  1. This was also talked about in the interviews. The sense I got is that it takes a lot of great minds to put the best possible team on the field, but it is key to have that one guy at the top. And that team is trying to find an edge every single day. I don't know if Minasian is THE guy, and I'm skeptical he can turn things around before Trout is past his best days. I think there is a good possibility the next few years are painful. I hope I'm wrong. Arte swung and missed on Dipoto and to some degree on Eppler. Maybe Minasian is a genius. Maybe he's the next Andrew Friedman. I guess we'll find out.
  2. NLCS. great so far… 2-5 more episodes ahead. I’ll let you know how it turns out.
  3. I don’t have any reason to believe Suzuki wouldn’t make a good coach. The guy had a long career and played on some pretty good ball clubs. There are worse ideas…
  4. It’s amazing how far the Braves have come, considering all the injuries they’ve had.
  5. I heard Alex Anthopoulos interviewed today. He said by the time his time ended in Toronto he was finally figuring things out and when he went to the Dodgers it was like going to graduate school and a great place to keep learning. Jim Bowden said it took him about 9-10 years to know what he was doing. Yes, I know he’s an idiot… but… it begs the question - how long is Minasian’s learning curve going to be? Is he capable of taking the Angels to where they need to be? The Angels/Arte continues to hire first-time GM’s and perhaps that’s not a good thing. Stan Karaden was also interviewed and he talked a lot about how everyone from the ownership to the front office to the coaches and players have to be on the same page. They use as much data as possible to find any possible edge, every game. Sounds obvious, right? Well, the Angels haven’t had that in some time. It makes me wonder if they’ll ever get there?
  6. How does giving one or zero games off prevent bullpen games?
  7. I would think he'd be a candidate for either the Padres or Mets.
  8. It wouldn't bother me as much, if I didn't hate the Astros so much.
  9. I'm a bot created by gotbeer. I'm programmed to respond anytime gotbeer posts.
  10. We set the trap... and you come along and do this!
