The Inland Empire 66ers, a Single-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Angels, will be holding a Zombie Apocalypse night June 12. Gotta love these uni’s.
Now word on whether Rick Grimes has been able to get out of that boxcar at Terminus to throw out the first pitch.

Mike Trout, you may be superhuman, but you’re no superhero as Iron Man had some words for the Angles phenom.

According to the Los Angeles Times, the Los Angeles Angels of somewhere near Los Angeles are working to complete a multi-year contract with Mike Trout that could make him baseball’s first $300 million man.
The Times reports:
“The sides hope to reach a deal after the season starts. Any disappointment over a renewal should be erased by the prospect of what could be a record-setting contract likely to include a signing bonus far exceeding Trout’s 2014 salary.”
The contract would dwarf those of MLB’s highest paid – Alex Rodriguez, Clayton Kershaw and Robinson Cano.
If there’s a player worth a 10-year, $300 million deal, it’s Trout. Just 22 years-old with two MVP caliber seasons under his belt, a career batting line of .314/.404/.544 (166 OPS+), he’s averaged 30 homers, 35 doubles and 41 stolen bases per 162 games played.
Be it this season or next, Trout is going to see the money and will be a force and the face of baseball for years to come.
