Morning Angels fans, have some links.

Angels News

The Angels lost again, for the 81st time this season. Best they can do now is 81-81, another non winning season for the Halos.

Angel Stadium’s condition is unknown, although likely rather bad. The investigation into the condition started in 2023 and has yet to show any results.

Logan O’Hoppe was not having a good time on the Angels. He blames himself, but Sports Journalism sucks these days.

Around Baseball

Dodgers in some theoretical hot water. After their massive TV deal when they got their current owners, they had 1.5 Billion in debt.

Also, if the Dodgers are in need of cash and sell (doubtful, but speculated) Ohtani has in his contract an escape clause to leave the team. Then again it is Plaschke, so it is likely wrong.

What is true is that the Dodgers are one of 5 teams teaming up with a gambling site. MLB has really dropped the ball when it comes to being moral, at all.

Look, we all hate Arte, but remember, he isn’t the worst owner in MLB history. It can always be worse…

Time to vote on the best weird food at MLB ballparks! Some of these are certainly better than others.

Bieber back on the IL. Blue Jays really riding on Soriano now.

Giants had 2 players go out with a UCL at the same time. That is messed up.

Mets cheapen out, bait customers and instead of a Snoopy Plushie, it will be a shirt. Scummy behavior.

Anything I missed? Post below for upvotes!

If I were the pitching coach, I would have a batting practice pitcher throw everything chest high and up. Then have batter tell you if it was high or a strike.

The politicians, who have no clue about construction, development, etc., have made a complete mess of the Angels Stadium issue. Who the hell hires a company out of Missouri, which is not even in our seismic zone, to do an assessment of the stadium when world class engineering firms are right here in So Cal! This firm must have bamboozled them with their marketing dept. I can tell you that The Angels replaced the structure under all the seats in the sections above and to the side of the bullpen area about 6 years ago. Problem for the city is, The Angels have to do the upkeep, but the bldg was built in the 1960s! Building codes change every 3 to 4 years or after a major seismic event. You do the math. And the City is liable for those upgrades. Politicians will screw up up project and grind it to a halt almost every time. That report should have been complete in a year, but they probably ran out of money in the budget at the Missouri firm so they slowed down to a “when we have extra time” pace.

I will virtually never vote for a local person that has real estate, building, or developing as their core work. Now – I’ll take them over a tax and spender – but if it’s down to a choice of two similar people – I’m going to try and find someone not tied in to those areas. My family saw a devaluing zoning change because they thought we would sell and they wanted to pick up the property (actually approached us to buy within 30 days of the change) just to name a few. I guarantee you – they would have sat on it and got it changed back later.

Even in a small, very small town in Texas, the city council voted to pay $1 million to a consulting firm to see if we need a loop around the city. Not to build it. Just to see if we need it.

If you want an example of an oxymoron, look up “honest politician.”

Give me 8 Steven Kwan’s on the field and I’ll see you at the World Series. I think he might be the most underrated guy in baseball. Love watching that guy play. The top three of the Indian’s lineup are really fun to watch hit.
