Ian Lewis

Jayden Watson
He was never going to go the the Cubs. 20% chance at best. I'm just surprised he didn't choose Seattle
Michael Martinez
Holy shit the reports were wrong! How can the media be so fucked
Wyatt Sanchez
Mfw he gets traded for Stanton in a few minutes
Kayden Collins
I'd imagine he has a no trade clause.
Juan Turner
fuck yeah boys
Brayden Gutierrez
>One of the best hitting pitchers in a while >Plays in the AL
Anthony Hughes
Hey we did something decent
Jonathan Fisher
DiPoto has to be fired at some point this coming season, right?
Robert Garcia
He'll play DH
Easton Walker

Austin Cooper
angels lifelongs coming out of the burned down woodwork
Jeremiah Rogers
Ohtani is signing a standard uniform contract with no frills of any kind.
Wyatt Cooper
Giants = Gnats
Aiden Williams
Memeiner fans are absolutely SEETHING right now
Nathaniel Gutierrez
Even though I had low expectations of ohtani signing with my team I am still heartbroken
Hold me bros ;_;
Josiah Jackson
>tfw about to welcome ohtani to the freeway series with fury
James Nelson
This just set the Mariners playoff hopes back 10 years.
Grayson Morgan

Lincoln Moore
man, angels putting LA back on the relevancy map, thanks guys
Owen Baker
Can you use the dh for a different position? Like let the pitcher hit and dh for the catcher or some shit
Colton Perry
kek
Jaxson Rogers
This is the second best possible ohtani outcome.

Pick up every single former atl prospect
William Garcia
Sign some third world prospects that probably won't pan out
Gabriel Flores
Yeah and now they probably have to compete with the Brewers, Twins, Cubs, for the SP targets that are left. Anyone know what their payroll ceiling is?
Kevin Garcia
Now the Angels can ruin TWO generational talents at the same time
Ryder Gomez
Thai lady boys
Evan Turner
I wonder what could be the reason that Otani chose the Angels??????????
Brody Reed
>not LAD Who will the cubs play in the NLCS next year now?
Robert Young
we're looking stacked for next season boys
Jose Hill
you can relinquish your DH Position for the pitcher to bat. giants did it with Bumgarner
Jeremiah Scott
Well without Ohtani and likely Stanton the Giants FO has doomed us to another terrible season. Why the fuck do people not want to play for SF?
Carter Murphy
Nobody they aren't passing the WC
Joseph Flores
>the state of Mariners fans
Samuel Hall
where were you when the mariners were kill?
Levi Reyes
Fuck
Ayden Harris
wrong
Jacob Rodriguez
I'm interested to see how Scioscia will fuck this one up too.
David Diaz
Sooo like wtf are they gonna do with pujols? I imagine they told the gook he could dh everyday he doesn't pitch. They wouldn't run ohtani in the outfield would they?....
Adrian Rivera
no DH is only allowed for the pitching position
Samuel Torres
At least they have their roasted crickets
Brody Gray
Treat him like dirt and hope he offs himself to save cap
Chase Anderson
The farm has been gutted and there isnt that much at the mlb level to show for it Better start spending that international money
Aaron Lee
Still have the Seahawks, Huskies, and Sounders. It also looks like a NHL team is coming to town. If the Mariners suck so be it.
Jaxson Fisher
angels in charge of wasting 2 generational talents
Noah Hughes
Seagulls
Hunter Lee
Are the Angels favorites to win the AL West now?
Noah Sanders
Dissapointment is pretty standard for mariner fans
Joseph Long
>Wells >Pujols >Freese >Hamilton
Ohtani being a bust confirmed
Thomas Watson
not like the mariners would have any success either tho lol
Luke Phillips
I would run Ohtani's schedule like this >start >day off >DH >DH >day off >repeat process Give him a day off before each game he is scheduled to start and then another day off after each start so he is rested for the start and then has a full day to recover. Maybe use him as a pinch hitter on his rest days. If the team doesn't play a game the day before or after Ohtani starts then he can DH in the game before/after.
I'd imagine it's because the team was so bad last season and has so much money committed. SF didn't have a problem getting Cueto to come, or Samardzija, or getting Pence extended. Beyond that, it's also a very high-tax division in general and some players might not like the extremist homo agenda. Got to have the highest cost of living in the sport and the park can be unkind to hitters.
Camden Harris
おたはに = Big fish in Japanese Trout = a type of fish Angelfishes are found on reefs The prophecy dude
Christian Clark
no lmao asstros still exist
Jordan Flores
With the edition of Dee Gordon the Mariners definitely would've made the playoffs if the got Ohtani.
Camden Torres
>old >old >old >old, junkie Ohtani is younger than some of the posters in this thread
Luke Ramirez
been a while since the angels were offseason champs
Nathan Sanchez
To be fair it would've been the same if he signed with the memeiners >"King" Felix
Nolan Diaz
please lord no
Leo Fisher
>Better start spending that international money I think the higher-end guys that were cut loose from Atlanta have already been signed. I think it was the Angels who nabbed Maitan. I don't know if there is anybody left to grab. Are there any Cubans floating around right now?
Chase Cox
>SF didn't have a problem getting Cueto to come, or Samardzija, you mean jeff samardzija had little trouble putting his 4.5 career ERA on a 90M contract??? i really wonder why someone with a 4.5 career ERA would put his name on a 90M contract offered by SF. SFG must have given him the pitch of a lifetime!
Blake Davis
>Trout hits the game winning hr of Paxton while Ohtani pitches 8 SO innings This is your future Mariner fans You let this happen
Caleb Reyes
inb4 choking
Asher Brown
Really? Well I guess if they did immediately trad him it would ruin their chances at any other future FA signing
Cameron Peterson
It's all Ron Washington's fault for getting Hamilton hooked on cocaine. Hamilton definitely would've been in the HOF if he stayed clean.
Isaac Gutierrez
How hard is Robinson Cano's contract going to pound the Mariners in the asshole? Will it be Pujols tier in a few years?
Angel Richardson
THE DOYLETS ARENT EVEN THE BEST TEAM IN THEIR CITY!

Rules question for ya.
If you use your Pitcher as the DH can you replace him with another DH and still keep him on the mound?
Charles Jenkins

they need someone more than Ohtani to beat Astros. they're playoff contenders
Jayden Bennett

Cameron White
I've known this feel for a while since I'm a month older than Trout who is my favorite player
