The Rangers manager Ron Washington tested positive for Cocaine. Not sure a coke head can out manage our Lasagna head.

Poor Rangers fan. This one won't die soon.

Some links detailing the history of Irish-born players in baseball. Baseball was always a magnet for immigrants just like it is today. At one point, roughly 30% of the players in MLB claimed Irish ancestry, with such well known examples over the years as Sean Casey and Mark McGwire, among many others. The Irish are also the 2nd largest European diaspora group in the US after the Germans.

how do you upload pictures from your computer to a Fanshot?
I have some spring training photos and want to upload them. Didn't want to put it as a Fanpost because this is where it belongs, it only says 'image url'

Earthquake Thread

I was drinking a glass of water after watching the Angels VS Dodgers on my DVR when it hit. I almost choaked on the water because I tried speaking while drinking (stupid Idea dont try it lol). It was a 4.4 with the center in Pico Rivera. Feel free to share your stories here.

If you go to the bottom of this article about Jepsen and Rodney, you'll see that 17 players were reassigned to minor league camp.

With the roster down to 49 players, are we going to start seeing some improvement in our ST record?

You may know that Peter Graves died yesterday at 83. As many game and other threads have at one point or another devolved into Airplane! quotation fests, I thought we'd honor Graves (aka Captain Oveur) with this compilation...enjoy!

TEMPE, Ariz. -- One of the most impressive facets of any team this spring is the depth of the Angels' rotation. For the position of No. 5 starter, which for the vast majority of teams is manned by a journeyman, an unproven kid or worse, the Angels will choose between Scott Kazmir, a former ace with the Rays, and Joel Pineiro, maybe the second best free-agent starter signed this winter . . . .

He was suppose to take over for Glaus but that did not happen.
His career is over if you get sent to the A's Minor leagues.
Sorry Dallas, just hope that Woods is not the next you.

Hank's relatively high at #40, with Walden (71), Trout (81), and Reckling (89) coming in behind.

Nice to see Hank ranked among the game's better catching prospects. He deserves it.
