Ohtani, Yamamoto, Glasnow....Rivas, Cinder, white?

It's a fairly large and embarrassing gap between the two.

Then why compare them?

Lol..I knew it was you right when I saw the notification.

Why compare?

Well, they are both professional baseball teams, they are cross town rivals, one team just lost the most valuable player to ever play to the other team.

So do they not share a common ground that warrants comparison?

Merry Christmas Strad!

In this scenario you realize you are shit, right?  Don’t be so hard on yourself. We disagree a lot, I tell you I disagree. You don’t like that. You chose to make a comparison before the off season is over. No other team will come close to what the Dodgers did. But by the end of the off season I’m guessing the comparison will look significantly different. I mean I could be wrong maybe you think Cimber and Garcia are the best the Angels will do.

But think of the positives. We've got a solid lock on fourth place.

Rivas ended the season (last two games) batting over .500. Reports I read said he finally figured out a hitch in his swing. Rivas is ready to explode. He has figured it out. I'm interested to see what he does with Moniak protecting him. 
 

thanks Arte!

This is classic. Set up was perfect.

For some reason, it feels like he was with the Angels a decade ago.  I refuse to believe that was '21-'22.

Let's be real.... The last couple years feel like a decade.
