  1. His value is not negative, his trade value is negative. One of the top 10 players in the game until he hiccupped in 2020 is a very valuable player to have on a team.
  2. I only voted for Bonds. If he doesn't deserve the Hall, no one does.
  3. I'm confused. If we wait and see how 2021 plays out before making decisions, wouldn't including Bundy and Heaney on the 2022 roster be dipping into that 2022 free agent list?
  4. Signing Quintana is a good thing, but it's more about depth than it is actual improvement.
  5. Not sure what they will have in Ohtani this year. I'd guess 70 just as some sort of mid point.
  6. Snell has "overpriced disaster" stamped on his forehead. Given the prospects that would be lost in a trade, I have little interest.
  7. I understand a lot of Irish get obnoxious when they drink, but I think shooting them is probably over reacting a little, no?
  8. Yeah, you really have to hand it to the Aztecs. Using their primitive technology (didn't even have the wheel) they could run sacrificial victims over their altars faster than the Nazi's could run Jews through Auschwitz. That is actually pretty impressive.
  9. A life long friend of mine is Paiute. He would agree with the above statement 100%.
  10. At first, no. As the season approaches, enough of a silver lining for each acquisition will have been uncovered to inspire enthusiasm throughout Angel's Nation. A month into the season reality will have sharply slapped us all in the face and the enthusiasm will have turned into yet another taste of bile.
  11. Dude almost killed me in Kaufman stadium. Taught me to actually watch during batting practice, haha.
  12. I like Eppler and think he did a good job of putting this organization back together. That said, at a certain point results matter. Time to try something different.
  13. Yep, season is almost over and we're out of contention. Why not go home early. Every Angel player should follow suit and we can just sacrifice the remaining games. In fact, every team that is out of it should just quit now. I mean, why not?
  14. I believe it's mostly financial. Throw in punishing CA regulations and there you go. It's actually cheaper to send the rocket to Florida by ship and launch from there than it is to launch from Vandenberg. Musk wants to cut costs and the best way to do that long-term is to build your own facilities in a business friendly environment like Texas.
  15. Isn't there a "No crying in baseball" rule of some sort?
  16. I understand. That's how it works now. Nevertheless....
  17. Sounds about right. In a sense, my belief that I am not racist is little more than an educated opinion. For fifty years or more whenever my mother receives a notice for jury duty she replies that she believes the court system in inherently biased against black people and that she flatly refuses to participate. Certainly there are many examples of anti-black bias occurring in individual events, but I am unconvinced the bias is systemic.
  18. So, since I'm white I cannot objectively state whether I'm racist?
  19. Although I did manage to sneak into the clubhouse once. I walked up to Reggie Jackson and started a conversation. He was looking at me like "who the f*ck are you" but he wasn't rude.
  20. I tried climbing a fence near the bleachers about 30 years ago. Security was not amused.
  21. I'll not speculate on motives behind the decision to send him down (?) but the Angels gave him a chance to force his way onto the roster and he didn't do it. It's on him as well as the team.
