Bobby and Alex gather for this mini reaction episode to discuss the surprising sale of the Los Angeles Angels to billionaire serial sports owner Stan Kroenke. First, they grade the Arte Moreno era on his on and off field performance, before bidding him (and his FBI bribery investigation) adieu one final time. Then, they weigh in on Kroenke's ownership experience, his frankly absurd real estate portfolio, his Walmart ties and more. Finally, they speculate about what the timing of the sale might signify about the economic health of Major League Baseball ahead of a contentious lockout in three months.Join the Tipping Pitches Patreon Tipping Pitches merchandise Call the Tipping Pitches voicemail: 785-422-5881Tipping Pitches features original music from Steve Sladkowski of PUP.

Another frustrating night at Angel Stadium as the Angels fall to the New York Yankees 6-3 in 10 innings, despite a terrific performance from Reid Detmers. Detmers did everything the Angels could have asked for, holding New York to one run through seven innings, but once again the offense gave its starting pitcher almost nothing to work with. The Angels managed only four hits in the game, tied it late, and forced extra innings before the Yankees exploded for five runs in the 10th. The Angels answered with two, but by then the damage was done. And adding to the atmosphere: it certainly felt like Yankee Stadium West at times with all the Yankees support in the building. ToddFox talks about what it's like watching the Angels play at home with such a strong visiting-fan presence. But the game is only PART of tonight's show because the biggest Angels story continues to be Stan Kroenke's agreement to purchase controlling ownership of the franchise from Arte Moreno. The transaction is expected to become official in the first quarter of 2027, pending MLB approval. And now everybody wants to know: WHAT HAPPENS TO ANGEL STADIUM? There has already been plenty of speculation about a potential new ballpark, but there's an important distinction between rumors and confirmed plans. Anaheim owns Angel Stadium and the surrounding land, and the current Angels lease runs through 2032, with extension options potentially taking it through 2038. MLB reports that it remains unclear whether Kroenke would ultimately pursue a brand-new stadium or a major renovation accompanied by a larger sports-and-entertainment development. A report claiming Kroenke planned a $2.5 billion replacement stadium was subsequently taken down, and Anaheim officials said no such proposal had been presented to them. So ToddFox breaks down what we actually know, what remains speculation, and why Kroenke's track record developing SoFi Stadium and Hollywood Park makes the future of the Big A property one of the biggest stories to follow. Angels lose 6-3. Detmers deserved better. But with new ownership on the horizon, the future of Angels baseball suddenly feels a whole lot more interesting. Sound off in the comments: Would you rather Kroenke completely renovate the Big A or build a brand-new stadium in Anaheim?

Forget the final score for a minute — THIS IS THE NEWS ANGELS FANS HAVE BEEN WAITING YEARS TO HEAR! On a massive edition of the ToddFox Postgame Show on the HITI Network, we break down the Angels' loss to the New York Yankees, but the game has been completely overshadowed by franchise-changing news: ARTE MORENO HAS AGREED TO SELL CONTROL OF THE LOS ANGELES ANGELS TO STAN KROENKE AND KROENKE SPORTS & ENTERTAINMENT! After 23 years of Arte Moreno ownership, the Angels are preparing to enter an entirely new era. The transaction is expected to officially close in the first quarter of 2027, subject to MLB approval and customary closing conditions. Moreno is expected to retain an undisclosed minority stake. And Kroenke isn't just another billionaire buying a baseball team. His sports empire includes the Los Angeles Rams, Denver Nuggets, Colorado Avalanche, Colorado Rapids and Arsenal, with championships across several of those organizations. For an Angels fan base that has spent years chanting SELL THE TEAM, this is potentially one of the biggest turning points in franchise history. THE TEAM IS BEING SOLD. STAN KROENKE IS COMING TO ANAHEIM. A NEW ERA OF ANGELS BASEBALL IS ABOUT TO BEGIN. ToddFox reacts to the Yankees game, but we're going DEEP on the sale: What could Kroenke ownership mean for the roster? Will the Angels finally invest in player development and organizational infrastructure? What happens with Angel Stadium? What changes could be coming to the front office? And most importantly—can Kroenke finally turn the Angels back into a championship organization? After years of frustration, losing seasons and watching some of baseball's greatest talent come through Anaheim without postseason success, Angels fans finally have something completely different: CHANGE.

David and Damien discuss the New York Mets finally firing Carlos Mendoza, the Los Angeles Angles and their bungling owner Arte Moreno firing Perry Minasian, and another mid-June trade. Plus, the Cubs are all dying, and other injuries are covered around baseball. Don't miss this exciting episode.
The Boston Red Sox have had a disappointing 2026 campaign thus far. With lots of hope and promise riding on the backs of their young starters, the team has struggled to get off the ground. However, this past weekend, they completed a four-game mop of their bitter rivals, the New York Yankees, and suddenly find themselves right back in a Wild Card race that appears to be up for the taking. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman talk about the Red Sox's impressive pitching performance against the Yankees, including shutting down the only team in the American League with a run differential better than +25. They also get into why there isn't a ton of concern for the Bronx Bombers, considering the team is struggling to keep key players healthy and on the field. Also on the show, Jake and Jordan welcome Sam Blum from The Athletic to discuss the Los Angeles Angels firing general manager Perry Minasian, whether it could signal a change for the franchise, or if owner Arte Moreno will continue to struggle to find direction for his team. The guys then get into the Vladimir Guerrero Jr. problem the Toronto Blue Jays are facing, the latest update to the Yahoo Sports Power Rankings and recap all the other action from around MLB this weekend. 1:25 – The Opener: Yankees get mopped 11:49 – AL East shakeup 32:02 – Sam Blum joins the show 42:47 – Where do the Angels go from here? 58:04 – Turbo Mode: The Miz keeps dealing 1:04:58 – Power Rankings update Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
In episode 66 of the AngelsWin.com podcast Chuck and Geoff give their thoughts on... Perry Minasian was fired midseason, and the hosts unpacked what that says about the Angels' front office direction and power structure. The episode focused heavily on John Mozeliak's arrival as interim GM, with speculation that he's being brought in to help prepare the organization for a larger transition. The hosts discussed rumors that Arte Moreno may be positioning the team for a future sale after the CBA is settled, using the new GM hire as part of a broader "getting ready for sale" move.
The Mets fired manager Carlos Mendoza, the Angels dismissed GM Perry Minasian, and an MLB labor fight is looming — and the Sports Chasers break it all down on The Chasers Dugout Report. Objective, no-narrative baseball for the real sports fan.Host & Moderator Kevin L. Warren. James E. "The Angry 1ne" and MLB Resident Expert Alvin Clawson unpack the Mets bottoming out at 34-48, Andy Green named interim manager, players admitting they "failed" Mendoza, and David Stearns' failed offseason overhaul despite a massive payroll — and whether New York sells at the deadline. Out west, the Angels oust GM Perry Minasian and hire longtime Cardinals exec John Mozeliak interim, with the crew examining Arte Moreno's leadership and the franchise's identity crisis. Then the big one: owners propose contract limits, dollar caps, and no deferrals tied to a salary cap, while the union rejects it and counters with a prop-betting ban. On the field: the hot Phillies, runaway Brewers and Dodgers, the White Sox's 22-run night, Yankees–Rays in the AL East, a weak AL West, and the Rafael Devers–Giants drama.⭐ HIGHLIGHTED CHAPTER
