The Series Rewind: Jays falter, get swept by Angels
Posted on 19 Apr 2010 by Ben Fisher.
The Breakdown: It was a reversal of fortunes for two teams over the weekend, as the Blue Jays (7-6) dropped three straight to the Angels, who shook off some early season struggles. My Thoughts: What to do with Lyle Overbay? Hitting .080 thus far (4 hits in 50 at-bats), he is virtually untradeable and is taking up a starting spot that could be used to offer Adam Lind a chance to play defensivel...

The Angels have overcome a lot of adversity this season and it is amazing that the club leads the AL West, once again, by three games. But that being said the Angels need pitching help.

Posted on 7 Apr 2009 by Nich Hall.
On Opening Day Mike Scioscia and the Angels gave off a distinct impression that 2009 may turn out to be just more of the same for the Halos. With concerns about the rotation and even Saunders arm, Joe went out and threw a gem. He went 6.2 innings surrendering just three hits, with two strikeouts. Always humble Saunders turned the credit over to his teammates, “made pitches when I needed t...

Angels once again will try to climb to the top
Posted on 6 Apr 2009 by Nich Hall.
For Angels fans it must seem like just yesterday they were the best team in baseball, with 100 wins they went into the 2008 American League playoffs with lofty expectations. With Mark Teixeira as a hired gun and arguably the best 1-2-3 pitching rotation in the league the Angels seemed poised to return to the World Series.
