Dude is a good ballplayer but has jumped from team to team his whole career because he is an a-hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Great. My seats are directly in front of Harry the K's. We kept our seats because there were so few openings that we didn't think the other options were better, despite having our backs to the board, but now I kinda wish we switched. Unfortunately, there's not a single season-ticket left for sale... and likely won't be for a few years.

nash61 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 The Blue Jays have traded Vernon Wells to the Angels for Mike Napoli On September 20, 2012 at 0:50 AM, 'CS85 said: It's like watching the hellish undead creakily shuffling their way out of the flames of a liposuction clinic dumpster fire.

LMU Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 The Blue Jays have traded Vernon Wells to the Angels for Mike NapoliYou mean that Reagins actually did something? This is a fantastic move. Brings in a much needed bat, and with Napoli gone, HOPEFULLY Scioscia will wake up and give Mathis enough at bats to get into some kind of rhythm, or if Mathis can't cut it, it'll give Conger a chance to establish himself. Now, ideally, they'll try to trade Rivera for a closer or a bottom-of-the-rotation starter as a contingency for Kazmir flaming out again, putting Wells in left, keeping Bourjos in center, and then getting Damon or Podsednik to DH.

LMU Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Meh. Moreno's been so stingy the last couple years that he has the cash. Plus the contract's down to four years and I'm sure the Jays are going to be paying a good chunk of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, ideally, they'll try to trade Rivera for a closer or a bottom-of-the-rotation starter as a contingency for Kazmir flaming out again, putting Wells in left, keeping Bourjos in center, and then getting Damon or Podsednik to DH.If you read the article, they traded Napoli AND Rivera for Wells.I liked both Juan and Nap, but they were just way too inconsistent. Extremely streaky, both at the plate and in the field.Wells is that bat they need for sure, and getting rid of Juan opens up that left spot, so the lineup will be the same. But we also lose another tradable asset in Juan, but oh well I guess.I'd be fine with keeping Kazmir into the season, but they really need to get Damon or Podsednik for leadoff. However, just listening to what Scioscia and Reagins have said all along, I doubt they do anything else before Spring Training. They're comfortable with Izturis/Aybar or even Abreu or Kendrick leading off. And getting Damon or Podsednik creates that outfield logjam the Halos have always had. So, I'd say Reagins is done for now, unfortunately. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMU Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Yeah, Rivera was added after the news just broke. In that case, even better! Just need that leadoff guy now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 In an essentially meaningless move to all fans outside of Minnesota (this includes St. Louis fans), Nick Punto has signed with the Cardinals. The era is over. Thankfully.

Still MIGHTY Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Yeah, Rivera was added after the news just broke. In that case, even better! Just need that leadoff guy now.Problem now is though, with Damon and Podsednik being the two legitmate options in free agency, where would they go? You've got Wells LF, Bourjos CF, Hunter RF, Abreu DH, and then what? If you get Damon or Podsednik, who of those guys do you take out? And any dreams of Vlad returning are gone because of that same problem.I like the move, it just handcuffs us with our leadoff options.Like I said before, I think this kinda cements Aybar/Izturis as the leadoff right now. Unless Reagins swings another trade, I don't see where they go from here. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMU Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 If I had my way, I'd move Abreu to 3rd and had Aybar full-time at SS. I've never been a fan of Izturis, especially with how brittle he is, but even though he's a complete space cadet, Aybar at least has some promise at times.

The Six Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Moreno had to open his yap and promise that he'll do whatever it takes to get back to the playoffs. Then when free agent after free agent sign elsewhere, he has the audacity to get all indignant at the fans and press for skewering him. He gets credit for making the Angels relevant, but hasn't really done anything. He bought a team that had just won the World Series, so it was built-in that attendance would rise. He spent millions to give the team the stupidest name in the history of sports, arguing that it would give his team more visibility and bring in more revenue. But for all the trouble he went through to attach the "LA" to the team, it cannot be found anywhere on the uniforms, or in the stadium. And it's been years since the name change, so you'd think they'd have some money to sign someone without "crippling" the franchise.But hey, he lowered the cost of beer, I guess he's a great owner!
