  2. This is a good move, we can move cron to 1st and moose to 3rd, keep hot bat of rengifo at second, and hopefully neto is back soon, grichuck takes the hole at lf and our lineup actually looks dangerous

  3. somebody spoke that Grichuk thing into existence lol. Good on Perry being able to wring something out of this system to fill a couple more holes, our lineup desperately needs it for the next 10 days.

  9. Let’s hope they can hit outside of Colorado. We desperately need offense

  13. Wow this is actually pretty fucking significant. These guys can both hit, I’ve been watching the Rockies and they’re decent bats.

  16. Sucks that we had to make this trade but we just couldn’t roll with Cabbage and 3 outfielders anymore.

  17. Necessary trade with Ward’s injury at the hole at 1b. Now we just need to hope they perform away from coors (don’t know their splits).

  20. Whoever’s running the Angels prospect list on MLB is probably quaking in their boots trying to figure out who to add to the list. I guess we’ll get an update as soon as all the draft picks are tossed in there, but until that happens, I guess it’ll be like Kevyn Castillo and probably a Rookie league pitcher (Hamilton Mendez)?

  22. I feel like this is the first time in years that the entire Angels lineup + bench will be filled with ACTUAL MLB level talent top to bottom when healthy.

  23. As a pirates fan, I am latching onto the angels for the rest of the season. Very much likely the moves this deadline so far

  27. Can someone explain to me as I am not deep into baseball. This seems like an absolute fleecing.

    Cron is decent and can crush the ball, 258 batting avg.

    Grichuk 312 batting avg.

    The pitchers we gave up are 4th and 12th rounders. Is this fleecing?

  40. Solid depth moves! It sucks that Ward got moved to the 60-day IL but at least Perry went out and did something about it

  41. Goddamn we are loaded. A lineup of what, Neto-Ohtani-Trout-Rendon-Cron-Renfroe-O’Hoppe-Moustakas-Moniak with power like Rengifo, Escobar, Thaiss, Wallach, Grichuk, Gio, and Ward wins how many games? Assuming everybody is healthy
