Would love Odorizzi. I've heard that as well. Apparently, there are a handful of teams around the league that are looking into it due to last year and the effects it could have on guys throwing near normal innings this year... I don't think it'll happen for us over a consistent period of the season, but we may see it implemented here/there during the grueling parts of the schedule. I do think we're going to see a lot of 'piggy back' starts with our BOR (4/5 starters) though, as Mikolas is coming off the injury and a lot of arms in Reyes, Woodfrord, Ponce, etc. that may need it.

Cardinals have been interested in him for years, being the home area kid too... Problem is, he's got a lot of teams showing interest. Angels, Red Sox, Blue Jays, Giants, Twins, Phillies and Mets have all been linked to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWood21 Posted February 5, 2021 Author Share Posted February 5, 2021 Fowler for just under $2M is pretty solid deal. Disappointing that Fowler never lived up to his contract. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disappointing that Fowler never lived up to his contract. That's a real good buy low deal for the Angels with him going into a contract year. He had two years here where he was league average (2019) or above (2017).This solidifies a clear playing time path for the young guys O'Neill, Thomas, Bader and Carlson... Probably frees up a little extra cash for the Molina deal, or to go get another SP... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is coming from one of the people who was preaching for us to re-sign him at the time... That experiment didn't pan out here and they've moved on. They're going with the young OF unless they can land a short-term economically friendly deal for a vet late into this process... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cardinals aren't going to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holt_bruce81 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I think the 40-man is at 37 players right now. And that’s with Molina signing and Hudson being put on the 60-Day IL. Both moves were all expecting the team to make. SP and a bench bat and call it an offseason? @kgarrett12486 The more I think about the potential of a 6-man rotation, the more I like It.

I’m still convinced of it, and while I get the move, I still don’t get it at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A middle to BOR starter and a left handed bench/platoon bat... I'm down for trying the 6 man, but don't think we will. They're gonna wanna get the most starts out of Flaherty and Waino they can...
