Angels Baseball Chatter

Here to talk Halos baseball!

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

Angel tickets are always worth the price. You always get a bottom of the 9th.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

Kirby Yates blows another save.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

@YoungHalos There are many more in the past and the present. Bottom line, if you sign one of those big contracts, you are expected to perform day in and day out for years.

And when you consistently aren’t performing, you should not be surprised when the fans side with the owners.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

The players association wants more teams like the San Diego Padres, who have just been handing out tons of money.

At some point, this is all going to look really bad for the Padres.

[Nyanasaur @Nyanasaur]

7 years and $280M in cash left on his contract after this season by the way. With zero opt outs and a full no trade clause

It's ~$31.8 AAV but $40M cash every year until the end of 2033

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

@CodifyBaseball Nevermind those AAA players that already do this.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

@YoungHalos Players are consistently hurting their case by preaching their value, signing contracts like this, and then just not performing. It’s crazy to me.

Machado
Pujols
Rendon
Boegarts
Stanton
Tatis
Cano
K Bryant

The list goes on and on and one. Way more bad contracts than good ones.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

@Nyanasaur And they say “Don’t suppress our wages. It’s bad for players!”

HERO ⬇️

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

Jo Adell has more hits against the Dodgers today than Mike Trout does the past 4 seasons.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

@KirkHinrichSzn He doesn't. He's an all-star this year.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

The last game isn't even done yet, but Mike Trout is 1-21 with 6 Ks and 0 BBs against the Dodgers this year.

We love him, but we all know the truth. The higher the competition, the more he shrinks back.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

Has Kirby Yates done anything for us? I swear every time he comes in he ruins the game.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

Angels have already had three missed calls overturned in tonight's game.

Imagine this game before ABS and replay. Sheesh.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

I just got an email to vote for Angels players for the All-Star game.

Mike Trout is the only one deserving. That's it.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

SALARY CAP NOW

These guys suck.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

Jo Adell just took a catchable fly ball off the head and it deflected over the fence for a home run.

That’s not a joke.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

@GLNslider I don’t blame him for saying yes. I blame him for not fulfilling his side of the bargain. And raising salaries for other players that don’t deserve it.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

It's really important that we as fans speak out on how we feel about the labor negotiations. Players and owners are watching.

I watched Anthony Rendon steal $245M from the Angels for absolutely nothing and cripple our franchise.

I don't ever wanna see that again.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

@GLNslider When Arte signed Rendon, he was the best 3rd baseman in baseball. How were the Angels supposed to foresee what happened?

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

@GLNslider He also made $38M for two consecutive years while doing absolutely nothing. In any other profession you get fired for that.

There are many other stories like that. Those types of players don't deserve raises or big time contracts.

[Angels Baseball Chatter @ChatterAngels]

@loxeard The cap has nothing to do with baseball. It’s about it being good for baseball.
