    kino got a reaction from Anthony Tendon in Moreno Family Exploring Sale of the Los Angeles Angels   
    Lacob is also a self-proclaimed Angels fan, grew up in Anaheim and graduated from Katella High. According to an OCR article he also sold peanuts as games to be able to watch the Angels growing up. I'm not holding my breath but seeing how the Warriors have been run definitely make me hope Lacob is still an Angels fan and interested in buying the team.

    Nice! So if they are playing well we can trade them to Irvine for some nice prospects at the deadline. Another low risk high reward move by eppler

    Are there any updates on Nate Smith? It’s approaching one year since he underwent surgery. Julio Urias underwent the same surgery and it took a year and change until he was able to make a rehab appearance and even then Urias has looked like a shell of his former self which from some cursory research appears to be the norm for this kind of surgery.

    Its a good feeling to look at a top 30 prospects list for the Angels and feel something other than abject sadness.

    kino got a reaction from Angel Oracle in David Price   
    I think one of the interesting things to watch if Price gets TJ is if he opts into his contract after 2018 and the Sox are on the hook for 4 seasons of 30mil+ on a pitcher coming back from TJ. Would this cause teams to stop offering these massive contracts with early year opt outs banking on said player opting out. I assume this wouldn't really affect things, but maybe this locks out smaller market clubs from reeling in big FAs, not that small market clubs were truly big players in FA anyway.

    kino reacted to mtangelsfan in Props 47 & 57 and Gov Brown   
    Let me actually try to tackle this.  It is not fair to blame a law or voters for the actions of a person.  There are many factors at work here.  Now, regarding the law.  California is in a difficult position with overcrowded jails and a gigantic budget deficit.  I get why they are trying to thin the population of prisons.  
    However, why don't we talk about all of the inmates whose crimes are drug related.  It would seem prudent to me to let out non violent offenders early and exhaust that completely before releasing violent offenders.

    Big outfield,  so cal, low fan expectations,  no DH = perfect spot for dream weaver. Im hoping he increases the velocity back to 86- 87 and has some moderate success.

    Wish nothing but the best for CJ, hope he does well. I'm not bitter, yes he didn't perform to his contract, but there were also some really good times. Good luck CJ, hope you get some checkered flags in your future.

    Mark today on your calendar as the day you apparently had a seizure while typing a response on this board.
    Also, we're sending you to Australia as part of Obama's deal. It's still a prison colony, right? That would be suitable for this offense.

    Man, listen to yourself.  What makes you think that any public money is being spent.  What makes you think that any american is losing out on anything because of something like this ?  Who cares if she comes here for a surgery.  Theres no evidence that they'd be staying.  Do you seriously begrudge a toddler medical treatment because she's a foreigner ?  seriously this is a new one for me.  Apparently people coming here for life saving surgery is now an unbearable burden.

    Political correctness in this instance has nothing to do with this, it has every thing to do with humiliating people and getting your jollies at someone else's expense!
    Bitching about "political correctness" is just rhetoric for people that have a need to use offensive language or actions.
