    @yk9001 is sensitive.  Your overzealous display of emotions are not welcoming to gentle souls who bristle at such expressions of frustration.  @Chuckster70 should seriously consider adding a "safe space" for those who need a quiet and stress-free AW experience.
    As far as I am concerned, keep up the good work.

    Good for him but I don't really care that he's figured it out with the Rays/Twins.  When he was with us, he was inconsistent and failed on multiple occasions to justify his continued existence in the line-up and on the roster.  
    After he started hot his rookie season, he nose-dived the final half of the year.  In 2015, He was given April, May, and bits of June to do something and he hit .192 .220 .480 OPS in 37 games and 121 PA's.  In 2016, he seemed to turn a corner somewhat but, realistically, you want more than .278 .325 .792 OPS 2.0 WAR in 116 games from a DH playing 1B.  In 2017, he was given the starting job at DH and responded to everyday starts in April by hitting .233 .277 .544 OPS...came back in May and through early July he was hitting .213 .265 .568 OPS.  He finally caught fire in July and August but still could only manage .248 .305 .741 OPS after 4 seasons and going into age 28.
    With Pujols at 1B and Ohtani at DH, his existence was redundant.  There was no other play in Feb 2018 when he was sent to the Rays for Rengifo.

    OK, let's try a little perspective. 
    The Rays paid him $2.5 mill last season and were so impressed him, even with his club control for two more seasons, they waived him. Didn't even trade him, just let him go. For free. 
    But, obviously the Angels should have valued him more... Oh wait, they at least got a player for him.

    Stroman has the mental strength of a 12-year-old.
    Which is why NOBODY will be bidding for him during the next six weeks.

    You guys can't be this dense. It's obvious they are being cautious with him.

    It also sucks that Dipoto hadn't previously traded him away.

    The only way someone could have better stats is if a neo-nazi joined the Angelswin political board.
