My opinion is that they needed an impact bat at 3rd. People will argue with Chone Figgins’ success since late May. However they need someone to bat behind Vladimir Guerrero. Figgins could have been packaged in a trade with a prospect or two to get a power-hitting third sacker. The problem is, most teams wanted Joe Saunders, and the Angels pitching depth is down with the injury to Bartolo Colon, and Ervin Santana pitching more like Carlos Santana, than Johan Santana. The other problem? No one seemed to be offering any power-hitting third basemen.
