Boy, the Astros are gonna be pissed to find out one of their fans is claiming the Angels as his own.

And not without a pitching staff the Angels won't be winning the AL West.

1. You have no team. Unless you're part of an ownership group.
1a. How and why?
2. No
3. No
4. That vaunted pitching rotation will then become one-deep. Woo.

After I post this I am going to just ignore your stupid comments

1. I am an Astros and Angels fan.
2. You are a hater
3. Worry about yourself
4. The only person that is struggling in the rotation is Jon Garland.

You have no baseball knowledge if you think our rotation is gonna be one deep when Lackey comes back.

Damn AJ, can't believe you're an Angels fan, but at least you're a Rockets fan lol.


I do agree once Lackey gets back, their rotation is very, very solid. I also want to see how Lackey pitches once he gets back though. The Angels also have the best offense in the division, no doubt about that.


But you do know who has the best pitching in the division and is going to take the AL West title :)

Bedard, Felix, Silva
:D
John Wall>>>>>>>>>Ricky Rubio

ya i do admit you guys have the best rotation in the AL West, but your lineup is gonna have to improve to take a leap towards winning the AL West.

The division is ours to lose.

And yes, our lineup sucks and is very inconsistent but we have been scoring a lot of runs past 2 games on you guys.

:D


Bedard vs Saunders tomorrow.

Pitcher's duel with the way Saunders is pitching so far.

Should be a great matchup. Too bad I can never watch Angel games except on ESPN, TBS, FSN, or FOX. :(

Teams like OAK and FLA are starting off great... these young teams tend to tail off at the end, as a chunk of their roster hasn't played ball for over half of a calendar year straight. But it sure is good to see them play so well now... A's aren't hitting the ball well, but they're not making mistakes defensively and the pitching has been great...
