  1. Well then what happened to Perry saying they have a "plan A, plan B and plan C"? Clearly Ohtani was plan A, but you've got plan B to work with. Obviously they talked about it prior to all this going down so now GO DO PLAN B. Or just sell the team finally and get the hell away from Anaheim, California and the West Coast.
  2. They also said Ha-Seong Kim is on the block but it's interesting. Would Neto move to 2B?
  3. We are so signing Trevor Bauer now hahahahahahaha Because Plesac has a flare for drama.
  4. To me it isn't about balking on the $700M. If Ohtani is suggesting HEAVY deferrals that lead to a $2M salary then i'd 1000000% match it if I was Arte. The dude would have sold the team by the time that payment takes effect so it wouldn't be his concern. If anything, the value of the team would be higher when trying to sell it. It's a win-win. Keep your best player for better chances to win while flipping a bigger profit when selling the team.
  5. I'm just still trying to figure out what "aggressive" is supposed to mean. They got the last chance to dance with Ohtani and be "aggressive" and completely balked on it.
  6. He had a real shot of being dealt a few years ago too, but I hope it actually happens this time.
  7. Chapman isn't an outfielder.... If they're eyeballing outfield bats then someone else will be used in a trade.
  8. To me that just sounds like sloppy seconds. Which we all know Arte LOVES. I like Bellinger, just fear the price is a bit too high for him.
  9. This is actually very intriguing. I do believe Clevinger can bounce back and Montas likely needed to get out of NY. To what extent? who knows. Hicks is a perfect fit for the Angels since they love high-velo guys. Adames/Turner/Garver are interesting options and provide much needed depth. Curious on how the SS/2B picture looks with Adames/Neto/Drury And of course Burnes is great and a possible extension candidate.
  10. two things: I thought we weren't interested in him OH GOD HERE COMES ARTE....
  11. I'll always remember the "We Got Albert!" chants during the live press conference.
  12. I'm honestly surprised bullpen coaches are making only $90k and pitching coaches are between $150k-$350k. I always thought all coaches were above like $250k haha
  13. Looks like Ryan Pepiot Jonny DeLuca part of the deal if it's a real thing
  14. If I was Perry with $73M to spend here's what i'd do: Trade Adell + others for Bieber: +$12.2M (Est via spotrac) Sign Montgomery: $23M AAV Sign Soler: $15M AAV Sign Hicks: $8M AAV Sign Gurriel Jr.: $13.5AAV I think this might make us have possible shot at a WC spot.
  15. I'm all for this. Now comes the real question: Ohtani would have solidified DH and Top rotation (2025) Are the Angels better projected to trade for Bieber, sign Montgomery and Soler? Still is cheaper than just Ohtani. I think so.
  16. I'm just super curious to see how the Angels might possibly trade for Burnes, Glasnow or Bieber if they're possibly competing against the Dodgers, Blue Jays, Giants, Yankees and Mets.
  17. Arte is for sure selling this franchise in 2024. Dude can't compete with the dream he envisioned for the Angels.
  18. Let's just have Sam Blum get that exclusive Arte Moreno interview. That'd be gold.
