Now that it's in the books, here's some final Ohtani numbers: https://twitter.com/bmags94/status/1577799939601862656 I said he might be the best player in the world last offseason even with Mike Trout on his team but wasn't entirely convinced. Since he not only did it again but better, yeah I'm convinced now. Sucks he won't get an MVP for it this year.

bees x1000 posted:There's a lot of little and big things I don't like about the Angels, but the Nevin hire is breaking my brain. This is blatant punting and really hard to spin as anything other than wasting another year of Trout and Ohtani. Hiring a lame duck guy does make some sense with ownership being in future limbo but I'd guess he has the locker room otherwise why not go with basically anyone else in house. Except Jeremy Reed, gently caress that guy

Intruder posted:Rizzo should opt out because the Yankees are going to be bad when Judge signs with the Angels nobody will know who to vote for when Trout, Ohtani and Judge play on a team that's 30 something games below .500

Joe Maddon has some more thoughts: https://www.si.com/mlb/2022/10/06/joe-maddon-tom-verducci-book-excerpt quote:In 2022, though, Maddon never made it to the ballpark with his mohawk. Angels GM Perry Minasian arrived at Maddon’s front door and rang the bell. Maddon answered and invited him in. Minasian did not immediately notice the mohawk. If he did, he said nothing about it. He appeared uncomfortable. LOL Johnny Bravo fucked around with this message at 00:05 on Oct 7, 2022 |

Red posted:Really? Between Trout and Ohtani, a few average starters should be enough to get them close to a wild card. Ward and Fletcher are good, too. the starters were fine this year, it was mostly the offensive production falling off a cliff coupled with above average bullpen meltdowns that tanked the season. they were keeping pace with the Yankees for the first third and the last third of the year but that middle part when they went like 10-40 was historically bad and it wasn't because of the starting pitching, imo rendon missed most of the year again, trout missed time on top of playing hurt for like a month, walsh struggled all year just to find out he had TOS, fletcher missed a lot of time as well

Intruder posted:he's going into his age 33 season and will be making $36 million, then for the following four years $38 million i think there's a real strong chance that any deal involving Rendon would have to include Ohtani and talent going back the other way just to eat the contract. and somehow its still not as bad (yet) as if they had signed Strasburg instead like a lot of people wanted

STAC Goat posted:Is Boone successful at these things? I dunno. A lot of that comes down to stuff we flat out don't know like what the organization wants or how the lockerroom is. Is Severino talking to the media upset that Holmes wasn't used failure of 2? Maybe. I guess that depends on how it was resolved. Is it a failure of 3 that Boone didn't operate as the buffer for Sev's understandable frustrations? Is it a failure of 1 where the organization did think Holmes was their closer when its clear Boone didn't use him that way in the postseason? I don't know the answers to these question. One thing I do think gets glossed over regarding the Severino comments is that he's likely got a bone to pick with the FO due to being placed on the 60 day himself. If they're saying Holmes couldn't go and Holmes is implying he could, I can understand why Severino would have some thoughts on the matter.

Inspector_666 posted:I thought it was just that you can only get one QO in your career, not that you had to get it at a specific point. Yeah, that's right. You can only get a QO once and you have to be on the team roster for the entire season to be eligible. Rizzo couldn't receive a QO last year because he went to New York via trade, for example. the QO is also going to be around until the end of the current CBA at least because of MLB and the players association missing the deadline on their international draft deal a few months ago

it's pretty funny to fire your GM right after winning a world series but the Astros will probably be fine. he came over from TB to replace Luhnow and they didn't really miss a beat. how much of that is because James Click is a great GM or because the Houston Astros have built a strong baseball operation remains to be seen, I guess, but I lean towards Click benefiting from inheriting a really good core/structure and not Click building one

Gobias Ind. posted:Ben Nicholson-Smith is a Jays writer/reporter. Not sure where Maryland is coming from. Baltimore is in Maryland and it was one vote keeping it from being unanimous so it had to be the work of a homer jerk and not a writer with a valid reason in an entirely different market. In other words, Maryland had nothing to do with it other than pretenses Julio should have won (and rightfully did!) but Adley had a much closer case than people are wanting to admit, imo Johnny Bravo fucked around with this message at 15:55 on Nov 15, 2022 |
