Angels and Orioles are the only two teams with neither tv or radio guys traveling on the road with the team.
The Dodgers and Nats also not traveling.

I really hope that Ohtani is back in the lineup tomorrow based on his short outing. This doesn't necessarily qualify as a heavy work load today.
Question, based on 30 pitches, do you make him wait 5-6 days or get him back on the mound in 3-4 days?

We've gone through this before. I don't want any problems watching tv, I dvr everything, and I don't want any damn drops that I always read about with subscription services.
I pay $1,200 a year to watch through my satellite with 300 channels. I make enough money, I'm not fucking around with splitting subscriptions with my aunt, getting vpn subscriptions, and all the other hoops that 'subscriber guy' has to jump through.
You might want to look into Tvision (TMobile) tons of channels, $90/mo for TMobile customers. Total pkg (TV, DVR) $130.00 This is a streaming service

Whitey Hurzog had the best idea (IMO) when the DH was first proposed. Allow a PH for the starting pitcher one time throughout the game. After using the PH, starting pitcher bats for himself.

he was born with it but it can cause pain and that's why he's having the surgery. I was mostly being sarcastic though.
Wondering why this wasn't dealt with when he was playing in Japan??

Just remember there are Rules of Behavior at Angel Stadium. #1 Rule, under no circumstances are you to stand and cheer until the bottom of the 9th inning when there are 2 outs and 2 strikes on the opposing batter. That means when Trout/Calhoun/Ohtani,etc... comes to the plate late in the game with bases loaded and down by 1-3 runs, you are to remain in your seat! If you do get caught up the moment and stand up to cheer madly, an Usher will come down and kindly remind to stay seated so as not to impact the fan's experience seated behind you. DAHIKT

The Angels, as I understand it, are getting compensated pretty well by MLB for giving up these two home games, probably to the point that that it’s more profitable than playing in Anaheim.
The players also get a paid extra - don’t know how much but my understanding is it’s a significant amount - for playing these games.
But the Angel season ticket fans were charged for these 2 games. Were told not their (Angels) fault. MLB in charge of these games.

Smart move...hopefully through negotiations, Arte can finally get "of Anaheim" off the name.
FYI , “of Anaheim “ no longer exists. They are now officially the Los Angeles Angels.
-
Back in 2016, Arte was all set to build new stadium on NW corner of the Tustin Air Base. Environmental permits were quickly approved and all that needed was investors to build/develop the surrounding property. Unfortunately, investors were not found so in 2017, Arte gave up and signed an extended lease with Anaheim (2029?) He has big plans for developing the parking lot but the city wants to see some improvements to the stadium. First he replaced all lights with LED lights (2017).Last year, he upgraded the sound system and video screens.

Mark your calendar, April 12, 13, 14.
Will be on the cool side and there will be no ivy on the wall. Still.... it's Wrigley!

They'll announce they're parting ways with him the day after the season ends.
Don't think he'll full on retire, but I could see him moving into a more part time advisory type role. Guy has been in professional baseball for 40 years straight, immediately after his playing career he began coaching. Probably time for a break
I think MS will announce he is not returning when they are mathematically eliminated. JMO

Notice that Trout is no where to be found in the dugout? Not in any of the HR dugout celebrations.

First name that comes to mind as a glaring omission (besides Tanana): Doug DeCinces. 5 years, 18 WAR, played a leading role on both ALCS teams in the 80's.
I'm sure he will be considered after he gets out of jail for inside trading.

At the very least can they bring the gold back to the halo
The gold halo was featured on the 2014 50th anniversary hat. Took MLB 3 weeks to sign off on replacing the silver halo with a gold halo for a single season. Unbelieveable!!.

The new video boards are desperately needed. Great to hear that news.
While working the Bud Kuhl Invitational at the stadium this past weekend, I was able to confirm the score board upgrade.The RF scoreboard will remain the same size however, the video screen will be enlarged by about 50%. The entire LF scoreboard will be enlarged and will be one big video screen. All video screens will be HD, just like up the road. In addition, the entire sound system is also being replaced/upgraded.
As for intrastructure, the only thing I noticed was the resturarnt formally known as the Knot Hole (Club Level), is being completely rebuilt. No idea what it will be. Heard rumors of a self serve cafeteria (???).

I think the worst part is that Arte will keep the Angels in that stadium through 2029. They have a long to-do list.
1. Get rid of the homeless in that area.
2. Develop the area surrounding the stadium.
3. Rip out the rock pile and half the seats in the upper seats in RF and LF and put in some OC or So-Cal specific decor.
4. Update the playing field itself. Move the bullpen under ground and shorten the gap in left center, push the fence and scoreboard out 15 feet in RF and right center.
5. Rip out and update the plumbing and bathrooms.
6. Bring in better concessions (it's a lot better than it was 5 years ago).
7. Give the exterior portion of the stadium a facelift. Just cosmetic.
8. State of the art updates everywhere.
I have heard Arte got approval from Anaheim, when he re-negoiated the new lease, to construct 3 parking structures surrounding the stadium. Then develope the perimeter of the stadium (where the parking lot meets the curb) with shops and restrurants. However before upgrading the outside he has to spend $$$ on the intrastructure.
-
Just found out both scoreboards and Big A km,getting major upgrades. In fact, work has already begun! Video ribbon surrounding right/left field also being upgraded. Can't wait t see it next season.

Looks like I am going to have my section (307) all to myself this weekend.

OH NO!! A 3-game series with the Doyers on Fri - Sat - Sun in July.
-
Been watching the LLWS and of the 9 teams that have played so far, only 1 player (from Canada) stated that Mike Trout was his favorite player. Oh by the way, the team from Rancho Santa Maragrita gave MT no love at all!! The player who got the most love from RSM..... Jeter.
-
While working crowd control in the on field seat section (3B side) MT shows up to sign stuff (does this most all home games). As he passed by me and had to ask him, "You gotta know what this means to the kids." He replied (without looking up), " Yeah I do and it's cool to do it."

When the relief pitcher arrives to the mount in the middle of the inning, pat him on the butt and put ball back in play. No 8 warm up pitches.He just threw +20 warm up pitches in the bullpen!
Could This Be True?!
