Have we skipped the first 3 stages of grief and gone straight to depression?

The Angels got Ohtani cheaply in his 20s. Someone is going to get him (extremely) expensively in his 30s. 

If it's not the Angels, I will be just fine.

This is a very good point and should help with those grieving after his departure. If he leaves.

Yamamoto Pivot!

 

[Tyler]

Well good for my fantasy team as he’ll likely shatter Bonds’ HR record in Toronto.

He'll be taking his talents to Yonge St.

This

Will cheer him on the first game against the Halos, as thanks, and then he’s like any other superstar opposing player.

$500-$600 million is a lot to commit, when the pitching is a question mark going forward.

Pivot to Yamamoto and two more solid late innings guys.

Will be some $65 million under tax threshold, and free up $16 million more after 2024 (Estevez and Drury).

Can then also sign Burnes or Bieber after 2024.

Being over the tax threshold in 2025 and 2026 only will not hurt much.

in before he signs with toronto to say good, im happy the angels didnt give him 600mil.

now i cant be accused of coping.

[zenmaster]

Best case scenario is he goes to any team besides the Dodgers and then we somehow sign Yamamoto. 

[zenmaster]

Welcome to the pain everyone. 

[TroutField]

6 years of kiddie gloves, building a roster around him, doing whatever the fuck he needed, 2 Tommy John surgeries, huge gaps of struggling as the DH, and then shits on the Angels by signing with the Dodgers. 
 

honestly I knew he would sign with the dodgers but I feel pretty bitter that he did the angels this way. Have fun with the 70 million dollar DH next year.

And the rally monkey you rode in on, Farte.

Very nice coping method. I think it’s delusional but ok

Your coping method seems to be rage posting at 2am.
