  1. No one is looking to dump him...we're looking to get value for a player that could potentially walk away for nothing
  2. I fully expect Morales to have a monster offensive season. Safeco will deflate his numbers, but I'm still expecting him to hit 25+ HR's with a .850+ OPS
  3. Or they could've given him a million bucks (which he clearly deserves) and no one would have any room to be bitter.
  4. Whatever that means. Anyway, he's a great GM in terms of baseball management. I don't really care how my GM handles other things. He's done a great job in Texas and has made them into a powerhouse.
  5. Daniels is a phenomenal GM IMO. I'd easily put him in the top 5. Probably top 3
  6. So you agree we were the laughing stock until Trout got here? Ok...Glad we agree
  7. Dude, we were 7-15 in April with a HUGE payroll. We were worse than the Marlins until Trout got here
  8. Don't have a huge problem with the contact play. I have a serious problem with how the Angels use it. In other words, I don't like that we use it every time.
  9. Not being the laughing stock of the league was saved... It's clear we disagree on what the best player in the world should be making in his second year. I'm going to move on now....
  10. Maybe And also my whole argument is that Trout saved the season in terms of making us a contender. Even he couldn't over come the awful April that the team had, but he sure as hell got us close to the playoffs. And he should've been recognized for that IMO
  11. That's cool I guess. Maybe it's just me, but I thought that having some differing opinions is what message boards are all about. At this place I feel like you're constantly put down if you don't care for Scioscia or say anything bad about the Angels.
  12. Salmon was an Angel for life after they paid him well for a second year player...just sayin'
  13. If it's a molehill and not a mountain then why are you still posting in this thread?.
  14. And yet, the best second year player in a generation is making less money in his second year than Tim Salmon 20 years ago. "The business of baseball"...sure
  15. 1. Side with the mob 2. Copy what other people have already posted 3. Never have a real opinion on things, so you can always cover yourself 4. Argue for 18 pages and then accuse other people of arguing for 18 pages 5. Repeat. I can play this game too!
  16. Aside from 2009 and 2002...when was the offense "good" under Hatcher? I can think of a lot of mediocre years, but no real good one's Just did some research. From 2003-2008 it was consistently mediocre. Great in 2009. Awful 2010 and 2011 and the beginning of 2012. I do not classify that a good hitting coach, sorry
  17. Paajarvi does have great upside to be a really good bottom 6 player. Big, good skater. He has all the tools. I remember when people were talking about him as a potential first liner. It's a shame his offense never totally panned out. Hopefully MPS can manage to succeed as a bottom sixer. I think he will. Too talented not to.
  18. Yeah, I like people responsible to be held accountable. I don't like to miss the playoffs year in and year out without any changes...You got that one right. Took 9 years of bad offense to finally fire Hatcher... I don't want to get into this again because it'll only end with me getting warning points for having a different opinion by the message board dictators or whatever you want to call them
  19. So if we lose 95 games with a 150 million dollar payroll you think Scioscia should be back because of his contract? I swear...some of you guys might not even care about winning as long as Scisocia stays. I'd like to think that Trout saved Scioscia's job. Because if Scioscia was staying even if this team loses 90+ games, then I would've lost even more faith in the FO
  20. I won't even address Lifetime. That guy is going to defend the Angels on anything. He defended Hatcher and Reagins on the Wells trade...nuff said
  21. Then why are you still here arguing with me about it? Go ahead and ignore my posts if you have a problem bro...
