    ukyah got a reaction from Pancake Bear in OC Register: Angels PR official who reportedly supplied Tyler Skaggs with drugs explains why he cooperated with DEA   
    they're not allowed to be identified per mlb. something most don't know is that the mlb drug policy is treatment oriented. if an employee covered under that contract is a drug user, they are enrolled in an mlb treatment program. they are not punished and will not be punished as long as they are an active participant in their recovery, regardless of relapses. the only time they will be subject to any kind of penalty is if they stop attending/participating in the recovery program.
    this is one of the rare scenarios where there won't be a leak. if those names come out, somebody's in a lot of trouble.

    Also, i didnt mention it before. But this played a huge role in the collapse in the 2cd half. This thing has been known to the club for months. Like a huge black cloud.

    i'll answer this way, which will capture the angel plans and many of their fans, if not you. the AFL is the last proving ground for a big time prospect before the majors. there is no higher test. adell and marsh are killing the AFL this year, and marsh is outperforming adell head to head. it's well known that the angels are planning on adell for 2020 in right field. so, the question is if adell is ready, then why isn't marsh?

    96 mil .vs 72 mil.   One guy falls off he's a 30+ mil RP..    

    Price threw 105 innings last year, only threw 74 innings in 2017 -- he's due money through his age 36 season.   Upton's deal is over by the time he reaches Price's current age.
    This seems like an awful lot of risk for a team that really can't get something wrong moving forward.

    how do your two statements coexist? how can the league heavily punish the angels if there's no proof that there was a systemic responsibility? i'm not going to get caught up in the emotions of this story, but i can tell you as a person that has raised an opiod addict, it certainly wasn't my fault. people make choices and the grip of opiod addiction is firm.

    Chances are Cole and everyone else actually in MLB knows more about what goes on behind the scenes than will ever get out.

    I feel bad for him because addiction is a serious thing and I knew the guy, and outside of his addiction that I had no idea about, he was a great guy. A family man. I feel sorry because he's pretty much ruined now. 
    I don't think any of us should judge as we've been guilty of one thing or another in our lifetimes.

    no he didn't.  Friedman left the Rays and then Maddon exercised an option in his contract that stated he could leave if Friedman left.
