This team gets shitter and shitter by the second.
 
I'd ask when baseball starts again but that's not giving us much to look forward to either.

Dude give me a freaking break... You're comparing Eric Stamets who hasn't made one start in the major leagues to the best Defesnive shortstop in the game? This overrating of Angels prospects has become comical to the point that I don't even take anything you say seriously anymore. Yes, it can be argued that it was a questionable use of resources but the Angels FO obviously thinks the bat is going to be better than we are giving him credit for. Let's see how it plays out before it's considered a "severe overpay" did it suck to lose Aybar, Ellis, AND Newcomb? HELL YEAH but when there were fifteen teams going after the guy there is obviously something more to him than Eric Stamets.

Chapman's career ERA as a reliever is 2.29 in 319 innings.
 
Babe Ruth as a starter 2.28 in 1,221 innings.
 
When Chapman hits 714 home runs then let's make a comparison.

Great, now we have a 1st base coach that is going to wave the runner to second after a walk.

WTF

To be fair, 1986 and 1995 were pretty terrible.

You know I am a Dipoto supporter right? No of course not because "fans" like you have determined that one guy is good (Dipoto) and one guy is bad (Sosh), You can go back to the Dipoto threads, and I guarantee you will see that I wanted to keep Jerry and not Mike. But this team lacked talent, and the stats back me up on that. Continue to say dumb stuff, you are good at it. This isn't a veiled shot at you, this is an actual shot at you, you are incredibly stupid on here.

Not gonna lie, this is one of those seasons that makes you want to just find another team to watch.  Been watching this team for 40 years now, and i don't recall a stretch of years that have left me less happy about being a fan of the club.  So much promise, so much potential, and in the end even with a solid stretch run we are left unfulfilled, under achieving, and basically looking like a monkey f#@$king a football.   I do not get how it went so bad so fast, i truly don't, it just makes no sense.  So many bad moves made by so many people in so many areas.
I think i liked this club better when we acting like middle market, a least then we knew what we were, these last few years of trying to be large market large payroll behemoths have resulted in this?  We talk a big game but we don't seem to want to back it up.  Its inexcusable to me that the club stepped up to make some big dollar signings then when we got close to the luxury tax suddenly got penny wise.  As much as any under achieving player i feel the front office failed at least as bad in recent years.   ...and i wont even talk about the manager, its so far past tie for a change here.
 
In the immortal words of Jack Nicholson's Joker, This club needs an enema. 
 
I'll never give up being a fan of this club but right now its very hard to have any hope for the next few seasons unless Arte finds his wallet in a major way and we get a GM with a brain that can tell Sven where to get off. 

Let me know when Weaver wasn't pissed about something or other.

NO way...doesn't he know he is never going to have another job in baseball?

Travolta looks an old Latvian woman

I still would.

If Trout was being Trout, this team could be leading the division. His fall off has killed this team

Its funny we used to complain about Mickey Hatcher telling guys to be aggressive early in counts.  Now everyone refuses to hit the first pitch even if its right down the middle

When it comes to in-game work ethic and real-time strategy adjustments.
 




 
 

 
 

 

 

 

Maybe Trout knows he's about done.

No what I mean is the Panthers owner just bought the team and says he will not move them.  Even though the Panthers are the logical team to move.
