So it just occured to me that the Angels aren't wearing a patch for Jim Fregosi

[jshep]

That seems odd.

[Amazing Larry]

The whole patch thing has gotten a little out of hand IMO.

He was working for another organization at the time of his death. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it. Just throwing it out there as a possibility.

At the Fanfest Tim Mead indicated that they would be honoring him during the season.  They will probably do some kind of special night at the Stadium.  Probably they will have his family attend, give them something special as a memorial, and do a video presentation.  I would think that would be very appropriate.

Pretty classless if you ask me. I was going to say something on Wednesday.

I can't tell if this is serious.

They might be worried that Bobby Knoop would be swallowed into the earth at home plate.

The world will go on if the team doesn't wear another patch.

 

Patch-mania is out of frigging control.

[disarcina]

yeah, the whole Fregosi era seems to be have forgotten by some in Anaheim.

 

back when there wasn't much going for the team (perhaps like past two seasons, perhaps this year, too?) Jim Fregosi WAS the Angels.

 

Halos' best player, All-Star rep and literal face of the franchise for about a decade.

 

things move on, times change, memories blur..........

 

to me, there are really only four franchise players Halos in Halos history: Fregosi, Ryan, Salmon and now Trout.

 

a fifth, if you include a non-player,  Gene Autry.

how is there patch mania and how has it gotten out of control? too many people dying for you?

2014 patch budget has already been allocated for Derek Jeter. The Angels will wear two in his honor.

[AngelsLakersFan]

It's odd considering how much the Phillies did for him.

and theyll both be the number 2.

Ill be there for the painting bobblehead for sure.
