I couldn't believe what I saw when Adam posted it on FB last night. This is an absolute shocker. So many great times with Brandon around the AW family. Funny enough, Brandon was the reason I love Infiniti's and have one now. I'll always have him to thank for that. Can't begin to imagine what his sisters and mom are going through. Condolences to his entire family. So many infamous threads throughout the years he was a part of. The firefighter coors light thread. I believe that's the same thread as the "this is what it sounds like when doves cry" moment. Just endless fun and banter on here. Who can forget the ribbing of partying with Mark Teixeira at Sharky's and essentially live tweeting it here on the board. All of the pure gold in the "breakup thread". Just cus we all need the laugh, "yolked on her face" will NEVER not be funny and grotesque at the same time but in the greatest of ways. I still to this day catch myself saying that from time to time.

Remembering an AngelsWin.com Legend - Lou (IEBRUIN)
HaloCory22 replied to Chuck's topic in The Official Hangout Forum
Where to even start... I know I haven't been here in years but man. Fuck cancer. Many of the OGs will remember the thread but my first thought after reading some of the replies here is ... Please let this be yet another infamous "A-hole actions of IEBruin" moment and he's hustling us here. Lou, I am so sorry this happened to you. We only got to meet once but years and years of banter on here. Everyone is going to miss you. There's only 1 IEBruin. -

Definitely still need to sign or trade for another arm. I wanted Alex Wood as a buy low guy that has solid potential and is still young. However, that's not necessarily the impact arm. There are a lot of arms in our system Suarez, Pena, Barria, Peters, etc. Doesn't mean any of them are worth a damn. If our current projected rotation of Ohtani, Heaney, Canning, Teheran, Bundy gets hurt we're in the exact same position as 2019 by filling the injured spots with turds.

The Official 2019-2020 Anaheim Ducks Thread

Anything that keeps Manson off the ice more I'm fair game on. However, I'm still not a huge Fowler fan on the PP. -

All is good, GB! I'm a Texan now hah. Things are good though. AW got lost in the shuffle of the move. Definitely trying to get more involved here again though. Feels like forever. -

The Official 2019-2020 Anaheim Ducks Thread
HaloCory22 replied to gotbeer's topic in NHL Central Forum
The Ducks are putting themselves in a solid position for the draft. We're due for some luck. If we can somehow get the #1 pick and get Lafreniere that would be huge. Zegras looks like the real deal. He actually looks like an elite talent. Steel, Terry, Jones, Comtois are all very talented guys and I think in the next year or 2 they'll significantly improve. None of them are elite level talents to lead the next gen like Getzlaf and Perry were. Zegras and Lafreniere could be those guys. Elite level guys that have impact right away when they hit the NHL. Not just rookies getting their feet wet. That's been the Ducks biggest problem. None of our rookies are true impact guys right from day 1. Not to say they won't be eventually. If I'm GMBM I completely sell off at the deadline. Commit fully to the re-build for the rest of this season and next. Trade Henrique, Silf, Fowler, Manson. Silf's stock won't be higher than it is right now. Some say he could net a 1st rounder. Dumping those contracts frees up a lot of money we can use to sign key pieces in free agency. Mix that in with draft picks acquired and player progress. We'll be in a good spot. At least the Eakins Ducks are more entertaining to watch than the Carlyle Ducks. -
Gerrit Cole signs with the Yankees (9 years, $324 million)
HaloCory22 replied to mmc's topic in LA Angels | MLB Daily
What an offseason so far for the Angels. I’m glad they’re “all in” though. I was really pissed odd earlier and now I’ve had a chance to calm down. I’m still incredibly upset with the news. Now our Plan D option of Ryu/Bumgarner as our top targets feels so damn underwhelming. At this point there’s not even a guarantee we can grab those guys. Grandal, Wheeler, Stras, Cole. Goose egg on all of them. It’s very frustrating. More so with Arte. I can’t blame Eppler on this. I don’t get why others are either. Even if we get Rendon we'll be in a similar spot as the 2013 team trying to slug our way to wins. Looking at next offseason there’s really nothing great on the board either. This was the chance to nail down an anchor to lead this retooled team back to the post season or at least get on the right path. Not looking good at the moment. Sure things can change but ehhh. I’m not holding my breath. -
The Official Gerrit Cole (Please sign with the Angels) Thread
HaloCory22 replied to Chuck's topic in LA Angels | MLB Daily
FWIW, money will not be equal even if we out bid NY. That CA tax will take a serious bite out of any deal we offer. Location is all about preference too. -
Cole is the must sign. After that we still need a second arm and I'd rather do that via FA than trade. As I've mentioned a few times I'm really into Alex Wood (2020 would be his age 29 season). He'll be cheap and has a really solid track record with the Dodgers in the past. Odorizzi is another I like as well. Either of these guys would be solid 2/3s to build around Cole, Ohtani, Canning. At the end of the day we need at least 2 arms and doing it via FA seems better than trading for the arm especially since we'll lose a pick on Cole.

Realistic Angels trade options
HaloCory22 replied to angelsnationtalk's topic in LA Angels | MLB Daily
His wRC+'s since joining the Angels. 2016- 90 2017- 103 2018- 109 2019- 85 He's coming off back to back 5 WAR seasons and going into his age 30 season in 2020 about to hit free agency. I like Simmons. He's obviously an amazing defender and has tons of tools and smarts you can't put in a stat necessarily. Great clubhouse guy too and a fan favorite. However, is the difference he makes at SS worth the cost for his salary vs what Fletcher/Rengifo produce PLUS what we can acquire by trading him? -
Realistic Angels trade options
HaloCory22 replied to angelsnationtalk's topic in LA Angels | MLB Daily
What evidence is there that he'll get better in his 30s? His wRC+ hovers right at 100. Literally average. Defense has been down this year (granted might be due to the ankle injury) compared to years past. With Rengifo and Fletcher along with the guy we drafted this year we have options. Much cheaper options that we can put money towards a true need in starting pitching. Simmons could be put to good use with that one more year on the contract. -
Morosi: Angels are interested in Matthew Boyd
HaloCory22 replied to mmc's topic in LA Angels | MLB Daily
Agree with Strad. Dodgers have made all of their big SP moves via trade or development. Greinke was the last one. Most/all of their FA SP signings have been for mid tier guys. Not saying the Dodgers won't check in on Cole and see but this is a guy the Angels almost have to overpay for. Do whatever it takes to get him signed.
