Cozart to LAA

Cozart to the Angels

Oooooooookie doke
So Cozart is willing to play third base. The left side of that infield is going to be very good defensively. I don't love Cozart as an offensive fit in Anaheim, but he's going to be quite a bit different from Valbuena

Odds that Mike Ford is a better player than Ryon Healy this year?
Jeff Sullivan
10:57
Decent!

Do you think what Eppler has done in LAA is particularly meritorious, or do you think most of what looks good about Eppler is a) Simmons becoming a star and b) Ohtani?
Jeff Sullivan

Ohtani changes everything
Without him, the Angels look trapped in the middle. With him, it's so much easier to see them in contention

Cozart to the Angels, 3 years 38 million just broke as well.
Jeff Sullivan
10:58
Ah, the ol' Chatwood contract

Would you trust Jerry Dipoto to rip the M's apart in a rebuild effort? My worry is that his type [older guys with higher floors and lower ceilings] aren't the best way to rebuild-- or build-- a squad.
Jeff Sullivan
10:58
I don't think it's up to him
Drew

The Angels got Zack Cozart! They still in the ALWC2 for you?
Jeff Sullivan
10:58
Well, they're not going to be projected to win the division
Biff Bob Ertz

This is a silly exercise, but Kyle Lewis, Sam Carlson, and Evan White for Yelich?
Jeff Sullivan
10:58
Not even close

Think Britton will be traded before opening day? Or do the O's let him prove he's healthy first and flip him at the deadline?
Jeff Sullivan
10:58
The latter. His stock is down too far right now
10:59
All right, I need to get rolling
So thank you everybody for hanging out, and I'm sorry for what I didn't or couldn't address. We'll do it again next week at the same time, and until then, be well and have great days
