    Adam reacted to Inside Pitch in Trading Ohtani even if they are in it?   
    I too wonder if putting so much into one guy won't be a mistake.  In some ways having him limits the things the team can do at DH -- he's great and all that but for how long, and as long as he's around the issue persists.
    The flip side obviously -- they aren't likely to get anything remotely as good as he is as either a pitcher or hitter in return, much less both.
    Anyway, if Im being honest, I can't say I'm 100% certain there is any right move other than try to win while he's here.  It's a weird spot to be in.

    I think re-signing him at the variables discussed - 10/500 would a.) almost certainly prove to be an awful investment production per dollar and b.) would pretty much destroy any flexibility the team has moving forward.
    I only don't trade him if I feel the team has a 20+% chance at making the ALCS. They likely have a lower chance than that of actually making the postseason
    He also presents an opportunity to establish a level of organizational depth through trade that they haven't had in many years

    I read that they moved the pre & post game inside because on a post game show , fans were yelling " Sell the team".

    He needs a steady diet of high/inside fastballs in the batting cage if they expect his days off to help.

    Whoever posted that should have been paying closer attention -- he's been posting a near career high exit velocity all season, his launch angle had been near a career low -- now it's back to his career average, EXACTLY his career average.
    Entering today's game his average exit velocity was sitting at 91.0 -- the best it's been since 2016.

    Dude is posting elite performances in five offensive categories and the low barrel numbers are indicative of how he kept topping balls early on.
    Last 14 games he's gone .294/.429/.392
    Last 10 games he's gone .371/.522/.486
    He's one of the last people on the team fans need to be worrying about.

    You can't go wrong with Turtle.  Not surprisingly my options were pretty limited finding decent quality gif's for a 30+ year old movie that the were probably more VHS copies of than DVD's floating around of.

    I disagree, I think he can hit anywhere between 2 and 39 homers.

    I generally agree with this line of thinking. Unfortunately the bullpen is so void of talent that it is difficult to imagine the Angels hanging around

    They'd be crazy NOT to trade him if he doesn't commit to the Angels soon. We're not contenders and an infusion of young talent would be better than an Ohtani who walks at seasons end.

    They should trade him regardless of what their record is vs. give him 10/500 - that would be retarded
