I have a feeling he’s going to own that park just like Vlad once did………… By the way, those bastards over at Lone star ball have a fan post on their home page talking smack about us.. Needless to say I am now banned from that site….
This thread is supposed to be about Pujols, and you are going off topic by talking smack about how Lone Star fans go off topic in their threads. I’m not coming to their defense, just thought it was funny.
Red, I was trying to have a nice conversation as I had for a week until someone looked
At my profile pick and just lost it. So apparently legitimate opinions and conversations do not matter in the LSB rodeo arena. Now I can not wait to sweep them at which time I will re appear on their site to remind them that they have a better pitching and hitting line up than the Angels.
I still can not believe they banned me, I am a nice guy!
However, I was referring to his Plate Appearance/Big Red Bat percentage, which is very low. You know who had the best PA/BRG% on the Halos last year? Abreu.
And the other one was Scratched Balls Ratio/Plate Appearance percentage, which was also very low.
What would be the chances of bringing him over to Anaheim too? Now that LaRussa and Pujols are gone…
But I know that’s kind of Sosh’s decision, and however insane it may be, there is no way he dumps Hatcher. Plus, is there any bad blood between Sosh and Mac because of the ’88 WS? Double Plus, would our FO willingly associate with an admitted steroid user? The Angels org seems pretty tough on the issue (i.e. refusing to sign Bonds/Manny and benching GMHGHJr.).
There was a great article about that exact thing on roto the other day.
Here is the link
Basically, Albert is the best fastball hitter, like, ever. Unfortunately for pitchers, he also destroys sliders, changeups, curves, etc… He has never hit against a knuckleballer, but it probably wouldnt change much. He also has amazing plate discipline so dont try and pitch around him or he will just take the walk.
I'm not going to watch any spring training games!
I want to save his first AB as an Angels, for game 1 of the 2012 season!

I hope he wrecks the Ballpark in Arlington
This video would be so much cooler if he were wearing an Angel uni

I'm a little upset about my banning.
It was so anticlimactic.

Over half of their threads crash on my work comp
Are there really that many gifs worth showing down in Tejas?

Probably because I only posted to offer sympathy when the guy fell off the upper deck.

Yeah, well, what do you expect from LSB?
BTW, that yahoo spam is still coming out sporadically.

Thin skinned lot.

I hate that one of the commenters on LSB is named Black Francis.
That name is way too cool for a Rangers fan.

Circling the Bases and MLB Facts and Rumors have Abreu
asking for a trade
Unclearnie - December 19, 2011
"would welcome" and "wouldn't shy away from" are far from "asking"
Just googled “Abreu trade” and those article headlines came up.
MLB Trade Rumors has the “would welcome” title on theirs
Downing Rules - December 19, 2011
It looked like his bat speed was a little slow there...
I think he is on the downside of his career….
angelskid2210 - December 19, 2011
Also, did you notice his PA/BRG%?! It's like so low!
Not to mention his SBR/PA%!
5thStarter - December 19, 2011
Actually his Plate Appearance/Bright Red Gear % is near 1.000
And his Sites on Baseball Reference/Plate Appearance % is the best of any qualified player since they started the website.

Excellent points.

5thStarter - December 19, 2011
Darn, I'm a bit high.
Plate Appearance/Big Red Gum percentage. Still Abreu, though.
5thStarter - December 19, 2011
That first one was absolutely murdered...
…it should have had a health and safety warning attached
The Limey - December 19, 2011
Seeing MacGwire in that video made me think
What would be the chances of bringing him over to Anaheim too? Now that LaRussa and Pujols are gone…

Arte is pretty Anti-PED

Rev Halofan - December 19, 2011
It's true
Arte could have stomached the Wells/Napoli trade, but then Tony had to go and test positive for Del Scorcho…. Goodbye!
MH252525 - December 19, 2011
Gee....you think Ogando throws Pujols a fastball at all next season?
I can’t wait to see the first at bat Pujols has against him, if nothing else just to watch Ogando’s knees shake.
