TEAMS: Los Angeles Angels
The October 9th, 2012 edition of daily news for the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim including Reviewing Iannetta's new contract, Maronde and Cowart rising up prospect rankings, Angels attendance expected to continue declining and much more... The Story: A look at the logic behind Chris Iannetta's new contract. The Monkey Says: This is one of the first real in-depth, impartial reviews of the deal I have seen. I can't say that I agree with all of it, though that just might be my bias. It definitely isn't as high on Iannetta as I am, but I do think a lot of the value of the deal is merely the Halos finally having some stability at the position. The Story: Nick Maronde and Kaleb Cowart are both in the preliminary top prospect lists from John Sickels. The Monkey Says: Neither is terribly high in their respective top 50, but at least they are listed. No other Angels are, which is discouraging but not surprising. I can't help but wonder though if Maronde wo...

What will Jerry do with the Angels lineup?

Via Monkey with a Halo  |  October 09, 2012
The Angels' off-season is here. This much we know and this much we bemoan. What we do not know is what exactly the Halos have planned for the off-season (and whether or not we will bemoan said plans). My goal for this week is to try and figure out what it is that Angels GM Jerry Dipoto has up his sleeves. The problem is that we really only have one off-season of history...

Iannetta’s California Sojourn Lengthened

Via Fangraphs  |  October 08, 2012
Almost three years ago, the Colorado Rockies signed an extension with their 26-year-old catcher, Chris Iannetta. Iannetta was coming off of two good offensive years for a catcher. Although the team had made him split playing time with Yorvit Torrealbea during 2009, the new contract seemed to indicate that Iannetta was going to be the main guy going forward. It was not to be. Iannetta...
