Nice to see White Sox build momentum for 2025.

Most teams losing 7-0 pull the starters for the scrubs, Unfortunately, the Angels scrubs are the starters.

I feel bad for the White Sox fans that do not get to see their team make history.  We let them down.  Thanks Arte.

Scrub the scrubs for scrubbier scrubs.

The Angels don't like their own history, so they decided to hate history period.

Even if we got the first pick, whoever we’d pick would be a big flop.

Watch Minasian draft someone ten spots before they should have been, A-GAIN, to draft some maybe HS pitcher in the 11th round, A-GAIN!

[fan_since79]

Will the fans boo their team for not making history?

or LOLpez, I guess.

Either way, he's a joke.

Should NEVER, EEVER be on any MLB roster.

Career .657 OPS, IN THE MINORS!

Minasian, do something about the total lack of depth in this org!!!

You’ve had FOUR years!

[daygloman]

Wow. 

Humiliating.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.

[jsnpritchett]

Congrats to the Angels on setting the team record for losses!

And congrats to Tyler Anderson for tying for the AL lead in losses!

Way to go, fellas!

Sad day in the East Bay. A once-glorious franchise that won 4 world series out of the 5 it had been in since leaving KC closed up shop today and will head to an indefinite stay in a 14,000-seat open air AAA field in Sacramento where it will share alternating homestands with the River Cats.  Not that the Coliseum was anything worthy of MLB after the Raiders got through mutillating the place. That was a million-dollar view of the Oakland Hills which got replaced by that NFL monstrosity. And of course, there were the plumbing problems as the decades went by.

I used to see most Angels' weekend visits to that place when I lived in the Central Valley. The Halos won many of them. Hill Street Blues theme played the fans out of the place when the visitors won while "Celebration"  marked a home win.

Thank goodness the Angels won that finale against Houston. Right now, that 100 would be looming large otherwise.

Swept by the White Sox!!!  In a shutout no less.

At least he did one thing he promised.  They did "run the west down",  down all the way to the bottom.

So I know you won’t answer so I don’t know why I bother, but why the gigantic boner for Nevin? Are you a Fullerton grad? 
 

I wanted him to succeed, but he royally sucked. Keeping him would have been a losing proposition. 
 

No one thought this team was going to be good this year. You don’t win 73 games with the best player in baseball, lose him, replace him with no one and think you’re improving…

I’m not sold on Walsh, but this is a crap team in a crap situation.

We'll see how many Season Seat Holders who re-upped in September 2023, hoping that Ohtani would sign, are going to renew for 2025.  I don't have much faith that there will be the mass exodus that there should be.

Fear not.....the value of the franchise to Arte will go up, regardless.  He won't get one dime from me, and I'm not going to even pay $1 to those who are stuck trying to sell their season seats.  It's a bummer, because I'd like to go see a game, though it's much more comfortable watching them lose from my couch.

How anybody could blame Ohtani for leaving this dumpster fire, is beyond me.  Maybe he can send Trout a postcard from wherever they're playing next week, that says, "Wish You Were Here."
