Didn't we just spend the #8 overall draft pick on a college second baseman?

Termarr is further off, and they’re completely different hitters. Not to mention there is a chance one could move to another position. 

Termarr, Rada, Schanuel…could be a ton of contact/obp potential ahead of the thump of Moore, O’Hoppe.

Ha, exactly what I said earlier. That’d kinda suck.

Ten minutes before the deadline watch us trade for a 34-yr old reliever who was really good about five years ago.

Sorry for the pessimism but our last winning season seems like ancient history.

My source the Philly cheese steak said something is about to happen big

I really don't understand this. But ok. Guess the Angels think he can not suck for them.

It would be the most Angels move ever.

If a player can’t figure it out in the Rays org, there’s a negative 82 percent chance he’ll figure it out in the Angels discount minor league system.

The fact that another team (one who has had some success turning around STL players) is interested is at least a little encouraging. And we are thin in the outfield, especially if Ward goes. Moniak is a similar experiment and it looked great last year, mixed/too early/bad this year. 

It’s just an experiment at this point. I’d like a prospect for Garcia too, but if anyone told me we’d be able to sell Luis Garcia at the deadline for anything I would have been mildly surprised.

If you can get 2 SP for Estevez, surely you can do better than fucking Dylan Carlson for Garcia. 

But what do I know?

Could be overplayed his hand. Rental relief market hasn’t been quite as hot today. 

Any other deadline that seems pretty par the course involving two guys like this.

Perry asleep at the wheel again!

With the Orioles stocking up the rotation, part of kinda wishes we could nab Cole Irvin on the cheap (Pillar?) and bring him back to Anaheim. Seems like he’d be a reasonable gamble for #5 in 2025.

I'm fairly confident that Perry doesn't have a lot of say so in player moves.

I'm fairly confident that's inaccurate.

Are you sure about that with Arte at the helm?

Barnett alone is a good get for Erceg.
