Bigger Disappointment: Dodgers or Angels?
L.A. Dodgers, late of the $214,830,909 payroll, with bonafide MLB stars like Adrian Gonzalez, Carl Crawford, Matt Kemp, Andre Ethier, Hanley Ramirez, Clayton Kershaw, Zach Greinke & Josh Beckett yet buried in last place in the NL West with a 21-28 record.
OR
Anaheim Angels, with a $141,896,520 payroll, saddled with the likes of Josh Hamilton, Mike Trout (reigning AL ROY), Albert Pujols, CJ Wilson, Jared Weaver & Jason Vargas...yet stuck in third place in the AL West with a 23-28 record.
Who loses their job first? Donny Baseball or Mike Scioscia?

Actually, Mattingly belongs in NYY, and Scioscia belongs with LAD. The only other guy I'd pick to manage the Trolley Dodgers wears #2....

I say the Angels because no matter how much they spend the Dodgers alway struggle. Donny Baseball will be gone first.

Well, my initial thought was it was a Dodgers slam-dunk, but then they just took 2 out of 3 from the Angels, so you never know!tampajag wrote:I say the Angels because no matter how much they spend the Dodgers alway struggle. Donny Baseball will be gone first.

I don't like the Angels or Dodgers, so I'm not disappointed at all.
