Multiple News Outlets reporting that a Deal has been made to Send JOSH HAMILTON to Texas

The unreported deal would supposedly burden Texas with only $15mm of the $83mm remaining on the slugger.

Apparently the Angels have tired of the off the field antics and machinations of the troubled all star.

NOTABLE INJURIES: JOSH HAMILTON starts the season on the DL/Suspension list, nagging injuries have kept GARRET RICHARDS and CORY RASMUS on the 15 day DL coming out of the spring..          

PROJECTION:  2ND place in the AL West. Projected wins = 88.

MVP:         MIKE TROUT                               

POTENTIAL ROOKIE IMPACT:  ANDREW HEANEY (LHP) and KYLE KUBITZA (3B) might break into the mix in 2015.

COMMENTS:  The Angels will miss the protection JOSH HAMILTON provides because they are very thin on the bench. They will be very competitive in the best division in baseball.
