The MLB Trade Deadline is approaching. The Angels are shaping out to be clear-cut sellers. Important decisions will be made this summer. If there’s a franchise that should not be trusted with making the correct decisions based on their recent track record, the Los Angeles Angels are the one. Bad drafting, bad trades, bad free-agent signings, and an overbearing owner have put the franchise in a really bad spot. All this dates back to Jerry Dipoto’s tenure as the General Manager in Anaheim. Dipoto gutted the farm system and he unexpectedly quit after a rift with then manager, Mike Scioscia.

Hey Angels, it’s Time!

Virginia fans of The Young and the Restless have asked where Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) has been. She has not been seen or mentioned in Genoa City for quite a while. There is nothing online about Sarpy's status, and Y&R spoilers for next week do not mention the character, so fans wonder if she has been let go.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

How can Astrology tell you about your worst friends? Astrology is the concept of using the placement of the planets and their related astrological signs, or the Signs of the Zodiac, to determine the course of a life. These placements based on your birth date, time, and location can give you a wealth of information about your personality traits and character and predict events throughout your life based on your sign and current placements. Of course, this is a quick overview, and doing actual natal charts and horoscopes is much more complicated. But now you have a basic idea of what astrology is.

Hoskins isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies. After recording a base hit in 10 of his last 11 games, Hoskins went 0-for-4 with a sacrifice fly during Monday's loss in the series opener.

Former Los Angeles Dodgers catcher Tucker Barnhart has been designated for assignment by their National League West rivals, the Arizona Diamondbacks. The 29 other MLB teams, including the Dodgers, have a chance to claim him. The Diamonbacks signed Barnhart to a minor league deal in early Jan. 2024. On March 25, the Diamondbacks selected Barnhart’s contract after he made the Opening Day roster as the backup catcher. While he may have earned a spot on the roster, Barnhart’s play was less than ideal for the team as he slashed .173/.287/.210 with a .497 OPS, zero home runs, six RBIs, and 14 hits in 31 games and 81 at-bats.
