Erstad: "I'm just a tinkerer..."
Darin Erstad on his spasmodic fortunes at the plate:
"I'm just a tinkerer, always have been," Erstad said before Thursday's 3-0 handcuffing of Oakland, which brought the Angels back into a first-place tie with 29 games left.
"I'm tinkering now. But in 2000 I was tinkering, too. I just found something that year, and it clicked. It all comes down to whether I feel comfortable in the box. Whether my hands are in a good position, whether I'm feeling good, whether I'm seeing everything at good angles. I can't explain it what happens to make me feel comfortable or not."
Darin Erstad: comfortable as a hemorrhoid-sufferer sleeping on a bed of nails.
UPDATE: A couple of funny comments over at the Primer.
