krAbs reacted to Tank in After recently having lunch with Arte Moreno, Scott Boras says Moreno is committed to improving the Angels
1. I can confirm that lunch did indeed take place last week between Arte and Boras.
b. I’m not going to kiss and tell (but the Chile rellano was outstanding and no one present hurt their pitching arm during our meal).
3. Arte paid for lunch this time.
d. There’s a gag order in place for the time being.

Trout, Adell and Marsh represent our future All Star outfield. They each have five letters in their last names, as in 5 tool players. Let's show a little patience here. There are better avenues to success than moving Marsh.

krAbs reacted to UndertheHalo in The Angels organization in 2019. You hate to see it.
I thought I’d make the syntax be about as good as the Angels were. In meme form I’d say about this.

krAbs reacted to meat in Batter in AFL gets thrown out after robo call called strike
Just because a pitch is so filthy that it fools an umpire and is difficult for a catcher to frame doesn't mean it's not a strike. Bring on the robots and take the subjectivity out of umpiring.

These are professional hitters, so they should be able to adjust.
Then again, they don't seem to be able to adjust to the shift ...

krAbs got a reaction from UndertheHalo in Joe Maddon and LA Angels agree to three-year deal to become next manager
The top reply to the /r/baseball reddit thread on it is a joke:
"Update: Mike Trout now bats 9th"
"And left-handed because that decreases your time to 1st base"
Obviously a joke, but the point is, Maddon likes to play as hard as he can to statistics and to what spreadsheets say. I believe he was the first manager to heavily employ the shift, for example. Often it works out, and especially often it works out over a large enough sample size. But when he does something that goes against baseball "common sense" and it doesn't work out...That's the kind of thing that pisses a fan off.
Edit - don't get me wrong, I'm SUPER excited about him, and I think he's the guy who can lead us to the next level. But, he seems like the kind of guy who makes choices that really rub a certain kind of fan the wrong way, and I think we have a lot of that certain kind of fan here. I expect a lot of head-scratching bullpen choices that will lead to a lot of "Fire Joe!" threads.
