Los Angeles Angels Make Right Move By Cutting Joe Blanton

Heading into his third year with the Los Angeles Angels, first baseman
Albert Pujols had his eye set on redeeming the disappointment of last season. However, he has not met those self-set expectations. Through three games this season, it has been a slow start for Pujols as he is batting .167 (2-of-12) with no home runs, one RBI, one run scored and three strikeouts. This includes striking out once in each game and going 0-for-4 in the series finale on Wednesday against the Seattle Mariners. More > Los Angeles Angels Smart to Stay Out of Tanaka Bidding War

The Los Angeles Angels finally came to their senses as they made the long-awaited move of cutting ties with pitcher Joe Blanton.
In this year’s Spring training, Blanton has struggled on the mound as he has a 7.08 ERA in five appearances in 20.1 innings pitched. This includes giving up multiple runs in four out of the five games he pitched, with his worst performance coming on Mar. 7 against the Colorado Rockies where he allowed seven runs on eight hits with four home runs in 2.1 IP.
