Arreaz is having a slow start for him - imagine batting .300 and being disrespected? he'll end up batting .325-335. I have no idea who these clowns are that got traded for him but Arraez has won 2 batting titles and will prob end up with 4-5.

not a good fielder comparing him to other 2nd basemen. As far hitting...best singles hitter in the last 20-25 yrs to come up.

Like Texas minus 1.5 runs tonight. Usually AL teams at a disadvantage going into Coors. Not sure if thats the case here. Jon Gray makes his return to Denver, and he has several decent seasons there, so he won't be intimidated. And Corey Seager? He used to make 3 trips a year to Denver. He's licking his chops waiting to get into the batters box.

The Angels have gone 6-16 since hitting the .500 mark. That current lineup might be the worst in baseball. Thank goodness Pillar turned out to be a decent pickup.

My concern is the division is pretty weak. I wouldn’t have bet this if I thought the top three teams took a step back for various reasons.

I thought Texass/Asstros/Mariners would take the T2 spots and Angels would fade in mid-season........like they always do

Trot missing a significant part of the season helps my cause

He lived up to it today. 9 baserunners in 4 innings last week, no hit 1 walk in 6 innings so far.
