Junkballer got a reaction from Slegnaac in Taylor Ward - Knocked back to his old self?
It's totally a thing. I saw it with my own eyes on Gilligan's Island. Skipper concussed, got amnesia, concussed again, memory came back. Science!

I haven't seen that episode, but I'm betting a coconut was involved!

Junkballer reacted to PattyD22 in Gameday Thread (4/1/24 3:40pm Bally Sports SoCal): Angels @ Marlins: Silseth on the mound, Moniak, Thaiss starting
I don’t care if the Marlins aren’t a good team. The Angels showed some heart and clawed their way back after a dreadful first inning. They could have absolutely derailed, but they didn’t.
It wasn’t perfect by any stretch, but I’ll take it.

Who said Trout would have 50 dingers and 56 rbis? That may not be that far off.

Junkballer reacted to EDinTUSTIN in Gameday Thread (3/30/24 @ 1pm Pacific): Angels @ Orioles: Canning on the mound
I met Hud personally. It must've been around 2009 or so. I was coaching a 7th and 8th grade boys team in 8-on-8 flag football, and we were practicing at Pioneer Park in Tustin. Hud was there with a small party, and he ambled on over where my team was practicing to watch. I recognized him right away and just said, "Well, Hud. What do you think, is my team a winner?" He shook my hand, complimented my team, and took the time to chat with them. He couldn't be nicer. This was the time when Manny was a FA, so I asked him what he thought. He got animated and enthusiastic and started talking how Manny and Vlad would be great. He was the same as we all would her him on an Angels' broadcast.
I enjoyed the conversation immensely. I thanked him for spending some time with us, and he thanked me for taking time to coach kids. He was very genuine. He is one of the good ones for sure. He is also a fairly big, strong looking person. I again ran into him at the Tustin City Hall complex about a year later. He greeted me by name and inquired about how my team did.

Junkballer got a reaction from halodground in A true #1 pitcher
Yes. They have the potential to have 2,3,3,3,4 but 3,3,4,4,5 is more realistic.

Junkballer reacted to Angelsjunky in A true #1 pitcher
That's basically it, with the caveat that depth of #2-3s was more correlative of WS championships than a top-heavy rotation...but this doesn't mean that those with both weren't even better off.
In other words, A is usually better than B, even though both sets add up to 15:
A: 2, 3, 3, 3, 4
B: 1, 2, 4, 4, 4
Meaning, all other things being equal, a high floor is more important than a high ceiling. Obviously the both is the best of all worlds.
And thanks!
