He looks done to me. It's tempting to decline his option, particularly if the Halos can lock up Tex -- I'd go 8 years, $160 to get him. I'd also let K-Rod walk, re-sign GA for a reduced salary and try to retain Johnny Rivers. This won't be popular, but the Angels should make a play for Manny, if Scoscia can tolerate his antics. 

Let Wood play short. 

Does anyone know about the progress of Escobar? Is there any realistic chance he'll be back? WIll Adenheart be big-league ready next season. 

Bummer that Thunder Mountain got a late start this season, but he's been light's out in every start. Assuming he mostly maintains what he has going, I can see a 17-4 type season with an era in the low 2s. He just dominates every time out. There might be pitchers with more wins, but I haven't seen anyone this season I'd rather give the ball to in all of baseball. Would you give him the hardware?
