It's about time the Angels received some praise 

I honestly feel as an Angels fan, we never get this much positive news in one week! This just seems so unreal to me. I literally ran out of the beer store(Canada) and jumped in my car and started cheering insanely loud. Everyone around was looking at me, but it was so worth it

I

I'm so Insanely stoked for this! I absolutely can't wait to see him play 

F Dipoto!! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! 

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!! 

I think moves are currently in place for the 7 teams in the Ohtani finale, but everything hinges on the possibility of having him in the rotation. I bet if we sign him, we'll move an SP  

I'd really like to see Cozart pan out, if his legs can hold up

I’d look at Matt Adams and Jace Peterson....

Matt Adams 100% depending on what he's looking for in terms of a deal. I think he'd be decent from the left side for us 

Is there a decent size Japanese population in the Anaheim area? My grandmother is Japanese and wouldn't move anywhere where there wasn't other Japanese people around.

Baseball is hard when you're 45

I think a Cozart pick up, if he were to play 2nd or 3b would be amazing!

Used to see a ton of Letterkenny commercials but have never bothered to watch, any good?

the first 2 seasons are hilarious, but the 3rd season is atrocious 

Sick! I'm extremely excited about this!

Calzone, the Expos are a dead franchise and it's not the Angels fault. It's because no one in Canada gave a shit about them. Get over it.

Living very close to Toronto, no one gives a shit about the Expos outside of Quebec for the 3 days the Jays are there. Toronto fans are insanely fickle to begin with, but Expos fans are even worse. They get their few games before the season begins, and then boom they're gone. They bitch and complain about how they need a team and how they would have won in 94 blah blah blah.

Phillips isn't good enough for this thing to drag on like this. Time to wrap this thing up and either announce a deal or not

This is exactly right! 

I'm insanely happy about this move. Doesn't handcuff and could really pay off! Let's hope everything fires in unison from now on in!

Are we taking on his money also ? Because if so I think this is crazy.  I don't get why we can't just be happy to see how far THIS team will go. Even if we do add Verlander, does that realistically put us ahead of Boston or Cleavland ? Even Houston with all their problems ? I mean it would be great but I wouldn't bet on this group + Verlander in a 7 game series against any of those teams. 

Jesus be patient.  Thaiss and Barraia are both decent assets.  We need to save our bullets.  Justin Verlander is not the missing piece that is gonna send this team to the World Series.  Think about what his 28 million dollar a year contract is gonna do to this teams ability to acquire assets through 2021.  Disaster.   Barria may well be a better pitcher at some point during those years. 

This is the exact mindset angels fans need going forward. We spent tons on fa players, just to come back and burn us. We need to keep developing like we used to in the 90s and 2000s. It's the only way we'll make it back to the ws again. We can't go trading away picks or minor leagues(possible) gems to have old guys owned a ton of money.

Nolasco for Stanton 

That's the deal to get it done! Make the move Eppler!

I'm kind of surprised he didn't pitch in the 7th.  

Same, but my guess is they want to keep his innings low no matter what 

I just feel when I see Escobar play, he seems like such a cancer on the field. He always seems to be mouthing off or has something to say about something. I get it he can hit , but we have options and yes Valbuena has been awful, but maybe he turns it around? We have nothing to lose
