The Top Ten things that need to happen for the Halos to make the playoffs:
1) Have the 7-9 batters bunt at least once per game.
2) Put the starters on a 110 minimum pitch count.
3) Win four games in a row against the Rays or A’s. Both would be nice.
4) Have Arte explain why the umpires in MLB are under-paid, then express outrage over how the NFL could mess with officals and even allow a female to put on that uniform without a skirt.
5) Pay any price for another reliever, and quick. Even Frankie would do.
6) Skip the fifth starter spot for at least two weeks, assuming anyone can figure out who the worst Angels starter is.
7) Pay the Padres $10 million to get Bud Black back in any capacity.
8) Have Tori point out to Trumbo there is such a thing as right field and that MLB rules allow for balls to be hit in that direction. Even in the air.
9) Scioscia must drink expresso instead of water after the fifth inning. No pasta before the game allowed.
10) Pujols must put the Angels on his back the way Vlad used to do, although he has further to carry that weight.
By the way, the season is not over and I have high hopes going forward.
