About this episode
Will the Los Angeles Angels' offseason moves like Kirby Yates, Alek Manoah, and Grayson Rodriguez shake up the AL West and close the gap on division rivals, or will the Angels’ high-risk, high-reward strategy backfire in 2026? Hosts Jon and Mike Frisch, the Super Halo Bros., examine the division’s evolving landscape, breaking down Seattle Mariners’ shrewd pickup of Brendan Donovan, Oakland A’s youth-led surge, and the Astros’ bet on Tatsuya Imai. Key discussions center on offense and pitching rankings, and whether Mike Maddux’s hiring as pitching coach can overhaul the Angels’ struggling rotation. With the Texas Rangers boasting elite pitching depth and the A’s banking on young stars like Nick Kurtz and Jacob Wilson, the battle for AL West supremacy intensifies. Will the Angels’ new approach finally make them contenders, or is another last-place finish looming?Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
