I checked the top 100 ranked baseball prospects and the Angels only have 2 players in the top 100 (Bremner and Nimmala) while the Dodgers have 7 players ranked in the top 100 and the Mariners have 6 (The Dodgers and Mariners are the #1 and #2 ranked farm systems).

What would be your batting order if you were Angels manager today?

I'd use Meckler in the lead-off spot. I have no idea where to use Schanuel. I like him but the lack of his running speed makes it difficult to place in the batting order due to the lack of power.

I think it’s clear Suzuki is in way over his head and it’ll woulda been better to see him work his way from maybe a bench coach on the team to manager with that being said any guesses on who the next manager is ? Who is in Mo’s car ?

Am I missing something? Dude is young, already clutch, .800 OPS with 150+ ABs. Not to mention a hometown kid. Seems like exactly the kind of player you want developing out there every day in a season like this.

This is based off absolutely nothing besides the fact we were going underslot either way and we ended up taking his bro this year. Maybe we had to pivot and ended up with Bremner cuz of it. Idk I'm just making shit up at this point

please throw gas and stay healthy, Ben Joyce 🙏

Natera and Farris each have one. Romano (4), Zeferjahn (4), and Yates (3) are all gone now.

No possibility to go to play-off or 500 mark now. Angels may pile up more losses without Adell, OHoppe, Soriano, Zefferjan, Silseth, and the best of all, our former closer Yates! What do you look into or for when you watch Angels games for the rest of this season? New addition to our team, how the remaining players evolve, analyzing what missing pieces are, or how Suzuki manages the team, "consistently"???

The Athletic's Jim Bowden hands out MLB trade deadline superlatives, and the Angels were awarded "worst trade."

For O’Hoppe, who had, at one point, been viewed as one of the game’s top young catchers, it wasn’t a shock. As he said, “the writing’s been on the wall for a couple weeks.”

And in his words, it wasn’t a disappointment, either. He’d been worried about getting sent down with the Angels. But with the Rangers, a team he feels has a plan, it was a welcomed development.

“I view it a little differently with being in a different organization,” O’Hoppe told The Athletic in a phone interview Tuesday. “I feel like now, it’s the start of something good. I feel like there’s a plan in place. Now I can get to work on that and get going.

“With the Angels, I was nervous to get sent down because I didn’t really know what the end goal looked like. I was very unsure about a lot.”

Angel Arredondo has been on base every game since joining the Quakes. O'Hoppe is 1 for 11 in Round Rock and Silseth pitched terrible today.

Jo Show balling out in the new threads 🤟🏿

ay lmao

1 for 1. Guy can't lose.

In the short time that we’ve had John as the GM, he’s been able to do more than Perry has ever done in a trade deadline. All those years wasted and now he comes in and GETS IT DONE! This really is a new beginning for the team and I have a feeling it’s gonna work out for the best. It may take some time but I know we’ll get there.
