5 years, eh? Anything in particular happening 5 years after his retirement?

[UndertheHalo]

Damn.  Can’t believe this is the last spring training thread before the Angels win the World Series.

I'd take a chance on Akiyama.  We could use the depth and even though he hasn't hit well in the majors so far, a change of scenery could do him some good.  Tsutsugo couldn't hit on the Rays or Dodgers but played very well for the Pirates upon signing with them

Carlos Beltran makes big admission about Astros' cheating scandal

Nearly five years after spearheading one of Major League Baseball’s dirtiest scandals, former Astro Carlos Beltrán has come clean. A remorseful Beltrán, part of the 2017 Houston World Series champions, now admits that the Astros "crossed the line" with their sign-stealing tactics.

"Looking back now, yes, we did cross the line," Beltrán said via an interview with Michael Kay and YES Network set to air later today.

 

 

 

good to see he's so morally centered.

How can you see sunset with all that smog. I cannot go to Chavez Ravine because I do not own a gun.

Dodger’s stadium is considerably nicer today than the big A. 20 years ago it was the other way around.

About what? Are they going to ask him real questions about his mismanagement of the team and why it's currently in the state it's in and has been in for years now? Going to address his terrible FA signings and going through so many GM's and lack of scouting? How about why he's never gone all in while having the best baseball player for years that might be one of the greatest ever and so many other real questions fans actually care about?
