@JeffFletcherOCR
Shohei Ohtani has cleared out his locker in the #Angels clubhouse.

The Angels say they will have no information on what has happened until tomorrow.

speculation is that he's going to get his TJ surgery done now. He's also been out with an oblique injury since September 3rd.

That seems like a logical move to do at this time.   I don't know why they are being all weird about how this is coming out.

Angels front office is a disaster

Squandering Trout’s whole career is a hell of an accomplishment

Yup.. Trout also trusted the Angels' front office, unfortunately. He could have a decent year next year if he plays for a serious contender (barring injuries)

Angels announce he’s going to the IL with an oblique strain

Trout. Ohtani. Rendon. Who else have they wasted?

Pujols?

He went with a different procedure to reinforce the healthy ligament instead of Tommy John.   Plans to hit only in 2024, and pitch after.

Boy, that is really tough to put a value on what is a worthwhile risk for a whole lot of unknowns.

So worst case is he’s a top hitter. There will be bidders.
