    Thank you Chuck for sharing this moment with us. I’m not a parent, I couldn’t imagine going through something like that. Glad to hear that your grandson is doing well. That’s one tough kid. Wishing your family the best and God Bless  
    I’d be the first to admit that I bash the Angels because I get too worked up sometimes. It’s because I grew to care about the team and sucks to see them perform so poorly when we know they had so much more potential. The loss of Skaggs was a terrible guy punch. It felt like I knew him, even though I never met him. I knew what loss felt like.
    I lost my mother to cancer a while ago and was searching for a new hobby when I stumbled upon baseball and this forum. I used this place to forget about the real world. The Skaggs death wasn’t supposed to happen not such at such a young age. But the combined no hitter on the night we honored his legacy was the most beautiful sports moment I ever saw. It was something we just couldn’t explain. So if you look hard enough, and keep the faith you can make it through.

    Hey guys, so my life has been quite a whirlwind over the past month or so, so I haven't been able to participate as much. In short, my grandson born in early July was born with a heart defect and needed open heart surgery. He almost died the morning after he was born and had to be helicoptered to Las Vegas' Children's Hospital. Thankfully after open heart surgery to correct TGA (Transposition of the Great Arteries), my grandson Kason is home with my son and daughter in law and doing well now.
    That said, this entire journey though got me to thinking about perspective, what this team has gone through losing one of their best friends and good teammates and how we as fans can be very selfish about what WE want and when we want it, but never think about what others are going through nor consider the long view.
    So I've been reading some of the threads of late and have seen a bunch of negativity. While venting is good and welcomed here, as is constructive criticism, it's imperative we all reign it in a bit on fire Eppler and bashing of this team for the sake of the entire community. 
    This has been a tough season. From a death in the Angels family (RIP, Skaggs) to countless injuries to our start players, not to mention a big swing and miss from our GM on all of the FA's he brought in this offseason. This has been documented, but we've beaten this dead horse to the depths of Hades. Myself included. I'm over it and done discussing it.
    Do me all a favor. Try to find something positive to post or comment on, whether it's from our parent team or the future Halos down on the farm. There are some good things ahead for our Halos. Let's enjoy the rookies performances from here on out, Trout's run for MVP and the AL HR Champ, Ohtani, Simmons defense and our kids down on the farm. Hello, Adell. 
    Someone once said “Instead of worrying about what you cannot control, shift your energy to what you can create.”  My hope is that we can all work toward creating a better atmosphere here and that our time invested at AW.com goes toward furthering a better online community for everyone involved, including our non-members who read the site (and your comments) daily.
    So let's cheer on the team in one accord, and though we may disagree and vent, we do so without vitriol, but with friendly banter. Always be mindful of our code of conduct and respectful to others. Thank you guys! ?
    Here are some pictures of my grandson Kason and my time in the Las Vegas/Laughlin area for the past 3 1/2 weeks, in order from the time he was born, to the time he was taken into surgery, post surgery and then at home after 3 weeks in the hospital.

    All I know is, Eppler had better do something about the pitching in the off-season.
    Don't become another Stoneman, suddenly NEVER trading prospects away.  
    I understand that Ausmus has to say what he said about this pitching being fine for now, to not discourage them.
    BUT, it does also smack of insulting our intelligence.

    Just hoping the recent quiet bats(Upton as an example) can get back on track. Of the starters I trust Pena the most so hopefully he can go long enough and have the run support to give the pen some rest

    I hope so.  After the frustration of the last 3 games, I’d hope we can open just 1 game of “whoop ass” on the Orioles.
    That would be great

    Just wait until the final 27 games of the season.
    Boston, Oakland, Cleveland, Tampa Bay, New York, and Houston make up 24 of those.

    I thought after the Dodger series we would have extended the winning streak to 11 before the deadline. Now it looks like going 4-3 for the homestand is a pipe dream.

    Tough call. They’re starting to lose momentum at the most important time of the year. I think if they get swept tomorrow go ahead and sell

    True. What was embarrassing was they couldn't get one run in against the worst bullpen in the league sooner.
