Good morning Angels fans. Have some links!

Angels News

The brawl last night was epic. Sure, it was bad that Soler got ejected, but it was still fun to watch, and hey, Reylo got ejected as well, so…

Angels Call

Braves Call

Oh yeah, the Angels still lost. Bummer.

At least Jo Adell’s glove is going to the HOF. Nice. Those robberies have made quite a few heads turn, and plenty of Youtube videos.

Around Baseball

Who is good at ABS challenges? Not the Angels, well, outside of Logan that is.

The Giants are not doing well. It is so bad, that there have been 3 clubhouse incidents so far.

Who else is not having a good time? the Blue Jays. They lost again to the Dodgers in a humiliating fashion, the manager gets ejected, Kirk has a broken thumb and had surgery, Scherzer is hurt, and they are 4th in the AL East. At least the fans bought a LOT of hot dogs.

Wait 4th? Who is last in the AL East? The Red Sox. And their fans are chanting “Sell the Team“. Man, if only Angels fans could be that organized.

Anything I missed? Post below for upvotes!

It’s nice to see someone who gets tired of getting drilled up and in and is willing to do something about it! Yeah, I’m looking at you #27.

I don’t mind if Mike doesn’t fight… it’s not his personality. It’s not who he is. He leads in other ways. The key is that somebody needs to be the guy who will throw down and who the other team thinks might actually hurt someone when doing it. In hockey they call this guy “The Enforcer.” When Gretzky was on the Kings that guy was Marty McSorley.

Of course Wayne was not a fighter, but anybody who messed with him would have to face McSorley, who was indeed a tough customer and could knock you out. So, ultimately it is not necessary that every player on the team be ready and willing to fight, but rather it is essential that at least one or two guys are capable and willing to do it.

For this reason I was glad to see Soler do what he did last night, even at the cost of a suspension.

Not Travis. He is a veteran with valuable experience. I know he is cold offensively but I think he has earned at least a few weeks to turn it around. Last season he had some truly clutch hits for us…. Let’s see where he is at near the end of April to first week of May.

With Moncada I am fully onboard with the DFA. He’s a selfish prima donna who damages us with his piss poor defense at the worst possible times.
