  1. So, we lose Urshela, Rendon, and Neto and we STILL can't call him up? Connecting the dots, it has become obvious. Fletch slept with Arte's wife (as a fellow senior citizen I think she's pretty hot and really can't blame him)!
  2. A few weeks back, Bobby Valentine said he NEVER gave the take sign in all his years of managing. I guess MLB players are just expected to KNOW!
  3. As soon as he hits 4 more, then Tony "TwoBags" will have as many doubles in his 4-year Angels' career, as he had in 2019 for the Nationals. P.S. - should happen sometime in 2025
  4. Need a hit here. I'm thinking slump-Trout has no chance vs. Chapman.
  5. One would have thought that Rengifo, Urshela, Fletcher, and Neto would have kept us from having to watch Squid hit, but here we are...
  6. I'm betting that was the first use of the word "adroitly" in Angelswin history.
  7. “It sucks,” Neto said. “But you gotta do what you gotta do. … When I come back I’m going to be better than I was. This mindset is why Neto is the BOSS!!!
  8. Trout has never done well when he's "pressing." I think he's been pressing the entire year because he doesn't want Shohei to walk.
  9. I have a feeling Trout is gonna do something positive.
  10. We can probably afford one, but the way Trout is hitting that gives us two.
  11. Fletcher, Rengifo, and Urshela don't complement each other on the roster. We just can't carry all three.
  12. Bat speed looks fine, he just has a giant hole in his swing... i.e. his uppercut swing is more uppercutty. He has no chance on fastballs up in the zone.
  13. I never thought of Neto as "pint-sized." Perhaps he wears his pants a bit high, but he's not pint-sized!
  14. One upside to O'hoppe being hurt is the development of Thaiss. Thaiss also has hundreds of games of first-base experience which gives us some needed depth there when O'hoppe returns.
  15. Incredible boon to the club. He's freeing up almost 30 million in payroll that they would have used on signing one of the premium shortstops last offseason.
  16. Exactly! We're strong, thus trade Ohtani, which makes us weak, then we immediately trade back for him!
  17. and Wallach might be the best 4th string catcher in the history of history!!!
