Love the audio links ...

There were about a dozen on LA Angels Insider… thanks for the link.

Makes me wonder if naps can hang defensively at 1st

Does kendry swing out to left and make juan trade-bait? Especially if mathis can keep hitting when he gets back.

Matsui is signed for only one year

Napoli is a prime candidate for DH next year, meaning we’d still need a cheap LFer who can hit home runs and throw.

I'd assumed bobby was destined for dh next year.

He’s pretty weak defensively and morales came pretty close to being our rightfielder last year. He is a good fit at first, but I’d bet he could handle the OF and if it gives nap a shot at everyday playing time- without losing the defense of mathis… Well it’d be nice to have another 25-35 home run bat in the lineup.

Either way, even if Bobby goes the way of the DH and Kendry goes RF, with Matsui gone you still need Rivera in LF.

Unless you’re CERTAIN you can get Crawford.

If nobody knows about The Best Kept Secret In Baseball

how can you trade The Best Kept Secret In Baseball?

The first rule of The Best Kept Secret In Baseball

is that you don’t talk about The Best Kept Secret In Baseball

Shit what is up with all the injuries.

Hudson it looks like just got hurt bad when going for the final out. Span made the catch but they both did a big flip and Hudson isn’t doing so well. Just got up though.

Gingerly walking of the field
Looked like he hit Span in the nuts. Ouch!
As bad as we've played this year, and as many bad breaks as we've had, to only be 2.5 out on Memorial Day isn't too shabby!
Well, we're only a couple days removed from our worst bad break, so we'll see where we are in a few weeks.
