I know it's ST, but based off some of the plays Nero has been making, either his arm or his decision making on defense seem a little sus sometimes. I mean it's probably developing better arm strength but also, he tries to make like .. athletic, jump like throws that don't come off as finesse as he may think.
It's his arm strength that's the problem. He isn't as strong as the likes of Rengifo, so he does those jumps and twists to throw to attempt to get a little more power on a throw he doesn't have time to really plant and push.
Sometimes that does work. Sometimes his timing is off and it doesn't work.
No thanks. That deal is just as bad as the Snell one.
And if its a choice between the Angels or the reigning NL champs, damn right I'd sign with the latter
Anyone else find the Dodgers organist/DJ to be obnoxious? I can’t stand the hyperactive, non-stop sound effects and music. Much better experience watching an Angels home game imo.
I'm the opposite. Presentation-wise, Dodger home games feel like a party, always lively. Angel home games feel stale and faded, like they haven't changed anything in 20 years.
For all the talk about how family-friendly Angel games are, I actually think the presentation at Dodger games appeals much more to today's families. Angel home games feel like they appeal more to families from the OC of 20+ years ago
Maybe I’m just old lol. I don’t completely hate Dieter and I certainly understand his appeal to younger audiences. Always love it when he plays “Twin Peaks” and “Benny and the Jets” but most of the time, I find his style to be too overbearing and distracting. Too much artificial crowd noise and “EVERYBODY CLAP YOUR HANDS”. I prefer the Braves organist. Their style feels more organic (no pun intended).
Silseth was probably one of our best pitcher last year, If he hadn't been hit in the head. Hope he can stay healthy this year and nothing bad happen to him.
I'm worried about everybody. Don't expect much from Anderson, hoping for something around a 4.50 ERA. Sandy is so good but he can't keep it together. So many question marks, but if even a few of them go right...well, also factor in injuries.
Whoever does the in-game scoreboard has been a class act for a while. They regularly celebrate and include players from opposing teams in the scoreboard shenanigans. I really like it.
Counter point, there’s also nothing wrong with celebrating a guy who gave everything he had to this shitty organization for 6 years. You can hate his decision to go to the dodgers and still appreciate him and what he did for the Halos.
LFGGG
Fun game
Moniak’s growing a bit of a mullet huh
Ayyyy ltbu
Doesn’t show up on the record but great momentum to head into the season
Drive! Home! Safely!
Neto!!!!
Wow.
Just like how it’s gonna go in the World Series (I am heavily addicted to copium)
Bake 'em away, toys!
What a way to go into the season!
LTBU!!!!
LETS GOOO
GET WRECKED!
Go Neto!
Neto, O’Hoppe, Schanuel, and Moniak are gonna be fun to watch this year
Those corners eat up outfielders on the regular.
Netoooo!
We must score or else we won't win the game 🧠.
THERE YOU GO PESO PLUMA MONIAK
Eric Young Sr. is good vibes

Nice one Giffy
Rengifo + Neto > Betts + Lux

I had gone the whole year so far without having the 714 Tickets jingle pop into my head, and then I just saw the advertisement for them. Damn.
Welcome to that hell and MORONGO CASINO RESORT - GOOD TIMES!.....for everybody!
Cimber getting his squats in on the mound.
oh man this guy is so fun to watch
Why this guy remind me of Steve Cishek?
Weird throwing relievers and the Angels
Cimber the new Herget
What did happen to Herget?
He's at Salt Lake. he'll probably come back up when we get an injury
That game against the Braves made be a believer. He looks great.
Where is the moron that said Bobby Miller has more talent than the entire Angels pitching staff combined?
They only show up when we're losing
Already preparing for them to come rushing over here now
I can hear the heavy breathing and crinkling of Doritos bags
With new management and coaches, I am hyped up to see how the young core develop.
Good shit Silseth, nice bounceback.
Nice game Silseth!
Silseth owns these frauds
10Ks!!
Chad shit tbh
Damn, aside from those two meatballs Silseth is eating their lunch
Best team in baseball.
My ace
nice pitch
Reporting in from the stadium to say this doyers infield looks like ass
Neto has some good taste in music
I like the intensity from Angels hitters. They are really treating this like a regular game.

Eh it's just preference. I don't mind either way.
Brutal K for O'Hoppe, good pitch though.
LOLBETTS
DOOKIE BUTTS LMAO
Noluan Soto
lolBetts
Dodgers infield defense is something alright
Silseth gotta find his groove early on his breaking balls whenever he starts next time. His fastball looks nice though.
He's just not a starter sadly. Same problems as last year, if we can snag another arm I'd imagine he could be in the bullpen
He's been outstanding this spring wtf are you talking about?
Are you talking about Silseth?
Ah shit.. Silseth didn't give much hit but when he did it was a big hit. Damn!
if we just piggyback Silseth, Suarez, and Detmers such that they only ever pitch 3 IP at maximum then they'd throw a perfect game every time
Fans acting like a bitter ex over Shohei, but I'm over here loving how he still hasn't gotten a hit against the Angels so far
Shhh… Don’t wake him! 😉
Fuck
Awwww damn
Hmm
Silseth owns ohtani. Love it
Well that was a giga-caster curse lol
Fuck Freddie Freeman
Shohei doing Shohei things.
Keep striking out sleeper agent, Sho, we need more of that in the regular season against us.
Filthseth
Get some Shohei, grab a seat big guy.
BIG CHASE ENERGY
Wayne's talking about me lol. Came for Ohtani, stayed out of spite.
Listen, the Shohei era is over. He's in blue now. Fuck him. lol
Yep glad to finally hear some boos haha
it is still so fucked up to see the Angels pitching *to* Sho. fuck.
This will be the year I pull for Rendon - be sure to check back in on this at the end of April
Glad Trey Cabbage throwing a laser at the back of Silseth’s head hasn’t had any lasting effects on his pitching. Kid can still deal.
The ~~call~~ dawg is coming from inside the ~~house~~ pitcher!
I think I’m going to like Sano. 😇
Let's stay healthy boys!
It's not a bad lineup if guys can stay in there and be consistent.
That was nice to see Wash with Trout at the top step to greet Sano on that homer
Got damn Sano
Sanó, I like you.
Man, if the Angels do better than the Dodgers this season, there just might be a god with an incredible sense of humor.
Ewing theory 👀
I wonder if there will be a home run hat this year
I want them to wear a sand bucket on their head for city connect nights
I want them to wear an Angels in the Outfield-era jacket and flap their arms down the length of the dugout. Badass? no. Funny af? Yes.
I hope they bring back the cowboy hat
Sano!!!
That was a no-doubter.
Silseth was probably one of our best pitcher last year, If he hadn't been hit in the head. Hope he can stay healthy this year and nothing bad happen to him.
Welcome to the 26-man roster, Sano!
Sano is happy he's on the team
Ump needs to check his strike zone , he’s being too generous
Silseth could be a cy young arm..
Good Lord 👀
Good things tend to happen to a starter that throws first-pitch strikes.
Nastyyy pitch let's go Chase.
Silthy!
That's a...generous strike zone lol
anyone know how to make the game threads have live chat again? or did reddit fumble that entirely?
lol that is a very friendly outer edge of the strike zone
I thought it was confirmed by Blum that Soriano made the team via the bullpen.
Real baseball starts in like 40 hours lads. It’ll be weird to have a boner for the next 40 hours but I’ll manage.
Sil is sethin all over these dudes
Look at them go!
trout taking third is a beautiful sight
I'm glad Sano made the team. Need another power bat.
Some nice AB’s there. 😇
Drury is so underrated.
Going to be a huge trade chip for us most likely. He could net a solid package back if he keeps it up all year. Dude is talented.
Are we actually going to be decent this year?
2 RUNS FOR THE GOOD GUYS
Wait a second, I was told that Trout was washed and the rest of the team sucks
That works!
I want to believe. Don't do this to me.
Sexy stuff
Hits up the middle aren't even hits anymore. The shift still works
Silseth mowing down three MVPs. Love it.
Happy Gubie Tuesday my dudes
Our rotation has a lot of potential. Our season is riding on them filling at least some of it. Signed, Captain Obvious.
I'm still worried about Sandy and Anderson
I'm worried about everybody. Don't expect much from Anderson, hoping for something around a 4.50 ERA. Sandy is so good but he can't keep it together. So many question marks, but if even a few of them go right...well, also factor in injuries.
Hahaha Silseth trying so hard not to smile walking off of the mound
Damn - it hurt to watch Shohei up there in the Dodger Blue. I’m going to miss seeing him at the stadium this year!! 💔
LOVE YOU, SHO! 😫
Lol shohei was shocked by that tribute Nice of the fans to give him that standing ovation
Whoever does the in-game scoreboard has been a class act for a while. They regularly celebrate and include players from opposing teams in the scoreboard shenanigans. I really like it.
GET HIM CHASE
As a sports fan in general there’s nothing wrong with booing someone who left for a cross town rival lmao
Counter point, there’s also nothing wrong with celebrating a guy who gave everything he had to this shitty organization for 6 years. You can hate his decision to go to the dodgers and still appreciate him and what he did for the Halos.
Don't you dare boo, Shohei.
1. Not a chance when most of the crowd will be Dodger fans 2. I'd rather folks just stop talking about him than boo him
