 Player Notes

Nov 5 OF Bobby Abreu played 152 games during the regular season, the 12th consecutive season he has appeared in at least 150 games. Only four other players have appeared in 150 or more games over 12 consecutive seasons -- Willie Mays (13), Billy Williams, Pete Rose and Cal Ripken Jr. Yahoo! Sports


Nov 5 The Angels have re-signed Abreu to a two-year contract, which includes a club option for 2012, the Associated Press reports.

Recommendation: Abreu's signing in the spring turned out to be a win-win for both sides, as he was without a home for a good part of the winter while a lot of other big names signed for big money. He rewarded the Angels in 2009, batting .293 with 15 home runs, 103 RBI and 30 stolen bases. Abreu's fine patience at the plate also seemed to rub off on a lot of his new teammates. This is a good location for Abreu to continue his quest for an eighth straight 100-plus RBI season.

Nov 5 Abreu agreed Thursday to a $19 million, two-year contract to stay with the Los Angeles Angels rather than test the free-agent market again.

Advice: Abreu hit .293 this year with 15 home runs, 103 RBIs and 30 steals. The two-time All-Star has driven in at least 100 runs in seven straight seasons.
