There is this thing on the free part of ESPN.com that puts the Angels in the top Third of the league in toughness of teams we have faced.
Good News: Oaky Choaky has had it real nice and easy, so they would be expected to regress a bit when the face actual Major League teams.
Bad News: Texas is a few games better than us with a similarly rated opponent strength.
Food for Thought: According to this measurement, the Blue Jays are For Real.
It is rare that I read anything on ESPN.com and feel this good. Not confident per se, just good - at least better than I did earlier today.

Had mentioned that he spoke with Stoneman and the organization believes in their system and will look to use the 2005 Braves as a model for the 2006 season. Stoneman is usually tight with the info but I get the feeling that this statement is the plan that the Angels intend to follow.riktermiller - May 9, 2006
