He'll be fine, look at Giolito. He was a highly regarded pitching prospect for a long time, struggled mightly in his first couple years in the majors, then finally put it all together this year in his 24-25 season.
I wouldn't be surprised if we got a depth starter but I don't see us outbidding anyone else for the higher caliber players, which is the story of the Angels search for pitching in the Trout era.
Have to take into account the Red Sox, Rays, and A’s (potentially the Indians too) will be much more aggressive buyers at the deadline than the Angels will. They will be much tougher opponents when the Angels play them than they are now.
Surprised so many want Archer after the Harvey/Cahill disasters. Enough with the reclamation projects. This team has needed serious rotation help for the last 10 years. It’s time to add actual impact pitchers.
It seems like we talk about the free agent pitchers all the time on here, but not so much the position players. Who do you hope the Angels target? I would love it if the Angels went all in on Yasmani Grandal.
