Mike Trout’s agent, Craig Landis, is disappointed with the Angels over the amount of money for which they chose to renew his client’s contract. Trout just completed his rookie season for the Angels. MLB players with 0-3 years of service …
The Los Angeles Angels enter the 2013 season with a roster filled with superstars, but none may be more popular than Mike Trout. The 21-year-old burst onto the scene last year and was one of the best players in baseball. Had it not been for Miguel …
The Angels announced a major move on Tuesday when they fired hitting coach Mickey Hatcher and replaced him with Triple-A hitting coach Jim Eppard. The switch means much more than a potential for the team’s hitting to improve; it indicates a …
One month of the baseball season has passed. Albert Pujols has as many home runs on May 2nd as he did on December 2nd. The Dodgers are in first place, this time not just for being one of the Major Leagues’ most mismanaged teams. Who would have …
The Angels promoted prospect Mike Trout and released Bobby Abreu on Friday in response to the team’s early-season struggles. The Angels are 6-14, have lost five in a row, and are currently one of the worst teams in the American League. …

Every once in a while we hear a classic tale from the ballpark that only comes along — as cliche as it may sound — once in a lifetime. This past Saturday, the script for one of those tales was written for longtime Angels fan and former …
As we wrote in March, the Angels had one of the best giveaways ever planned for their May 10th game against the White Sox. They gave away wrestling masks to every single fan in attendance with the goal of setting the Guinness World Record for the …
