  1. So now Manny Machado is extended through his league age 40 season. He'll wear a Padres cap in Cooperstown. Great. I think it's a great business decision also. Who knows what $34 M looks like in 2033. I mean, ten years from now he will be making $4 M less than Rendon is making this year. I think Machado will age well and have sustained productivity throughout his 30's..
  2. Why? What will reverse your progression and make you wake up to a less mad day. Does Arte need to sell the team for this to happen? What if he keeps the team and the Angels win the World Series? Are you less mad? I am bullish on the Angels this year but it's because of Minasian and Nevin, not Arte.
  3. You should go on ESPN LA radio and explain this to Ireland, Mason, Greg, Travis and Sedano. They are oblivious to all things Angels.
  4. I agree. I don't think the Angels trade Ohtani unless they are completely out of the playoff race in mid-July. And I think it will be difficult for the Angels to even compete to sign him in the off-season unless they are fully committed to going over the CBT threshold. On the positive side they do have $42 M in salary coming off the roster if they decide to part ways with Loup, Tepera, Moore, Renfroe and Urshela. To stay competitive they would need to take $20 M to pay for Ohtani's bump from $30 M to $50 M. and then spread the $22 M raising the floor around him. Maybe they resign Renfroe and/or Urshela but they need some of the young guys to break out in 2024 (Rodriguez, Joyce, Bachman, Adell, Neto, etc.) and replace the veterans who are becoming free agents. When the farm becomes your floor instead of free agency you are headed in the right direction as an organization.
