Castellanos needs to be on the team. This is why the Mark Ellis deal is bad. Use the money he got and fill another piece instead.
Van Slyke is not a good hitter, he's strong as hell but all his Abs are crush the ball or do nothing productive
Castellanos played some 3B in the minors... http://www.baseball-reference.com/minors/player.cgi?id=castel001ale
That was a sick game to go to! The boys are kicking ass. Fun story by the way for guys that arn't friends with me on Facebook: So a couple of buddies and I were at the game today and we overhear these two guys talking in the behind us. Here's how their convo went: Guy #1: "Has Pujols always played for the Angels?" Guy #2: "I THINK he used to play for the Cardinals." My buddy (The smartass that he is): "No, he played for the Brewers." Both guys at the same time: "Oh yeah that's right!" I was laughing my ass off. Hahaha.
I can't tell you how heartwarming it was to see that game and beat those bags of steaming shit like that. I go back a long way with this team, and I want them to win against everyone of course. But from childhood fist fights with Giant fans (and Yankee, too), I think there is no sweeter victory than over these blood sucking Angels. Even though it's only ST. I don't care. Ethier, Kemp and Rivera look positively dangerous right now.
Ned can suck my fucking left nut. Harrang and Capuano for 2 years? Fuck this faggot. I hope he gets AIDS.
i know just idiotic. we're deep in pitching, and he does anything he can to block our young guys i would have been cool with either(preferably Capuano) on a 1 year deal. maybe both. good stop gaps til next year. but no, 2 year deals with higher 2nd years because of the damn deferred contracts
umm... I don't get the venom of your statement... I've liked the Dodgers for decades, since watching and listening to Sandy Koufax, and I'm always lamenting why they've been penny wise and pound foolish for so many years. I knew that the O'Malley's weren't the Steinbrenners but I still want the Dodgers to have a great team and to win. I've always hated on the damn Giants and have always considered them to be our true rivals. "F" San Francisco and everything in a 50 mile radius... The Angels, or for that matter to a lesser degree the San Diego Padres, always were viewed as the poor cousins who used broken bats, scuffed yellow balls and our leftover players to cobble together a .500 season once or twice a decade. I don't spite either team. They are the poor unwashed relations with awkward table manners who cannot help their position in life. When the Angels won a ring a few years back I actually smiled. They didn't take anything away from the Dodgers. They're in an entirely different league. Hey and they beat the damn Yankees! Slap them on the back already! Give up a little love!! If the Dodgers played the Angels in the postseason then I would understand your views... In the meantime the Angel's being successful doesn't hurt the Dodgers. Spanky McCrook hurts the Dodgers. Are you jealous that Arte Moreno spent some of his advertising $$ to purchase Pujols? Who cares? McCrook sure wasn't going to try and sign him. What did the Angels do to earn the wrath of "blood sucking Angels"??
You a local? I will never admit to hating the Angels to Angel fans. Don't want to give them the pleasure. But I sure as hell hate that organization with all my heart. It is a cheesy, douchey, suburbia organization that I despise. They think just because they are FINALLY being a successful team on the field that they are superior. Ignoring 40 years of sucking balls and trying to claim superiority over the Dodgers. Drivin up the 5 lately? How about the 605? 710? 60? Angel billboards decorate our territory. They are pathetic wannabes and are not welcome. Fuck those red homos. And that is just the tip of the iceberg.
The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Fuck that. *Damn, Irish - I typed it and posted it only to see you had it already up. I guess that's the entirely obvious response.
Yeah that one was complete bullshit I'll have to agree... One of the bigger mistakes Arte has made. Worse than calling them the California Angels too. Anaheim Angels was the correct name, he shouldn't have touched it. Yeah I've driven the LA freeways... lots of them... can't recall seeing a Dodger billboard recently. So the Angels are the problem because they are now advertising? ...Or you're just pissed off that McCrook couldn't be bothered to advertise?
wow... I had no idea... They never did anything worthy to be thought of as competiton in my eyes. The Giants personally kept us out of the playoffs way too many times. The Angels? Never... Have you considered untwisting the knots in your skivvies?
I don't give a damn about whether or not the Dodgers advertise. The Angels are pathetic. Should the Dodgers go put billboards in Anaheim? Santa Ana? Garden Grove? Tustin? Orange? The Angels are too much for me to swallow. The LOS ANGELES Angels OF ANAHEIM.
