Locked On Angels - Daily Podcast On The Los Angeles Angels

Shohei Ohtani made it clear: he wants to get to the World Series with the Los Angeles Angels! But... the national baseball media seemed to leave out that crucial detail when reporting on Ohtani's quote. He spoke on whether or not his experience in the World Baseball Classic changed his outlook on the team and his free agency, and he made it clear that it's his goal to focus on winning a championship and helping the Halos get there this year. We'll break down his quote, share our responses, and talk about what it may mean for this season. Then, there are some crucial roster decisions to make before Thursday, and many Halos are on the cusp. Mike and Jon will break down who is remaining with the team and how they would fill the remaining spots on the roster in segment 2! Plus, it's the last weekend of Spring Training, and the Angels played two in Arizona and one against the Dodgers in LA! We'll recap all the action and share the highlights with you in segment 3!

There's lots of other roster talk as well, including Jon's favorite addition of the offseason, who's on the bench, and who will start at shortstop on Opening Day!

We Los Angeles Angels fans have HAD ENOUGH of the garbage takes about our favorite players and team. Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout deserve better, and Today on Locked On Angels, Jon dresses down the doubters and the haters and their absolute garbage baseball takes in segment 1! Hold onto your butts, because it's rant time! Then, with the added depth the Halos brought in over the offseason, they'll be able to withstand injuries much better, but it also allows them to play lefty-righty matchups much better if they choose to do so. We'll share which players are strong hitters against lefties, such as Brandon Drury and Luis Rengifo, and provide some insight into how they may play in 2023! Plus, now that we know the matchups, what could the Angels' lineup look like this season, and what options do they have off the bench? We'll discuss in segment 3!

The Los Angeles Angels have 4 lefties in their rotation, but will this be an issue when it comes to facing right-handed hitters in 2023? On today's Fanmail Friday edition of Locked On Angels, we'll dive into the stats behind the lefty-righty splits for Patrick Sandoval, Reid Detmers, Tyler Anderson, and Jose Suarez, and we'll determine if this could be a potential problem in 2023. Then, did the Angels break Matt Thaiss? We'll take a look at his history with the team and analyze if he still will be a contributing factor to the Angels moving forward. We'll also answer the question of whether or not Mickey Moniak can break camp as the 4th outfielder in segment 2! Plus, with his stellar Spring Training so far, does Jordyn Adams have a chance to make the Major-League club in 2023?

The Los Angeles Angels have assembled a strong roster this past off-season, adding much-needed depth to the lineup in hopes of pursuing a playoff spot in 2023. On today's show, we're looking at which players will get the most time at each position around the diamond, from the infield to the bullpen! First up: the starting rotation, led by Shohei Ohtani. How would we, the Super Halo Bros., order the 1-5, and who's are 6th man? We'll tell you in segment 1! Then, we'll take a look at the outfield, run of course by Mike Trout, Hunter Renfroe, and Taylor Ward, but who we'll slot in as the 4th outfielder? Plus, we'll decide what we think the infield is going to look like, with the likes of Anthony Rendon, Jared Walsh, Brandon Drury, and Luis Rengifo among others vying for starts around the horn! Plus, we'll take a look at the bullpen and decide who stays and who goes. Does Ben Joyce have a chance to crack the Opening Day Roster? With a lack of options, how does Jaime Barria slot in? We'll tell you how we think the bullpen shapes up in segment 3! GET IN OUR VOICEMAIL!  CALL US: (714) 409-6396 Tell us what's on your mind!

The Los Angeles Angels have several players in the World Baseball Classic this year, including Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, Patrick Sandoval, David Fletcher, Carlos Estevez, and Jose Quijada. Over the last week since the WBC began, these Angels have dominated the highlight reel, and with good reason! Today on Locked On Angels, we'll discuss what our favorite Halos have done so far in the WBC and who has stood out on the world's biggest baseball stage! Then, after Team USA's loss to Team Mexico, many called into question the level of pitching talent that USA has on the roster, and which players born in the US are not participating. So, who could have potentially joined Team USA on the pitching side, and are we missing out on the biggest stars on the mound? Mike and Jon will discuss the issue and offer some solutions in segment 2 Plus, what comes next in the WBC? As the round-robin portion of the tournament comes to a close soon, we'll give you an update on which teams have advanced, what will happen if there is a tie, and what matchups we will see in the week ahead, especially an Angel vs. Angel matchup!

The Los Angeles Angels are gearing up for the 2023 season, and we witnessed some great baseball being played this weekend, including an impressive outing from Reid Detmers! He got to match up against the legendary Clayton Kershaw of the Dodgers, and as he did so, he hit 96 and 97 on his fastball. He's looked good so far in Spring Training, and we're asking: is he a secret ace of this Halos pitching rotation? We're also checking in with other Angels who've impressed, such as Taylor Ward and Kevin Padlo, the latter of whom could provide some much-needed depth for the Angels. Get the lowdown on Friday's game in segment 1! Then, we'll talk about Saturday and Sunday's games and a great 2nd start for Griffin Canning on the mound! His velocity was up from his last appearance in 2021, and he's making a case for himself to be part of this team in 2023. Anthony Rendon went 3-3 with a home run, making the case that we NEED a healthy Rendon in 2023! We'll also discuss Phil Nevin's comments about Brett Phillips and his place on the team as the 4th outfielder. Will Mickey Moniak or Jo Adell earn the position instead? We'll talk about it in segment 2! Plus, Arte Moreno's interview with Tom Verducci was released this weekend, and while not *all* questions Angel fans would like to know were answered, there were still some eye-opening comments made, including interest in Trey Turner! And, did it (dare we say it) endear us to Arte Moreno just a bit? We'll explain what we mean in segment 3! GET IN OUR VOICEMAIL!  CALL US: (714) 409-6396 Tell us what's on your mind!

The Los Angeles Angels certainly have given us a lot to be excited for in 2023, and on today's Fanmail Friday, we're answering YOUR questions about the Halos! Do Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, Anthony Rendon, and David Fletcher having good seasons the keys to the Angels' success? Is a Max Stassi trade possible? Which of Griffin Canning, Chase Silseth, or Tucker Davidson will take the role of the 6th starter for the Halos? And, with so many Angels in the World Baseball Classic, will they return to the Angels with a passion and fire to win it all? Will some of the minor leaguers having a great Spring Training become viable trade pieces should the Halos need to make a move? What's the latest with Bally Sports and their potential bankruptcy, and how will we watch our Halos? The Super Halo Bros. will answer all your questions on today's Locked On Angels!

Los Angeles Angels owner Arte Moreno has not given Angels beat writers an interview in several years, but has previously given an interview to Jon Heyman of the New York Post and gave an interview with MLB Network's Tom Verducci that will soon be released. Why has Arte avoided the likes of Sam Blum, Jeff Fletcher, and Sarah Valenzuela? The Super Halo Bros. share their thoughts on why Arte has not granted an interview to the journalists who likely know the team better than anyone else and ask what he might be afraid of answering. We'll share our thoughts on the matter in segment 1! Then, we'll share the questions we would ask Arte Moreno if we were given time to do so. With the decision not to sell the team and Shohei Ohtani's impending free agency, we'll tell you the important questions we would have for Arte in segment 2! Plus, YOU sent in questions that you would ask Arte Moreno if you had the chance, and we'll give our responses to those in segment 3! Locked On Angels listeners and viewers asked some important questions, and we'll share our thoughts with you! GET IN OUR VOICEMAIL!  CALL US: (714) 409-6396 Tell us what's on your mind!

The Los Angeles Angels are sending some of their top talents to the World Baseball Classic this year, including Shohei Ohtani, Patrick Sandoval, and of course, Team USA Captain Mike Trout! Today on Locked On Angels, we'll dive into WHY Mike Trout needs to take Team USA to victory in the WBC and how important it will be to his career. First, we'll discuss Team USA's 2023 roster and examine whether or not they have the talent to go all the way in the tournament. Then, we'll take a look at Team USA's history in the WBC and the roster that won it all in 2017. Is it comparable to this year's team and are there similarities? We'll discuss in segment 2! Finally, the Super Halo Bros. will share their thoughts on why this win is so important to Mike Trout's career. Is it silencing the doubters because Trout has only been to the playoffs once in his career? Perhaps Mike Trout needs a taste of winning big and can bring that energy to the Halos in 2023? We'll give you our viewpoints in segment 3! GET IN OUR VOICEMAIL!  CALL US: (714) 409-6396 Tell us what's on your mind!
