunter
Right Field: Vladimir Guerrero
Designated Hitter: Juan Rivera

2008 Angels Pitching Staff
John Lackey
Jered Weaver
Jon Garland
Joe Saunders
Ervin Santana

Ok lots of people are panicking about the 2011 season being a dissapointment, If we sign Vladdy our lineup would be

Catcher: Mike Napoli

First Base: Kendry Morales

Second Base: Howie Kendrick

Shortstop: Erick Aybar

Third Base: Alberto Callaspo

Left Field: Bobby Abreu/ Juan Rivera

Center Field: Peter " Gorgeous" Bourjos

Right Field: Torii Hunter

Pitching Staff 2011

Jered Weaver

Dan Haren

Ervin Santana

Joel Pineiro

Scott Kazmir

IF the Angels do sign Vladdy we need to find a new home for Jeff Mathis and Brandon Wood.

Vladdy will most likely sign for 1 year 6-8 million with a club option.

Lets compare 2008 with my projected 2011 lineup.

The only differences are Teixeira, Mathis, Figgins, and Garret Anderson.

A Healthy Morales can outhit Mark Teixeira any day of the week.

Mathis does not compare  to Napoli offensively.  In 2010 Mathis threw out 23% of the runners while Napoli threw out 27%.

Figgins may be our only difference as he could steal more bags than Callaspo and get on base more often, but Callaspo has shown signs of being able to hit base hits.

As for Garret Anderson, Abreu is definitely better than him at this point of his career.

All we need to do to turn the 2011 season around is to sign Vladdy and dump Jeff Mathis.

 Our pitching staff this year is of course better

Weaver has proven himself to be an ace.

Dan Haren is going to dominate.

Ervin Santana is truly a cy young candidate with electric stuff if he could work on his mechanics.

Joel Pineiro is a really good pitcher who knows how to get outs.

Our only question mark is Scott Kazmir, Will he be SCOTT KAZMIR in 2011?
