TroutField

Doesn't every message bored have guys who think they are and expert and don't even bother to do the homework before talking? I know I'm guilty of that, that's why I like this site there is always someone to step in with some cool stat or argument to see a different perspective

It was inevitable. It felt like we lost game 2 and 3 before they even started.

Good thing we didn't blow Newcomb, Heaney, and Ellis on a team that has no chance of beating out the Astros

The MLB is in major need of a cap. It's not fair that they put in a "kind of" salary cap unless you don't give a damn about money like the Dodgers, it does no good. They can get good players just by eating other teams bad contracts.

The Phillies don't need an ace they are in a severe rebuild. Do you even follow baseball? A lot of the stuff you say on here makes me shake my head.

Wouldn't he want to close somewhere? That's where the money is for relievers

As much as I want Cespedes I'm glad the FO isn't making dumb trades like the jays

It was probably just a tweet somebody forgot to send before we got Victorino.

Damn I wouldn't even care what we gave up for him as long as we got to keep one of Heaney or Newcomb. Imagine trout and arenado together

Ugh oh. If Trout is hurt and can't be himself we should just stay pat with what we have and try next year. No way we get anywhere in October as a wild card, no way we win the division with the Astros loading up and about to get Springer back.

We got arenado and Blackmon for Joyce, Rucinski, and shoemaker.

Yeah no way I include Newcomb for that headcase. If they want Ellis, shoemaker, and a bullpen arm I'd be okay with that

Don't remember the weed part. I remember him saying he plays Xbox with kaz all the time, they were close friends and Kaz was going to drop the hammer down. Of course we all knew how that went

It seems the Angels aren't down to do something stupid and ruin the future for a stop gap this year which is great. I mean we are pretty set up pitching wise for the next few years and we can piece together a pretty decent lineup with trout, calhoun, pujols, and cron. If we can get a good controlled bat for a decent price then do it, if not hold onto your bullets and get something good in the offseason when the price isn't high.

That's the thing they built the extreme depth we have because young cost controlled pitching is currency now a days. We have the depth to trade 1 major league arm and a prospect or 2 not named Newcomb or Heaney. (And preferably not Ellis unless it's a good young bat coming back)

If Aaron hicks could be had that's the type of player you blow your prospects on. That's exactly the player we need to be favorites along with the Royals. Speedy guy with OBP and doubles power, former first rounder. Just coming into his own in the big leagues.

That's just asking for an injury.
