Arte

[Scott34]

Have we heard one quote from our owner this year?

 

Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of Arte, but shouldn't he be a little more outspoken?  Where is he?

[OregonLAA]

He doesn't speak out against the team. He is probably pretty damn frustrated right now. Maybe he is taking a break like some of us. I was pretty happy not to see one game this weekend. Pathetic.

Arte needs to yell at this team. They need someone with fire to tell them that they stink. Something that hasn't been said the last three years.

[shellback]

frustrated? i doubt it. season ticket moneys in, tv moneys there. saps continue to pay to watch the crap product that is this team.

that game was the most uninspired effort ive seen in along time.

[YouthofToday]

Yeah, I've basically stopped watching Angels game and might not go to a game this year if this keeps up. I live less than an hour from the stadium.

[shellback]

it amazes me that lineup only can manage 1 unearned run.

[Troll Daddy]

How do you yell at players with big contracts?

Answer: you don't

[shellback]

the only way the on the field product might change is if ticket sales decrease to the point its costing arte.

[Scott34]

I'm not purposely NOT going to games, I just don't really want to.  There's no desire to just see guys go through the motions.

 

I live 10 minutes away from the stadium.

Answer: you don't

And please, amazing one, enlighten us as to why not

Does every bit of advice you give involve yelling at somebody, throwing a temper tantrum, or generally making a fool of yourself?

What's really eff'd up is oak just came back to win a game they were down by five runs to a really good baltimore team. Why can't we show that kind of heart? This team seems to be absolutely lost.

[bdavis621]

Somebody has to yell at them. They make tons of money just to hit a ball over a fence. I make hardly anything to bust my tail everyday. I am getting fed up with these spoiled athletes and unfortunately we have too many on this team.

[bdavis621]

Obviously tomsred you must like losing. 

[Bruce Nye]

Arte consistently has said that he leaves the baseball operations to the general manager.  His focus is on marketing the team.   He is an intense competitor and hates losing just as we do.  But he says he leaves the resposibility on the field to his management team.

[Angel Oracle]

This is totally unacceptable. Someone needs to hold them accountable!

Good series to miss. 4 games series without ONE hit with a runner in scoring position!!! Wonder if that has ever happened in the history of MLB.

Serious question here. 

 

Arte has (or had) many other business ventures.  Does he monitor the Angels on a daily basis, or is he busy with other things? 

[nando714]

Ya this sucks

Im lost for words

Don't have much to say anymore

[rick99gtp]

I paid $120 or so for the MLB.TV premium package to watch the Angels play.

 

I live 0 feet from every stadium.

I'm sorry

[rick99gtp]

I'm sorry

 

I'm not happy with the way they are playing.  But, I won't miss a game.  It's still baseball, even if it's disappointing baseball.

I am more sorry that you had to pay 120 to watch this mess. I watch it online for free and am very happy I didn't shell out on MLBTV. I was going too

[Angel_Fan_4_Life]

Arte needs to go into the locker room and tell them they are all a bunch of lollygaggers!!!!

I was thinking the same thing. And what exactly would Moreno say to these guys that they aren't already aware of?
