Shrowded in as much secrecy as a Cold War nuclear test or New England Patriots injury, the California Angels have yielded very few signals as to the makeup of their postseason roster. While the starting lineup is generally set, the rest of the team is in a state of...

In his first game back since June 19, Daisuke Matsuzaka pitched a surprisingly decent an unagitating outing, as the Red Sox beat the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim of California of the United States of North America, 4-1. The multi-million dollar man notched over six...

GAME NOTES: The Angels come to town. We’ll probably be facing them in the ALDS again — the Angels could use a strong showing at Fenway Park to give them confidence going into the playoff series. The Angels aren’t the pitching club they used to be,...

Ok, the season has started. So here is my quick write-up on the AL West, along with very quick predictions for the remaining divisions. LA Angels of Anaheim: 86-76: The one thing that I am not sold on is that a team like the Angels are solely summed up in their run...

Jed Lowrie got another chance to punch Boston’s ticket to the ALCS, and this time around, Lowrie delivered. Tied 2-2 in the bottom of the ninth, Lowrie lined a single to right field and Jason Bay slid into home safely to score the game winning run. Bay had...

This is not 1986. This is not 2004. This is not 2007. The 2008 Halos are 100-62 and, on paper, the most complete team in baseball. Orange County limped into last year

A six run outburst in the sixth inning was the all the Angels needed dumping Daisuke Matsuzaka and the Boston Red Sox 7-5 at Fenway Park. Casey Kotchman’s two-run homer and Torii Hunter’s three-run homer washed away any chance the Red Sox had of winning...
