The Angels finished 10th in the American League in runs scored last season and finished with the lowest run differential (plus-68) for any 100-win team in history. They hope Abreu can offset some of the production Mark Teixeira and Garret Anderson provided, andthey will be relying on the further development of young players Kendrick, Aybar and Napoli and the emergence of Morales and, possibly, 3B Brandon Wood. Wood will get a chance in the spring to win the third base job, pushing Figgins into the left field mix or into a roving utility role. After the worst two-month start in his career last year, the Angels are looking for Guerrero to rebound with a healthier knee and the motivation of playing in the final year of his contract.
