With Teixeira our 3-4-5 is one of the best in baseball

Gotta hand it to our offense, we've been scoring some runs. We were coming on offensively before the deal but getting Tex puts us over the top. The thing that amazes me is that he is such a patient hitter. He really waits for his pitch to drive. He has been fun to watch and I think guys have fed off of the energy he has brought. Having Tex hitting in front of Vlad is flat out scary. Not sure how I would even approach it. It's almost like pick your poison, after those two guys you have Torii Hunter. Wow. Our 3-4-5 is right up there as one of the best in the bigs.

  I couldn't agree more. It sucks to be a Yankees fan when you're playing the Angels. :( :(

  Nice job John-
  Couldn't agree with you more....oh my gosh! Us fans not only have the best pitching staff on the mound, but DANG!, our boys bats are really coming along. I couldn't wait to put my deposit in for the next phase.
  
  Have a good road trip and we will see you in 7 days at the "A".

  Nice 2 see the Halos running and feeding off that confidence with all cylinders. You wouldn't want to have it any other way!

  You guys are the best team in baseball. I wish the Dbacks could be as consistent as you are. I hope the Sox are rolled in the playoffs and am SOOO happy the Yanks are going south. I agree, your 3-4-5 is pretty awesome. Texieira is a great pickup. Hopefully you guys can retain him after the season. Take care John.
