    Why? I think he’s tremendously valuable.
    Just don’t think the Angels are going to be good enough in his remaining years of control, and we’ll see him walk or get injured or become ineffective before the team is good enough to either capitalize on his performance or cash it in for a worthy return.
    The Angels are the ones hurtin’ me.

    Exactly.  Each year this team sucks even with huge performances from Trout & Ohtani.  As the season goes along, the lack of depth is on full display with very little bench and farm system available to get thru the long 162 season.  The lack of producing any stars is obvious.  But even more telling is simply good depth players available and on hand when injuries occur.  You can twist the narrative all you want to make excuses for the Angels and be a homer.  "Gotta support the team!" -- as Puddy would say on Seinfeld.  But we have 10 years of data -- facts are facts.  
    Hopefully, one day soon, we can put that behind us and get back to the Stoneman days of true farm system building and player development.  It requires a sea change though.  This organization will linger in apathy/insignificance until then.

    Sure, but we aren't winning and haven't been. So many teams have guys that are as good as those and in similar volumes. The rest of the Angels have been so bad for so long that we've grown into thinking that a few young guys contributing anything is exceptional. Also, is been a year. We've had Fletcher, Walsh, Borjous, Barria, Canning, Suarez come up and look good for short periods of time. 
    The system was bad and still looks bad.

    Is someone defending the wife beating?
     
    Just take the L “guy”.  You were ready to convict Bauer and ran your trap and you were wrong, as per usual, and now you just vomit up retarded bullshit.  Pretending to stick up for women when your real agenda is to “get” people you hate politically.

    I'm down if Montgomery signs for something closer to Rodriguez's 4/$80m versus the 6/$150m that MLBTR predicted.
    Both going into their age 31 in '24.

    It's more about depth which is pretty shallow in the minors for some key positions. I see it as a work in progress if Minasian can keep Arte from burning his draft picks. But I really like the young core the Angels have now. It's kinda funny thinking Rengifo is the old guy in that group at 27.

    Oh so the guy gets wronged, and then because a team won’t be able to force him to keep his mouth shut about him being treated poorly they’ll just force him out of the game.  Seems pretty shitty.
     And let’s call a spade a spade,   most people are fucking idiots and spineless cowards who are willing to go along with a shitty situation just so as not to be inconvenienced or be made to feel “on the outside.”  Ya, it might take a bit of balls for a team to sign Bauer and then get up in front of a bunch of people and say, if you don’t like this then fuck you.  Because Bauer did nothing wrong and your opinions of him aren’t based on illegal acts, you just don’t like his personality and that’s not a reason to not sign a talented pitcher that can help a team. Will that happen?  Probably not. Should it?  Absolutely.

    Yeah. And every year people on here say we're ranked too low and scouts only pay attention to the Yankees and Dodgers prospects... Meanwhile we've produced Trout, Ohtani and no one else of note in 15 years. Maybe the low rankings were right.

    I think they've botched Bachman, Adell, Canning and Suarez. They brought all of those guys up too early, in part due to pressure to win with Trout/Ohtani/Rendon in the lineup. Bachman is injury prone, but in reality he should have spent last year starting once a week in AA or AAA. Adell was brought up in '20 well before he was ready because Eppler needed something. Canning was fast-tracked despite having major injury questions. Suarez was brought up years too early. He came up at age 21 and gave up 23 HR in 81 IP (!!!). 2020 he had a solid 3 point percentage...oh shoot that was his ERA. It took him years to settle in, but who knows if his trajectory would have changed if 2021 was his first year. 
    They continue to aggressively promote, but there's really only one reason I think the low ranking is a big deal: The lack of pitching talent. The system is extremely dry when it comes to pitching prospects. And this is where you really can have success, having young pitchers under control for 6 years. Free agent pitchers are incredibly unreliable. Other than that, they have C, SS, CF, and 1B pretty well covered for the next 5-6 years. Finding position players isn't as difficult, and even if it is you are more likely to hit on something in FA at OF or 2B than a SP.

    LOL ok bud.  Keep dreaming if you think that would be top 10-15.  Full on homer...but i get it, it's a fan site.  But try staying in reality on occasion.  If you want to look at it different, evaluate teams on 23 or 25 and below talent.  It's not good.  A few solid players, sure.  Stars/elite players -- no way.  Certainly well below par compared to the league.  
    Plus, you could play that same game with every team.  They all have guys advancing and/or traded.

    Look, best case scenario he shows up in an Angels uni and there is a media circus for Spring Training his first couple starts. Then he is old news unless something comes up. By the trade deadline if he is pitching well but the Angels are out of it they get a prospect haul in trade. If he is throwing well and the Angels are in the playoffs his bonus money is paid for. If he sucks then they dump him like any other MLB minimum player, no extra costs.

    Agree, but because he was found innocent and the accuser was found to be a gold digger from the start, he deserves to return to MLB.
    Bad behavior on both ends is unacceptable.   In this case, that’s on her.

    Cuban did just sell a majority of the Mavs.  I thought that was more due to him wanting to spend more time and money in other businesses.  But maybe it was to invest in a baseball team.  I don’t really care who the new owner will eventually be once Arte is gone.  I’d just like Arte gone.

    This offseason seems to indicate a sale. Lots of one year deals for spare parts; no long term commitments. That is my hope, anyway.
