The way this team has collapsed is unspeakable. I hope Oakland wins the West and some team other than the Angels win the wild card.

Game, set and match..The Angel season is over. One of the most talented teams in the game have fold shop in the past month. No way they recover from this. Boston is a playoff team, and plays like one. The Angels don't. The overrated manager and his staff need to go.

Just look at the way they've been playing. no emotion, or determination. Renteria hits a pop up that falls between two outfielders and the second baseman. Are you kidding me?The bullpen has been inconsistent, the hitting is non-existent, and they just don't do the little things that playoff teams need to do to win. Especially now, this time of the year, and in this series against a team they could very well be playing in the post season. When they got down tonight, they hung their heads and quit. If those aren't signs of a team packing it in, then I must be seeing things wrong.

UNDER wins

tell ya what i'll do

i'll bet ANYONE here $500 on who wins the AL West - I'll take the Angels and whoever wants to take me up on it can have the A's

we have a neutral 3rd party hold the money until the season ends at which point $1,000 will be coming back my way (my $500 and the person who lost the bet to me)

Anegls WILL win the AL West - something i have said since DAY ONE and something i 100% stand by now

again - the $500 bet is out there for a taker

Trust me, Angels will be in the playoffs. They are overdue to get on a hot streak and they will. Lucky Oakland has been pathetic also lately but the Halos will beat them head to head to finish em off like last year

I had posted, after they were swept at home by the Mariners earlier in the summer, that they wouldn't win in the playoffs with their pitching. I remember Winky's retort that day, that's why I couldn't resist teasing him tonight.. I still stand by that, but Winky and Screech are probably right, the Angels will be in the playoffs at season's end.

Will get a first-hand look myself at the team next week when I am in Seattle and will be able to catch two of their games vs. the Ms. It looks like the Angels won't have to face rookie phenom Felix Hernandez ...

Ok..huge game for Angels. A sweep would be devestating. They need to save some face and play with a passion to win at all costs. Otherwise, my original statement is correct.

Angels will win the division. The Crosby injury was huge for Oakland. Besides, the young A's arms are starting to pile up the innings.

Ok..a new day, a new city and a new potential playoff opponent for the Angels. Very important to keep the momentum going from last nights win over the Red Sox. It wasn't a blow out win over Boston, but a grind out affair that should help restore the Halos confidence.

Angles blow a 2 run lead, and potentially the game...Oakland spanking Texas, and the Indians lead the Twins...AL West could be tied if things hold up..
