Talk about a meltdown, 17 loses in a row was it? Now losing Rendon. Crazy.

And though his wrist has been problematic, this was a bit of a surprise.

I know folks have mentioned the Angels as a trade partner before wonder if this improves compatibility.

combined .252 average with the Halos, 20 HR/89 RBI .780 OPS in 155 games '20-'22 and owed $38.57m for each of the next 4 years. The Halos may have money to burn, but they are wasting Trout and Ohtani.

the Angels also waste most of their draft picks.. it was sheer luck that Trout ended up in southern california... and money coupled with geography that got Otani.. everything else is true..

A deal with the Angels.. would be truly one sided.. whoever is dumb enough to fall in love with someone within their organization not named Trout or Ohtani...

Perry Minasian might be able to fix the club.. he's off to a pretty good start... but it's going to take a lot more than a trading deadline deal..
 
How about Amed as an Angel? Doesn't seem that their other options are performing at ss/3b outside of what Rendon was producing.

Anything make sense?

The question is, are they going to be buying or selling if they keep struggling?

They should get Fletcher back eventually, but if they aren't going to be in it, why spend the prospects to get Amed? It may be smarter to flip a bat like Walsh, for prospects than to trade for Amed...
 

Major League Baseball goes back a long way, but it had never seen — and may never see again — what unfolded Wednesday at Globe Life Field.
The visiting Houston Astros threw not one but two immaculate innings.

After starter Luis Garcia struck out all three Texas Rangers batters on just nine pitches in the second inning in Arlington, Tex., reliever Phil Maton took the mound to start the seventh and turned the same trick.
Making the sequence all the more noteworthy was that the Houston pitchers victimized the same three Texas batters: Nathaniel Lowe, Ezequiel Duran and Brad Miller.

According to MLB.com, this was the first time in major league history that two immaculate innings were pitched on the same day, let alone in the same game.
 
Thinking about wildcard spots, might not be as hard to get if we don’t win our division, those top 4 teams in the east going to beat each other up, and knock 1 or 2 of them out the race, of course NY going to win that division…….Toronto and Rays are losing tonight……
 
2013 1st overall pick, Mark Appel was called up by the Phillies. Quit baseball in 2017 and came back last year. Was one of only 3 overall #1 picks to never make the big leagues, but you can take him off that list now. Cool story.

Just find it humorous how terrible 2013 was for having the #1 pick in any sport. Was the 2013 MLB draft as shitty as the NFL and NBA drafts?
