GrittyVeterans got a reaction from tomsred in Ohtani has cleared out his locker
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

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

Pretty high on Detmers and Silseth personally. Think I’d pass here
detmers reminds me of Blake Snell a bit

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

This would be a really bad trade for the Angels. Definitely hope this doesn’t happen

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

GrittyVeterans reacted to nando714 in Gameday Thread: (7/31/23 4:20 Pacific) Angels @ Braves: Silseth on the mound, Neto back, Cron & Grichuk playing
He’s never really been a part of this team.
the further he stays away from the club the better

GrittyVeterans got a reaction from ten ocho recon scout in Angels acquire Randal Grichuk and CJ Cron for Jake Madden and Mason Albright (option Cabbage, DFA Padlo, place Ward on 60-day IL)
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

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

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

GrittyVeterans got a reaction from ArkyAngelsFan in The Official Los Angeles Angels Minor League Stats, Reports & Scouting Thread
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

GrittyVeterans got a reaction from Angel Oracle in David Fletcher
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

GrittyVeterans got a reaction from ten ocho recon scout in Go all in - gut the farm and pay Ohtani.
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

GrittyVeterans reacted to floplag in Details on why Shohei Ohtani was not traded
If this is true, im legit pissed.
He thinks people will pay to watch a couple good guys with a bunch of minor leaguers night after night? I wont buy crap in terms of ticket,.s merch, nothing if this is even remotely true.
He basically tanked he clubs future for short term revenue.
What a disgrace.

GrittyVeterans reacted to HeavenlyHalos in Gameday Thread (6/14/22): Angels @ Dodgers - Ward back and leading off
We are the joke franchise of the Majors. Haven't made the playoffs in approaching a decade and only once with the best player of his generation. Couple that best player of his generation with another MVP phenom and we still can't even produce a winning record.
Franchise is a mess and I blame Arte.
