Watching Trout is exciting

That last time I was this glued to the screen during an AB, with no RISP… Was the days of Vladdy in his prime!!

Why

On Earth would anyone care about ROY when it comes at the expense of winning games now? ROY is a meaningless award. The only thing it does is cost the Angels more money when arbitration rolls around.

Without buying a free agent, the Angels need a marqee name for their marketing plan next season.

It seems like the Dodgers used to pump out ROYs year after year. The Angels have a shot at it this year and next.

If it means missing out on the playoffs, then yes; but the possibility of having Trumbo and Trout back to back is enticing until it becomes impractical.

did u fall into a sar-CHaSM?

i took phi’s post as a joke. I am laughing quite hysterically. Maybe the joke’s on me?

I love this team.

Abreu leading off?

What were his splits the last two months? If we need a lefty DH, at this point I would prefer to use Branyan.

It is weird how Sosh preaches "rolls" in the bullpen

But doesn’t apply that logic to the lineup. Random playing days. A different lineup each night. Conger has no idea what he is doing here. It’s a conundrum, I say.

I love how when our team scores 13 runs, and has a great inning, the first thing sosh does is to change it.

    Is he going for the record of most lineups in a season or what? Vernon should be batting 8th. Trout should hit higher.

Watch the dugout shots of Wells. I'm not sure Trout and Wells get along so well.

The body language tells it all. Hunter sits between Wells and Trout on the bench, and when Trout hit his dingers the other night Trout and Hunter were celebrating but Wells didn’t even acknowledge Trout or even crack a smile.

It just baffles me...

   I mean I understand the competition but the guy is getting paid 60 million for the next three years no matter what happens.

by Nashdiesel on Sep 1, 2011 5:55 PM PDT up reply actions  

I am totally fine

With Mathis being Weav’s personal catcher, Wilson being Santana’s and Conger starting every other game that is pitched by anyone else.

Mathis'

Skills sure did seem to help Weav Sunday night in Texas.

by Howie the Halo on Sep 1, 2011 6:30 PM PDT up reply actions  

Conger hasn't earned that right yet. Why do you think he deserves to start over Wilson?

While Conger may very well be the catcher of the future he hasn’t exactly lit-it up offesively..He did get a significant number of starts in the first half and failed to impress.

Soth teases us too much.

He puts up a great lineup one day and a shitty one the next. I hope this lineup continues with a platoon of Conger/Wilson. Likely won’t happen.
