Scioscia has to take some of the training wheels off for hitting given where the Angels are in the standings. I know its a bit difficult since they are also ramping up for pitching, but he was fine after pitching a sim game Monday.

id like to see them experiment with him vs more NL teams AND definitely with lefties. We won't know if he can improve vs lefties until he gets some real plate appearances.

I mean still with his injuries and all I think given what he's done in limited appearances and the impact he's had on the games hes played, he should still be in the ROy race--even though he's a longshot. A couple people have posted articles in the past week about this.

I think once he hit 15HRs people suddenly were like "ok he's a legit hitter."
