jchalos89 reacted to tdawg87 in Angels discussed Clevinger with Indians
This is what happened:
Indian's GM: Hello?
Eppler: Good morning, it's Billy Eppler. How are you doing?
Indian's GM: I'm doing well Bill how is your family?
Eppler: Doing great. Doing great. So listen, I just wanted to check in on Mike Clevinger. I've heard some rumblings that he might be available for a trade?
Indian's GM: Well we're certainly willing to listen, sure.
Eppler: Great. So what type of deal are you looking for? We've got some great kids on the farm and some young talent at the big league level.
Indian's GM: Jo Ade...
Eppler: Cool, cool, cool. Listen man it was great talking to you. I hope you had a great holiday.

jchalos89 reacted to Jeff Fletcher in Ryu: “Angels didn’t want two Asian players on the team”
A reader forwarded this story to me and I ran it by Scott Boras and he said it’s not true. They never were told or led to believe in any way the Angels had any issue with having two Asian players.

jchalos89 got a reaction from stormngt in Ryu to Toronto 4/$80m
I'm against signing Ryu for 4+ yrs and I think Ryu pitching in Dodger stadium in NLW and Ryu in Rogers Centre in ALE will be totally different.
I preferred Keuchel over Ryu for health issue + Keuchel was likely to demand lower salary and shorter contract term (which turned out to be true) but they missed out on Keuchel and now Ryu is also gone. There is literally no front end starter left in the market. idk what kind of trade Eppler is working on but getting a front line starter without giving up Adell and Canning will be very tough

jchalos89 got a reaction from ukyah in Ryu to Toronto 4/$80m
so before off season began, Eppler said starting pitching is the team's priority and Arte said he is willing to go over the cap to improve the team and somehow Julio Teheran is the biggest FA starter acquisition this team got.
What a fkin epic market lol
Now Eppler will try to convince Arte about how Ohtani-Teheran-Bundy-Heaney-Canning and bunch of minor leaguers are "strong group" that's capable of being front line pitchers.

Hey, that's an upgrade over Trevor Cahill last year. Eppler said he'd improve the rotation!

jchalos89 got a reaction from Justin in Dallas Keuchel signs with the White Sox (3 years, $55.5 million)
so it seems more and more like we're gonna end up with garbage rotation to start the season again "hoping" that some of them somehow stay healthy or outperform everybody's expectations, which will not happen.

jchalos89 got a reaction from ten ocho recon scout in The best and worst FA signings of the decade
I believe Josh Addicton's contract was worse than Puljos' if you look at the contract itself and how it turned out.
But I agree AP contract was the biggest mistake and setback for this franchise since Ham's contract was shorter and Arte was able to eat that shit up to get rid of him while AP contract lasts for a decade and we never got to get rid of him cuz he's a first ballot hall of famer

jchalos89 got a reaction from Billy_Ball in Angels sign Julio Teheran (1 year, $9 million)
I like this move.
Very durable arm, turning 29 and has strong motivation to perform well for long term contract next summer, almost guaranteed 30+ starts, 180 innings, high 3s to mid 4s ERA.
He ain't anything like an ace but you aren't getting an ace with 9M/1yr deal anyways, so this move has low risk and decent return for the Angels.
