Didn’t read the story but if the Angels are a lousier franchise than my Orioles I feel really bad for their fans. At least the Angels have a player worth buying a ticket to watch. Orioles dealt away the only reason anyone had to pay even the minimal attention.

Try being a Mets fan. I have been one since I went to my first Mets game back in 1965 and with the exception of a few years we have sucked!!!

I have said for a while that the Angels are an embarrassment right now with their inability to get Trout into the playoffs. The Orioles are really, really bad as well, as I've heard front office executives around the league have talked about how difficult they are to deal with despite their league-worst record.

Please. The Mets have won two World Series. My Brewers have been in existence since 1969 when they were born as the Seattle Pilots; they moved to Milwaukee the next season.

Unless they right the ship this year, or they take another step forward next year, this franchise will have existed for half a century, making it to a single World Series....36 years ago, and losing it.

The Angles spent huge to get Pujols, and Ohtani, and I am sure there are others, I don't see them anywhere near the Orioles in that regard.

What are you talking about? The O's spent huge to keep get and keep Chris Davis!
