ESPN talking heads say Skubal isn't worth much because he hasn't gone more than 6 innings since he's been back. This is his chance to shuts up those idiots.

Papi, A-Rod etc?

They took a break from talking about the NFL and WNBA?

Skubal has gone 93 and 96 pitches in his two recent starts, plus he has been a better pitcher overall: faster, with a better changeup, softer contact, more chase, more swing and miss. If you’re keeping him, you feel good about what he can do for you. If you’re selling, you have to highlight this part of it.

Those throwbacks need to be the Angels every day uniform (a button up version).   Those unis and caps are fantastic. 

I thought about the pullover vs button up last night.  I think the pullover looks better, but it wouldn’t work for some jerseys.  A perfect example would be the Tiger home with the dual piping in the front.  That would look absurd on a pullover.

The Angels should bring back their early on in existence hats with the halos on the top.  Somewhat kitschy, but it works for them.

No, I know who those guys are. They said if the Dodgers get Skubal, just cancel the WS and give them the trophy. The guys talking crap are guys i don't know, nobody famous, just talking heads who use their job to voice their opinions as facts. Useless...

I don’t care what the talking heads think. They don’t represent what the front offices think.  And we’re not trading him. 

I think if the right offer is made they might move him. But it has to be quite a good, to very good, offer.

He didn't usually go more than 6 innings before his injury either.  Most of them don't.  That is the way the game is played now

The ones that do pitch more to contact and are more likely to get hit hard in a given outing

So if we trade him, he'll get...maybe 8 to 10 starts the rest of the regular season? The playoffs is where having him would make a huge impact. I still say somebody should start a GoFundMe page for Chris to extend him. 😅😅

I hope we reach the point of being a solid enough team someday for Kevin to have an actual set position. 

I had thought over the winter he might end up at second after Gleyber leaves, but he hasn't logged a single batter there since 2024 in A ball. Still a chance, maybe, but who knows.

Can anybody post a link to the Sportsnet viewing schedule? I’m curious as to when pregame broadcasts begin. When I go into Detroit Sportsnet, the only thing they’ll do is sell me a subscription. They won’t give me any more information. The jerks.

Home games usually have pregame shows. Road games not so much.
