  1. We are officially the laughing stock of sports. You have to trade Trout at this point, I hope he asks out. just can’t keep going down this road
  2. A fringe to bad player that has hung around, yes. He’s fine but not sure id be bummed about my favorite team not getting him lol
  3. Not sure why anyone thinks Austin Hedges is any good. He’s a worse Jeff Mathis. Look at his stats, holy shit they’re bad
  4. Pretty high on Detmers and Silseth personally. Think I’d pass here detmers reminds me of Blake Snell a bit
  5. That Bautista guy in Baltimore has a .98 ERA and is striking out 2 batters per inning. No one’s been close to better than him this season
  6. Have to get a reliever that’s reliable. There’s considerable upside in the Angels bullpen right now but they need someone proven who is having a good year
  7. Need 17 in August and Sept to make a run at it lets do it
  8. This is an extremely potent offense when healthy. It’s too bad about Ward but even without him this should be a team that’s good for 5-6 runs per game
  9. Nothing puzzling about trading Quero. He’s blocked by OHoppe and the Angels can find a serviceable backup in free agency or through the system with a guy like Thaiss. I don’t see that as some major loss at all
  10. We are definitely going to be left holding the bag if we miss. They have to get in and they have maybe a 10-15% chance at getting as things currently stand. I’m actually very bullish that they CAN make it. But I would not bet on it. Gonna need some luck for once
  11. Escobar is completely washed IMO. Not a major league player at this point. I think he’ll be the odd man out in a couple weeks
  12. I understand that we are in deep going for this thing, but this just doesn’t appear to be a sound decision to make when you’re 3-4 games out in August basically. this is the move you make when you’re tied for a playoff spot or have a lead its risky business. Sure hope it works. Might as well push the chips in completely now. Go get the top reliever on the market.
  13. I said this in the offseason and kind of got laughed at by some, but this team ignored the offense too much to be successful. The Valazquez’ and Wade’s of the world can’t be in the lineup as starters if you want to win. Run prevention matters but so does run creation, and we absolutely have sucked at that. Time to swing a trade for a SS and real left fielder. Backup catcher is a must too. Trout/Ohtani/Rendon/Stassi/ward are the only guys on the roster right now that should be seen as everyday guys next season ImO. Everyone else needs to be re-evaluated. Guys like Rengifo and Fletcher are useful in the proper role. I don’t know about Adell and Walsh at this point i don’t feel like the pitching is far off at all. They’ve got some real talent there for the first time in a long long time. It’s just a shame they have a bunch of hacks at the plate now
  14. Fletcher is a 2-3 WAR player in my opinion. Good enough to start but preferably a utility guy on a team with playoff aspirations we have much bigger problems than him
  15. They don’t have the money to sign a Story or a Correa. the bigger failure and disappointment is the inability to draft and develop middle infielders. Fletcher is the best MIF they’ve developed since Kendrick and Aybar. That’s laughable trading Segura definitely stings but they just have to find better guys through the draft
