Hubs reacted to mmc in Feinsand: Angels are “very interested” in Blake Snell
That's a lot of moving parts to end up with an 80 win team at best

An outfielder, an infielder, another starter and about 3 relievers…

I disagree, they need to get a TOR arm, and a MVP Caliber hitter. They will not rebuild while Arte owns the team, they are retooling each year and expect to compete.

Agree with this, and it seems to show that Perry has learned something since the Maddon fiasco. Analytics is a tool only, one of several, not the end all be all.

Spotrac has a $150M projection as the roster sits today. If you think the Angels get Snell for what Nola got or a bit more, that's $26M say, and Ohtani costs $45M That puts them at $221M. They wont have much left to upgrade other positions.

I disagree, they absolutely can afford both.

That is not true. He's got value, but not much. Pitching needy teams that think he can be fixed may pay 1/2 to 2/3 of his contract.

Hubs reacted to Pancake Bear in Washington’s staff
Really excited about Enright. What I dig is that he's got a good pedigree, being mentored by a guy like Strom. He also seems to have a good sense of what went wrong last year and what these guys are capable of.
My favorite part of the Q&A, though, was when he said the front office is backing off their one-size-fits-all approach and leaving the data in the hands of the coaching staff to appropriate as needed. I.e. Perry is hiring coaches he trusts and then trusting them to disseminate the information they're getting from the analytics department in whatever way will be of most benefit to the pitchers. That all gives me hope that we'll see some of these guys get back to where they were or maybe even take a step forward.

And the Rangers are still a bottom of the AL West team in 2023. Except...oh....wait for it...teams can improve.

Hubs reacted to Stradling in Your Angels Offseason Plan
I assume guys like Montas, Flaherty and Mannea would be the type of guys the Angels would be looking for as the 2nd arm added in the off season.

Hubs got a reaction from Angel Oracle in The Official Los Angeles Angels 2023-2024 Hot Stove Offseason Thread
Don't forget that Nola got 24 AAV over 7, and so yeah, Snell is right there, probably a bit ahead of Nola. Like 7 @ 26 or 27.

Hubs reacted to Chuck in The Official Los Angeles Angels 2023-2024 Hot Stove Offseason Thread
I know it's a pipe dream but my hope is the Angels sign Shohei Ohtani and he recruits Yamamoto to sign and be the ace of the club in 2024 with the thought that they both spearhead the Angels to success together as the best 1-2 punch in baseball out of the rotation in 2025 and beyond.

mmc, when did you become the authority here on what discussions are relevant and worth having?

Hubs got a reaction from greginpsca in Angels Free Agency Predictions
MY prediction is as follows:
1) Ohtani re-signs, they get two starters, one via trade (not Glasnow) and one via free agency (Gray or Stroman or Imanga). They also sign Jung Ho Lee from Korea and an infielder. Yes I realize this is likely (45+22+10)
2) Ohtani signs elsewhere, they sign Bellinger (25 per but over 11) and get Yamamoto (7 years 203). They also sign a lower tier starter like Seth Lugo (3/42). They also sign Tim Anderson (1 year 7M).
