Bruce Bochy ?

I'm sure that Bochy is enjoying retirement, and this is hardly a situation that would lure him out of it.

Another 1 run win by Nevin's newbies.   Pitching has not been the problem in 2022 and has good potential for 2023.   This team is still playing hard to win games.

Nevin manages them to another one run loss to one of the worst teams in the AL.

Seems like people forget Scioscia's teams were mediocre for quite a while

Mediocre, not bad.

Scioscia's last year the won 44.4% of games.  They had four losing seasons in a row.  

This year...  43.7% .   

Last year they won more often than in two of Scioscia's final four years.

Let him go.

The starting pitching is actually really good.  We need to spend our available payroll on improving the offense.

Be the top bidder for Trae Turner.  Concentrate on bringing in players with high OBP profiles.  If not Turner, then Dansby Swanson. 

Fix Jared Walsh, or bring in a platoon partner that crushes lefties. 

We need to stop giving away outs.

I don't know where you got those stats.  However er Mike Scioscias worst year  was 2016 74-88 .457%

He had losing record the last three years not four ND his last season was 80-82.  Scioscia's last 9 years where he only made the playoffs once but won 80+ plus games 7 of those 9 years.

We haven't won 80 games in a season since.

Gonna be interesting to see how the potential sale of the Angels changes things.

Is the manager in 2023 basically signing up to manage for one season and then get fired when new ownership presumably takes full reign and cleans house after 2023?

Yep, only four below .500 seasons for Sosh in the first 16 seasons, and spaced apart (2001, 2003, 2010, 2013).
