  1. Agreed. Bizarre to be playing for a single run, down 3 with no outs, and 2 guys on.
  2. I'm glad that having 5 days off and only playing two games in the three days before that left this team well-rested, focused, and ready to kick ass in the second half!
  3. What, you don't like Wallach's 0 for 30 slump? What kind of fan are you?!
  4. I think Rengifo is a strong candidate to get non-tendered in the off-season--assuming he makes it through this season on the roster.
  5. I don't know that it's either one. I get the impression that he's just a weird, awkward guy when it comes to dealing with the media.
  6. It's not that bad. I understand what you meant. In theory, it could impact the next few years of the team as it relates to "the Ohtani decision".
  7. At this point, I'm borderline ok trading Ohtani to anyone who will take Rendon's contract. I don't even want anything back. Mets are probably the only team that would even consider that, so it's too bad they're out of it this year.
  8. He's played more OF than 1B over the course of his minor league career--though from what I've read, he's not particularly great defensively at any position.
  9. That's pretty much how I'm looking at it. To me, the worst-case scenario would be doing just well enough to carry on the illusion of a real shot at the playoffs. If that happens, Minasian probably ends up doing nothing or even trading prospects to get veterans on expiring contracts, then missing the playoffs, not signing Ohtani, and getting a compensation pick in the 65-80 range. I either want a huge winning streak or a complete collapse.
  10. Seems kinda random that he'd get the highest NDFA bonus. Turns 23 in a few weeks and didn't seem to have crazy numbers until this season. Angels are definitely making moves that go against the so-called "experts" and pre-draft rankers. That's fine, of course, as the Angels SHOULD know more than them...Just hope some of these dudes pan out.
  11. That is definitely a dream world, given that Trout's out for at least another three weeks, maybe more like 5-6.
