  1. Machado likely ends up as a 1B in 3 years. I would definitely shy away from locking him up to a 8-10 year deal at $30 mill a year (likely market price).
  2. Tanaka has pitched with a similar injury for years. Attacking the medical staff here without details is such an Internet thing to do. Ideally this forces the Angels hand to dump TheAlbertross, freeing up DH for Ohtani next year.
  3. Time to suck harder for more draft $. Lose to win!
  4. If Scioscia is out after this year I could see the new regime work with the FO and ask Lozano to check around baseball to see if anybody would have interest in Albert if he were DFAed. If Scioscia leaves the club I would be shocked if TheAlbertross was on a MLB roster entering 2020. Shocked.
  5. I like the concept of signing Marwin Gonzalez... obviously depends on price. I’d be rather surprised if Matheny got another managerial gig. Very surprised. Machado likely lands the biggest deal in MLB history this fall. 10 years/$280 million may be the starting point. Phillies have the need and financial resources to go higher.
  6. You avoid surgery if at all possible. TJ doesn’t have a 100% success rate. the Angels and Ohtani are absolutely playing this the right way.
  7. We don't have a top 10 prospect the Mets would require to head line a package. They are looking for a 80 grade prospect + others in a return.
  8. Pretty sure I'm going to need to see a "long-form" birth certificate of believe that is his real name. Just saying. This is a conspiracy actually worth Arpaio's time.
  9. How dare you forget to mention the great, 45-year-old Bartolo Colon.
  10. Tigers were shedding payroll under new ownership. Given the NY media the Wilpons would need a legit haul t move Degrom.
  11. This sucks. Time to start preparing for the EPL. Go Spurs!
  12. It seems like Arte has largely stayed out of baseball decisions since landing the Albertross and Hamilton. Good.
  13. Calhoun was a B prospect when he was moved? Wow, you sure are an incredibly strict grader. Sickels has him as a B+/A- entering this year.
  14. If the Mariners win 93+ games this year DiPoto likely deserves the honor of Executive of the Year.
  15. If Richards was healthy through mid July with a 3.21 ERA we could have landed more than a B prospect. Especially if the SP Market is thin this summer.
  16. Apparently it was a hamstring issue today. Not an arm issue. Maybe he did talk to the Angels about an extension and decided it was better to wait out till free agency?
  17. You absolutely should not trade any prospects for players that would not be in the team’s 2019 plans.
  18. Exactly. I was against it at the time. Man, was I blasted by the community then. That said, I did like the Hamilton signing. Sigh.
  19. This. That plus kids know the harder they throw the more $ they will receive when drafted. Radar guns were rarely used until the 1980s.
  20. Proof the Angels have more TJ surgeries of impact players than most other teams? could also be a result of the team taking more risk with draft prospects to make up for a lackluster system the past 7 years or so.
  21. Ohtani won’t be moved to the bullpen unless he asks to be moved. I highly, highly doubt this will ever happen. the Angels must stick to the plan and keep him as a starter. He’s far more valuable as a starter.
  22. Keith Law talked about Adams on the Baseball Today podcast this am.
