2021 will be different somehow. 

The names will change, the excuses won’t.

Adell is not ready for prime time.

Unfortunately, we have no choice but to put him out there.

I can't believe how someone who got picked that high in the draft, performed really well in the minor leagues and was selected as one of the top 3 prospects in all of baseball could play so poorly in every aspect of the game.

Starting to doubt Billy will be around to make the 2021 pick...

He throws the ball like a beer leaguer.

Not to say "I told you so", but...

You were right. 

They couldn't even get him to third.

Why didn't they, Why didn't they, Why didn't they??? Sigh........

I could bitch ALL NIGHT!

Have a good rest of the weekend!

Go Halos!

The kind of game you just have find a way to win.

Could have been some real momentum and confidence builder. But again, it just slipped away. 

Looking for some clutch leadership.

Angels really midway through the season and still haven't reached double digit wins. Not even the most pessimistic fan could have seen this level of suck from this team

[eligrba]

The Angels had the first two batters who could not execute to move the runner. The A‘s had their first two batters execute to move the runner.....this is one of the reasons why Angels continue to lose...this failure is not an isolated incident.

This franchise is a total mess.

1) Arte, stay out of ANY future moves!  Just give the oks.

2) Fire Eppler, and get Logan White in here to do his Bill Stoneman impression and build a REAL Amateur/MLB scouting staff and a REAL farm system, and MAYBE then by 2024 they will FINALLY contend again!
