Why do baseball teams wear white at home instead of their more colorful road uniforms?
The Angels play small ball with the best of teams but another bat would definitely help. Remember that Juan Rivera will likely be back sometime after the all-star break and he was awesome last year. They may be relying on him to provide the extra pop that they need. I agree Mike Sweeney could help, but chances are he would be joining GA on the "used to be great, but now run down and often injured" list. It's possible Hillenbrand could heat up as well.Personally I think that bringing up Brandon Wood and letting him play 3B everyday could be the answer. This guy hit 40HR in the minors in one season. I see him producing on his second call up similar to what Kendrick did last last year.
Other options would be working a trade with a team like the Cubs who have extra bats like Jacque Jones or Matt Murton. Call me crazy but I also think bringing Miguel Tejada to the OC could be a possibility as well, and don't forget the Blue Jays may be headed for a fire sale, and they have alot to choose from.
All in all, the Angels should be fine for the time being. They should easily win the division with their pitching alone, but a nice power bat would go a along way in the playoffs.

We should pick up A-Rod next year, then we would be unstoppable. Just imagine Howie Kendrick, Gary Mathews Jr.,Vlad,A-rod, Chone Figgins that would be pretty unstoppable and i think i forgot 2 other good players on the AngelsMetal Bats Being Banned In Baseball?
I agree they need another bat to replace GAnderson then they will be a championship caliber teamMLB expert fans: who do you think will be the top 3 teams for each league?
The Angels need at least another bat to protect Vladdy and win first series. They'll need two or three to beat teams like the Red Sox Or Mets. Man Ram WAS available. This may sound laughable but listen. Tony Clark can't gets his at bats because of Arizona's ongoing love affair with Conor Jackson at 1st. I'm from AZ. I watch these games. Toe Can still hit. He'll be cheap. He's been clutch for us.Doctahh
How bout them Cubs? Lilly and Marquis both looked good and the youngster Hill won tonight.?
Yes a power bat at 3rd base.The need is not so great since Reggie Willits has been the needed leadoff guy, that the team has lacked for 2 decades.
The needed guy is Troy Glauss. Also Figgins needs to go away.

Mike Sweeney. He's in the last year of his contract with the Royals. With the injuries he's had the last couple of years they could probably get him fairly cheap. Or give him a contract with backend money and based on performance. KC will not resign him.Who were the last pitchers in the AL and NL to in the MVP award?
