The Angels ended up winning 89? Wow. That another team that I don't really understand. So many holes and yet... 89 wins. And they always give the Yanks fits.

Well the Angels were 4th in the majors in ERA (after the Tigers, Padres, and Twins... in that order). That compensated for their 18th in OPS. Interestingly enough, they were better than the Oakland A's in ERA and OPS (though the A's scored more runs).
Jared Weaver, Lackey, Escobar, and that solid bullpen is the main reason they did so well. And of could Vlad was great, even in a bit of a down year. LAA also has some young hitting talent that isn't known very well. Juan Rivera (former Yank) was very good. Quinlan was servicable. Napoli did a decent job even though his batting average was crap (his OBP was good though).“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

The Marlins... so good at certain things, so godawfully bad at others. Think Girardi will go to the Cubs (godawfully bad at everything)?

And it begins with the A's and the Twins. Frank Thomas with a solo HR in the 2nd off Santana for the early 1-0 lead.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another.

It's now 2-0 after a Scutaro double. I've been thinking the As might win this series. They're certainly due, dontcha think?

Great pickup... smart contract. Small guaranteed money plus lotsa incentives.

Ballgame. Heh, so much for predictions, right?
Did you hear, Imran? Your game 1 starter hurt his calf. No, not Pedro. El Duque.
Yikes!
