I think he’s probably the best free agent hitter fit for them, as long as he doesn’t get the qualifying offer. If he does, it’s hard to stomach giving up a 2nd round pick given where this team is at.

But they do count as a number of guaranteed and arbitration-year contracts subtracted from 34?

@mikepetriello.bsky.social is there a place to report bugs for the MiLB website + app? When you sort the MiLB scoreboard page by MLB affiliates, the rookie level teams don’t show up. And the MiLB app has the wrong Single-A affiliate listed for LAA and presumably SEA + LAD

When you say they’re starting to jump ship, to what extent? Not going to games? Not following them at all? Becoming fans of other teams?

Great work, thank you. It’s inexplicable to me that they keep leaning into this archetype despite having basically no success in developing these types. I’m hoping Jared Hughes can get pitching dev on the right track, but unsure if he’ll have the resources to do so.

I’m clinging to hope that Jared Hughes can revamp a minor league pitching program that has been awful. And if that doesn’t work, then the whole front office and player development apparatus may be gone at the end of the season.

I track the Angels milb roster moves and the AAA roster they have in the article is completely different than the end of season roster (and features a bunch of R5 eligible guys), so I figured it was accurate league-wide. But apparently not.

The article said they “reverse engineering the various roster moves of the offseason so far, we have managed to put together the Triple-A rosters for all 30 MLB clubs” Maybe they are wrong, or I am, but I took this to mean they attempted to find the actual AAA roster and not year end

The first two periods— the second in particular— has to be the best I’ve seen them play in at least the last half-decade

This piece was obviously about his defensive value, but curious what you think about Bichette’s offense… do you think it’ll hold up as he ages? Any concern about the low bat speed?

I understand what you’re saying about there not being a single all-encompassing stat that’s a tell all. I guess what I’m really asking is: what do you recommend people do to evaluate players? Is there a specific process to follow or is it just completely individual for each player?

Yeah, clearing Soler would be a big motive in this hypothetical. $15M in 2027 is a little too pricey for my taste. But a GM not guaranteed to be employed in 2027 might prefer to take on less money in 2026 and more in 2027.

beyondthehalo.bsky.social @beyondthehalo.bsky.social · 24/11/2025
I was thinking maybe you swap Soler for him, but that only takes care of the 2026 money. I’d be hesitant to take on the full $15M he’s due in 2027.

Getting out of the extra 2 years is a massive win, imo. I could easily see the Nimmo contract being an albatross 2-3 years from now.

Adding a solid SP3/SP4 would really help solidify things. They need some more innings certainty. (That Dana projection makes me sad)

This feels right, though I think they’ll be hesitant to trade Adell/Ward. I could see them opting to keep both, not sign Mullins and go with Teodosio/Adell in CF (bleh).

The coaching— particularly what should be an improved PP and PK— gives me optimism they’ll be better. This preview paints a bleak picture for their defenseman. A couple of the young guys need to step up and Gudas/Trouba need to be better.

And that awful run differential continues to grow! Now they’re gonna use the excuse that their run differential is inflated by position players pitching. Which is technically true, but also a reflection of your team.

The Angels brass is gonna publicly point to an improved W/L record in 2025 as a point of progress, but their run differential shows they still have a LONG way to go.

I’m not sure where they go from here. I was more optimistic entering the year than I am now. I thought we’d see the younger SPs (Dana, Aldegheri, Kochanowicz, Silseth, etc.) take a step and be in the majors right now. Instead, pretty much all of them have regressed.

@fangraphs.com @megrowler.fangraphs.com @jon-becker.com Wasn’t sure who to direct this toward, but on the Angels section of the BOARD: - #15 & #16 seem to have wrong FV or ordinal ranking. - Michael Darrell-Hicks (#26) is now with the Pirates - Jadiel Sanchez (#37) was released in March

I feel like the worst scenario (outside of buying rentals) is holding. I’d be all for buy/sell. And I’d settle for buying low on players with control or just buying players with control.

Feels like that info is aging real poorly. Given he had to write about all 30 teams, I’m guessing he pre-wrote some stuff. And the last 16 hours have firmly cemented the Angels needing to sell.

@jon-becker.com Do you know if the 15-day option rule still applies for a pitcher that comes off the MLB IL and is optioned? Like, does the team still have to wait the 15 days to recall them again?

Well, I guess the broadcast was wrong since the Angels optioned Dana today and brought up Michael Darrell-Hicks.
