my GA bobble head with him holding the 2002 WS trophy fell and broke right at his hands. maybe it’s a sign that we’re seperating from that trophy and getting a new one?
He told Ireland he was concerned that if we resign Tex, then we won’t be able to maintain the core of the team.
After reflection, and reading the Rev’s analysis, I think Phillips is wrong. I don’t think we’ll re-sign GA, much as I like him, unless he has an inhuman (and I mean more than Ruthian) second half. Frankie is an iffy signing, and as Rev pointed out, we’ve got Morales in reserve.
Phillips doesn’t like Morales at this point, which is part of why he thinks it was a bad trade. IMO, Morales is only in AAA because the organization wants him to get everday ABs, rather than sitting on the bench behind Kotch (now Tex).
Phillips is clearly paid to be a contrarian. It is now more obvious than ever that he makes his money by promoting that which cannot be known. It does not matter which way the wind actually blows, he can always make the claim that the winds would blow faster if they blew some other direction.
All In One Night!
in the course of, like, 4 hours!

6) We need more power from our corners
Caseys Kiss of Death - July 30, 2008
AGREE that should be added.
acuda27 - July 30, 2008
I had a couple of others, but the fanshot list format was only 5 items long.
I could add:
“Angels’ stand pat”
“Angels’ stand pat again”
“Pussy hits”

7) Before today Stirrups did'nt know how to post a fanshot.

SCHalo - July 30, 2008
i actaully heard about the earth quake here first
Halos Heaven….the number 1 news outlet!!!
kingfish - July 30, 2008
same here
halofan4life - July 30, 2008
worst part of the quake?

SCHalo - July 30, 2008
And how about...
“Fire Mickey Hatcher”
Could we let that one go already.
Wytelitning - July 30, 2008
nope
Carl Johnson - July 30, 2008
Great post!
I was saying all night last night “now they can finally SHUT THE F UP” about a big bat! What are they going to harp on the Angels for now?!!
lightupthehalo - July 30, 2008
"yeah but Teixeira can't pitch"
this was always the comeback line when people talked about him being in that Texas lineup. that could be a big hook in getting him to be here a while.
SCHalo - July 30, 2008
steve phillips thinks this was a bad idea...
don’t have a direct quote, but pretty sure he was saying we needed a big bat to be taken seriously two weeks ago.

I was listening to ESPN Radio.

I think the trade actually CAUSED the earthquake
There was a quantum shift in the bedrock of the Angels world. The instant Reagins signed his name…boom,shaka,shaka. We are all certainly rattled.
Rally Manatee - July 30, 2008
maybe vice versa
it wobbled Reagins to the non-Stoneman side of the fence…
Rev Halofan - July 30, 2008
lmao
howiestheman - July 30, 2008
Soon, we can retire "The Angels never beat the Sox in the playoffs"
oohhhh yeah.
HaloDutch - July 30, 2008
we can already retire
“The Red Sox OWN the Angels”.
