Ohtani and trades. That's the offseason.

I like how he says great hire in the Washington thread then calls perry a bum GM. The brain power on here recently is next level. 

You probably clap for people who drive when the light turns green. 

Great hire.

Arte's biggest weaknesses is he keeps hiring these bum general managers.

If you remember the Angelswin fanfest, when Percysquints asked Arte a question, you would know why Ng would not be a good fit. 

LOL

She should be president of baseball operations here that's for sure.

Good time to move on from mediocrity.

Nice article and I have to agree on him.

@Tyler you're in Eagle? The other night at the Pixies concert I saw a guy wearing an Angels City Connect jersey with #17 Ohtani. I thought that was an odd thing to wear to a concert especially in Idaho.

Yup.  But that wasn't me I don't own any jerseys.

Absolutely not, if someone wants to pick up Trout's contract and Trout wants to go, sayonara.

Eagle, ID? Nice, me too. 

I could see Boston wanting Trout and eating it all.

Random Trout bomb at the bottom. No need to add it in if it wasn’t true. 
 

I don’t blame the Angels honestly. This guy is consistently unreliable now. 

Can’t stay healthy, I think you do it. 

Hindsight obviously, but not very good managing of a client by the agent.

Great deadline moves, Perry. 

This is a fireable offense. What a trash GM.

Yep, that's when the Angels should have traded him.

That’s when Trout lost his alpha confidence.

Pretty much locks Ohtani up as an Angel. Imagine him having been traded at the deadline….at least this fan base is used to being let down. Superstar player but he does need a lot of care and handling and free rein to do whatever he wants and this organization will definitely do it more than most while giving him the dollar he wants. 
 

This was the risk of not signing the extension. Personally I think this will lock him up as an Angel long term and Arte won’t lowball him too much showing loyalty. 

Same list as yours but I'd add Ward and Thaiss as well. Get rid of the stench of mediocrity. 

Honestly, I'm right there with you now. This is a pathetic bunch.

I like that top 6

Extremely over Sandoval. A couple of above average pitches, but a mental midget. Time to move on from him and see if you can get anything valuable for him in the offseason.

As a leadoff hitter since he has no in-game power yet? How's his glove? 

I didn’t think they would sign Vlad, I didn’t think they’d sign Bartolo, Pujols, Trout, Rendon. This guy wanted Turner last year. 
 

Im not betting against Moreno re-signing Ohtani.
