Continuing to roster Suarez, in addition to the all the bad moves/decisions he's made mean he's awful. Yes, it's not just the Suarez thing. But the Suarez thing is another in the pile of bad decisions Perry has made.
How, exactly, has Minasian improved the analytics?
The guy he hired (Tamin) had conflict with Maddon and others in the org, then got shown the door at the end of last season.
I you want to blame Perry, there’s plenty of things to blame him for.
Blaming him for not trading a generational player when ownership prevented it is not one of those things.
Perhaps.
But the team was good when he grew up watching them.
He was 8 in 2002.
Players who watched the Angels as a kid within the last decade are the ones who’ll be more likely to steer clear.
He probably got sent there because Evan White (plus others) were hurt and they needed a body.
I agree; the IE stint seems like a last chance to get things together or you’re gone.
And there’s the answer for why Drury or Thaiss didn’t hit for Adrianza, as they wouldn’t have anyone to play 2B if they went to extras (since Rengifo pinch hit for Neto)
Thank you, Jeff.
Mods can close this thread now if they wish.
Again, I admit I was wrong about the Adell thing.
His offense has been great lately.
At the time, in my opinion, Rengifo’s defense was unplayable and something had to be done.
