Who is the most likely to thrive after leaving Anaheim?

[Waybackman]

Many players who have had less than great stints with the Halos have gone on to succes with other teams. Who do you think will do better if/when they move on? Trumbo, Jepsen, Kohn, Howie, Aybar, Burjos, Hanson, etc?

[Stradling]

Trout. You're welcome chicken littles.

[xboom28x]

No one has left yet but we are to predict who will be more successful elsewhere? Geez this place is miserable. Wake me up when it's over.

[m0nkey]

Jerry dipoto

Its been over since mid April.

Mike Scioscia

And everyone arguing that he should be fired will be pissed that we let him go.

[ELEVEN]

Any of the pitchers.

[James]

The Angels, once they move to Mexico City

[Ray McKigney]

The Angels, once they move to Mexico City

 

They're already in Anaheim, that's pretty much the same thing.

[Kenny]

Is 'all of the above' an option?

[Freezer]

It would depend on what team and the situation they go into, I would think.

[wopphil]

Definitely Jeppy.  I see him becoming an elite closer somewhere.

Tomsred and Stormn jump to Scioscia's defense, and warn us all how bad it's gonna be without the fatman...what a shocker.

Scioscia will probably do OK if he goes where he always belonged, the Secondary League. Where pitchers hit and bunts are part of the game. I see him doing about Dusty Baker level managing. Piling up wins in the reg season, and blowing big games with head-scratching pitching management. He will need a Scott Shields rubber armed clone..and a closer like the Reds have... to win any divisions, but at least in the NL he will look good. Maybe he will wind up with the Reds.

But aside from a couple of posters on this board, no tears will be shed when he is sent off to the NL.

As far as players that will do better somewhere else...pick a pitcher, any pitcher.

Scioscia's pal Butcher is probably the most worthless pitching coach in baseball today. No way he would have a job if he didn't have Scioscia to cover his sorry ass.

Can't wait for Scioscia to go. Wish it would happen today.

No thanks, I'll be happy when the mikeromanager is gone

[JAHV76]

Hanson will start a band after the season.

[Homebrewer]

Madson will buy his own private jet and go on the senior tour, and Hanson will win 20 games for the A's.

Exactly. Its pretty hard to take this place lately. I get being frustrated and all, but its time to get over it and start talking about building a contender for 2014 and beyond.

It is posts like this that make me sick of this year.  Teams, corporations go through down times.  If we won or lost every year something would be wrong.  You have bad years like this so you can enjoy the good ones.

Where did you learn to read?  I never said things would be bad without Scioscia.  I just said I believe Scioscia will have a lot of success.....like the Success he had with the Angels not too long ago.  Oh, what league was that?????

 

I never said the Angels new manager would do a bad job.  I did say a lot of people will be hypocrites and complain we let him go when he has success.  In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if your end up being one of them.

I have to admit, m0nkey was annoying when he first got here. But I have grown to enjoy his sarcasm recently.

[sneaky_flute]

Trout for sure

[NJHalo]

Mike Scioscia will thrive as Mets manager

I have been on Scioscia's case long before this board was a twinkle in Chuck's imagination.

I will take myself out behind the barn ( and I have a big one) long before I lament Scioscia's departure.
