    Clark W Griswold got a reaction from Anthony Tendon in 2022-23 offseason, what you expect to see vs what you hope   
    Re-sign Ohtani, trade for Soto and sign Judge as a FA.
    I just fixed the offense for only a billion or so dollars.  Spend around 50 million more to shore up the pitching and they might contend for the third WC spot next year.
    Come on Arte, pay up!

    Weather.com says only 35% chance of T-showers until 9pm EST, then no more rain the rest of the weekend.

    Clark W Griswold got a reaction from T.G. in 2023 World Baseball Classic Thread   
    WBC is next March so will Trout’s back be OK by then?
    We Angels fans have to be really happy about this. He can’t play a full season any more but he’s signing up for more baseball.  I’m as patriotic as anyone but this guy does not need to be playing any extra games.
    But we will all love it if he gets to hit against Ohtani so theres that I guess.

    Clark W Griswold got a reaction from Angel Oracle in Angels place Mike Trout on 10-day IL (left ribcage inflammation), claim Phil Gosselin off waivers, outright Monte Harrison   
    Trout needs to rest and get his body right for the World Baseball Classic in March.
    No one can say that he’s given up or know where he’s at mentally but I think there is little argument against saying he is becoming injury prone.  They need to tell him he’s moving to a corner spot next year to try and help him stay healthy as much as they can. It’s not his choice.

    Really high leg kick so it will be interesting to see if they tone that down.
    is he already penciled in at SS for Friday’s game vs the Braves?

    Clark W Griswold got a reaction from Angelsfan1984 in Stop the hat already   
    I think it’s stupid to celebrate the meaningless HRs but I get them trying to have some fun in what is going to end up being a very long season.
    They should have a ceremony where the whole team is there and burn the hat to end the bad streak.  This gets rid of the stupid hat and let’s them have some fun.
    Is it ok if I hate both Stradling and CaliAngel?

    They should replace it with a strikeout hat. Then they'll get to celebrate 15 times a game and morale will improve drastically. Problem solved.

    He’s part of the problem and has not carried his weight and helped the team with all his injuries. If he wants to be really pissed about the way things are than he should do some self reflection first

    Leave him out there to die.  Why waste the arm of another guy?  Who cares if he gives up 15 runs?  This guy will never be a quality starter.

    No matter what happens the rest of the year, the 2022 Angels were The Champions of the Cactus League.
    They can never take that away from them.

    Last weekend during the Orioles series, the O's broadcast had a graphic with worst records the last 2 months or something like that, and the Angels had the worst record in MLB
    So to answer your question, no, nobody is playing worse than the Angels. They've been the worst team in baseball for over 1/4 of the season now

    Trout is becoming more part of the problem than the solution.  I don’t feel bad for him not making the playoffs any more but I do feel for Ohtani.  Fragile Mikey needs to focus on staying healthy and playing like a star again.  If he sits tomorrow and then plays in the ASG that will tell us all we need to know about what’s important to him.

    I think if Adell ever becomes a good Major Leaguer it won’t be with the Angels. Whatever they are doing with him isn’t working.  He’s a young guy who already needs a change of scenery/fresh start.
    That was 2 plays in a row that any major leaguer should make. Villar and Adell should both be charged with errors.

    They can trade whoever they want and it wouldn’t bother me. This group just isn’t cutting it.
    My interest is in seeing if they can develop guys like Bachman.
    I would love it if Bally’s started showing the Trash Panda’s games instead of the Angels.

    Thanks to Peacock I can break my bad habit of having to watch this team (at least for today).  I’m not paying 4.99 to watch them.  MLB losing popularity and their solution is to make the games harder to watch.
