Its a well known fact, young players that leave Angels org. thrive elsewhere

[QuinlansMinion]

Why is that?  Well maybe its because our coaching staff sucks. 

Jordan Walden - 2.70 ERA, .94 WHIP

 

Now back to the thread title.  Its a well known fact that when young players who are struggling in Angels system leave to another team, they instantly get better. 

There are examples of players who got worse like Figgins and Lackey, they are past their prime. 

 

So we can all conclude that, Angels coaching staff holds back young players because they suck at developing them, and have horrible baseball philosophies.

Your logic is irrefutable.

Hey, it's a well known fact. That statement alone is proof enough.

[Lifetime]

Of course, I stand corrected. 

[ScottT]

He is doing better.  2 unintentional walks in 22 innings. Interesting considering he always had control problems.  Then again, how is Fernando Rodney's control this year?   I'll opt for a bigger sample size before concluding that Braves coaches made him better.

besides Walden, who are these players?  

 

Also, Walden did very well for a few months with the Angels....after all he was an All Star for the halo's

[ukyah]

man could this guy be more right? just look at all the proof.

[stormngt]

Let's see:

 

Dallas MacPhearson:  did not do better when leaving the Angels

Casey Kotchman:  Did not do better

Brandon Wood:  enough said

Sean Rodriguez:  enough said

Napoli: did well for the Angels and is doing well after.

Rodney: was not a young player and did do better for the Rays.  However, he is back to sucking this year.

 

I guess you can say O'Day, however, O'Day pitched well for the Angels.  It was a huge mistake losing him!

 

Waldan:  Walden was an All Star as a Rookie, so please don't say he is doing better for the Angels.

 

Now, how about the young Angels the coaches are currently screwing up!

 

Trout, Bourjos, Trumbo.....yes, the front office is really screwing those guys up.  Trout would be the greatest player ever if he wasn't on the Angels.  Bourjos and Trumbo would both be in the Hall of Fame.

 

Can we now conclude that the original post was one of the most illogical post of all time?

The world is going to end in 2012.  It is a common known fact.  Just look at the proof!

[tomsred]

I'm waiting for the list of "horrible baseball philosophies."  Those sound real juicy.

[Angel Oracle]

I forget, but who was the player they promoted to the 40 man roster that forced them to leave O'Day off of it?

[Bruce Nye]

Does Mathis make the list?

[austin724]

It's time for the organization to change its way of thinking. No more big free agent signings for another 4 years. Just work on the farm system.

[AZMike]

Does Mathis make the list?

After Mathis left and Iannetta was brought in the ERA's of Weaver, Haren, Santana, and others went up nearly a full run. 

[Angel Oracle]

And outside of the walks, Iannetta is no better than Mathis.

[jshep]

Except for the part where Iannetta is actually good at baseball and Jeff Mathis isn't

Mathis has a far better slugging percentage with runners in scoring position than Josh Hamilton.

[Angelsjunky]

John Lackey is actually having a bit of a comeback year.

[Vegas Halo Fan]

Does Mathis make the list?

 

He should. He is definitely thriving in Miami, along with the rest of his Marlins teammates. They are on pace for a record season.

[Kenny]

John Lackey is actually having a bit of a comeback year.

How old is 34 in horse years?

[FabulousFabregas]

I told all of you Lackey for Wells would have been great.

[austin724]

I still wouldn't want him. What human being leaves their spouse because they are diagnosed with cancer. Lackey is horseshit!!

[jshep]

I told all of you Lackey for Wells would have been great.

But we wouldn't have been able to enjoy the fact that Kramer Sneed and Exicardo Keyones are real names.

[ScottT]

Because of the diagnosis?  Link?
