I’d say I’m justified in my anger.
Sure, I get how you feel. I guess I would have felt that in September, not now.

It's not like they didn't try. David Fletcher didn't maintain the early results, Trout has been getting hurt a lot lately, and Rendon has been getting hurt a lot since he signed his own megadeal. Andrelton Simmons forgot how to hit, Adell hasn't developed, the trade for Justin Upton never worked.

It was kind of cool when Seattle would come down here (I am a Mariners fan) and Angel fan friends would talk about going.

"Let's go to the game on this day?"
"No, let's go to this one. Ohtani's pitching!"

Try to be happy that it happened, not sad that it's over.
