Like most of the AL West's top line pitchers, Washburn has some pretty impressive numbers against the Sox and the bats remain stagnant as of late.

Still not sold on Garcia, but he keeps proving me wrong.

Like the Angels, but even with the premium on runs, I like the value in the run line even more

Washburn -1.5 (+204)

probably be a few more scouts keeping an eye on him tonight with the rumours starting..

Rumors are starting to swirl about the Angels potentially shopping Jarrod Washburn.
Their lack of offense this year and Ervin Santana's shutout over the White Sox has people thinking they could deal Washburn, who is in the final year of his contract, for a hitter. ''History has shown that guys in the final year of their contract are more prone to be traded than others,'' Washburn said. ''I'm sure the topic will come up. Let's just say nothing in this game will surprise me.''

from the la times:

The combination of Ervin Santana's emergence as a rotation option, the Angels' need for an offensive boost and Jarrod Washburn's impending free agency probably will make the Angel left-hander the focus of trade rumors this summer. In fact, there is already speculation the Angels will pursue Kansas City's Mike Sweeney or Tampa Bay's Aubrey Huff in a deal.

"History has shown that guys in the final year of their contract are more prone to be traded than others," said Washburn, who will start against the White Sox tonight. "I'm sure the topic will come up. Let's just say nothing in this game will surprise me."

Such speculation would end if the Angels offered Washburn a contract extension, negotiations the pitcher and his agent, Scott Boras, would be very receptive to, but General Manager Bill Stoneman has made no such advances.

"Bill knows our feeling, and he'll come to us if he wants to, but I'm not holding my breath," Washburn said. "It's hard not to think about that because I'm in the last year of a contract, but I'm just doing the best I can to concentrate on my job."
