The Halos Report

The 3 moods of #Angels fans:

What facet of being GM has Perry Minasian been the BEST at?

"How do you not look at your current state of affairs and say we need to tear this thing down and start over?" @JeffPassan advocates for the Angels to do a hard reset at the trade deadline.

@jamesajanosz @Jake_B_27 He was a top 100 guy at the end of last year.

@Jake_B_27 @HalosReport Agreed he’s not close to a top 100 prospect, is this list a Roger Lodge list?

IF the Angels didn't rush prospects, they would have a really good farm 1.) Christian Moore (Top 100) 2.) Tyler Bremner (Top 100) 3.) Ryan Johnson (Top 100) 4.) Hayden Alvarez 5.) Johnny Slawinski 6.) George Klassen 7.) Joswa Lugo 8.) TGA 9.) Dylan Jordan 10.) Denzer Guzman

@_0xcy_ @defib4life They have both been ~4 FIP relievers for a team that has an awful bullpen and they are giving up a depth piece who is barley on the top 30 prospect lol. I am not overhyping anything.

@HalosReport @defib4life And then you see both relievers have been inconsistent and trash Trade deadline is so annoying because this entire fanbase overhypes complete garbage and then is disappointed when the return is someone like Matthew Lugo

Angels Hypothetical Trades (They won't happen because Arte) PHI: Adell LAA: OF Buckholder (Phi #11), McFarlane (Phi #17) CLE: Detmers LAA: 1B Velasquez (Cle #2), C Ingle (Cle #3) WAS: Suter, Yates LAA: 1B/3B Morales (Was #28)

@_0xcy_ @defib4life Two relievers for a 28-ranked 24 y/o prospect.

@HalosReport @defib4life You won't even get a ranked prospects for Yates wtf are you on

@TaylorBlakeWard What would you do since their is seemingly no spot for him atm?

Christian Moore had a multi-homer night last night, his second in four games; he's OPS'ing 1.48 in June and is slashing .402/.493/.675 since May -- might be C-Mo time in Anaheim

@Cvpitalzz They would have been up already. Talking about guys who SHOULD still be prospects.

@HalosReport You forgot Neto and Nolan

@ODeezys_cc Two top 100 guys for 2.5 years of control on Detmers seems fair

@HalosReport Of course every fanbase. The question is always the price. Models would say that Velazquez and ingle is an overpay for Detmers. But hey, I hope you're right, since we're both Angels fans

@ODeezys_cc You know what you are so right. What fanbase would want their GM to trade for a top 5 SP in the game right now.

@HalosReport Naylor has a 21 wrc+ and a negative 0.6 war. Bailey is slightly better with a 59 wrc+ and a 0.1 war. I think Cleveland fans are probably happy you aren't their GM

@defib4life A team will pick him up for a very low ranked prospect lol

@HalosReport Who wants Yates? Seriously

@loganohoppeglzr Leads off in AAA and allows for Neto to hit 3

@HalosReport why would cmo lead off

Angels Lineup Soon: 2B Moore CF Trout SS Neto RF Adell 1B Schanuel DH Grissom LF Meckler C O'Hoppe 3B Guzman

@ODeezys_cc Bailey is a platinum glove catcher and Naylor is a former top 100 guy. They both have control and will be Cleveland's duo for awhile.

@HalosReport I'm sorry, did you just describe Bailey, Naylor, and Hedges as catching wealth?

@CorbinClark69 Peraza has been in a slump so might regulate him to a UTIL who hits LHP. Trading Adell would solve this roster crunch but the Angels do that unless they get an offer that blows them away.

@HalosReport So trade Adell, Move Meckler to RF, Moore to LF? I assume Peraza isn't moving from 2B.

#Angels Christian Moore is the best hitter in AAA, sporting a 161 wRC+. ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY ONE. CALL HIM UP.

@ODeezys_cc Velasquez has 1 HR in 20 AAA games. Ingle is stuck in the middle of CLE catching wealth. Bailey, Naylor, Hedges. You don't trade for Patrick Bailey for nothing.

@HalosReport Ralphy Velazquez is the premiere power bat in the minors right now and some outlets have him as a top 15 prospect. Ingle would have already been up if it weren't for injury. Nobody is blocking those guys

@CorbinClark69 Probably 2B or LF. Guzman should have full reign at 3B for a while.

@HalosReport 3B?

@ODeezys_cc Both players are blocked by Manzardo and Bailey/Naylor/Hedges. Detmers is also a top 5 pitcher in the game right now so thats simply the price.

@HalosReport Zero chance Cleveland makes that trade but I like it for the halos

@jokerchad Angels and CLE line up really well, plus Cleveland's pitching lab could turn Detmers into a beast.

@HalosReport I like the trade with Cleveland

@bsams21 I agree Nolan needs to go down, but the Angels, sadly, are not that cutthroat. Nolan would benefit greatly from a stint in AAA or simply just a phantom IL stint with his calf.

@HalosReport Option Schanuel. Grissom at 1st. Give Meckler 1-2 more weeks - move CMO to OF. If Meckler does well trade Adell or Trout. If Schanuel crushes AAA bring him back and option either Meckler or Walton. I’ll guarantee NS’s numbers in AAA are the same as the pros. Boring.

Moore and Grissom need to be called-up/reinstated and need playing spots. How do you fit them in? Mancini will probably get the boot to clear one spot, but its either DFA Walton or Madrigal or option Meckler or Guzman.
