    Trout to NYPost on Angels keeping Ohtani: “Ultimately, it’s going to come down if we get to the playoffs”

    LOL...  This is going to be the standard byline until he either signs or leaves. 

    I started accepting an Ohtani-less future two years ago, I said as much here.  I saw/see no point in going all Canadian and repeating it at every turn but I'm genuinely surprised that more people here haven't already moved from believing he will re-sign to expecting him to leave while still hoping something miraculous happens that makes him forget his entire Angels career has been one mired in turmoil.  Constant changes on the field and in the dugout, bad press left and right, and just for shits and giggles ... a couple deaths along the way.  At this point they could win the WS and I can still see him moving on just so he can find a place that isn't in a constant state of flux.   This team has gone from one where stability had become the norm to one where mayhem is the status quo.

    The Angels will have a lot of money to spend, either on Ohtani or his replacements.  Hopefully Arte is still in his unfinished business mode when winter comes.   Thank God the 28th ranked farm system is also showing signs of life.

    Now I’m hearing, not confirmed yet, that if the Halos ate even part of Iglesias’ contract, that there were teams willing to send a solid prospects or two to the Halos.

    Moreno is haggling over being responsible for what?   $25 million?

    If he knew he was selling the team, why worry about that piddling amount?

    Nickels and Dimes Moreno

    I heard the same thing a few days after the deadline.  Arte going to Fuck us on his way out

    Arte knowing he was selling the team and making it known he wasn't going to approve an Ohtani trade is pretty significant. It means he either wants Ohtani on the team for 2023 and to try and create a competitive team while the team is sold. Or, he wants to extend Ohtani and have that as part of the appeal for a new owner. The one thing I think is pretty obvious is that they most likely are not going to trade Ohtani this offseason. 

    And by him not trading him will set this franchise back for many years to come. We will become the laughing stock when Ohtani walks down the 5 freeway and those fuckers win multiple world series with him

    Both of the leagues that you mention have a HARD SALARY CAP! 

    NBA

    1. HARD CAP, No Minor Leagues (other than D-League) which is a Co-opp'ed team of 2 or 3 Pro Teams.

    2. Ballmer had to DROP an entire Culture Change due to DTS and his Slurs...

    3. Though they have been ravaged by injuries. He has dropped the coin and paid to go over the HARD CAP when needed. To keep the team competitive. 

    4. He has built a training center and rebranded the team logos and uniforms. To get away from the DTS stink. 

    5. Surrounds himself with very good Front Office People like Jerry West, Michael Winger, Trent Redden.

    NHL

    1. Samueli's NEVER come CLOSE to going over the HARD CAP.

    2. They have moved players and haven't really developed any true scorers since Getzlaf & Perry. Maybe Zegras maybe not? 

    3. There is only a AAA affiliate so there isn't a true amount of Development as players are drafted and need to work on a little of actual game and have the ability or are Young and just an extra season or two is enough to move up or are in a transition from the Euro-game or adjust to the living distance in the USA.

    4. They have moved contracts during down years previously. And currently are in a full REBUILD. As you stated may/may not be effective?

     

    I don't really see a downfall from either. Overall, both look like they want to WIN! The Samueli's probably wait a little longer than most as the Windows Close... 

    Also Don't forget him Building the The Clippers own Arena in Inglewood
