Angels Depth a Problem ?

Whenever I read an article about Mike Trout, Vernon Wells, Bobby Abreu, Mark Trumbo or Kendrys Morales I?m bound to come across the same statement ?Having too much depth is a good problem to have.?

I just got through telling you about how I think Chris Young should be a top-100 player but George, my co-contributor, doesn’t value him as highly. The inverse is true for Howie Kendrick.
