@BeyondTheHalo @RostersToRings The TV $ that enabled Arte to spend in the past is no longer available. People making “market” comments based on past spending seem to be missing this aspect of the “market”.

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@BeyondTheHalo Soriano’s 2 TJ’s make his trade a no-brainer…but likely limits his return.

Detmers highest value is NOW. Gotta trade high in hopes of getting a return. Same as Adell.

Keep Urena. Put a group together with focus on competing and being deep in 2028!

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@SleeperAngels The K’s and defense are atrocious. Hits plenty of 💣 and it’s all he (seemingly) cares about. Selfish approach. I was hoping he’d transform into a “Pedroia” type of player.

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@BeyondTheHalo Put him at 3B and let him simmer!

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@JeffFletcherOCR Stretch out Natera in prep to start after you trade Soriano and Detmers!

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@JeffFletcherOCR What long term ownership is an interim consultant going to have? Arte needs to make a long term commitment to a VP of Baseball Ops who will own decisions with a mind to be competitive by 2028-2029.

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@AngelsWin Consultant and interim GM is a temp commitment. Why doesn’t Arte hire a VP of Baseball Ops to make decisions with a degree of commitment (4 yrs min)?

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@InsideHalos Why would you change the coaching staff? 4 managerial changes in the past 5 years makes it clear it’s not the Manager that’s the problem….

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@BeyondTheHalo Mozeliak has a “temp” title (consultant and interim GM)….they need to hire a VP of Baseball Ops to make baseball decisions moving forward. They have 3 VP’s of Marketing, Sales, etc….but no VP of Baseball. GM also required…

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@gregbeacham No signs of progress over 5 years. Several Manager Fire/hire cycles denote an attempt to shift blame. Perry clearly wasn’t the right hire to lead baseball Operations and/or GM duties.

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@AngelsNews27 Back to Lowe huh? 🤦🏽

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@SleeperAngels Just look at that tub of goo…no chance Perry has the discipline to execute a coherent strategy, or manage an org with consistency! No successful executive I’ve ever worked with looks like this guy…

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@BeyondTheHalo Arte needs to hire his GM of the future NOW so he can trade for the value required to compete in 2028! I wouldn’t let Perry trade anyone either…

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@MikeTruot27 I wouldn’t let Perry do any more damage to this franchise. Replace him with the person required to rebuild every level.

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@BeyondTheHalo Time to jettison the soft body Gossip bro and hire someone NOW who will net the best return for guys with value at the deadline. Do we really want Perry making 3-5 more key decisions that impact the franchise for the next several years? Focus on being competitive in 2028!

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@certifiedluvah @DanClarkSports I’d argue Grissom (whom they added to the roster when they DFA’d Mancini) isn’t part of the future either…

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@BeyondTheHalo 💯

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@ryanhurtado27 @JeffFletcherOCR The 7th Manager in 10’yesrs will do the trick, huh? 🤡

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@JeffFletcherOCR Find more Mecklers….

[David Bladow @BladowDavid]

@Jared_Tims Starts at the top. The past 12 years have been influenced by 3 GM’s & 6 Managers…but none more so than the owner who keeps allowing incompetent GM’s to keep shuffling chairs to avoid blame!
