well since NYY or BOS will tie up the wild card spot, where does that leave Oakland when Anaheim wins the west ???

Time to change the signature .....

the west belongs to oakland. aneheim is gonna beat out either one of em for the wild card.

zona, sf, and l.a. should be at the center of your concerns right now...

Not unless they sign a couple of bats before the season starts. Right now it looks like a very frustrating year for Oakland pitchers. Losing 1-0, 2-0, 2-1, will get very old, very fast.

who else will win it? the angels clearly dont have an effective rotation and other than garrett and a healthy glaus (big if) they have an average offense. good bullpen

seattle has an okay offense with a decent pitching staff but they choke after the break every time.

texas has no pitching.

that leaves oakland with the best pitching staff in baseball, a good bullpen including the best closer in the a.l. hopefully and new prospects with a speedy outfield

We'll see, but I just don't see Chavez carrying the entire offense by himself. He's talented, but he cannot do it alone.

Bartolo Colon - S - Chicago White Sox Dec 5

The Angels refused to confirm or deny reports that they have offered Bartolo Colon a contract.
Speculation is that they've offered him $48 million over four years. If they sign Colon, the Angels would then attempt to deal Jarrod Washburn or Ramon Ortiz for offense. Washburn has all the trade value, so he'd probably be the one to go. Source: Los Angeles Times

Looks like the Angels are stepping up the offer.

So, Mad...

Do you think the Halos will keep Shields in the rotation? He made a pretty good starter...

The West should be fun next year. But with Zito, Hudson, Mulder, Harden and (?), the A's will be fine. They may start off slow in the runs department, but by the end of the season they'll be producing enough to win.

Is Duscherer (sp) going to get that last spot?

What do the Halos look like next season?
