The first-place Angels come into town with their 49-30 record and their two All-Star starters and their shutdown bullpen (how good is that Justin Speier signing? HOW GOOD IS DEREK JETER? I'm Joe Buck.) and their Vlad Guerrero and Casey Kotchman and Orlando Cabrera and Reggie Willits with his .430 OBP and no power. Thinking they're all great.
They're pretty damn good. I don't like Trachsel against this team, but I've stopped trusting Trachsel at all. He's a pitch-to-pitch time bomb.
