Can we all say it is a carbon copy of the last three<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Trade an established major league hitter with 37 home runs for a pitcher that was a top prospect at one time coming off major arm injuries the last two years and is a huge question mark <\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Sign a pitcher that was fantastic two years ago. Then forgot how to pitch had major arm injuries and is on his third team in 6 months <\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Sign a one time highly touted prospect with ties to the braves who cannot hit major league pitching <\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Sing two pitchers for the bullpen that were both great 6 years ago that will both he DFA candidates by the all star break<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Sing a pitcher who is out of options who only has 56 innings of mlb experience and walks to many hitters <\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Sing a pitcher who was very good before the pandemic then had arm issues and was so bad in the minor he was forced to pitch overseas and wait for it with ties to the Braves <\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Trade for a middle infielder who at one time could hit but injuries set in and he has not hit above .190 in three years.  And guess what.  With ties to the braves <\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Sing a 39 year old reliever who watched his era balloon over five and has hardly pitched due to arm and back problems. <\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Rendon well SMH LOL \ud83e\udd2e good riddance.

He would be this years Jorge Soler <\/p>\n<p>\u2705Miss out on another player from Japan who said no I think I will go play third for a team that just came off a World Series appearance <\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Sing a left handed reliever who was good at one time and then in typical Angel player requirement got hurt and had his career completely implode <\/p>\n<p>\u2705Claim an outfielder off waivers who has 69 plate in four plus seasons of pro ball and hit .232 at the mob level but it\u2019s a hand me down from Moronnassian\u2019s brother <\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Sign another former highly touted prospect who is on his third team in two seasons.  The kid can actually make contact and not strike out but in typical Angels fashion coming of a major injury <\/p>\n<p>\u2705 lose your local tv contract (not your fault) so now MLB and ESPN can price gouge us to watch games     Remember in the before time when all the games were on KTLA. <\/p>\n<p>To quote a recent ESPN article a clueless GM making signings that would\u2019ve been all great moves in 2022<\/p>\n<p>Yet still have not filled the holes of CF,3B, Lf, back up catcher back of the rotation, closer and anyone that can hit above .230 <\/p>\n<p>The quest for 100 losses in in full effect <\/p>\n<p>Can\u2019t wait to wear my paper bag over my head at home games <\/p>\n<p>Operation extreme redundancy is moving along beautifully <\/p>\n<p>Love ya Perry and Artie<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Let\u2019s continue our review the Angels and Perry Moronassian \u2018s absolutely pathetic off season.
