I think the Angels have the capability to leapfrog these teams because of the wherewithal in the organization. We have an organizational problem which I think is better than a money problem.
Based on the poll, no wonder there's always doom and gloom here! I picked the third option. I think the Angels always have a chance. I think we have pretty good talent and an owner willing to spend. We just need better planning.
Not immediately, but those trades were based on the current team. We potentially got a stud catcher, a pitcher and saved some money. 2022 is shot. These moves were for the future.
Will he be an impact player? I think he may be a good player, but the catcher we received can be a star. And like someone said, it's easier to pick up an outfielder.
I remember someone doing something like this before and the poll went the same way. Most are Angels fans who want another ring, knowing Trout like all the other HOFers will go the way of the dodo.
