I guess I could look this up, but since I don't know much about Trout other than his stats, has he been interviewed about staying in Anaheim as opposed to testing the free agent market previously to try and play for a winner?

Is he just a SoCal guy who isn't interested in playing anywhere else?


He is from Jersey, but he's just a very low-maintenance, quiet guy. Probably the same reason he has no interest in doing commercials or growing his personal brand even though MLB has begged him to for years. By all reports, he seems to appreciate the Angels organization and probably feels loyal to them.

We'll see if he doesn't get tired of losing in a few years and heads to the Bronx, Boston, or Philly

I gotta say, so far JV, Valdez and Urquidy are all looking fantastic. Odo was okay but if we get LMC back this rotation is gonna be filthy

Why is nIKo on the roster? There are dozens of Chris Carters out there that can hit .200 and at least run into one and launch a bomb every once in a while.

Why do we have a whiff machine who couldn't even hit enough to stick as a SS playing 1b?

He's a utility guy who can play all the IF positions. He's out there because Yuli's on maternity leave. Otherwise Diaz would be the guy in when an IF needs the day off.

Adell now 0-for-8 on the year with 6 strikeouts. Kid's a young Joey Gallo in the making.

NiKo. It's going to be a long season if he's getting any kind of meaningful ABs.

Goodrum couldn't handle the 78 MPH knuckle curve there.

Harry Dunne

I know all of that. There is still no good reason a $h1tbird like Goodrum should ever be playing 1b.

Put Yordan at first and let literally anybody else DH.

Or maybe wait until Yuli is back to give Bregman or Altuve a day off?
Harry Dunne

Another reasonable solution.

I know, its a long season blah blah blah…and God forbid a pro athlete in their prime hit and if they're lucky run the bases 4 days in a row.

I know. My point was we didn't need to give other guys days off while he was on leave, and could have kept Goodrum out of the lineup

Yuli's was a real warrior out there going through spring training in his 3rd trimester.

Someone needs to update the 3 hit game tweet between Peña and Bellinger.

Is having two 3-hit games in your first series good? It sounds good.

Maddon makes his pitcher intentionally walk Yordan then yanks him. That's some BS level coaching.

It's almost like you should put a good batter behind Alvarez to avoid the intentional.

Pena is going to make people move on from CC sooner than we thought if he keeps this up

And that's a balk. He's not even close to stopping.
