Tony Reagins (the Napoli scapegoat) is probably privately celebrating Dipoto's failing tenure as GM.
Even Reagins didn't put our Angels in a hole this big.
Must see the Tony Reagins celebration video

I wonder if someone needs to post the definition of vindication. 

Don't forget the haren trade.
We might have one of the best rotations in baseball right now and for the next few years if arte could hop in the delorean and prevent reagins from being born

Lol at a Tony Reagins vindication thread.
 
He was AWFUL at his job, and belongs in whatever meaningless peon role he's in now.

Vacuum store. Then you could see two things that suck from the same parking lot.

No one gets fired because they're all responsible. Arte went after the big splashes and they've failed him. Dipoto handled the smaller acquisitions and that failed. Scioscia looks worn out and less interested since Dipoto took the reigns. The players themselves with the exception of Mike Trout failed to match their own hype. This is a shared blame situation and Arte knows it.

Plus ten bucks for parking.

You could turn in your tickets for the rest of the season and request a refund, Claude.
 
So glad they went to the dynamic pricing this year. That influenced me that all they care about is their bottom line. It didn't matter that they pissed off more long time fans. I was a 10 year season ticket holder that gave them up in 2012, before they signed Albert.
 
I went to the 66ers game last night and if I lived in the IE, I would frequent that ball park more often.
 
Thanks, Arte!

Because he posted this in April, then in May and now June makes the third time and three is a charm.

Walks were never a false stat in Oakland.

Moneyball is finding undervalued stats so you could get cheaper players.  Stealing was overvalued at the time, and thus guys like Damon was overpaid.
 
That's not the case anymore.
 
A's do moneyball in the sense they can't spend as much money.  

I'm hearing rain should be done by 10am and I'm gearing it will be raining all day. Already ate a whole lobster. Front desk said we're in the room they used in the filming of The Town, right before the heist

Oh darn I have to spend all day and night at Fenway tomorrow!

I have a Brandon Wood signed baseball.

The Angels have never won more than 79 games in seasons ending in 3.
 
1963 won 70 games
1973 won 79 games
1983 won 70 games
1993 won 71 games
2003 won 77 games
 
2013 Angels are on pace to win 70 games.

Odd, no mention of Butcher. I wonder why?

This team was built on bad karma.
1)Scioscia pushed Napoli out and denied it.
2)Scioscia let Reagins be the patsy fall guy.
3)Dipoto snuck out on the Diamondbacks to go try on some big boy pants. Arizona is doing just fine without him.
3)Dipoto traded Dan Haren.....twice!
4)Dipoto went against Sosh on Jeffy and brought in our latest, greatest catcher Iannetta and then extended him. Colorado has Dipoto on speed dial.
5)Arte loved what Pujols did to the Rangers one October night and decided he needed to have him regardless of what his new GM had to say.
6)Pujols ditched the City of St Louis. The Cardinals are doing fine without him.
7)CJ Wilson ditched Texas. The Rangers are doing just fine without him.
8)Hamilton ditched Texas and left his message with the Rangers fans. Texas is doing just fine without him.
9)Mike Trout was given minimum wage.
10)Torii Hunter was not given the whole truth about the teams financial condition.

All this mess started when Scioscia forced Reagins to trade Napoli for Wells. Its been downhill ever since.

Awww damn.
 
Just saw the last name.
 
He's still a douche ass.

I would buy a ticket just to watch the recreated rape scene from "Deliverance" on the jumbo tron, with the rally monkey playing the role of Ned Beatty's character and Erik Bedard and Bud Norris playing the hillbillies.
