The Angels hire Kurt Sazuki to only a 1 YEAR DEAL! | Nothing Personal with David Samson #mlb #angels

That’s right. Kurt Suzuki signed a oneyear contract to manage the Angels. I’d like you to picture Kurt walking into the clubhouse in spring training. First workout, gentlemen, we’ve got under 12 months to figure this out. Let’s do it for the Gipper. Is he going to get to hire his own coaches and put them all on one-year deals, or is he have no power at all? Did Arie Moreno really have nothing to do with the hire of a manager, which would be the first time in the history of the Angels or any team that the owner had nothing to do with the hiring of a manager? Do you actually believe that Perry Manazian was solely responsible for the hiring of Kurt Suzuki? And if that’s true, and if the owner has disassociated himself from the process, do you think that’s Arie Mareno getting smart, finding God? I know I’m going to do something different. I know that we haven’t won anything. Our poor guy Mike Trout’s getting old as f and he hasn’t won as much as a playoff game. We have the longest trout going on right now. I know what I’ll do. I’m going to let my guy Perry, who has one year left, who has not done one thing positive as the general manager, and I’m going to let him hire the manager, give them both one-year deals, because Perry only has one year left in his deal. And then next year, we’ll do it all again. Did you hear Kurt Suzuki during the press conference? He was gushing over Perry and Arty and the ownership and the family and the opportunity. When asked about one year, his answer was, “I’ve been playing on one year deals my whole career.” Kurt, it’s a bit different when you’re the person in charge of the clubhouse and you come down. I never wanted our managers to be on the final year of their contract for fear it would usurp some of their power. The reason why we ended up paying multiple managers all the time is that we would extend managers and then fire them. I like the concept of matching, but why wouldn’t you just extend Perry Manazian and give Kurt Suzuki a two-year deal? Two-year plus a team option. That would have even passed the smell test to me. But a one-year contract is not a serious contract. The players know
