Didn't you work on that show?

Maybe Bauer is still hoping to be picked up by an MLB team so he's going month-to-month in Mexico.

Another baserunning blunder.

Why is the farm system so mediocre?
Scouting and player development are the keys to producing good prospects. 
In the past scouts would physically 'beat the bushes' as the saying goes. Now it's computers, video and analytics that seem prioritized. And often over rule what was seen by scouts first hand. 
The 2012 Clint Eastwood movie 'Trouble with the Curve' dramatizes this contrast though it wasn't the greatest movie. 
As well, player development with these prospects is critical. 
Seems the Angels just have no long term plan or dependable infrastructure in place for finding and  growing young talent. That draft a few years ago of only pitchers was a sign of pure desperation and a panic reaction. 
A true rebuild ideally starts with a new owner, head of baseball ops and an organization of the best available scouts, coaches and managers. All on the same page with a master plan. And the patience to grow it. 
Just year after year of stagnation and reflex moves remind me of the Bob Dylan line.

Pro-Palestinian protesters are backed by a surprising source: Biden's biggest donors

The donors include some of the biggest names in Democratic circles: Soros, Rockefeller and Pritzker, according to a POLITICO analysis.

I sure as hell didn't. This is why you should always vote no for any proposition or ballot measure that requires additional spending. 

Sure.  It's been like a week.  I'm not going to get too excited yet, given the previous 450 major league ABs and his mediocre minor league numbers since he was drafted.

Ain't it the truth...
Jerry Seinfeld says the ‘extreme left’ has ruined sitcoms with ‘PC crap’
https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/jerry-seinfeld-says-extreme-left-090739875.html
“It used to be, you would go home at the end of the day, most people would go, “Oh, ‘Cheers’ is on. Oh, ‘M*A*S*H’ is on. Oh, ‘Mary Tyler Moore’ is on. ‘All in the Family’ is on.” You just expected, there’ll be some funny stuff we can watch on TV tonight,” he told the outlet. “Well, guess what — where is it? This is the result of the extreme left and P.C. crap, and people worrying so much about offending other people.”

With that attitude you must be happy all of the time. 

Huge break for Jimmy.

The Angels are an easy target to dump on. It's built up the entire length of Trout's career. Especially for east coast media. Do you think he would have such  contempt for the Red Sox or Yankees in a similar scenario? No doubt there would be criticism but I doubt it would be so dismissive and polarizing. After all he has to physically hang around those environments more frequently than venturing into Anaheim other than on rare occasions. If he personally was around Trout regularly be might have a more nuanced perspective. 
Good player on a weak team most of his career? Happens all the time everywhere. Less so now than in the past but every sport still has multiple examples. And it's not like Trout didn't have a choice. He has his priorities and expectations for the future and locked himself in with full understanding of the risks. And there are many examples of players finding redemption very late in their careers.
It might even make a better story if the Angels become elite at the very end of Trout's contract/career. Making his loyalty and perseverance more newsworthy.
 

It's not as if Trout is killing it in Anaheim but the team around him sucks. He hasn't been good and now he's hurt. Again.
Trout has had a great career. He got the big contract and was the poster boy of MLB for several years. Now he's in the twilight of his career.
If he wanted to win championships he should never have signed the extension with the Angels. Some of us said that at the time.
If Trout wants out of Anaheim I'm sure we would have heard about it by now.

Keep politics out of this!

I wonder if they can just go ahead and do the 2025 surgery at the same time.

I still need to watch the whole video but the opening number Jessica was so great. Allman Bros. defined the genre.

I was just watching this earlier in the week.
 

He was hilarious. Some great characters on SCTV and as a Russian Boarder Guard in “Stripes”.

Huge break for Jimmy.

Angels were oblivious and the Dodgers came to the rescue.

Huge break for Jimmy.
