Angels v. Royals

Santana v. De La Rosa

I have always been a huge supporter of Ervin Santana. When people point to his away stats and scream in terror; or when someone wants to say his slider or curveball are below average and his fastball has no movement, I point to his win totals as evidence that he gets it done. That could all change for me tonight if Ervin goes out there and lays another rotten egg against one of the worst franchises in baseball. Ervin is young, I say, but the Royals are just plain awful.

That being said, tonight could pose the only chance the Royals have of taking a game in this series. But this also presents a danger to our beloved Halos. Lose this game and we’re looking at a possible split of this 4 game series. The only upside to such a catastrophe is that Mike Scioscia would get the Angels manager wins record at home on Friday or Saturday. However, we should take 3 out of 4. I never say we should sweep because any team can beat any other team in this league one out of 4 chances. We will see tonight.

After last night’s game the Royals may have learned their lesson, and in doing so look for them to walk Vlad every chance they get. I hate Sosh’s kooky lineup. I would personally take Cabrera out, bat him 5th, and move everyone else up. That top of the order would rival any in the game right now. Matthews, Willits and Vlad! That’s my new battle cry! Say it with me!!! Matthews, Willits and Vlad!

I can’t go against my boy Santana…not…yet.

Angels win.
Love to hear what you think!
