Jason Vargas knows that whenever the Los Angeles Angels' lineup puts up an eye-popping performance befitting all of its money and talent, their starting pitcher's job becomes a whole lot easier. And though Vargas didn't need all the help he got Monday night, he thinks the Angels' latest offensive barrage means smoother days ahead for an up-and-down club. Albert Pujols had an RBI double among his four hits, Josh Hamilton hit a two-run homer and Los Angeles pounded out a season-high 21 hits in an 11-3 victory over the Seattle Mariners.
