ANAHEIM, CA - DECEMBER 10: C.J. Wilson speaks at a public press conference introducing newly signed Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim players Albert Pujols and Wilson at Angel Stadium on December 10, 2011 in Anaheim, California. (Photo by Stephen Dunn/Getty Images)

The Angels signed the best available free agent pitcher in December, 2011. It was one of the greatest moments of the year. It got overshadowed by a bigger signing, but consider all the pain and animosity of the past few offseasons and appreciate how great this truly was.

If we hadn't got the best player of the past decade on the same day

This would have been so much more huge. Pumped to see what our rotation can do this year. Anyone else started counting down the days to spring training now christmas is done?!

Saw that!

He had a lot of tackles and I was immediately thinking of the joint marketing possibilities. Two world champions? :)

Don't call me Bugs. Although Bugs Bunny could do it all on the baseball field.

Wow, I had this move at #3 or #4

This is getting really interesting, wonder where Santana’s no hitter comes in?

CONGER, CONGER, CONGER !!!

But I guess we find out in a few days. Pretty sure what No. 1 is gonna be :)

Just to recap

11. Wrestling mask record
10. Tony Reagins “resigns”
9. Weaver gets All-Star Game start
8. Dipoto becomes new GM
7. CJ Wilson signs as Angel
-————————-
Ervin’s no-hitter has to be in there somewhere (prob No.2?) but also breakout seasons for Bourjos and Trumbo perhaps? Mike Trout’s first HR? … I know what No. 1 is, but I’m stuck on some others. Nice game, Rev
