I agree that the kids are not enough to put the club over the top. The last time the Angels were legitimately within the World Series window, Arte paid for Pujols, Wilson and Hamilton. We all know how those signings turned out. I think there are many challenges ahead for the Angels financially. Ohtani may cost just as much as Trout in the future, Adell will not be cheap if he develops into the player we all would like him to be. I can see Arte having a team salary in the top 5 within 5 years. I think the kids will be the deciding factor for success and not the free agents. Based on no connections to the organization, I predict that the highest salaries on the Angels in the next 5 years will be paid mostly to homegrown players. Arte said he wanted to be like the Yankees, his window is beginning to open and with the free agents available next year, I expect Arte to begin spending again.

...and still healthy which negates the positive.

If you watch the replay closely, there appears to be something unusual happening at the grassy knoll.

I think he has orchestrated two grand slams this season..... both for the Astro’s. I think he can do a couple more before the end of the season.

Looked like pass interference to me.

He probably pitched the best of all the pitchers today. Not sure why anyone would think that.

Terry Smith droning on about cruise ship destinations in Mexico as play continues......

That is 3 too many games for Pujols to play.

Not sure a week is enough time for anyone other than sociopaths to get on with it.

No. Hell no. F*ck no.

Harvey would have better luck looking for his missing velocity in the lost and found box.

I stand corrected..... 2 IP 2 Hits 1 BB 0 Runs It would be nice to have more 0's.

Cahill struggling pitching to a team with one of the worst offenses in MLB......this should not be considered progress.

It's a tie...both are equally irrelevant at this time.

I hope to never see Cahill in another tied game.

I voted. Suggesting that Gary Sanchez is an All Star catcher is an oxymoron. Lucroy looks like a defensive wizard compared to Sanchez. I thought position players also needed to be at least defensively competent to be an All Star.

Maybe put Lucroy in the stands to protect the fans from foul balls?

No.

But don't you use a reliever to allow the starter to get that extra inning? To me and my simple mind, the result is the same except that the inevitable reliever is being front-loaded.

Based on that few runs, it is definitely not Cahill.

HOF power.......You can keep him, St Louis.

They are cheering because they know he is an easy end of inning.
