1 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 1: Play Angel fans and welcome back to Halo Territory. We 2 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: are part of the Foul Territory Network. I'm Mike D. Giovanna, 3 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 1: former La Times baseball writer and host of the show, 4 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:23,439 Speaker 1: and we're joined today by Breezy noan longtime Angels fan 5 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 1: and season ticket holder, making her second Halo Territory appearance 6 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: this season. Breezy, welcome back to the show. How are 7 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: you doing today? 8 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 2: I'm doing wonderful. Thank you so much for having me back. 9 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: Great to have you back. We'll get a lot to 10 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: discuss today, including Logan O'hoppies, Tuesday Night heroics, Joan Moncatta's 11 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: falling stock, and some new Angel Stadium food options ahead 12 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: of Friday night's home opener. First, you're going to explore 13 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 1: one of the more encouraging storylines of this young season, 14 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 1: pitcher Jose Soriana, who threw six shutout innings in the 15 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: season opening win over the Hoon win over Houston Astros, 16 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: and another six shutout innings in Tuesday nights. One of 17 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: the Chicago Cubs now for the last seven years. Andy McCullough, 18 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 1: the fine ball writer at the Athletic and a former 19 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:15,880 Speaker 1: Ela Times colleague of mine has put together what he 20 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: calls the Aces Project, where he surveys a panel of 21 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: twenty scouting, player development, and analytics experts to determine who 22 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: Baseball's aces are. There were fifty pitchers on that list 23 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 1: heading into this season. Derek Schouble and Paul Skeens were 24 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: at the top of that list, but there are no 25 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 1: Angels on that list. I can't say any Angel deserved 26 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: to be on that list going into the season, But 27 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: Breezy is Soriano making a push to be included on 28 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: this list next season? 29 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: Okay, So I would say that it's a little too 30 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: soon to know because I don't know if you remember 31 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: last season, he was absolutely incredible on the road eight wins, 32 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 2: three losses, and then at home he would just blow 33 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 2: up for whatever reason. I think he was two wins, 34 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 2: eight losses. So I personally am really looking forward to 35 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 2: seeing how he does at Angel Stadium before you know, 36 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 2: we get to ahead of ourselves. 37 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, right now. The definition of an ace, I think 38 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: is subjective. It's sort of in the eyes of the beholder. 39 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: But for me, it starts with stuff. And you look 40 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: at Jose He's got five pitches, four that he uses 41 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 1: mainly he's got a sinker that's averaging about ninety seven 42 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: ninety eight miles an hour, mixes up with an occasional 43 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: four seamer and a pretty nasty knuckle curve that comes 44 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 1: in at about eighty six miles an hour. And of 45 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: course he's got that split finger. Now, that sinker I 46 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: think is as probably as best pitch and used that 47 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: to induce eighteen ground ball outs already in his first 48 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: two starts. And that nule, Yeah, that knuckle curve. For 49 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: fans watching the game Tuesday night, there was a great 50 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,519 Speaker 1: sequence in the fourth inning where he ran a splitter 51 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,079 Speaker 1: onto Nico Horner's hands for a strikeout. Then he got 52 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: Danzby Swanson to swing at a curveball that I think 53 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: wound up in the left handed hitters batter's box. Yeah, 54 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: and then he struck Yeah. Then he struck out Swanson 55 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: looking at a ninety nine mile an hour fastball on 56 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: the outside corner. Also, for me, an ace is a 57 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: perennial all star, a guy who delivers consistent quality starts 58 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 1: and pitches deep into games, who can match up with 59 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: opposing aces number ones, number two's thrives under pressure, who 60 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: is mentally tough. I think, sorry, showed some of that 61 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: toughness in Chicago two's and when he wasn't wearing any 62 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: sleeves in like forty forty degree weather. But he's kind 63 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: of I think he's got a little ways to go 64 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: in some of these areas, and he you know, of course, 65 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: has to do this in a complete season. You know, 66 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: we're looking at his stats here if you're watching us 67 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: on YouTube, a four point two six era last year. 68 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 1: Not great. Off to a great start this year, but 69 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 1: you know, when you know, all star appearances, maybe that 70 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: changes this year. What is the longevity, you know, consistency 71 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: aspect part of what's going to sort of get him 72 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: to the next level. 73 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, Like I said, like, I think. 74 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 2: Him being able to do that at home is really 75 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 2: what's going to make or break him, I think, And 76 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 2: it's the consistency piece. Of course, staying healthy has been 77 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 2: an issue. But I will say watching the game, especially 78 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 2: last night, he seems a lot more calm, which I 79 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 2: think maybe it seems like the whole team in general 80 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 2: has been focusing a little bit more on their mind set. 81 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: Minus Mancatta. 82 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 2: But but yeah, like it does seem like he just 83 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:14,239 Speaker 2: seems much more composed and yeah at forty degree weather 84 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 2: and just like not having anything underneath, like just rock 85 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 2: in the jersey, like he had to be so locked 86 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,360 Speaker 2: in mentally, which I think is a really good indicator 87 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 2: of what's to come, hopefully and to to get the 88 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 2: opening day start and have that confidence I think is 89 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 2: really really important, especially to somebody like him. That's you know, 90 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 2: I saw on Twitter. I think yesterday, you know, everyone's 91 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: like cy young maybe you know, so I think the 92 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 2: more people that are starting to notice him and you know, 93 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,479 Speaker 2: hopefully the pressure doesn't get to him. That's you know, 94 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,119 Speaker 2: first and foremost. 95 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, probably a little too early to be talking so young. 96 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: But another thing, and this might come maturity to me. 97 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: And Ace is sort of the leader of that pitching staff, 98 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 1: you know, think of Max sure as are justin Verlander 99 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: in their primes. Jared Weaver, you know, back when he 100 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 1: was in Anaheim. I don't know with Sorry, I don't 101 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: know him that well. I talked to him quite a 102 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: bit last year. He seems very shy. Obviously he's from 103 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: the Dominicans, so there's a bit of a language barrier. 104 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: So it sort of remains to see be seen how 105 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: much of a leadership role he takes. But certainly you 106 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,119 Speaker 1: can lead by example by going out there and giving 107 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 1: your a team a chance to win every time you start. 108 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: And I think when you know these caliber of pitchers 109 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: take them mound, the team feels better about their chances too. 110 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: So let's turn our attention to Logan o'happy. As we know, 111 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 1: it's been a rough start for the Angels catcher. He 112 00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: made three throwing errors in the three losses of the 113 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: two in Houston. In the first game in Chicago and 114 00:06:55,880 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: he had that controversial failure to challenge potential third strike 115 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: call and Sunday's lost to Houston. That was very costly, 116 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: very costly. But he did come up huge Tuesday night 117 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: with a two out, two run single in the sixth 118 00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: inning for the Angels only runs of the game. And 119 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: what I liked about that, I bet was not just 120 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: the result, was how he made an adjustment right in 121 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: the middle. He falls behind one and two to film. 122 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: Mayton is a pretty good reliever. Not sure why, but 123 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 1: Mayton has hung a curve and Logan just jumped all 124 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: over it, ripped that one hopper past Alex Bragman at 125 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 1: third base. You feel like with that start, Logan kind 126 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 1: of needed this for his confidence. 127 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, I think his offense when he's doing well offensively, 128 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 2: he definitely seems to do better defensively more than him hitting, though. 129 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 2: I thought the fact that he did challenge the ball, 130 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 2: I think it was to Bregman. Yeah, and it was 131 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: a ball, but it was I mean, it was literally 132 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 2: right on the line. 133 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 3: It was so close. 134 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 2: So the fact that he was able to just you know, 135 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 2: like jump back in and not second guess himself even 136 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 2: though it happened to still be a ball, I think 137 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 2: that was really important. 138 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 3: Like, I think that was more exciting. 139 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: Obviously, the fact that he got the the hit that 140 00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 2: ended up making us win the game is great for 141 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,480 Speaker 2: his confidence. But I think mentally, to see that he 142 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 2: was able to make the adjustment and challenge the call 143 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 2: rather than getting stuck in his like oh maybe it wasn't, 144 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 2: maybe it is, you know and freeze, that's a good 145 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 2: sign that he really is working on his mentality. 146 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 1: And to Logan's credit, he kind of downplayed the whole 147 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: redemption angle after the game in a conversation with reporters, 148 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 1: including Jeff Fledger of the Orange County Register. And I 149 00:08:55,200 --> 00:09:00,199 Speaker 1: think this is a lot talking about what happened last 150 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: year with him, which was a brutal, brutal year at 151 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: the plate and behind the plate. Logan said, crap happens. 152 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 1: It just seems like a lot because it's stockpiled into 153 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: the first few games. But there's no reason to panic. 154 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 1: I already went through that last year. I already went 155 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: through the ups and downs of it last year, and 156 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: I'm not putting myself through that mental torture again. You 157 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 1: just go attack day to day, attack the process, what 158 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:30,320 Speaker 1: will do tomorrow, and view the result as a distraction. Now, 159 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: we said many times how tough a year it was 160 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: for Logan, But is this maybe a sign of some 161 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:41,439 Speaker 1: maturity from him and a sign that moving forward he's 162 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: not going to let these these valleys affect them. 163 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,079 Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, I think the results will speak for itself. 164 00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 2: Right. I think it's one thing to be able, And 165 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 2: I think Sam Blum said it on Your Guys' podcast 166 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 2: last week, where it's like, yeah, sure you can. He's 167 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 2: really good at speaking to the media and kind of 168 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 2: knowing what to say and keeping his head up when 169 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 2: you know he's in front of the cameras and it's like, okay, 170 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 2: but what does that look like? After the game. What 171 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 2: is he doing after the fact. So I think the 172 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 2: results are going to speak for itself. The fact that, 173 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: like I said, he did jump right back in and 174 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 2: question the strike zone, that's great. I do one hundred 175 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 2: percent agree to that. He needs to take the pressure 176 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 2: off of himself. 177 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 3: I'm sure it was. 178 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 2: A little humbling that the Angel Stadium took his picture 179 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 2: off of the you know, the billboards when you go 180 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 2: into the stadium. I was personally really surprised by that. Yeah, 181 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 2: I think that that was uh for me. I know, 182 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 2: my ego would be like a little bruised. I'd be like, wow, okay, 183 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 2: you put me up there and I take you down. 184 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 3: You know. 185 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 2: It's not like I got traded like the other guys 186 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 2: that went off the wall. 187 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 3: So yeah, I don't know if. 188 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 2: If that all is part of it, if that they're 189 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 2: behind the scenes really working on his mental game and 190 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 2: just saying, hey, you know, that was a lot. We'll 191 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 2: we'll take it, you know, we'll take some pressure off 192 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 2: of you and. 193 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 3: We'll see how he does. 194 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 2: I think I'm really excited to see how he is 195 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 2: in person when the cameras are not on him while 196 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 2: he's warming up for you know, right before he goes 197 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 2: on the on deck circle, before he goes up to that. 198 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 2: You know, I feel like I have a really cool 199 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 2: vantage point of the players and how they're processing things. 200 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 2: Like Taylor Ward was always like so cool, calm and collected, 201 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 2: just so focused. So yeah, I think that'll be interesting 202 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,719 Speaker 2: to see on Friday night to see if I can 203 00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 2: notice any sort of difference. 204 00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: We take a little break for a word from our sponsors, 205 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 1: and when we come back, we'll talk a little bit 206 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: about the Angels bullpen and their third baseman. 207 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 4: This episode is brought to you by Fox One.

We're joined today 227 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: by Breezy Nolan, long time Angels fan and season ticket holder. 228 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 1: Angels did get some pretty nice relief work Tuesday night. 229 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,960 Speaker 1: Chase Silseath through a scoreless seventh inning, Drew Pomerantz through 230 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: a scoreless eighth, and I liked how Kurt Suzuki used 231 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 1: his bullpen in the ninth. He kept Pomerants the left 232 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: hander and two face the left handed hitting Pete Crow 233 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: Armstrong and uh, not sure why p Pca was trying 234 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: to bump with two strikes, but he fouled it off 235 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: for a strikeout. Then Kurt goes to, uh, Jordan, you 236 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 1: call him Romano. I called him Romano. I guess we're 237 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: supposed to call him Romano. And he gets the last 238 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 1: two outs for the save. The fans know, you know, 239 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: given the choice, I'd rather have a dominant closer like 240 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: Edwin Diaz or Mason Miller to pitch the ninth. But 241 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 1: sometimes when you're when you don't have that clear cut 242 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: ninth inning guy. You have your force to go to 243 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: matchups and and managers do stuff like this said, the 244 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: fans know of that, notice that stuff breezy and and 245 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: you think that was sort of a learning learning experience 246 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 1: for Kurt in his first year's manager. 247 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, I know that I noticed those things. I 248 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 2: don't know if that's like a Angels fan. You know, 249 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 2: we talked about it before that they do have a 250 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 2: lot of families and a lot of people that just 251 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 2: come for fun, So maybe the average fan wouldn't notice 252 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 2: something like that, but I definitely, you know, the people 253 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: around me and my section were always like lefty, lefty, matchup, 254 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: we love to see it, let's go. 255 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 3: But yeah, I completely agree. 256 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:48,520 Speaker 2: I think it's we're definitely missing Kenley Jensen's Janssen's presence, 257 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 2: so and Ben Joyce obviously and Stevenson who were not 258 00:14:56,400 --> 00:15:01,119 Speaker 2: going to be seeing unfortunately. So yeah, it's definitely. 259 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:03,560 Speaker 3: I feel like. 260 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 2: Kurt has a very good perspective of who to go 261 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 2: to because he is a catcher and to know, you 262 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 2: know what he would probably prefer in those moments. So 263 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 2: I think he's doing a good job at at least 264 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 2: from what I you know, obviously we've only had you know, 265 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 2: a week of baseball, not even but yeah, I think 266 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 2: so far he's doing a good job, and I think 267 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 2: that the fans who are paying attention can see that 268 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 2: as well. 269 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: One player who is not doing a very good job 270 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: is he on Mancatta, the third baseman. He's two for 271 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: seventeen in his first five games with two errors. Then 272 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: at the third ning of Monday Night six two loss 273 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,960 Speaker 1: of the Cubs Chicago head Runners, on second and third 274 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,440 Speaker 1: with one out, Carson Kelly lines out to parazit second. 275 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: Proza double clutches, but he gets to throw to a 276 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: third in time to double up the runner, but instead 277 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: of putting his foot on the bag like a first 278 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: basement would, Moncatta tries to tag the eye out the 279 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: runners safe. Moys's by Asteros hits the next pitch for 280 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: a two run single and a six to zero lead. 281 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: Pretty much game over at that point. Moncatta did hit 282 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: a two run homer in the seventh, but he showed 283 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: for me he showed a lack of awareness again in 284 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: the ninth, when there were two outs, two on, and 285 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: he failed to challenge a first pitch strike that was 286 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: clearly a ball. Daniel still had two challenges left in 287 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: that ninth, then why not spend one there? Maybe he 288 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 1: draws a walk, brings a tying run to the plate. 289 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 1: So it's been a rough start, Breezy. How are Halo 290 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: fans feeling about their third baseman right now? 291 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 2: I mean, I think Swilly said it best on Twitter 292 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 2: the other day. She was like, is our third baseman 293 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 2: always going to be cursed? 294 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 3: Like That's kind. 295 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 2: Of how it has felt for a very long time. People, 296 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 2: you know, they look really good on another team as 297 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 2: a third base and they come over and it just 298 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 2: we're like, where did where did that? 299 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:08,719 Speaker 3: Where did that go where? 300 00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:15,200 Speaker 2: You know? But I think at the same time, it's 301 00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 2: like pretty well known that Mancata is not super into it, 302 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 2: Like there's it's it's giving Anthony Rendon unfortunately, and it 303 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 2: looks like he just doesn't really want to be. 304 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,919 Speaker 3: There, you know. 305 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 2: And and I've thought Candelario, he he looked great last 306 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 2: night at third. He had a throwing error, I believe 307 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 2: at one point. But you know, I would much rather 308 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 2: watch somebody who looks like they're really in the game 309 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 2: and when they're making that many mental errors, especially not 310 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:56,879 Speaker 2: challenging a ball that was very clearly a ball that 311 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 2: shows that you're just you're not there mentally, and so 312 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 2: I really appreciated that. Yet again Kurt took him out 313 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,520 Speaker 2: and replaced him, and it's like, hey, you know, if 314 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 2: you don't want to be here and be in this 315 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 2: with this team, like the fact that Mike Trout is 316 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:15,479 Speaker 2: looking like Mike Trout again and we didn't go out 317 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 2: and like stack the team, and that there's somebody just 318 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 2: like whatever. You know, it's so frustrating as a fan 319 00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:29,640 Speaker 2: to just be like, we have been waiting for this 320 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 2: Mike Trout, you know, and the fact that like its 321 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 2: just that this is the depth that we have is 322 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 2: so infuriating. And I can't even imagine, you know, how 323 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 2: it feels to be on that team and and to 324 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:51,919 Speaker 2: know that you know, there was no support and you know, 325 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 2: it's just it's it sucks. 326 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 3: It totally sucks. 327 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: I think Mark Trumbo, our co host on the show, 328 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:03,240 Speaker 1: said the best the other day. He looks disinterested. Not 329 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 1: a good adjective you want attached to you as a ballplayer, 330 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 1: and that has to change pretty quick or we may 331 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,640 Speaker 1: not be seeing much more of you on around Anaheim 332 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 1: We're going to change gears completely right now and get 333 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: a fans perspective on some of the new dining options 334 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:25,720 Speaker 1: at the Big A, where the Angels will play host 335 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,400 Speaker 1: to the Seattle Mariners and Friday Night's home opener.

And 418 00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:23,680 Speaker 2: then two for those that are like trying to actually 419 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,960 Speaker 2: spend a little bit more money at the baseball stadium, 420 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,120 Speaker 2: the I forget like what they're called a Dodger Stadium. 421 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 2: It's not the Diamond Club. It's down like the third 422 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 2: and first baseline. Maybe it's a Lexa, No, the Lexus Club. 423 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 2: Is the Diamond Club. I don't know, but they get 424 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:46,680 Speaker 2: their own restaurant. And that restaurant, I mean the meals 425 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 2: that they make. There's like fresh salmon, and I mean 426 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,399 Speaker 2: just I've I've have so many pictures on my phone 427 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 2: of the different types of food that both stadiums provide people. 428 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,199 Speaker 3: With that are looking to spend a little bit more money. 429 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 2: I know several people in the dugout suites that are 430 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 2: spending a lot of money and their menu was like, 431 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,399 Speaker 2: you know, chicken tenders and pizza, and they're like, we 432 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 2: don't even want to order this, you know, like for 433 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 2: the caliber of people that they get in those suites 434 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,959 Speaker 2: and that they're you know, hey guys, this is what 435 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 2: we're offering you. It just you know, they're I've heard, 436 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,239 Speaker 2: you know, I've had a lot of conversations with them. 437 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 2: They're just like, it doesn't make sense why we're not treated, 438 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 2: you know, differently, that we should be getting different types 439 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 2: of menu options. So that's what I'm here to do. 440 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 2: I'm here to speak for them because they're not being heard. 441 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:50,640 Speaker 1: What healthier options could Anaheim provide that maybe Petco Park 442 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: and Dodger Stadium were. 443 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 2: Offering, you know, to me, it's more so like the 444 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:03,679 Speaker 2: way that they go about it, where they're providing like 445 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 2: a bunch of different side dishes and then people can 446 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 2: go up and just choose them. And I know it's 447 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:16,359 Speaker 2: kind of similar in the Diamond Club, but any time 448 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,479 Speaker 2: I've gone, they still don't have a lot of gluten 449 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,200 Speaker 2: free options or dairy free options, you know, like I'd 450 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 2: have to go talk to somebody on the side and 451 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 2: then they will go and make me something like and 452 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 2: that just feels gross too, Like I don't want to 453 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 2: have to go and like feel like, oh a bother 454 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 2: and have somebody make me a special dish like that 455 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,280 Speaker 2: just seems kind of ridiculous. Get with the times, a 456 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 2: lot of people have dietary issues. 457 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 3: And you know, and. 458 00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 2: Just just have them available, you know. 459 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: So well, I have to say, as a fan growing 460 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 1: up in the sixties and seventies to see things at 461 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,239 Speaker 1: the ballpark like beef strogging off and lobster reps. I mean, 462 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: when I was a kid, I want to Shaye Stadium 463 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: and Yankee Stadium. I think the fair pretty much consisted 464 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 1: of cold hot thugs, those huge pretzels, knishes which were 465 00:27:08,440 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 1: kind of cool, peanuts, and cracker Jack, chocolate malts. That's 466 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 1: about it. But you're in a different generation here, and 467 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 1: so are baseball fans. Like how important is food to 468 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 1: the fan experience right now? 469 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 3: I think it's huge. 470 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 2: You know, if at the end of the day games 471 00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 2: are starting at six thirty eight, you kind of have 472 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 2: to get there around like five point thirty five forty five. 473 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 2: You know that you're going to be eating dinner there, 474 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:43,159 Speaker 2: And if you're spending a significant amount of money on 475 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 2: a ticket, like you want to be able to have 476 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 2: a nice meal. And I know, especially as a season 477 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 2: ticket holder, I'm there all the time, and like the 478 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 2: last thing I want to do is eat a chicken 479 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 2: tender every night of the week, you know, like I 480 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 2: will literally feel so sick that week is over. 481 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:04,880 Speaker 1: Nine year old might like that. A nine year old 482 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: might like that menu, but. 483 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 2: Totally yeah, but not me, you know, I will. I 484 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 2: will be very inflamed and very upset and uh yeah 485 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 2: and so and I think that they're kind of I 486 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 2: think that's why some season ticket holders are giving up 487 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 2: their seats. They feel like they're not being thought of 488 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 2: in that way. I've had a lot of discussions with 489 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:29,840 Speaker 2: people about that too, Like you know, they feel like, sure, 490 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:34,480 Speaker 2: there people are the menu is directed towards those one 491 00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 2: off people that are showing up, and you know, oh cool, 492 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 2: I can have a Burger tonight, like it's my cheap nine. 493 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 3: It's like, okay, but. 494 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 2: What about the season ticket holders that do go to 495 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 2: forty games a year, you know, like we don't want 496 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 2: to have the same nasty cheeseburger, you know, three nights 497 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 2: a week, and you know the times are just that 498 00:28:55,560 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 2: people want healthier options. So yeah, I wish, I wish 499 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 2: already would would think of those things. 500 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna we're gonna close the show.
