I enjoy Samson's show, because he ran a team and always provides great insight to the inner workings of MLB teams. On today's show, he had this interesting nugget about Arte and Pujols and the manager situation and I thought it was very insightful.

PS. For the record, I want Brandon Hyde to be the next Angels manager.

  1. I really don’t know Arte’s ultimate goal is. He wants to win but refuses to change. He’s getting older and his family doesn’t seem interested in owning the team. Like just sell and give your family the power to do whatever they want in life?

  2. I’m curious about his argument that Pujols wouldn’t come to the Angels to manage. I will say if he has a choice, this probably wouldn’t be his first pick. But generally, first time managers don’t get numerous teams banging down the door to hire them, and if it’s a choice between managing and not managing, I think he’d take it. But I could be wrong. Samson seems to believe he’d have plenty of options, but I just don’t buy that, personally.

  3. i love david. i hope he and his family are okay, sports are better when he’s talking about them
