@Chuckster70 Can you please tag MacKenzie Scott on Twitter too? 

Who's that? Serious question.

Hopefully.  When the new stadium happens.

Ex wife of Jeff Bezos of Amazon fame.  Worth a shit ton of money that she's giving away.

What's the story there?  I remember something coming up a while back.  Do they just not like each other?  If so, meh.   Plenty of former players speak well of Arte Moreno.  Tim Salmon, especially.  

I have no idea what the story is there. Was surprised when I saw that tweet.

Those 200 people that attend the games will have to endure.

I'm surprised you didn't want a transgender person to buy the Angels. 

What makes you think he doesn't?  He didn't use any pronouns leaving all of the options open.

I definitely remember reading something about Carew not liking Moreno. I don’t recall why, though.

Second richest woman in America. She built Amazon and let Jeff Bezos take the credit.

Maybe Craig will buy the Angels.

Checking the couch now for some extra coins to make my offer!

[ScottT]

Who is the richest transgender person?

[ten ocho recon scout]

We need a new thread on what the new owner will name the team.

MacKenzie Scott plans on giving all her money away within her lifetime. 

She could make more money with the Angels and give that away.

Damn, Arte broke AW.com?

Let's all chip in and own the Angels as an AW group.

Thought this was gonna be Trout's reaction...

One of the greatest players ever weighs in on the Arte Moreno announcing his intention to sell the Angels.

[angelsnationtalk]

Let's hope Arte sells sooner rather than later. Angels can't afford a gap year with Ohtani in his last year and Trout turning 32.

Nah it was something else. Fixed though, shouldn't happen again. 

[ten ocho recon scout]

I know Arte isn't too popular on here, but...

I do feel bad for him. I think he truly wanted to build the team into an empire. Came so close in the 2000s, nut could never get that ring.

Spent a billion dollars trying to chase one down and only got worse. Went from looking like a great owner to a sad joke in the fanbase and media.

Sucks for him.

Re:  The Carew feud.  Only thing I found.  Sorry Chuck.  And even this article is lacking on the details.  

Rod Carew calls out LA Angels leadership while praising fans

So how many people think MLB wanted him out because of the Skaggs and stadium scandals, along with the fact that the league can't be happy their biggest stars are never in the playoffs?

A decent conspiracy theory.
