Angels in 2030

Bundy just gave up back to back homers. Cancel the extension. 

Pujols hit everybody pretty well “over his career.”  He is Albert Pujols.
The question is how has he hit him over the last couple of years?

Why do I feel like TJ surgery is just waiting around for Canning as soon as he’s ready for it?!?

They were played poorly ..... and the easiest way to remedy that is to give him more reps at 1B. 
AP needs to accept his role as elder statesman and be there to support Walsh, pinch hit, and fill in when needed.  He's reached all the milestones he realistically could -- the Angels have given him every chance.  The best way to finish his career now is to reach the postseason one last time.
They have honored AP and his legacy enough.  Time to honor the present and the future.

I’m a huge fan of Walsh.  I believed that last year was real and he’d continue it into 2021+.  Dude needs to be playing 80%+ of the time.   Having said that, I thought those two wild throws (early & late) to first were played badly by him.   Maybe I’m being too hard on him, idk, those are tough to dig out.  But he seemed like he had no chance and was a non-1Bman trying to play 1B.  It’s a huge asset to have a guy defensively at 1B who you know will stop Anything coming his way.   Hopefully it was just early season learning curve.

Oh yeah, forgot this was the Angels for a bit.

Joe Maddon is a dolt

But what you're missing is that you're an asshole even if you're right.
 

He's quitting his job because it doesn't make him happy. 
I like that. 

Andrew Heaney in a tight situation:

Nah Pujols is done. I don't care about his experience, I'll take the better hitter in that situation.
He tried to GIDP he just didn't hit it hard enough. Pitchers know exactly what to throw him in those situations now and he doesn't adjust.

April Fool's Day is so fucking stupid.

Today has been neat.

Steal! 
This is Why you raise home grown Talent instead of signing some 30 years to a big big contract!

So this game was a real rootin-tootin shit-show.   At least they added three RPs to the organization to keep us from focusing on the stinkfest.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves and anoint Minasian "the bullpen whisperer" just yet...

Minasian woke up on the day of the final and realized he didn't study.
