Gamethread 151: LA Angels at Minnesota Twins

LA Angels play Minnesota Twins. First pitch is scheduled for 7:45 PM.

Shohei Ohtani is scheduled to start for the Angels tonight. Ohta is tied for MLB lead in wild pitches with Alex Lange.

Angels owner Arte Moreno is considering selling the team. The team was 24-13 and tied for first in the AL West on May 15, but then they collapsed and manager Joe Maddon was fired. Sinclair Broadcast Group is trying to sell the regional sports networks for less than they paid for them.  Sinclair is in deep trouble. They are betting on future revenue and taking on too many loans. It's a bad idea. There's no takers. In every corruption case there's someone who takes advantage of the bribe. in this case it's Sinclair. they are in trouble, because they bet too much on the future and took too big a risk.

The Angels thought they built a team capable of at least making a run at the playoffs for the first time in Shohei Ohtani's tenure, but they collapsed immediately after buying at the…
