GM Tony Reagins says his Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim could still make a move or two this offseason, noting the team's lingering need for a fifth starting pitcher and a utility man off the bench.
Like most of what he and his predecessor Bill Stoneman say, this sounds like another half truth.
The Angels do indeed need have a few holes ... 21Jan2010 |

With the season on the line, the Angels needed to find a way to get back into this series. Thanks to the bats of Vladimir Guerrero, Howie Kendrick, and Jeff Mathis, the Angels pulled the series back to 2-1 and look to get even tomorrow night.

Just an atrocious way to end a game that the Yankees tried to give away. I don't even know what to say after this one. Time and time again the Angels had chances to take control, and time and time again they refused to cash in. For some reason, the Angels have ... 18Oct2009 |

The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim were cold.
No, it's not a cheesy weather pun (see: headline). The Angels have simply been sidelined for too long, slogging through a five-day break between the first and second rounds of the playoffs.
They were just a little sluggish, that's all. Or at least, that's all I'd ... 17Oct2009 |

After two games, the Angels have erased the letters H and E from the word HEX. Two starts, two great pitching performances, and two days with just enough offense to get the Angels over the hump. They'll board a plane tomorrow and fly back to Boston with a 2-0 series lead in ... 10Oct2009 |

Just when you think the Angels are ready to finally put Texas away, both teams show that the race isn't over. The Rangers swept two games from the Blue Jays yesterday. Coupled with the Angels loss to the Mariners, the AL West lead now stands at only ... 2Sep2009 |

After Friday's 16 run debacle, the Angels handed the ball over their big horse, John Lackey. Lackey responded with seven innings of one run ball, and was the beneficiary of a five run third inning as the Angels beat the Orioles 6-1.

The Angels offense waited a little too long to give Trevor Bell a win in his major league debut, but the rookie gave the Angels a chance to win, and the Angels closed out the series with a sweep of the Tampa Bay Rays in an afternoon tilt at the Big A. ... 12Aug2009 |

Vladimir Guerrero is trying to slug his way into the hall of fame AND into a big contract for next season. He hit two home runs, including the eventual game winner in the seventh inning, the 400th of his career. Kendry Morales hit his 24th and 25th homers of the year, the ... 11Aug2009 |

Over the past few seasons, the achilles heal for the Angels has been a lackluster offense that has failed to not only get runners on base, but to also drive them in.
However, this year appears to be quite the exception for Mike Scioscia's bunch, as they currently have one of baseball's most ... 7Aug2009 |

It took a couple of days, but the Angels finally found the offense they left in Minnesota. Combined with an adequate performance from Ervin Santana, the Angels salvaged the last of their three game set at the Cell with a 9-4 victory.

At 1:00 PST, the major league baseball trade deadline passed without a stir coming from Anaheim, California; as the Angels were unwilling to part with several of their top of the line prospects and younger players, and as a result, GM Tony Reagins was unable to pull of any sort of deadline ... 31Jul2009 |

With the odds of Roy Halladay landing in Anaheim about as likely as Brett Favre making a timely decision, it appears as if the Angels have set their sights on Cliff Lee, the Cleveland Indians' ace and 2008 American League CY Young Award winner, as the MLB trade deadline approaches.

Trailing 4-0 early in the ball game after an erratic Joe Saunders allowed five runs in five innings, the Angels knew they would need some of the bats to come alive if they were going to spoil Mark Teixeira's return to Anaheim.

After all the Angels have been through this year, it's hard to believe that they're in first place, but after handing the Rockies on their second loss in the last 19 games, the Angels have caught the Rangers atop the AL West.

Despite a shaky start to the 2009 season, Monday night's starter John Lackey looked like a legitimate ace, as the Angels defeated the San Francisco 9-7, their fourth straight victory.

If you were to sum up the Angels' season in one game, than Sunday afternoon's contest against the Detroit Tigers would certainly suffice. Holding a 5-4 leading heading into the bottom of the eight inning, the Angels' bullpen blew the team's one-run lead, resulting in a 9-6 defeat ... 7Jun2009 |
