I believe Ohtani will stay on the West Coast.  So, Angels, Dodgers, Giants.  I believe he'll stay.

You read it would take Sandoval, Caden Dana, and Nelson Rada from Halos Hangout.  Give credit to the source, please. 

Yamamoto would be a nice add.  And no subtraction of the talent that is already here.  
I'd like to think we're in on Yamamoto.

None of these guys with the exception of maybe Diekman will add any value or even have a spot to contribute.
Outfielders: Trout, Ward, Moniak, Adell and Rengifo can play the OF as well
Infielders: Schanuel, Drury, Rengifo, Neto, Rendon, Stefanic, Fletcher.
Pitchers: Sandoval, Detmers, Canning, Silseth, Anderson, Daniel, Suarez. 
You need to study our roster and needs a little closer @Angels 1961. 
Stop dumbing down my Hot Stove SZN.

I'd rather pay $25-$29 million per year for 25-year old Yamamoto for the long term.

If we can sign Snell, then it is possible that we could use one of Canning or Sandoval in a Burnes trade, IMO.  
I wouldn't be against getting Yelich if one of Ward, Moniak, or Adell is moved. 

Was that Ippei sitting next to Yamamoto?  One can only hope. 

We really need an ace.  We have a lot of number 3 types, and guys that have shown flashes of potential, like Detmers and Canning.  
Snell is an ace.  Yamamoto is a wild card, but he's 25 yoa, with plus stuff, and not connected to draft pick compensation, or the talent swaps involved in trades.  

We already have a lot of guys like Lugo.  I would like Snell or Yamamoto.

The big problem with a six man rotation is that almost no team has either the depth or the quality to sustain it.  
What the Angels should be doing is building up their best 5 starters to go a little deeper into the games, so that the bullpen is not getting destroyed by all of the extra innings it is asked to absorb.  
If they want to run 6 guys out there, we should be ready for another all pitcher draft, or two.

Comeback player of the year award, 150 games, 45 HR, 135 RBI.

Even though Mike Trout has a full no-trade clause, can someone who has ESPN insider paraphrase the contents of the article suggesting a Trout trade to the Phillies?  
It would be nice to go over what the east coast writers think would be fair value for Trout.

I would put our chances at slightly above average.

It's something to keep an eye on, but just because he wasn't good DHing in his 20s doesn't mean he's going to be bad DHing in his 30's. I would not be surprised if many superstars experienced similar splits early in their careers versus later on. 

I think he should start spending time in one of the corners this year though. Moniak's CF defense seemed pretty solid.
 
This.  Trout to LF, Moniak in CF, Ward or Adell in RF, and use the DH for all 4 of the OF and Rendon, depending on matchups, hot or cold bats, etc. 

Chris Rodriguez is now available in the Rule V draft, right?

JMO, with the manager and coaching staff that we are putting together, I don't think that Bauer would be an issue.

Wow.  You would pay a 30-year old SS who had 1 HR in 2023 12-15 million?  And, you would give away Drury, 26, and Rengifo, 16 HR?  
If you think we had trouble scoring runs this year, and that move gets made, 2024 will revert back to the 70's.
