Lol, what does that have to do with anything?  I live in Eagle Rock, not in Orange County, but I'm still an Angels fan.

My bad i thought you lived elsewhere.   

I can get away from it.  We must run in different circles 

It's interesting.

I have zero problems with this.  I think it's stupid that Arte potentially blocked a trade of Ohtani, but I don't have an issue with him not going up to the $700M offer.  Still think the Angels are better off without him, and don't give a shit that he went to the Dodgers. 

Well, yeah, where do you live?

Not surprised. Arte wanted to sell the team then had a change of heart.  If he wants to selll in the near future addling the that contract might be a problem 

Mo Vaughn, Pujols, and Vlad

Good.

That'll change soon ish. Probably before 6am.

No.

That logo should be banned.

Oh, gee, who are the winners and losers. I'm on the edge of my toilet

I wonder if Ohtani had come to the Angels and said he would defer $68 Million of a $70 million contract for the next ten years how the Angels organization would have reacted?  Obviously Ohtani was hell bent to go to the Dodgers.  Let's face it, this organization screwed up royally over the past six years even though I think their intentions were good.  We have to change, big time.  At this point, I hope we have great contributions from the entire team, I am tired of focusing on a few star players who take up a lot of salary.  I am somewhat optimistic that Washington can wring out the best in our 40 man team however it ends up.

Ohtani would've deferred $69 million to send the radio team on the road and get another iPad. 

I'm glad people like Ron Washington.  I don't know how many wins that adds. I'm guessing close to zero.

Good post agree on most of it. Except the part about the city connect uniforms which I’m not a fan of (I’m most likely in the minority in that regard).  

Correct

Just defer every one!!! And build a Fantasy Baseball team! Even through trades Restructure every contract... and defer $$$$

It's unrealistic. Ohtani is the only player that can feasibly do this considering his endorsements.  Even if others could, most wouldn't.

You are addicted to disappointment.

The bigger question is the quality of what they will add. Their recent track record of that is not the best. 

Both are big question marks.

I just hope interest picks up on his debut ticket, mine gets graded a 9+, and I don't get raped by seller fees when I sell.

Also, I hope the Dodgers suck, but that's not gonna happen

They probably don’t totally understand, they are Dodgers fans after all

I'm not over it. It's annoying. 

Any other team... a contract that wasn't ridiculous... no big deal.  Understandable.   Still Understandable 

How do non Dodgers players feel about the deferrals?  Anyone chime in?

Lots of potential for internal improvement and you know they'll add...

No.

What are they gonna say that will make fans feel better anyway?

The name is never going to be changed back to California or Anaheim 

Amazing that is a top priority for some.
