35 is not a prime number. 

35 is a tier 3 age.

Is there any doubt that Adell is the best player on the team right now? 

The Kevin pillar hate is real. Wasting his prime years.

Nah I think you gotta keep Canning.

I would trade Sandoval though if he goes in a nice run ahead of the deadline.  Sandy drives me nuts. 

He just doesn’t have it mentally. Talent can carry a few stretches but I wouldn’t trust him with any type of meaningful game. Trade for just about anything.

Definitely trade him at the deadline. Canning as well. 

And apparently Kevin hall of fame pillar and Willie stargel Calhoun.

maybe they can get giolito again. 

Zero hesitation trade. Get the absolute best young player a team offers in return.

Plenty of people have given him interviews.  His in-depth interviews are great.

However, hes entitled into believing everyone owes him one. thats the difference. when he doesnt get what he thinks hes owed he turns into a pretentious twat.

It’s a double edged sword. Sure he can act like a twat, but then  when he acts like a twat he shouldnt be surprised when nobody gives him an interview. That’s a Sam Blum problem.

It's not the job of a beat writer or columnist to be a cheerleader for the team. If the Angels did something to negatively affect the customer experience, it should be written about. 

Nobody said he had to be a cheerleader but it’s also not his job to whine like a pretentious brat. If you can’t read his sarcastic tone then you should definitely re-read the verbiage.

the quote “forced their fans to wait in line” 

how about “poor performance by the angels today as they lose big 10-4”

same message minus the I need to be a dipshit to get views.

Sam Blum doing his absolute hardest to become the beat writer for the blue jays minor league affiliate the Fontana foreskins. Seems like he absolutely hates the angels and also his job.

I guess it was too much to expect Suarez to have another good outing after his 2 shutout innings a few days ago.

Today he pitches a shit out instead

Rendon was transferred to the 60 day DL to make room.

After reading the news, Rendon is now out indefinitely because his eyes exploded and heart stopped working.

tough luck

May 7: INF Luis Rengifo expected to return during next homestand

Manager Ron Washington said on Tuesday that Rengifo's blisters from the illness he is dealing with are looking much better, but he's still dealing with some irritation in his feet with those symptoms given the friction from moving around.

"He'll probably be ready to go by the time we get home," Washington said. "He was in a better mood today and his blisters looked better today."

Rengifo was expected to return initially on Monday, but he was scratched from the lineup, and Brandon Drury replaced him at second base. Tuesday's game marks the fourth straight that he has missed due to illness.

Sounds like rengifo has hand foot mouth.

Your proposal was based on a false pretense.   Any team going 3-0 would have been an outlier.  Which is why you find the logic of the Tiers challenging.

You chose to jump the gun after the first game, whilst more seasoned observers reserved comment until the series concluded.   It is apparent that Self control is NOT one of your better angels.

The series played out exactly as the Tiers predicted (in a majority of contests).  Tier 1 - 67% win rate.   Tier 5 - 33% win rate.

 

So the fact that I proposed this before the first game is irrelevant? You are clearly delusional and the prescribed medication you take or should be taking should be up for review by a licensed professional. 
 

let’s see, your supposed t1 team nearly lost 2/3 to a team without their top 2 players and a bunch of AAA players and 2nd year players. They should have swept the angels and anything less than that is a bad outcome. It’s not an outlier it’s a flawed thought process by a horribly incompetent internet troll. 
 

id continue this conversation but I’m not sure you can process the information coherently so I’ll just continue drinking my beer and pick up the dog shit in my yard.

Precisely why the proprietary Tier metrics are first and foremost based on "series win" vs individual games.   Yes a Tier 1 team would be expected to beat a Tier 5 team 67% of the time, and that is exactly what happened.

Thank you for going silent the entirety of the series until the guardians won 2 of 3. Again, you ducked my proposal and came here to gloat as if I didn’t state the angels taking 1 of 3 results in nothing. You confirmed how much of a dumb dumb you actually are. Congrats!

Just looking out for you my man.   Also, Without your takes, other more tenured posters  may slip into Tier 6 

Ah man I’m sure this was just a fluke. No way a t6 team beat a t1 team…

Because self banning is as dumb as building a tier system without using any respectable metrics.

Just to keep in interesting......

1.  If Angels sweep, I will apologize for wasting every ones time and delete the Tiers thread, and self ban from using the word "Tier"

2. If Angels get swept you will post an apology for doubting the logic and viability of the Tiers and add the sentence "Angelsfan1984 is a Tier 6 poster". and tag it to your future posts for the rest of the season.

3.  No self bans because flukes do happen.

Based on your tiers the guardians should throttle the angels. 2 angel wins should be enough for this to happen. time to show us what you got…
 

Why are you feeling so hesitant? 

@Swordsman78 put up time. Let’s see how accurate your tiers are. Self ban if angels win 2 of 3. I’ll self ban if they get swept by this juggernaut. If angels sweep you change your name to “my tiers are dumb”.

deal?

Little known fact. Cash considerations has been traded nearly 1,588x in his big league career. Incredible stat!

trying to get more length out of him turns him into something he's not.  I say let him nibble and grind out 5 with good results consistently.  I'm of the mind you have to have a very good fastball if you're going to be effective AND efficient.  Sandoval's fastball is a secondary pitch.

The blind squirrel anomaly would have to come into play. 

No faith in your tiers?

Angels win 2 of 3 - you self ban

Angels win 1 of 3 - nothing happens

Angels swept - ill self ban
