ANAHEIM — Reliever José Cisnero on Saturday to a $1.75 million, one-year contract with the Angels. A right-hander who turns 35 on April 11, Cisnero was 3-4 with two saves and a 5.31 ERA in 63 games for Detroit last season, striking out 70 and walking 25 in 59⅓ innings. He allowed a career-high 10 home runs, up from six in 2022. Cisnero averaged 94.4 mph with his fastball, up from 93.4 mph in 2022 but down from 96.4 mph in 2019. He is 13-17 with a 3.99 ERA in seven seasons with the Houston Astros (2013-14) and the Tigers (2019-23), striking out 275 and walking 130 in 259⅓ innings. Cisnero had Tommy John surgery on May 28, 2014, then he pitched for Mexico’s Sultanes de …

Emphasis on 2024 only. Meaning, picking the first doesn't mean the Angels won't compete in 2025; picking the second doesn't mean Trout doesn't bounce back in 2025. I'm guessing most pick the second, but I'm actually picking the first - at least for 2024. More than anything, I want to see some semblance of the old Trout back, and feel that if he doesn't bounce back this year, he never will. Maybe it is because I don't have much expectations for contention this year and can another two or three years. I just feel like seeing Trout back would be immensely enjoyable.

Perhaps old news - but I just saw it on NetFlix - get documentary -- our pal (formerly. Pinetar here - Rob Goldman - author of "when they were Angels' and also a book about. Nolan Ryan is in the documentary quite. a bit - talking about his. days as an Angels bat boy and about watching Nolan Ryan Anyway, it's a great documentary about one of. MLB's greatest pitchers of all time, It talks about Ryan's Texas roots -- and the documentary made me more understanding why it's OK for Nolan Ryan to be wearing a. Texas cap in the HOF -- even if his best seasons and best stats. were during his Angels years -- although. - as the documentary points out -- Ryan had some great…

Installment 11: “When Mike Trout reported to spring training in mid-February 2020, he had more career WAR through the age of 27 than any player in Major League Baseball history.” —Me OR "Since 2014, Mike Trout's 151 home runs are the fourth most in baseball." —Fun Fact on the Angels’ Stadium scoreboard, May 2018 1. When a game begins, Mike Trout is in center field. In the top of just one first inning, he: kicks grass, smoothes kicked grass, stares into his glove, fiddles with straps of glove, removes glove, checks the count on the left-field scoreboard, checks the hitter’s stats on the right-field scoreboard, randomly salutes at nothing, checks his b…

I thought we needed a thread where we can bring attention to some random historical stuff from yesteryear or stuff that just pops up in the present day that you would like to bring attention to. I'll kick this thread off with Darin Erstad regarding his season in 2000.

I know you all have your favorite NFL teams and some of you ( @Chuck ) hate the 49ers, but I just wanted to shine a light on this to maybe persuade you all to supporting the 49ers in the Superbowl. Brock Purdy is pretty known for being Mr. Irrelevant of the 2022 Draft, and now leading the 49ers to the Super Bowl this year after a disastrous UCL injury in the NFC championship game against the Eagles in 2022. UCL injuries are very rare in the NFL, unlike in Baseball. His Dad, Shawn, was an Angels draft pick, played for the Angels minor leagues for a few years and unfortunately also had UCL issues, which derailed his career as TJ wasn't as common in the 1990's as it is …

In This Space, we have often referred to Southern California as the most diverse (and occasionally most fickle) sports market on this continent. We have two of most every team in every major team sport. We have two major conference college programs operating cheek-to-jowl with major league franchises. We get cameo appearances from almost all of the itinerant sports circuits, starting with this Sunday’s NASCAR Clash in the Coliseum (although it would be nice if the tennis tours would again land in the nation’s second-largest market in the summertime, rather than merely touching down in Indian Wells in March). Also, dare I point out, we will have our third Olympic Games f…

Most people here will likely want to skip this, it's stat nerd heavy, but if you are interested in stuff like that you'd be well served to read this excellent article at FG... https://library.fangraphs.com/pitching/stuff-location-and-pitching-primer/ This post leans heavily on the information in this article but for anyone not wanting to read the long form or that doesn't want to have to look at a bunch of graphs you can basically focus on these three excerpts/summaries on the three major pitch modeling components. Stuff+ Stuff+ looks only at the physical characteristics of a pitch. Important features include, but are not limited to, release point, velo…

Griffin Canning, Angels Theoretically, a sleeper is someone who has a high probability of out-earning their consensus ranking. The irony is that because these inherent probabilities are already incorporated into my ranking list, it becomes difficult to select someone who will further exceed this baked-in potential upside. In Canning’s case, it’s been a litany of injuries that has suppressed his dynasty value and not a question of skills. Canning reached 127 innings in 2023 after previously never amassing 100 innings in a season, holding opponents to an ERA of 4.32. All estimators suggest that his true talent was closer to 4.00. Canning averaged a reasonable 94.5 mph…

There's been much chatter in fandom and the media that Logan's going to take off. I'm concerned that he may face undue pressure. What do you think about this? Is it any different from any pressure of our top picks? Wood, Adell, etc.?

ANAHEIM — The Angels and outfielder Aaron Hicks have agreed to a one-year, $740,000 contract. The Angels announced the deal with the former Long Beach Wilson High standout on Monday. Hicks’ salary is the major league minimum and will be offset against the $9.5 million he was guaranteed by the New York Yankees, who released him from a $70 million, seven-year contract that also assured a $9.5 million salary in 2025 plus a $1 million buyout of a 2026 club option. Hicks, 34, was released by the Yankees after slashing just .188/.263/.261 through the first two months of the 2023 season but he improved to .275/.381/.425 in 65 games for the Baltimore Orioles. He batted .253 wi…

Angels pitchers and catchers are scheduled to report to spring training on Feb. 13. As we count down the days until camp begins, we are going through the various position groups to give a breakdown of where the roster stands. Today, the infielders. Previously: Outfielders, catchers. 2023 RECAP The Angels built their roster with enough extra players to get them through some injuries, but it wasn’t enough for what they endured. Third baseman Anthony Rendon, first baseman Jared Walsh, second baseman Brandon Drury, utility infielder Gio Urshela and shortstop Zach Neto (who began the season at Triple-A) all spent more than a month on the injured list. David Fletcher spent mos…

Estevez (R) Stephenson (R) Garcia (R) Soriano (R) Joyce (R) Cimber (R) Suarez (L) Looks like they need another lefty...Moore come on down. Or perhaps they have confidence in Ingram to be a lefty option in the pen? Or if they sign a starter one of their lefty rotation arms likely goes to the pen. Does Anderson end up there? Sandoval / Detmers / Canning and Silseth are in the rotation, right?

Sept. 17, 1984: Reggie hits No. 500 Aug. 4, 1985: Carew collects No. 3,000 June 18, 1986: Sutton wins No. 300 June 3, 2017: Pujols clubs No. 600 For three consecutive seasons, one each year, Angels fans were treated to a player reaching a Hall of Fame milestone while wearing an Angels uniform. More impressively, each accomplished the feat at Anaheim Stadium. First up was Reggie Jackson. The self-proclaimed “straw that stirs the drink” arrived in Anaheim two years earlier, signing as a free agent and bringing with him 425 home runs in 14 previous seasons. Jackson immediately delivered to his billing, whopping 39 home ru…

Would you trade Luis Rengifo for Tanner Houck? Red Sox need a starting 2B both now and in the future. Houck may or may not be part of their rotation, but he's a first round pick, blew through the minor leagues with no trouble, and despite uncertainty of time z has been fantastic in the majors, posting very solid ERA, FIP and K%. The Angels need another starting pitcher. Rengifo had a breakout year last year, but the Angels already have some depth at 2B, with much more on the way.

In the spirit of the cold stove and our teams lack of movement also some one posting up about Jose Guillen got me thinking back to the days of Fan Fest. What ever happened to this event before the season ? I remember going every year I knew about it and now nothing. You would think it would be a good way to get fans behind a team that on paper is not so good if folks could actually meet the players and get pictures,autographs and the such. Arte could get Del Taco to give dicount tacos in the parking lot. Are we the only team in baseball that doesnt have one of these events ?

As we count down the days until camp begins, we are going through the various position groups to give a breakdown of where the roster stands. Today, we look at the catchers. Previously: outfielders. 2023 RECAP Max Stassi’s hip injury – and subsequent time away to tend to his prematurely born son – set the stage for Logan O’Hoppe to begin the season as the starter, even though he’d played just five major league games previously. He established himself as a favorite of the pitchers and he showed some pop with his bat, but he hurt his shoulder two weeks into the season, requiring surgery tha…

"Today is the first day of the last season of one of the most remarkable careers in sports! I’m talking about my husband @albertpujols who since the time he was a child would eat, sleep, and breath this sport. I have had the privilege to walk out 23 years of this baseball journey and it is with such a full heart that I speak a blessing over him as he finishes this good race! I’ve never known anyone more dedicated, disciplined and consistent than Albert. He has loved the game, he has hurt for the game, and he made sacrifices for this game as if it was his own child. He has grown from just a zealous young man into a confident leader who so many look up to. We by no means ar…

Hey smart guys got a question for you. A couple of assumptions here, one we are going to a 5 man rotation and the other is we can carry one less pitcher because Shohei was a two way player, although I am not sure that will impact the number of pitchers in the pen. Anyway, here is my question, do you see a chance our starters will be asked to go a little deeper into games as they are maturing? Or the fact they are pitching in a traditional 5 man rotation, would that limit innings per start because they will be asked to start a few more games over the course of a season? Only a hand full of pitchers in the majors averaged 6 innings per start last year. Canning averaged t…

Shortstop Joswa Lugo, a Dominican shortstop with a powerful bat, was the Angels’ top signee among the 15 players they inked on the first day of the international signing period on Monday. Lugo, 16, reportedly received a $2.3 million signing bonus, the largest among the Angels’ signees. Lugo was rated the No. 8 international prospect in this year’s class by Baseball America, and he was No. 37 by MLB Pipeline. The Angels also spent $685,000 on Dominican outfielder Hayden Alvarez and $575,000 for Dominican shortstop Greylin De La Paz. Alvarez was ranked No. 63 and De La Paz was ranked No. 70 by Baseball America. The Angels also signed No. 87 Humberto Tibieri, a catcher fro…
