And I meant “no time like the present” is incorrect when we’ve specifically asked to NOT comment in the present but to save our off topic conversations for the nightly open thread.

Be patient.

This year’s Angels team is definitely not the most talented they’ve had in recent years.

They kind of remind me of a higher spending Twins. They have guys with underestimated talent who make significant contributions. Great depth. Capable pitching. Relies more on small ball than other teams (but not as much as advertised).

I know Morales is no Tex. But when Joe compared the infielders the other day, Morales is pretty damn good.

I thought last years angels were a much better team with Tex-Tori-Vlad in the middle of the lineup. This years team though not as potent seems much more proficient and I dont know how to quantify that. I watched their series with the sox alot of clutch hits and good ab’s. I am definitley expecting the Yanks to get by them this year.

However no time like the present

… except for a open thread, where the three creators of this site have repeatedly asked people to hold their off topic tangents to. Thanks for the good conversation, but let it wait.

True, but I think they’d use their best guys and the Yankees would continue to use their best guys regardless.

I would of went with, the rain delays don’t matter because the Yankees are an unstoppable force

John Lackey getting overpaid by the Mets (and then breaking down physically) sounds like a match made in heaven.

Fair enough sir-I did get some good feedback so at least I have an idea of some of the possibilities out there. However no time like the present and though I took extreme pleasure in watching the following
1-Papelbon blow up
2-Pedroia blame the infield
3-every Boston homer looking like a fool

I think this is a very good Angel team and the Yanks have to shatpen up. The same base running mistakes that helped the Yanks out against teh Twinkies will not be made BY Anaheim.

Right, if Andy retires, someone needs to fill in and I don’t think it should be someone on more than a one or two year deal.
