"High-powered" offense needs a jump start
ESPN: "Royals' Bautista tames high-powered Angels"
High-powered? As compared to what? This is a club that hit 162 homeruns last season (good for 11th in the AL), then got rid of two of their three legitimate power threats - to be replaced by a 40 year-old and a rookie. This team wasn't "high-powered" last season, and even the most optimistic evaluations have this incarnation of the Angels barely equaling that sorry output.
As I've been screaming all offseason, this club is anything but an offensive juggernaut. And I'm sorry to say that the first four games would appear to demonstrate my point.
UPDATE: Yes, the new feature on the side bar is a joke. A joke being "something said or done to evoke laughter or amusement", you humorless bastards.
