I don't like losing streaks either but this place goes ape shit over a blip in a very long season.

Yep.

Dick-pic Mick? No thanks. He only lasted 33 games in Mexico...

They had one good team in those 9 years. And that year we got swept because he told Trout and Albert to not get hits in the first two games. 

Bastard.

I'm as big a Scioscia fan as anyone, but I would be absolutely shocked if he came back to manage this team.  I think it's wishful thinking for many fans.  At some point, we all need to move on.

If Axl Rose and Slash could just. . . .

8 straight losses isn't really a "blip". Nor is the team's 3-12 record over the last 15 games. I believe they're 4-16 over the last 20.

They won't play like this all year, but it's definitely not good.

Exactly!!!

I guess the last several seasons are just a blip too.  Because this is basically rinse and repeat.

maybe the hot start was the blip?

I don’t think its a blip.  At the same time what happened in any year prior to that has zero bearing on this year.  Fans like to dwell on that stuff but teams certainly don’t.

I think it's the way they are blowing games in late inn. After 6 straight losing seasons fans begin to worry here we go again.

Oh I don’t think he is coming back.  This tangent started with the premise of “if Madden quit or was fired mid season”.  If that happened then Scioscia would absolutely be my choice.  It isn’t going to happen.  Madden isn’t going to quit nor will he be fired and Scioscia isn’t walking through those doors as the Angels manager again.  My understanding is there is bad blood there.

Anyway halos can get Bob Melvin from San Diego?

Is Perry familiar with Ron Washington?

Washington had a three-peat.

 

And he brings the rock candy.

I don’t think he’ll come back either. I’d be shocked, but very happy if he returned.

Sosh coming back would definitely make this place 20x more entertaining.

Schwarber homered to put the Angels down 1-0 in the first in 6/03 game. Ward made a nice sliding catch in the right corner.

Starting to think this is becoming more and more realistic.

If Sosh was so great, please explain why he's never even had an interview for a managerial position, or front office position with any other major league ballclubs? Old retreads like Baker, Showalter, LaRussa, etc... have had no problem finding work. He hasn't even had an interview.

Because he’s retired, numb nuts
