Sign CC 2. Sign Lowe (Or trade for peavy, if he can be had for cheap enough) 3. Send Some prospects to Detroit (include Wilits) for Magglio Ordonez. 4. Sign Dunn Win 2009 World Series.. Watch Rinse Repeat Added Bonus (If they just sign CC or trade for peavy) Their whole starting rotation is under 30 Easy Offseason.

He had an ERA of 3.49 and struck out 214 batters over 219 innings. And you're going to, what, move him to the bullpen? Jeez, Nick, what does a guy have to do to earn a spot in the rotation? Also, I disagree that the AL West is going to be a gimme for the Angels this season. I think the A's are one Rafael Furcal away from contending. And I don't think the Angels are as good as their record indicated last season. Their pythagorean record gave them only 88 wins. Ervin Santana won 16 games last year.
