    I think Arte and soshe finger each others taints and jack eacother balls off before and after the games. Why else would he give mook scioscia till 2018 with only one really good season. Scioscia isn't going nowhere. Last year mickey hatcher was the whipping boy cuz the hitting was shit. This year its gonna be butcher cuz the pitching is garbage. They need to oust that creepy lookin Fugger Dino Ebel, I don't like the cut of his jib. Its probably the reason for the Angels lackluster performance, they don't want to have to pass by 3rd and have to look at Dino.

    In a 162 game season, how many players have stretches where they struggle for a dozen games?

    It ain't gettin' any better.

    Scioscia must have a deal with the devil or something. He should've been fired last year.

    I dont blame Sciosca for all of the terrible pitching. I dont know how much power any manger has on helping any pticher improving their performances. The roster decisions have been the downfall of their team. From what I have read, Sciosca has a lot of sway on who is added, and subtracted from the roster. The last 3 years of poor roster decisions are a fireable offense.

    It takes about 10 seconds of watching an LAA game to realize this team just isn't right.

    Its still fairly early. Last year Angles started off 6-14, and finished the regualr season with a better record than Detriot.

    No depth at starting pitching and a terrible bullpen. Not a good recipe. This isn't the type of team mike is good at coaching. They aren't buying into his philosophy. I still blame him for at least half of this

    They added one new hitter. Pitchers don't need to gel together. This team has no excuse for a slow start.

    Yeah, the new guys still don't know the snap counts, lingo, and how the blockers around them function.

    Oh wait, this is baseball and you can add or subtract players pretty much at will...

    they shipped out haren and santana

    lost grienke in free agency

    their pitching sucks.

    Should have paid greinke instead of hamilton.

    should have kept santana.

    Nobody said he was a better player, it was the fact he had a better season when you incorporate Trout's defensive capabilites.

    trout was a better "overall" player last year than Cabrera. No doubt about it.

    The main reason Cabrera received MVP was because they made playoffs and angels didn't.

    Having said that, trout is having a sophomore slump.

    its called chemistry bro. They got too many latinos on the team that they cant communicate with. They need to get rid of Izturis and collaspo and their new catcher sucks balls

    Yep just about every player, they have shipped out in the psat two years has gone on to have productive seasons. Currently Torri Hunter, Jordan Walden, Santana, and Wells have improved since leaving Anaheim. Their roster moves have been horrific.

    not really; he had a bad 1st week, since then he his hitting 290/358/534 with 6HR & 6SB. thats a pace for about 27HR/27SB over a full year. While the Steal (and attempts) are down the rest of the line looks like what most resonable thought he would do.
