    He's going through more tests today. So far all they have said is that he is day to day

    That's his hometown team so it's definitely going to be mentioned. So, the Angels would by far have the largest position player contract with Trout and largest pitcher contract with Cole. Doesn't seem like great budgeting for a team that has struggled to find fill-in help around their stars.

    Given the violent collision of Springer's head and neck to the centerfield wall this is the best possible news we could have hoped for.

    You're bringing McClain into the Astros Forum?

    If the Angels drop $40 per on Cole they’re looking at over $100 million on 3 players, one of which is old man Pujols. Crazy money.

    That said I don’t think Cole is getting $40 million a year.

    Pitch him EVERY game in the playoffs until his arm falls off. Might as well use that arm all up while we’ve got it!

    Still say the Rangers make a Godfather-like offer to Cole.

    Hinch is trying to pre-catastrophe the team. Springer is done. Next you will see Bregman randomly flip over the dug out barrier at full speed chasing after a flyball. Don't worry tho'. It's pre-catastrophorification.
