I think a lot of you either are forgetting or choosing to not remember how cyclical baseball is. In the late '90s, everyone was convinced that the Yankees had broken baseball. A decade later, the A's and Rays had people screaming about how signing big-name free agents ruined your chance of winning.

The Dodgers are ruining baseball by trying to be good and succeeding at that on all fronts. MY COLUMN:

K. But what if he was just a “coach” instead?

SOURCE: The Colorado Rockies are nearing a two-year deal with free agent right-hander Savory Fahrtgarden.

This is a great breakdown of how busted the Angels are, how deep the grift goes, and how intense the gaslighting has gotten over the past few years. youtu.be/zweQqZ0e5TA?...

Craig & Co. asked me to write about the mess that is the Los Angeles Angels for this year's BP Annual. I didn't pull any punches.

I've warned the guys @productiveouts.bsky.social enough at this point. If this sort of behavior continues, there will be consequences: www.perfectgame.org/players/play...

Looking forward to watching Nick Madrigal pitch the 9th inning of a blowout loss in a late-July that eliminates the Angels from the playoffs.

Beyond insulting.

One Minasian’s trash is another Minasian’s treasure … or something.

We let a poodle cast a Hall Of Fame ballot. Here’s what happened.

Neither this, nor the 2026 Los Angeles Angels, have to exist if you choose never to watch them

Any time you can lock in a 31-year old dude with as many DFAs as he has big league dingers, you simply must do it.

80-grade #dadhat from Joe Keery on the set of Stranger Things. Truly elite stuff here. You love to see it.

Spending my offseason with a bunch of digital goobers stuck to my half-naked body while I throw weighted balls at max-effort into a gym mat hanging from the ceiling of a Costco. All my boys are here looking at iPads and pumping me up. It's so lit. I'm gonna blow my UCL before spring training starts.

SOURCE: The Tampa Bay Rays have agreed to a one-year deal with free agent left-hander Geoff Carpeanus.

Tremendous dedication to visors from both sidelines in this CFB playoff game.

Deeply saddened to report we have nothing to do with the name Trinidad Chambliss. Please respect our privacy at this difficult time.

Buy the book. I might have written too many words about the Angels in it. Only one way to find out.

Craig is right. You should do this.

I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating. This is the worst contract in a club history rife with terrible contracts. What a disaster.

"WHO THE HELL IS RESPONSIBLE FOR PUTTING A GODDAMN AXOLOTL IN THIS WET ZOO?!"

Wishing each and every one of you a very Nabil Crismat.

Great conversation with Sam Blum in this episode about the Skaggs v. Angels trial, and just how lame the Halos’ defense was from the jump.

This is outstanding.

I hope he brings his blood but leaves the milk at home.

This is spot-on. If you show your ass repeatedly, people will notice. The Angels don't deserve anyone's optimism.

this trade brought to you by @productiveouts.bsky.social

Spent the morning remembering a guy, and wondering if there will ever be another player with a stance like this.

If you're the Angels you've gotta feel real good about yourself right now. Just ate shit in court and very publicly showed your ass for three months, and now your coveted FA target decided he'd rather play for a team that's won like 30% of it's games since 2022 than join the circus in Anaheim.

It’s a stretch, but will the judges accept Fart Stuairchild?

I saw Toilet Rats open for The Jesus Lizard in ‘91.

settlement after they lost leverage, legal fees for three-month trial, and a bunch of now-public information that mlb (which doesn't have subpoena power) can now use as evidence in potential discipline. and still no one really GAF that a player had a drug problem. another masterclass by the angels.

We could never.

Per the contents of this EW episode, the Philadelphia Baseball Team will hereby be referred to as the Philadelphia Milkmen until their behavior improves. This is non-negotiable.

José Andrés was a Prodcast listener: CONFIRMED #weirdmeat

Pressing the SPEAK button on the MouthHole 2.0, typing the prompt “words”, and just seeing what falls out.

I love how they think they can fix people, when they can’t even develop their own guys. Such hubris.

Congrats Droop Omeranz. Your an Angle!

Gaslighting? The Angels? When have they ever done that? It's not like they've spent the last decade lying to their fan base or anything. www.nytimes.com/athletic/689...

Love this for the Angels. Gives them room to lock up Craig Kimbrel.

$20 million a year for Jorge Polanco certainly is A Choice.

Biff Poggi? We could never.

K. Now do the starting rotation.
