July 21, 200818 yr 2.33 ERA 1.28 WHIP 27 BB / 42 K's (in 43 innings) (entering the day) It's incredible how a far from dominant closer will be asking for 15 mill per year this offseason, but he'll be asking for exactly that.

July 21, 200818 yr K rods a beast. I love when the sox get swept on espn. The angles are such a good team. Their SP is awsome and they got scott sheilds who sets up k rod.
July 21, 200818 yr Author In my eyes the Angels are and should be the favorites to win the world series because of their impressive road record the only team in the AL with a winning road record, and they are good, real good.
July 21, 200818 yr Author Indeed just had an interesting fact on ESPN first team to win 60 games generally reaches the World Series.
July 21, 200818 yr some how they fly under the radar every year and nobody talks enough about the angles and they do nothing but win. :whistle :thumbup :shifty :whistle
July 21, 200818 yr some how they fly under the radar every year and nobody talks enough about the angles and they do nothing but win. :whistle :thumbup :shifty :whistle It's b/c they play in the West Coast, and ESPN is too interested in teams like the Red Sox. The Angels aren't flashy. They don't have Big Papi hitting HR's, or Manny with his crazy antics; they just pitch, have a timely offense, and a bullpen that can hold the leads. They play "small ball."

Yeah, but man did you see Vlad Guerrero's homer yesterday? What a shot! It looked like a batting practice home run!

I guess he bends but doesn't break. I don't think he's worth $15 M but to his credit he's 10 for 10 (*) in one-run saves and those are the tough ones. (*) eyeballed game log so I may be off a bit.

He's not dominant, and hasn't been for the past couple years now. Give me a guy like Soria...Save the real money for position players, and pitchers going more than 1 inning (starters).

Soria, a perfect example of closers rising and falling, let's see where he is at this time next year. oh and KRod just saved another one (41)
