He already said he loves them failing. To each his/her own, but damn. I'd rather be massively wrong about the team and have them be successful.
Winning is what matters. And this team is in a quick free fall.
Taking pleasure out of failure is just plain odd, TO ME. And for the record, I'm very pissed off about this team.

In the last 13 games Mariners hitters have struck out 143 times. The astros have only struck out 532 times all season (Seattle 814). That means in the last 13 games the Mariners have got nearly 27% of the astros total from the whole year.

You cannot go ALL pitching and ignore the hitting or you end up like the Mariners.

Windbag dipoto blew smoke up everyone's asses in the offseason like he always does and the fans have the memory of a goldfish and always fall for his dumb shit. The guy should be managing a used car lot somewhere.

I have a friend who's a huge Angels fan. Pretty much everything she warned me about DipSHITpoto has been accurate.

I agree with what matters.
The "loves them failing" was a Dipoto thing. I can't believe it is anything directed towards the players themselves.

In fairness the Angels are just a mess from ownership down. Don't think they've made the play offs since he left.

Woo has been put on the 15 day IL. Honestly, it's a lot better news that it's not his arm. He was throwing 97 before pulling the Hammy. This could have been a lot worse, imo.

This article doesn't paint a rosy picture of Dipoto's tenure with the Angels - https://crashingthepearlygates.com/... seasons (if,very different opinion on Dipoto.

I didn't like him as a GM hire for the Mariners and now his puppet Justin Hollander is the GM while Dipoto moved up to president of baseball operations. Those two are baseball's "Dumb and Dumber" duo.

Until they prove differently, which they won't, they just suck at their jobs. They will get leftovers. They will go on the cheap. NOTHING has changed.

Castillo sucks
Yeah, I don't think he's a true Ace, like what he's being paid to be. Wish we would have traded for Soto rather than Castillo like some of us wanted 2 years ago. This team with Soto instead of Castillo is a playoff team last year and better this year.

We all know that until ownership changes this will be the product we see.

What’s wrong with this team, besides the offensive, defense, batting, and pitching sucks?? Maybe this owner could clean house without selling the
team. If sold, there’s always a chance of the team getting moved.

It's called cheap owners and fans that continue to support them despite being spit in the face... See the LA Clippers under Donald Sterling...
