They do?
I have to say I think it's refreshing to hear a former insiders opinion that isn't swayed by the team, which is what we get with any interview from anyone within the organization, and it comes off oblivious and its frustrating to hear over and over. For once we're getting an opinion from a guy who was pretty much straightforward the entire time we had him, who is familiar with this type of situation, and doesn't have to kiss Angels' ass anymore! And while I'd say I don't agree with everything he said in that article, I'd say his assessment is more accurate than anything we've gotten from an Angel over the past 3 years.
Even Trumbo last-night stumbled a bit last night during the post game interview when he almost muttered "not playing good baseball," he kinda backtracked and was thinking what he was supposed to say. The guys on this team aren't allowed be straight forward and honest about what's happening on the field, they sugar coat the negatives and it's getting old.
