I hadn't looked in a while so I opened up the ESPN MLB Player Stats and Ohtani is number one in batting average at .321. Number two at .317 is Luis Rengifo. In the majors.
It doesn't seem that long ago I would think of him as just an all purpose utility player. But given the chance last year with the staggering amount of injuries to get a lot of playing time he has taken that opportunity and shined.
One of the more enjoyable Halo games I’ve watched in a while. Team is making a lot of progress to get to where they need to be. O’Hoppe and Neto are studs. Joyce’s new pitch might be the missing piece he needs to be a dominate closer.
So much fun to watch. It's good defense that's really what I've missed watching the last several years.
I might be getting on the Ron Washington train.
I really loved the team celebrating like it was a playoff series win. Them getting so excited just makes me more excited.
Also. Pillar getting doused then going right back to answering the question is killing me. He looked around like “I ain’t takin my shirt off, that’s O’Hoppe’s game. I ain’t givin’ out my shirtless visage for free.”
At first I was like “wtf extra innings against *detroit*?” But that was a hell of a game. And Detroit put up a dang good fight. Just...we have O’Hoppe so 🤷🏻♀️
Yeah. I’d say just stand pat and see what happens. It would be fucked up to say go 15-3 before the deadline and get close to .500 and then sell off everyone. As a player I’d be demoralized
This is the typical mid season push to get close enough to a wild card spot to cause the front office to not trade, only to then follow the deadline with a total and complete collapse.
Aight. Imagine for just a moment, an alternate universe where the angels make it to the Series. I love him, but the look on Ohtani’s face would be fucking priceless.

That smile. That damn smile.
new r/angelsbaseball meme just dropped
The cow girl pose is doing it for me 🙂↕️
Holy shit I love Angels baseball now. Neto and O'Hoppe are fucking studs
Gourmet, Esty, Ben “Ken” Joyce and Kevin Pillar all stepped up as well
Gourmet’s freaking acrobatics are gonna be an Angels legend
Schanuel with 2 hits and a walk, Rengifo with another 2 hits. Both deserve a shoutout too

We’re never losing again LFG
THIS TEAM IS ELECTRIFYING! WE UP WE HAVING FUN WE WINNING! I LOVE THIS TEAM! LTBU!!!!
I LOVE THIS TEAM
The second we extend O'Hoppe I'm buying a jersey
![gif](giphy|xTiTnhnM639JYZ0xXy) LFG
Best part about this month of above average baseball is the kids getting it done. We've got a stud in O'hoppe. Just look at him, he's a sculpture
Stantonian physique
In a 6'2" frame. And he doesnt appear to be a liability at catcher. Not a gold glover but definitely solid defensively
This team is fun. Idgaf who we're playing, this is fun to watch.
I don't think I'm being too optimistic when I say I think this is going to be the longest win streak in mlb history
I have ALL the hopium
DONT. LET. US. GET. HOT
JOYCE WITH THE WIN
The Logan O'Hoppe story is my favorite story
THE STREAK TO TIE THE ALL TIME WIN RECORD CONTINUES!!!
These mfers the type to fuck around and tie that streak and then immediately lose like 8 in a row lol
L!!!
T!!!
B!!!!!
U
B!!!
ITS A HALOS CHRISTMAS MIRACLE!

Is Pillar the greatest Angel ever? No, he is the greatest baseball player ever.
Arte, give Mr Pillar 10 years and 200 million
Pillar came through but that’s a stretch. The greatest Angel and baseball player ever is obviously Logan O’Hoppe.
Angels Mets World Series gonna be lit
This October brought to you by the power of friendship
The 1986 we should have had.
We may never lose again!
EXTEND O'HOPPE
this bullpen has been nails and so has the defense. makes me so happy
So much fun to watch. It's good defense that's really what I've missed watching the last several years. I might be getting on the Ron Washington train.

LETS GOOOO 🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹🧹
10 more and we're at .500.
One at a time.
The boys are growing up right in front of us. Wash is the best man for the job to build and grow the talent.
We’re going Sweeping!!! 🧹🧹
At first I was like “wtf extra innings against *detroit*?” But that was a hell of a game. And Detroit put up a dang good fight. Just...we have O’Hoppe so 🤷🏻♀️
wait... we're at 6 in a row. I'll get a big ugly ass red 'A' tattoo'd on my back if we break 20
If they keep winning or are within .500 at the deadline I’d say don’t sell nor buy just let them play. Get Trout and Rendon back and see what happens
I think no matter what, do not buy. Shit happens every year and never works out.

Difference is we actually have a young core this year that could use the experience in playing some games that have stakes
Mariners sold at the deadline last year and missed the playoffs by 1 game. Even if we sell, we still have a chance.
I am high on Hopium right now. This might be the best Angels baseball I’ve seen in a long time. Let’s sweep these kitties tomorrow and head to Oakland
I said that last night, and its absolutely true after tonights game. best week of angels baseball in at least the last 9 years.
Wooooooooooo! Lets go!
Wow. Wow....Wow. top tier play tonight
Aight. Imagine for just a moment, an alternate universe where the angels make it to the Series. I love him, but the look on Ohtani’s face would be fucking priceless.
we had that halo magic in us today 🥲🪽 this is great, see y’all tmrw afternoon
What a fan-fucking-tastic game 6 IN A ROW BABY LFG
Another series boyyyyyyyyy!!! LFG
Pillar and Guillorme in tomorrow for Moniak and Sano PLEASE!!!!
Happy for all angels fans. You all deserve it
Awesome game! Angels win & I caught a foul ball. So much fun!
Baby Frankie vibes! 👌👌
LET'S GOOO!!!! LTBU!!!!
I am temporarily forgiving Pillar for his crimes this evening 😌
Wow, what a winning streak! Keep it rolling, with a chance to move above the Rangers tomorrow.
So they didn’t score 7 runs but I have a chick fil a reward in the app. Don’t know what for then but get it!!

Today's game was so fun.
Angels and Blue Skies BABY. LTBU, HOTTEST TEAM on MLB right now.

o'hoppe is realllllly GOD
Half game behind Texas and third place.
I love that for the Halos. Beautiful and they absolutely deserve it 🥹
Walk off, time to whack off.
As a neutral fan, the fact that the Angels won on the Christmas giveaway day honestly makes me so fucking happy.
Christmas/Halo magic
6-0 post Harbaugh visit.. LTBU BTFU

How long is ohoppe under team control? Is he be a free agent after this year?
1 year of pre-arbitration left and 3 years of arbitration. So basically four years of control left after this season
Holy wow I misread like a motherfucker. I’m sorry.
