Gameday Thread: 8/20 Angels @ Rangers : Game 2

Whenever Upton has to go back on a fly ball it gets a little scary... -
Good times back in the day. I’ll never forget the night at The District when we saw him and some chick wanted to smash HD and me, I think at the same time. This was also the setting and maybe the same night for the Torii Hunter and Mark Teixeria Sharkeez night story that was pre viral but blew up here. Good times.

Cy Burke, major league debut. -
He is talented for sure but very inconsistent in the strike zone. Very easy to root for however.
-
I can't help but to just laugh at this dude.

Jesus. I went to BR to double-check that (it's correct) and then browsed the rest of the bottom of the list. Harvey, Cahill and Cozart have combined for -2.0 WAR, at a cost of 32 million. -
It's definitely reassuring. I always knew he had it in him, he just had to channel it.

Having Pujols on the team is like playing the entire season with a 24 man roster but with $29M less to spend.

This place is going to go apeshit if Adell ends up being more of a “Prime Melvin” type.

Stassi is 1 for 30 with 12 K since joining the Angels. In 12 games, he's at -0.8 WAR according to B-R. 1 passed ball and 4 wild pitches with him behind the plate, too. Small sample size and all of that--but jeez, that's about as bad as it gets. -
Assuming you are sure Betts signs an extension how could you not do this? Anyone saying no is oblivious. Realistically Adell never reaches the peak Mookie is currently at. You can then go and spend money on pitching with Pujols coming off the books soon.

Based on the ESPN top-300 list I'm looking at right now, you could go zero RB and end up with Kelce (14) and Antonio Brown (15). Maybe JuJu slides (at 13 now, someone could certainly slide based on preference) or Mike Evans is an option. At 42, available RB's are Damien Williams-KC, Mark Ingram, James White, Sony Michel, David Montgomery. WR's there are Cooper Kupp, Alshon Jeffery, Godwin-TB. At 70, available RB's Tevin Coleman, Miles Sanders, Ekeler, Duke Johnson; WR's Sterling Shepard, J. Landry, Kirk, Dede, Marvin Jones. 3 ways to go: Mix it up Best available: Gurley, Dal. Cook or J. Conner (14), Kelce (15), Kupp (42), Dam. Williams (43), Marvin Jones/Robbie Anderson (70), Tevin Coleman (71), Latavius Murray (98), Geronimo Allison (99) Zero RB: JuJu (if he slides one pick-14), Kelce (15), Dam. Williams-KC (42), Kupp/David Montgomery (43), T. Coleman (70), Miles Sanders (71), Murray (98), Allison (99) Early RB: Dal. Cook and J. Conner (14-15), Kupp and Jeffery/Godwin (42-43), Coleman/Sanders and Marvin Jones/Robbie Anderson (70-71), Murray and Allison I don't know that I could go zero RB early. I also don't know that I could spend the opportunity cost to draft Kelce. Maybe someone like OJ Howard, Evan Engram or Hunter Henry slides to the 70. Those 3 went 64, 65, 66 in this list. With a little luck, you could field something like Dalvin Cook, JuJu, Damien Williams, Cooper Kupp, Marvin Jones (Hunter Henry here if he slides), Tevin Coleman, Lat Murray, Allison and maybe target someone like Jordan Reed or Mark Andrews later. No early QB is my plan for sure, although it gets tempting to grab someone earlier when they've slid. But, it's too good if you can actually use your early picks to build that RB/WR depth and still get a Goff, Russell Wilson, Winston, Murray, Brees, Lamar Jackson, Prescott type late.

But Betts is already an All Star top rated pro and already postseason spotlight ready. Shall we bury another 2-3 Trout years to allow Adell to develop. Betts would surely want to stay here right?
-
So you’re betting on Adell to put up MVP type numbers at some point in his career. Not that it matters because Boston wouldn’t bet on that.
-
Mookie is awesome....ffs
-
Wait a second....you would only think about it if Adell plays like Wood?

Mookie is fantastic but this is a bad fit. No way Eppler trades one year of Betts at $20 M+ for 6 controllable years of Adell. Eppler needs two frontline pitchers. That is the priority.
-
Mookie is from Nashville so he'll obviously want to play for the Braves. seriously though, it's not outlandish to think the Red Sox are set for a reboot. If they lose Sale for awhile their SP is brutal. The pen is solid and they've got some good, controlled position players. if they lose JDM to free agency, they could quickly morph into what the halos were this year. they have the worst farm system in baseball and their payroll is set to exceed the lux tax threshold again next year. They could be viewing this year as their WS hangover year, but it could get worse for them in a hurry. They might spend their way through which could work but their running out of assets.

Here's a good one: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/florida-man-arrested-after-allegedly-performing-botched-castration-surgery-n1044586

If the Angels think Adell is an all-star/generational type of guy...they can't trade him. Not somebody they would have for 6 controllable years who could partner in the OF and sit in the middle of the lineup with Trout and Ohtani. That would be asinine...it would also mean you have less money to fill in massive holes elsewhere. So you replace Adell, with a similar/older/more expensive player who becomes a huge payroll hit. Now...if the Angels think Adell is Brandon Wood...or even Howie Kendrick...then maybe you think about it.

This was big for Heaney. He's been hurt most of the season, and he missed spring training which may have impacted his season. His stuff is good and he proved that against a good ranger's line-up that has destroyed our pitching. One take away i took from his start, was that he was mixing in all of his pitches while using the entire strike zone. He's just wasn't going either up or low, it was up, outside, low in and low out! health has been a concern but a big guy for next season.
