Capital_Dave got a reaction from AngelsLakersFan in Francisco Lindor on the Block
One year of Lindor, when the acquiring team pays all salary? I cannot imagine that it would be all that expensive. It'll cost something meaningful, but we're not talking Brandon Marsh here...

Capital_Dave got a reaction from Angel Oracle in RIP Joe Morgan
I remember about 15 years ago I was having lunch at a restaurant at a golf course in Reno, NV. I heard his distinctive voice at the next table, there was no mistaking it. Looked over and there he was. Couldn't have been nicer when I briefly interrupted his lunch to thank him for some terrific childhood baseball memories.

Capital_Dave reacted to Stradling in RIP Joe Morgan
RIP Joe Morgan, one of the greatest 2B to ever play. The HOF was one of just two players ever with 2500+ career hits, 600+SB and 250+HR

Capital_Dave reacted to Angelsjunky in Trevor Bauer on free agency
It actually would work fine in a 16-game cycle, with Bauer every 4 starts and Ohtani every six:
Bauer, Bundy, Heaney, Canning, Bauer, Ohtani, Bundy, Heaney, Bauer, Canning, Ohtani, Bundy, Bauer, Heaney, Canning, Ohtani...
That's Bauer 4 and everyone else 3. By the end of the season Bauer might have 35-40 starts, Bundy/Heaney/Canning about 30 each, and Ohtani 20-25. Assuming health.
And then it repeats.

Capital_Dave got a reaction from ukyah in Hansel Robles Shouldn't Get to Use His Intro Video...
Hansel Robles shouldn't get to use his intro video if he's not the closer. It seems kinda sad for just some guy in the bullpen to have a hype video like that.
Gotta earn it.

Capital_Dave got a reaction from SlappyUtilityMIF in Tommy La Stella traded to the A's for Franklin Barreto
I like this move. Maybe I'm in the minority. La Stella is a free agent in 2021 so this is a rental for the A's. We get a long term 24 year old prospect who has had very limited playing time and has a 55 prospect score per Fangraphs. Sign me up. Let's see what this kid can do.

Capital_Dave got a reaction from Angel Oracle in Adell and what will he become of this start
Does no one catch the irony of complaining about no Angels prospect ever panning out while we currently have perhaps the best player to ever play the game on our roster as a home-grown prospect?

Speaking of Simmons, remember this play?

Capital_Dave got a reaction from Lou in Gameday Thread: Asterisks @ Angels (8/1/20) - FOX11
Fletcher has such exceptional bat control -- I'm not sure you bunt here, maybe just tell him to hit the ball to the right side and trust him to do it.

As one of the few Angelswin folks in the Eastern Time Zone, I approve of the new extra inning rule.

If Walsh would have made it to 2B we would have the lead right now.
