Gosselin has a career wRC+ of 80. The "designated hitter"

Blackouts

That literally is already the rule. So the fact that the umpire was in the middle of punching him out makes this decision so ridiculous. The umpire very clearly didn't apply the rule correctly. Glad it wasn't the Angels at least

That was a British imperialism joke

So in the other British colonies

Unless he was using British English

Two birds, one trash can

Lol every time they replay he very clearly isn't close to touching home lol

Maybe they changed the rule to where if you throw dirt onto a base then you are safe

..... How did they review that and still call him safe? Lol what

Thank you Walsh

I think it's important for Ohtani to learn to pitch in stressful situations, so I think leaving him in was fine. Should have been out of the inning, so whatever

32, peripherals aren't great, and velocity decline the last two years

Glad the Angels didn't waste money on him

Seems like the investigation should be coming to an end soon. I think he'll be gone this week.

Ohtani and Canning are the key to me this year. Both need to stay healthy and both need to have great years on the mound. If they combine for 50 starts, sub-3.50 era, then I think the Angels have a strong chance in the regular season *and* playoffs.

Yes there are clearly allegations worthy of investigation. I'm not sure what his employment contract looks like, so the procedures involved may take extra time. Since he hasn't publicly admitted anything like the others I mentioned, that may be the case. If the Angels were to fire him without following the procedures, he would be owed his salary. So perhaps the Angels are fully investigating per their contracts in order to not have to pay him? Or at least that's one reason
