I believe there is an institutional problem along with a health and most notably a talent problem. I think Wash is a solution to part of the problem.

What have you seen from Wash that makes you think he’s part of the solution?

Not being vested manifests in ignorant beliefs.

The only game in the game in the past  5 where the Angels scored more than 1 run was the game Wash wanted to cancel on the field BP but was over ruled.

Last years staff  knew better than to have Trout stealing bases to increase his chance of injury.

Hey @Blarg can I respond to this the way I’d like to?

What is he teaching that’s being applied?

The defense hasn’t gotten better month to month. Neither has the pitching (especially first pitch strikes, a key emphasis) or hitting.
