  1. Babe Ruth. A mythical figure. Also, this might be cheating, but if you choose Ruth in 1927, you also get to see Gehrig, when the two of them combined for more than 24 bWAR.
  2. Sometimes players come through and sometimes they don't. You can accept that, or you can create narratives about distractions or not trusting their teammates.
  3. On one hand that's really discouraging. On the other hand, they still have a winning record; what happens if they improve their defense?
  4. Trout turns 32 in less than three months. He's not going to be as good as he was at 25. That might depress you, but don't let it surprise you.
  5. Also, it's still Sunday morning. I have most of the day ahead of me. This is way better than the Sunday afternoon rollovers to which I have become accustomed.
  6. It had to happen at this point, but part of me was worried Minasian wouldn't do it.
  7. Great job, Renfroe. Disappointing job, Detmers. I have found myself saying both of those things more than I expected to this season.
  8. I thought this would be a better Angels team than we have seen for several years and the division would be worse than we have seen for several years. I still think both of those things. There have been some really disappointing games and some bad luck. But there is plenty of season left and both of those things can improve. I have not yet given up.
  9. I'm starting to consider the possibility that Ohtani might not re-sign.
  10. Roger Lodge would be embarrassed by how forced that segment was.
  11. I remember that well. Tampa didn't have a single baserunner that game... and then they came to Anaheim and swept four games. Including coming back from an 8-0 deficit the night the Angels honored the tenth anniversary of the '02 team.
  12. I miss the days when I had better things to do with my life on a Friday night.
  13. It's like he decided 'I'm not going to call 162 games this season, so I'm going to cram 162 games worth of words into however many game I do end up calling.'
