What I hope does not happen, is that it takes Cole forever to decide who he is going to sign with. That would mess everything up. I also believe if Cole signs early with the Angels, plus having Maddon, more good players will want to sign and get onboard.
R.I.P. Skaggs, you left us way too soon. My prayers go out to your family, friends, teammates, and all of us Angels fans that are going through this again with our beloved team.
Dipoto is all about the now, he is depleting the Mariners farm like he did ours. It will back fire for him again, because there is no way the Mariners beat the Astros, Yankees or Redsox in a playoff series. but that being said he is not a stupid man and knows how much it would mean for the fans up in Seattle to just get to the playoffs again, so he will ride that wave for now.
yes, I totally agree, no heart with this team, I live in Seattle, and I will watch some of the Mariners games, and the difference in the energy level and the drive between the two teams is night and day. So disappointed
I am a major Angels fan and I hate seeing them lose, but with the way the Yankees and Redsox are playing this year, I don't think it would matter how we finish. This Is a good chance for us to bring up some prospects and get a taste of what they can do, I believe we are a few good pieces away from being really good, well maybe an overhaul of the bullpen too.
