Geez
Angels down 2-1 to Boston, bottom of the 7th. They’ve got runners on 1st and 2nd against Beckett.
Reggie Willits just sac bunted. The announcers are fawning all over that, talking about how it is Angels baseball, that’s what they teach and how great they play that way, blah blah blah.
So the BoSox, of course, walk Howie Kendrick to bring Jeff Mathis up. Erick Aybar hits for Mathis.
So you took the bat out of the hands of Willits (a high OBP guy who doesn’t ground into GIDPs) and Kendrick so that Aybar can bat.
And Aybar hits a 3 run double
So Mike Scioscia makes me look dumb for complaining.

Scioscia...
may be the most overrated manager in the game imo.

that doesn't mean they aren't lucky
They are getting great pitching from Ervin Santana and Joe Saunders. I can understand Lackey and Weaver doing a good job at least, and Garland being a decent arm as well, but Saunders and Santana have had first halves that I doubt they ever have again.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.
-The Outlaw
Santana is that good..
Not just the starters though.. their 7th ,8th, and 9th inning guys are as good as it gets.
Santana is a head case
He’s got promising stuff, but he isn’t this good as a pitcher right now.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.
-The Outlaw
i'm banking on Saunders and Santana...
...to start stinking it up pretty soon.

AP article
“I don’t see us trading our future for a rental situation,” general manager Jon Daniels said.LINK
.
“I’m hard-pressed to think of a scenario that really makes sense for us to talk about (trading Bradley),” Daniels said. “Guys feed off his intensity, feed off his competitive spirit.”
I like both of those quotes
I don’t want to see Bradley traded unless we’re blown away and I’d hate to see them try to make some blockbuster deal for the many missing pieces we need to make the playoffs.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.
-The Outlaw
do you think we are going to re-sign bradley?
If so, terms?
by booyahcaveman on Jul 19, 2008 5:30 PM CDT up reply actions
I hope we do
and can see something around 3 years/25-30 million. Ideally it would be 2 years with a 3rd year team option though. If we don’t sign him, take the 2 draft picks and draft some high potential talent with them.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.
-The Outlaw
See
while I agree he isnt a necessarily an automatic trade chip I do believe that signing him without some sort of option 3rd yr is a mistake. Looking back at his career he just hasnt been able to stay healthy. I just have this feeling he will be traded because another team will be desperate and overpay. Im hoping the AL East triumvirate of the Rays, Sox, and Yankees come calling and bid against each other. So is his Type A free agent status a lock right now?
by booyahcaveman on Jul 19, 2008 5:44 PM CDT up reply actions
Seeing Gagne last season
I wouldn’t say he’s a lock, but its a pretty good bet I think that he will be. And looking back at his career, he has never had the luxury of being able to DH to stay healthy. I think that that will help him stay healthy a lot more.
By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.

I think that’s more money than you want to pay for a reliever.
by Adam J. Morris on Jul 19, 2008 5:49 PM CDT up reply actions
Agreed
I just hope they earmark that money to go after Sabathia or Sheets. Seems like Sheets would take 15-17 per and Sabathia 18-21.

i think sheets is more realistic than sabathia.
but i still have questions about sheets health

My guess
If you want Sheets on a 3 year deal, you are talking $60 million.

I dont think we are getting him for anything shorter than 5 yrs though. My guess is 5/75-80.

Vallejo has demonstrated more pop
And he might be faster. Casilla had pretty solid contact rates, but Vallejo has been as good or better at getting on base in his minor league career. The more I see of Vallejo, the more I think he is seriously underrated

The more of his numbers and scouting reports you see
and now getting to see him some at Frisco, the guy is a legit prospect. He plays plus defense, has plus speed, and has made huge strides at the plate. And he is only 21. I am a fan.

and they traded a solid 25 year old closer, it then yes they are in sell sell sell mode

Mil is denying its sttreet.....
but they have pulled 2 of their A ballers that i know of
So who knows. IF Mil gets their pen fixed they may be the best team in the central. It would be great to see that force the Cubs into another move
We have a pretty good lefty in our bullpen
who would be a great short term fix

the problem with him is that you can’t bean him.
well ok i suppose you COULD but it’s a surefire suspension throwing at the dugout

replace hitters with teams
Kinsler is the best player on the rangers(done), BENOIT SUCKS(done), bring up Harrison(done),new: Put Nippert in rotation, Mendoza to the pen, get Feliz to AAA by the end of the year, trade cat
That's what I was thinking

So if Nippert
finishes this game strong, does he replace Harrison in the rotation or do the Rangers stick with Harrison.

by oc on Jul 19, 2008 8:00 PM CDT up reply actions
im worried about Ramon and his falling average
and you have to give something to get something. Why trade hank for pennys on the dollar? You can always pick up his option and at worse trade him in the offseason for as much as you are going to get for him now.
Hank’s value can only go up,Ramon’s can only go down
Well outside of the Stache being awesomeness
I like his defense a lot better than Hank’s at third and think Blalock may actually see his value go lower in the last 2 months.

It was 3-2 in the 5th
Bases loaded, 2 outs. Harrison was 1-2 on Morneau, threw a good slider to him, and Morneau just went out and got it and doubled home 3 runs.
That’s the play of the game. If that doesn’t happen, if Morneau grounds that pitch to shortstop, it is probably still a ball game right now.

well that sucks
i just hope he doesnt get booted from the rotation already. not that we have anything to replace him with.

I think you're overrating the Dark Knight
I think the fact it kind of fell apart the last 30 minutes or so hurts it.
But I think losing a series like this, as much as it sucks, might be the best thing for us. Hopefully it will convince anyone whose not convinced which side of the buyer/seller market we should be on.
i can see things about it that would bother other people
but hey, thats why its my opinion =)
the preceding post is not nearly as negative or insulting as you think it is
The next to last scene(trying to keep this as vague as possible due to spoilers)
There were two MAJOR plot points that really, really bothered me. One felt like something out of a bad sci-fi movie, and the other just showed Batman to be kind of dumb when it comes to problem solving.
It was the kind of thing where halfway through the movie I was convinced it was the film of the year, but by the time it was over, I think I preferred Wall*E.
On an unrelated note...
I was sad to see David Duval shot an 83 today. I was hoping he’d stay in contention.
Yeah, but....
it was nice to see Norman do so well.

Has a 5.23 ERA, a 1.725 WHIP and is in the middle of a $60 million contract. I don’t think we could trade him if we tried.
