  1. We live in an era now where the front office has all the power. They even pick the coaching staff. In the past, the manager did that. They even play a bigger role in the lineup, batting order, etc. I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not - but given most GM’s didn’t play the game at a high level, it concerns me. With that power comes great responsibility. If things aren’t working, they need to be held accountable.
  2. Actually… more than anything else, Stoneman and Scioscia changed the organization’s culture. That needs to happen again. I just don’t have any confidence the current leadership can do that. After all, Arte and his leadership team created this current culture…
  3. The last time the Angels had an owner, GM and manager who were on the same page, they won a World Series. The owner (Disney) got out of the way and the the manager and GM transformed the organization into a winner. After that trio went their separate ways, the organization became dysfunctional over time and here we are. Mike Scioscia and Bill Stoneman don’t get enough credit for transforming the organization. Disney didn’t get enough credit for letting them. I have no idea how the Angels get back to that level of success, the way it’s currently constructed and managed.
  4. He’ll have 5 good games, sign an extension and then have TJ surgery.
  5. Today’s 20 K’s was the Angels version of “hold my beer” in response to this thread.
  6. Wow. Jessica and their son too?
  7. We fix it by soliciting the advice of the guys on AW.
  8. That's a new franchise high for a 9 inning game! Historical!
  9. Houston, Miami and Baltimore are all teams Villar played on and the three teams the Angels are playing and about to play.
  10. Ohtani must feel bad for Trout. He had to show him how to drive in a run. Poor Trout
