Churning out a pretty good roster with their crappy stadium situation and their limited financial resources. 

Angels stadium is older, their ownership group is way richer than Moreno but invests no money into the stadium or roster. No, I don't have much respect for the cheap assholes.

There's some pretty clear signs of shifting gears lately. Letting Ohtani figure out lefties at the ML level, letting Heaney finish the 8th, and letting Briceno hit when Valbuena was available. If these are truly Sosh's last days as Angels manager they will be against the book he's worked from over the last 5 years

That looks familiar, Long Beach? 

HB at Redz on 17th St. My local dive bar.

Their ownership has more money than Moreno....    They could spend, instead they choose to play the poor card.

Wow they are delusional over on the mariners forum. "Unlucky all day today" when they only even made it to extra innings because of the luckiest "single" I've ever seen.

They have allowed more runs.   They have scored fewer runs.   Their fans think everyone else is lucky....

Yeah they’d be no different than the Marlins without a GM like Beane. Ownership there is ridiculous

Their own fans glossed Wulff, Slumlord Billionaire.

He's angling for an extension? Letting Arte know he's willing to change?

[Jay]

Just catching up now with the score and highlights. This would have been a fun game to watch, although frustrating to allow the game to become tied in the 8th.

Ohtani looked pretty bad on a couple of those K's...

Nice night for Kole and Drew. Too bad Heaney didn't get the win.

Oakland hasn't won shit since 1989. Beane has been the GM for TWENTY years.

The Marlins have won 2 World Series titles since then.

Jeter skus.

You think it’s Beane’s fault (and not ownership) that they’ve never won?

ok I totally disagree

[Lou]

I missed the part where I said he was completely to blame.  I've been criticizing their cheap ownership for years. However, I think he's part of the reason why they haven't won anything substantial in 2 decades. 

[Lou]

Beane is also part of their ownership group, btw.

Didn't realize that Beane has the same power as Scioscia.
