Sign Harper and package Adell for an ace. There I said it

I don’t get why people are so down on Cozart, you guys realize he was arguably the best hitter they had at the beginning of the season.

I just looked it up. Bryce Harper’s OPS+ for the last three years is 18th in the majors.

His value, and the reason he’ll go so much money is that he’s so young, so you can lock in a bunch of good to very good seasons.
However, he is not a great player who is going to make your team all that much better the day you sign him.
Thats why I don’t think the Angels would sign him. They’d use up all their money and not be that much better.
Obviously swapping Bryce Harper for Kole Calhoun and getting even a bad Harper year is a big improvement, but if they can’t address the pitching or their other holes, they’ve just gone from 80 to 84-85 wins, or something like that.
Going off on a tangent here....
Unless you can have a $300M payroll you need some surplus value to be a good team (guys who play much better than their salary). Premium free agents never offer you surplus value because you’re usually paying for their best-case scenario season, and often (although not as much in Harper’s case) when they’re at an age that you aren’t getting that any more.
So the ideal is to have most of your guys be young and homegrown (tons of surplus value) and then only pay the premium for a top FA if he’s the cherry on top to make you a WS caliber team.

Does anybody know why I can’t order a customized authentic home white jersey on mlb shop? It only gives you the option to customize the red or road grey.

When will this bs of sitting one of your best hitters against a lefty stop?

I’m not angry nor am I talking about you. If you bitch about the attendance of a game you’re at, to me that’s perfectly fine. If you are local and sit on your couch and bitch about the attendance then you should probably shut up.

Funny how people get angry when they’re told their truths

Angel fans at there finest. We literally have the worst fans in all of MLB, I was at the game last Friday and once again, the opposing teams fans out numbered, out cheered etc. It’s embarrassing, in our own ballpark.
-
I've noticed more teams have made the move to use matt finished helmets, wondering if the Angels will switch from the gloss finished helmets...?
-
LOL @ Crons defense

Scioscia really does have a man crush on Perez, give Bandy some playing time dammit
-
And that's why this team sucks balls...-_-

Jett Bandy! Mark my words this kid will take over the starting job. This kid can play!
-
We will have been swept by arguably the worst teams in their respective league. (Minnesota) hooray!
-
I hate him. No way in hell that human trash will ever be an Angel. The thought of him playing on my team makes me want to vomit.
Sorry I missed the note when you bought the team and became owner....
-
Perfect fit, who knows at this point..it could be a salary dump and a mid to low level prospect..we all know his past and what not, but the dude can still rake and has been "clean" as of late
Congrats, Dodgers
