PrintThe MLB Daily Dish site has the full story at this link but minor league free agent Greg Smith has signed with the Angels. Smith has bounced around as parts of two infamous trades: He went from the Arizona Diamondbacks to the Oakland Athletics in the Dan Haren trade and from the A's to the Colorado Rockies in the Matt Holliday trade. He is an Angel.. or at least a Salt Lake Bee, now. Smith is a left handed starting pitcher.

dude, my 5 year old knows how to put it in the DVD player and start the movie (damn disney autoplay trains these kids to play their movies)
So she gets up early in the morning or waits until my wife and I arent paying attention and then puts it in, like daily.
She even begged me to dress up as rider for halloween so she could be rapunzel since my son decided he wanted to be a pirate.

Wife. Right? You know you are the one playing it constantly :)
In the long run men hit only what they aim at. Therefore, though they should fail immediately, they had better aim at something high.

Grant Brisbee stated that the Rangers are better this season than last.
I know they lost CJ and signed Darvish, they’re also pretty old.
Is his statement correct? I think it’s debatable.
Official prediction: The Angels will win the AL west this season.

It's absolutely debatable.
I think they may have broken even. A lot riding on the thin, feminine shoulders of Yu Darvish.

Based on the picture he has that mythical pitch.....
the blur ball….. causes the batter to lose focus of the ball, almost unhittable
When I flip a coin I dont say heads or tails, I say Halos or Spurs
did you just jinx the injury bug?
That is brilliant. By jinxing the injury bug the injury bug will fail.

Depth is a good thing to have
It’s amazing how many times I’ve said that this year. I love the Jedi.
I remember seeing him pitch for the Lancaster Jethawks
He seemed to have pretty good velocity back then, but he’s been injured since then and never the same.
btw – Mark Reynolds played shortstop for that Jethawks team. Believe it.

Wow. Certainly not someone I would expect to be playing SS.
But then again, Miguel Cabrera played 168 of his 368 minor league games at SS as well.
A possible light at the end of the tunnel????
I hope so.

How did Billie Beane ever let this guy loose?
He’s obviously the Scott Hattiberg of LH Starters.
I love this team, I love this blog, I will never doubt Arte again and I can't wait to see what happens this year. That is all.

Greg Smith and Brad Mills.
Starter depth, yes, but also recognition of need for experienced left-handedness on the pitching staff…just in case.
Takahashi worries me.
While many were bitching here last season, I believe it was good that Scioscia “appeared” to be coddling SDowns.
Halos Heaven, The Daily Dish, and the Angels were holding out on us:
Smith was actually signed over 10 days ago.
DiPoto must know something about this guy from his days in Arizona
Never hurts to keep the farm system stocked.

Ranger Killer!
Actually, they do kinda suck against lefties.

Could Greg Smith possibly have a more boring name?
Don't call me Bugs. Although Bugs Bunny could do it all on the baseball field.
I actually know a guy called John Smith
and he’s not boring at all. Quite entertaining.
Mind you the Smiths were lucky when naming their child, their surname isn’t Head or Hunt.
Otherwise the names Richard and Michael leap out at you.
Don't call me Bugs. Although Bugs Bunny could do it all on the baseball field.
I once knew a man with a wooden leg named Smith.

I wanna hear this story
At least the Latino players have an “up” in that their names don’t sound boring even if they are. Cases in point: Jean Segura (John Secure) and Jose Mesa (Joe Table).
Don't call me Bugs. Although Bugs Bunny could do it all on the baseball field.
What was the name of his other leg?
If the Halos don't care about the way they play, then why should I?
Give the man a Cupie Doll!
Thanks for getting the joke.
