Damn don't how how I missed that, Victor as GM here would have been awesome! Maybe someday he can get a big league GM gig after his AA executive job.

Victor interviewed for the Angels GM job?

Love Victor, it's a shame he only got to announce one good season, 2014.

Howie has always seemed like one of the good guys. A total class act here, was sad to see him go. Glad he got to be a hero in the 2019 playoffs and finally get that ring.

If the Red Sox would eat most of the salary, Chris Sale. A big question mark health wise, but he's 31 and has ace upside. Noah Syndergaard is another who just had Tommy John and is younger. This also might sound ridiculous since we could have just signed him last year, but if the Blue Jays are out of the playoffs quick, maybe a trade for Ryu. If we sign Bauer, Corey Kluber might be worth a look as a high risk/high reward #2 starter if he's non-tendered. The key is though to make someone like Kluber a supplementary signing, rather than the only pitching acquisition of the offseason like Ep

It's been tough to get into baseball in general in the last few weeks. I put on Quick Pitch every day on MLB Network to keep up, and tune into other games as well in addition to part of Angels games, and with the lack of fans and crazy rule/playoff changes it's hard to get invested. It starts to kind of feel like a chore, and that is on top of the game seeming to lose a lot of its fun in the last few with with the analytics era. I still love the game of baseball at its core though, and hopefully the Angels can get better and rekindle that flame for us.

The only options should be yes and hell yes.

This could be a good way to bring him back to the organization to recreate the Scioscia/Maddon 2002 dynamic in a new way. Also, he looks damn good in a suit.

They don't realize it, but they're helping get POTUS reelected by doing this.

The defense is what is really troubling. Trout came up for a cup of coffee in 2011 and clearly wasn't ready yet as a hitter, but his defense was solid.

The Keuchel deal is fair, also this year is prorated. If you get good production from Keuchel even just 2 out of the 3 years, that's a fantastic contract. Ryu is pricier and more of a risk, but again, if you get 2 good years, I'd see that as a far better value than 5 years and $100 million of Justin Upton. We haven't had a starting pitcher who had good numbers at the end of the season since 2015, so maybe one of these two would have been worth it, with neither going over 4 years?

Keuchel 2.65 ERA 4-2 Ryu 3.19 ERA 2-1 Nice work Eppler!
