When I drafted this out last night, the Angels' starter tonight was unknown and I wrote a long and very funny paragraph on the starter being Not John Lackey that referenced the Lackey YouTube video. It was seriously hilarious, but you'll just have to trust me because now the probable pitchers has been updated. This whole paragraph is pretty unnecessary but since I can no longer use the paragraphs that I had written, this paragraph stands in memorial to those fallen and now useless words.
I wonder if the Angels tweaked their rotation so that Felix would be facing Jered Weaver. It feels like those two face each other frequently. Since the two teams play 19 or so games per year against each other and Weaver and Felix are each at the top of their team's rotations, it would not surprise if my feeling were correct. I don't like it when they pitch in the same game though. Or, more aptly, I do not like that Jered Weaver got legitimately good. Stop striking people out, Jered. Be more respectful and follow your elder brother's example.
I wonder if Doug Fister looks at Joel Pineiro and thinks "yeah, maybe I can get a $30 million contract with my stuff. Also, I look way studlier than he does."
