And there are people willing to trade Marsh?

I think this off-season is going to be a pure exercise in Eppler spending Arte-elevated payroll with maybe one or two trades, barring the opportunity to acquire a game-changing star player.

i think the only way we trade Marsh, is if we miss out in free agency. Which i don't see happening. I have been one of his  biggest fan.

Marsh sporting a sick slash line in the AFL. Tonight is the AFL All Star Game that he and Adell will play in.

I am about to drive over to the stadium. It's one of the busiest games of the season and they have the second worst parking.

They opened the gates at 1:30 for a 5pm game. My guess is the autograph hounds, and there are too damn many of these creepy old guys, have sucked up all of the primary parking and I'm going to have to make the hike from the lower lot.

The future @Angels outfield. Two thirds of it anyway. Clearly @joadell25 and @brandon_marsh22 don’t enjoy playing together. pic.twitter.com/qvnSArtgJN

Marsh has definitely had a turf war with other surfers off Oxnard beach. He's been surfing for 11 months.

I can't get any more erect looking at that picture.

We get it, you like Wendy's. No need to rub it in Strad's face.

Marsh will be known as Jesus of Anaheim soon.

Adell is batting 2nd for the AFL East. Game starts in an hour.

Picture Trout between the two of them, arms around both in a fatherly manner. And Shohei Ohtani sitting on the bench in the background, firmly inspecting the handle of his bat.

There you go.

How about this?

[Angelsjunky]

On a serious note, if the old saying is true--that "if you can throw but not run, you're a RFer, if you can run but not throw, you're a LFer, and if you can do both you're CF"--what is the best configuration of these three in 2021 and beyond? That saying doesn't take into account reading the ball, routes, etc, but is a good starting point.

Afaik, both Marsh and Adell have similar running ability. Who has the better arm? And what about routes and such? 

I don't expect Trout to give up CF for a few years yet.

Trout still in CF for awhile.  He's comfortable there and good at it.  Marsh has the better arm so RF.  Adell in LF.

Adell in LF and Marsh in RF.

Marsh looks more like the better center fielder.

Great minds. Hard to disagree when you both say the same thing.

Anyone else feel a touch of movement?

 

 

 

 

Guys?

He definitely has an infinitely better arm than the other one (Johnny Damon).

It is a great OF to look forward to.   All three have excellent range, and good arms too.

[Second Base]

Both went hitless in the Fall Star game and Mattson gave up a run. 

Organization over.

Alas Marsh drove in a run and Maatson got the win!

The patient lives!
