Welcome to Anaheim, Torii Hunter

Vladimir Guerrero and Torii Hunter , together at last. The Los Angeles Angels agreed to a five-year, $90 million deal Wednesday with the 32-year-old free agent, who hit .297 with 28 homers and drove in 107 runs in his contract year with the Minnesota Twins . The seven-time Gold Glover will be their everyday center fielder and hit in the middle of the lineup, making things a whole lot more complicated for the opposition to pitch around Guerrero. Between Vlad, Torii, Garret Anderson and last... Read Full Story

From:  anaheim.info
NEW YORK Angels infielder Maicer Izturis didn’t poke his head out onto the field for long Thursday before heading to a warm shower. “Just like Venezuela, you know?” Izturis joked.

Orioles' Walker fined for criticizing umpire

From:  ap.org
Baltimore Orioles pitcher Jamie Walker was fined by the commissioner's office Thursday for criticizing umpire Angel Hernandez. Hernandez called a balk on Walker during the seventh inning of Tuesday night's 7-5 loss to the Los Angeles Angels at Camden Yards when the left-hander appeared to pick off Maicer Izturis. Three batters later, Kendry Morales hit a two-run double for a 7-4 lead. "It's a (terrible) call," Walker said. "I don't know if the guy's got something against me or what, but no... Read Full Story

The Mike Napoli Show

There's Garret Anderson , Torii , Vlad , and... Mike Napoli ! The Los Angeles Angels catcher is leading the club with 10 homers after nailing two on Sunday to drive in a career-high five runs in the Halos’ 10-2 victory over the cross-town Dodgers . His 10 bombs equal the number between Anderson and Hunter and are six more than the slumping Guerrero. Why are his 23 RBIs so impressive? Napoli has only played in 27 of the team's 46 games, since he's sharing backstop duties with Jeff Mathis... Read Full Story

Izturis puts some thought into clutch performances

From:  anaheim.info
ANAHEIM Maicer Izturis’ clutch two-out, tie-breaking RBI single shouldn’t have come as any big surprise. A career .278 hitter (regular season), the diminutive Angels infielder gets big in the clutch — he is a .327 hitter with runners in scoring position. It’s not by accident, either. “I look at video and see how pitchers pitch when they have runners in scoring position,” [...] Read Full Story

Bad for Vlad: Angels DL Guerrero with pec tear

From:  ap.org
Vladimir Guerrero has a torn muscle in his chest and will miss at least a month. The Angels sent the slugger to Los Angeles on Friday to be examined by noted team orthopedist Dr. Lewis Yocum, who found Guerrero's pectoral tear. An MRI test the day before showed a strain. Manager Mike Scioscia said before the game at Minnesota that Guerrero would be re-evaluated again in a month, but expressed optimism for his recovery and said he can heal without surgery. Guerrero hadn't played in the field... Read Full Story
