Nope, had he broke his foot on the ball hit back at him, that would have been worse.

Regardless of how you feel about Thaiss, that wasn't on the catcher.

"Dad, they have an amazing business program" vs the reality....... Good Luck to your kid. If one has a chance to "go away" for school, they absolutely should.

And Efflin was never an option. He said that he was heartbroken when the Rays didnt draft him. Its where he wanted to be, he wasnt coming to the west coast for that same money.

Yes, lets bank on a guy who has zero experience in this role. Only time in current position to learn, he is learning from a guy some of you think is not a capable gm. No doubt he would be the best option.

He pitched before the home run by Trout. I am interested to see if Wash is all bark or if he will stand by his words. We will see in the next couple weeks.

Perry is the first GM in awhile that seems focused on building the farm back to where it must be to compete. I can agree or disagree with the points of the OP but the underlying truth is, this is what happens when you aren't consistently developing talent. The GM is forced to make moves that he may not even be the biggest fan of but still makes it due to immediate need with zero internal options. Lastly, when one says things like, "failed frontline starters" and then mention guys who no GM would consider frontline starters or places Ohtani leaving on the GM when the world knows that wasn't on the GM or complains about extensions that didn't impact the organizations ability to spend or states that a falling out with a manager that couldn't find another job in baseball is a big deal, it kind of negates other viewpoints that may indeed be accurate.

I truly hope that wouldn't be how our manager picked his lineup.

You pissed off the wrong ex-angel.

He is actually forward thinking and knew us fans would use them as flags.

Did you tell them they went to air dryers in the bathrooms?

Like we have had young players to put on a pedestal lately. Also, all teams and their fans do this, the Angels aren't "special" in this regard.

Guess you hadnt had enough beer yet but in the future Arte expects you to get creative.....

You buy your tickets through the Angels?

I didn't get food so I can't speak on that side of the concessions. Lines seemed long and normal for an opening day from what I saw. Beer selection throughout the stadium still lacked quality draft craft beer. I would like to see better support of the local Anaheim/Orange breweries. San Diego does this with wheeled carts where they have about 6 to 8 local breweries pouring side by side. Most tap out early, that's fine! I utilized the markets since the draft wasn't great. Local cans were limited to Brewery X Halo Light and their IPA. For stadium beers, not terrible just lacks "diversity" and the same as last year overall. The Halos can do much better with supporting their local business and creating those partnerships. My 8-year-old will rave about the Chocolate Chip cookie bucket. It's the kid's version of Helmet Nachos.

Nobody said they couldn't. The amount it would take may make a new stadium an easier option at the end of the day. The Dodgers really don't have an option to build a new one unless they moved downtown etc. Thats much more difficult for them it would seem.

Dodger stadium has had much more extensive renovations. Walk the two and they are night and day. Angel Stadium is okay but should okay be good enough? Its showing its years at this point and you aren't seeing all the underlying issues and restrictions that a 50 plus year old stadium has.

4.5 should do it.

Sad thing is, they both will have one before the Angels. It won't be long before Angel Stadium starts looking like the Coliseum.
