Scioscia and GM battling over analytics.
This could get interesting.


Scioscia is an idiot and has always been one. IMO He's "Gardy West".

He's Art Howe.
DiPoto is Brad Pitt.
Owners going to have to choose soon.

Hopefully he chooses Art Howe. Being that it's the Biebers and all...

Angels are dumb.

Wow.

Maybe it goes further than this battle. Maybe it goes to some contracts that aren't working out, the Hamilton situation and more.

We have stopped him from being one of baseballs biggest stories.

That's equal parts hilarious, ridiculous, and sad.

He hasnt played for them FOR 15 YEARS

It's one of the strangest and most unbelievable facts of my lifetime.

That was some sweet negotiating by Bonilla's agent(s).

Or as that Jim Rich guy over at Fox9 called him, at least ten times ... CARRACKSO
Even tho his name showed up in the highlights oh, probably twenty times in the minute clip ....

A perfect example of why I watch nothing but live sports on television.

I feel somewhat clean.

When my opinions prove to be wrong, it's all on me.

Having said that, I like Rosario, he's going to be really good. Vargas was Balboni in a former life. Hunter is a sabermetric nightmare, and i would love to have him on my basketball team, or any team. Dozier was my hope as Jeter's replacement. He's slick, solid and hits it hard.
Perkins is absolutely fantastic. Don't care one bit about things he may have said. I have no clue what's wrong with Joe.

Interesting to see our cast-offs raking it pretty well around the league.
Watched Parm the other night, he was driving the hell out of the ball almost every at-bat.
Cowbell continues to impress, as does Val.

Cowbell would have helped at DH this year, no doubt.

Parm apparently need a new beginning, Val may have finally "got it".

The Indians took perfectos into the 6th inning in three consecutive games vs. the Rays.
