Este 12 de marzo se cumplen en El Salvador dos semanas de la ratificación por parte del Congreso de la polémica reforma que elimina los aportes del Estados a los partidos políticos. La reforma, que entrará en vigor ocho días después de su publicación en el Diario Oficial, ha sido duramente criticada por la organización Acción Ciudadana.  En El Salvador, llaman “deuda política” al financiamiento que el Estado otorga a los partidos políticos para sus campañas electorales y su funcionamiento. Este mecanismo permite que los partidos reciban fondos públicos según los votos obtenidos en elecciones anteriores.“El 50% de sus ingresos o más”Hace dos semanas, el Congreso, dominado por los aliados del presidente Nayib Bukele, ratificó una polémica reforma constitucional que elimina esos aportes. La organización Acción Ciudadana advirtió este martes sobre el impacto negativo que esta medida podría tener en la democracia salvadoreña.Eduardo Escobar, director ejecutivo de Acción Ciudadana, explica a RFI los montos que los partidos dejarían de recibir: “En 10 años, el financiamiento público para los partidos ha sido de 113 millones de dólares. Esto en algunos casos y para algunos partidos ha representado el 50% de sus ingresos o más en un año electoral”. Democracia debilitadaSi esta reforma debilita la pluralidad electoral y aumenta los riesgos de financiamiento ilícito en la política, hay un aspecto aún más grave: la forma en que fue aprobada, advierte Eduardo Escobar. “La reforma a la Constitución eliminando el financiamiento público, fue la excusa para reformar la Constitución de El Salvador y permitir que el Gobierno, por medio de su partido político, pueda cambiar la Constitución en una sola noche”, señala. “Antes solo se podía reformar la Constitución por medio de la participación de dos legislaturas, una que aprobara, otra que ratificara. Ahora ellos cambiaron esto. O sea, en El Salvador pueden cambiar la Constitución con dispensa de trámite, o sea, sin debate en las comisiones, sin nada. En una hora pueden cambiar la Constitución, lo que quieran”, detalla Escobar. La consecuencia de todo esto es llevar a la democracia salvadoreña por un camino alejado de sus principios fundamentales. “Todas las reformas que se han hecho en tema electoral, incluido esta, están encaminadas en potenciar al partido oficial y permitirle mantener el poder sin ningún tipo de competencia. Y también en el ámbito político electoral, todo está enfocado en un partido único, un partido hegemónico, al estilo de Venezuela, al estilo del PRI en México en el siglo pasado. Esa es la lógica de lo que va apuntando el partido Nuevas Ideas y el presidente”, denuncia el director de Acción Ciudadana.

En el episodio 22 del podcast Mundo Data Driven, tenemos como invitado a Juan Eduardo Escobar, experto en visualización de datos y storytelling. Actualmente, Juan es manager de Go to Market en Kaseya, una empresa de ciberseguridad. Durante el episodio, Juan comparte cómo la visualización de datos ayuda a las empresas a tomar mejores decisiones, explicando cómo interpretar datos de manera efectiva y contando su experiencia personal en este campo.La conversación comienza con una explicación de lo que es la visualización de datos y por qué es tan importante hoy en día. Con tanta información disponible, es crucial presentar los datos de forma que sean fáciles de entender y útiles para tomar decisiones rápidas. Los datos, según Juan, no tienen valor si no se pueden entender y usar bien.Hablamos sobre algunos principios para crear buenas visualizaciones de datos: saber quién es la audiencia y simplificar los datos para contar una historia clara. Si la audiencia es un equipo técnico, los detalles importan; si son ejecutivos, la simplicidad es clave. Juan también desmitifica los gráficos de pastel, explicando que pueden ser confusos, y recomienda alternativas como los gráficos de barras y Sankey, que permiten una mejor comprensión y comparación.También menciona la importancia de usar colores correctamente. Usar demasiados colores puede dificultar la interpretación, y es mejor optar por paletas accesibles para todos. Menos es más: la historia debe ser clara y permitir que la audiencia actúe sobre la información de forma efectiva.Juan menciona herramientas como Power BI, Tableau y Qlik, y cómo elegir la mejor según las necesidades. Power BI es ideal para quienes usan Microsoft, mientras que Tableau destaca por sus gráficos impactantes y Qlik por su capacidad de integrar datos de muchas fuentes. Lo más importante no es la herramienta en sí, sino cómo se usan los datos para resolver problemas reales del negocio.Juan comparte un ejemplo práctico sobre cómo ayudó a una empresa de consumo a mejorar su distribución con visualización de datos, identificando patrones que afectaban la eficiencia y logrando cambios positivos. El éxito de una visualización, dice Juan, no se mide por su aspecto, sino por su uso y el impacto en los resultados. Los gráficos deben generar acciones que mejoren el rendimiento de la empresa.Además, destaca la importancia de probar las visualizaciones con usuarios finales para asegurarse de que sean comprensibles y útiles. La retroalimentación es esencial para mejorar continuamente y asegurarse de que las visualizaciones evolucionen según las necesidades del negocio.¡No te pierdas este episodio lleno de consejos sobre visualización de datos y ejemplos reales sobre cómo los datos pueden contar historias que marquen la diferencia en tu empresa! #VisualizaciónDeDatos #Storytelling #BusinessIntelligence #DataDriven #PowerBI #Tableau #QlikChapters:​00:00 - Introducción a la Visualización de Datos​03:01 - Importancia del Business Intelligence en la Toma de Decisiones​05:51 - Principios de una Buena Visualización​09:00 - Herramientas para la Visualización de Datos​11:53 - Mitos y Realidades sobre Gráficos​14:56 - Ejemplos Prácticos de Visualización Exitosa​18:07 - Cómo Medir el Impacto de la Visualización​21:01 - Cierre y Reflexiones FinalesPrincipios de una Buena VisualizaciónHerramientas Populares para Visualización de DatosEjemplos y Cómo Medir el Impacto --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mundodatadriven/support

Hoy en el Tema del Día conversamos en vivo desde nuestro estudio con Eduardo Escobar, Director Ejecutivo de Acción Ciudadana.

The Toronto Blue Jays have made their Opening Day roster decisions for position players on this team. Ernie Clement, Davis Schneider and Daniel Vogelbach have earned their spots, while Spencer Horwitz and Nathen Lukes were sent down in corresponding moves. The pitching situation could not be more opposite, with injuries lingering up and down the starting rotation and bullpen. How do you feel about the Blue Jays decisions on their opening-day roster? What would your opening day roster look like? The Toronto Blue Jays are nursing a TON of injuries as we move forward to opening day. Major pieces like Kevin Gausman, Jordan Romano, Erik Swanson, and Alek Manoah are all questionable for the start of the season. John Schneider has also been experimenting with different batting orders in the last few weeks of spring training, going through some trial and error to work out some kinks before meaningful baseball games come upon us. We cover this and all the major storylines for your Toronto Blue Jays. Your current Toronto Blue Jays roster: Vladimir Guerrero Jr, Bo Bichette, Kevin Gausman, Jordan Romano, Alek Manoah, Yariel Rodriguez, George Springer, Yusei Kikuchi, Jose Berrios, Chris Bassitt, Cavan Biggio, Justin Turner, Daulton Varsho, Danny Jansen, Alejandro Kirk, Joey Votto, Erik Swanson, Kevin Kiermaier, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Davis Schneider, Ernie Clement, Spencer Horwitz, Chad Green, Tim Mayza, Trevor Richards, Genesis Cabrera, Yimi Garcia, Bowden Francis, Eduardo Escobar, Daniel Vogelbach, Orelvis Martinez, Ricky Tiedemann, Zach Pop, Addison Barger, Nate Pearson, Nathan Lukes.

We have a guest for today's episode, a degenerate gambler, and sports fanatic, Skyler Peters. Skyler joins the boys in talking about the Toronto Blue Jays' success in spring training, whether these approaches will translate to the regular season, and who we think can continue to be productive at the plate throughout 2024. Which spring training standouts will continue their success into the regular season? With the trade of Santiago Espinal, we discuss who we think will get the opening day starts and 2nd and 3rd base this season. IKF and Cavan Biggio are more experienced, however, Ernie Clement and Davis Schneider have higher offensive upside that could be beneficial for a team that struggled to hit for power last season. Who do you see getting the starts on Opening Day? While we hope every Toronto Blue Jays player exceeds expectations this season, it is not realistic to believe that. We analyzed 3 players that we could see having a down year this season, due to age, lack of production, or lack of opportunity. Which players could you see underperforming for the Toronto Blue Jays? Do you think we should be worried about any Blue Jays players? Your current Toronto Blue Jays roster: Vladimir Guerrero Jr, Bo Bichette, Kevin Gausman, Jordan Romano, Alek Manoah, Yariel Rodriguez, George Springer, Yusei Kikuchi, Jose Berrios, Chris Bassitt, Cavan Biggio, Justin Turner, Daulton Varsho, Danny Jansen, Alejandro Kirk, Joey Votto, Erik Swanson, Kevin Kiermaier, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Davis Schneider, Ernie Clement, Spencer Horwitz, Chad Green, Tim Mayza, Trevor Richards, Genesis Cabrera, Yimi Garcia, Bowden Francis, Eduardo Escobar, Daniel Vogelbach, Orelvis Martinez, Ricky Tiedemann, Zach Pop, Addison Barger, Nate Pearson, Nathan Lukes.

After much speculation, the Toronto Blue Jays have traded infielder Santiago Espinal to the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for right-handed starting pitcher Chris McElvain. McElvain is a young prospect, being drafted in the eighth round of 2022, and spending the 2023 season in Single-A and High-A. With Ernie Clement's resurgence this spring training, and considering Espinal was out of options, there were not many alternatives to this result. Do you think the Blue Jays should have traded Santiago Espinal? Did the Jays get enough assets in return? With baseball season around the corner, we go into some Toronto Blue Jays Fantasy Rankings, going over where your Blue Jays are being picked, and whether we believe that these rankings are correct. We break down our draft strategy, where we believe Blue Jays players will be picked, and which players we are planning on drafting. Which Toronto Blue Jays players are you targeting in your fantasy drafts? Do you agree with our rankings? Your current Toronto Blue Jays roster: Vladimir Guerrero Jr, Bo Bichette, Kevin Gausman, Jordan Romano, Alek Manoah, Yariel Rodriguez, George Springer, Yusei Kikuchi, Jose Berrios, Chris Bassitt, Cavan Biggio, Justin Turner, Daulton Varsho, Danny Jansen, Alejandro Kirk, Joey Votto, Erik Swanson, Kevin Kiermaier, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Davis Schneider, Santiago Espinal, Ernie Clement, Spencer Horwitz, Chad Green, Tim Mayza, Trevor Richards, Genesis Cabrera, Yimi Garcia, Bowden Francis, Eduardo Escobar, Daniel Vogelbach, Orelvis Martinez, Ricky Tiedemann, Zach Pop, Addison Barger, Nate Pearson, Nathan Lukes.

The Toronto Blue Jays have announced their opening day starter for the 2024 season. Jose Berrios will be taking the mound against the Tampa Bay Rays. How do you feel about this decision? How will Jose Berrios perform? The MLB has come out with its first power rankings of the 2024 season. Four AL East teams have cracked the top 10 in the power rankings, setting the Toronto Blue Jays up for another tough slate of division games. Where do the Blue Jays fall on this list? Should they be ranked higher or lower? How would your MLB power rankings look at this point of Spring Training? The Toronto Blue Jays have been bitten by the injury bug, having 5 injuries to pitchers who are projected to make the starting lineup. After a season of unbelievable health for the Blue Jays pitching staff, it looks like the injuries are catching up with us. How will this affect the Toronto Blue Jays opening day roster? Which players are injured and how significant are these injuries? Your current Toronto Blue Jays roster: Vladimir Guerrero Jr, Bo Bichette, Kevin Gausman, Jordan Romano, Alek Manoah, Yariel Rodriguez, George Springer, Yusei Kikuchi, Jose Berrios, Chris Bassitt, Cavan Biggio, Justin Turner, Daulton Varsho, Danny Jansen, Alejandro Kirk, Joey Votto, Erik Swanson, Kevin Kiermaier, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Davis Schneider, Santiago Espinal, Ernie Clement, Spencer Horwitz, Chad Green, Tim Mayza, Trevor Richards, Genesis Cabrera, Yimi Garcia, Bowden Francis, Eduardo Escobar, Daniel Vogelbach, Orelvis Martinez, Ricky Tiedemann, Zach Pop, Addison Batrger, Nate Pearson, Nathan Lukes.

With Opening Day only being 9 days away, the Toronto Blue Jays roster should be complete, barring a mid-season trade or an impactful, long-term injury. This offseason was a whirlwind, with the highs of thinking we were signing Shohei Ohtani, to making a last-minute signing of Joey Votto. Every offseason move is important and can change the dynamic of the team, with every signing closing the door on potential big moves but providing fans with optimism about the upcoming season. With Spring Training coming to a close, we analyze every signing/lack of signing the Toronto Blue Jays made this offseason and give them a letter grade based on other options available, contract details, last year's performance, and overall team needs and impact. Your current Toronto Blue Jays roster: Vladimir Guerrero Jr, Bo Bichette, Kevin Gausman, Jordan Romano, Alek Manoah, Yariel Rodriguez, George Springer, Yusei Kikuchi, Jose Berrios, Chris Bassitt, Cavan Biggio, Justin Turner, Daulton Varsho, Danny Jansen, Alejandro Kirk, Joey Votto, Erik Swanson, Kevin Kiermaier, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Davis Schneider, Santiago Espinal, Ernie Clement, Spencer Horwitz, Chad Green, Tim Mayza, Trevor Richards, Genesis Cabrera, Yimi Garcia, Bowden Francis, Eduardo Escobar, Daniel Vogelbach, Orelvis Martinez, Ricky Tiedemann, Zach Pop, Addison Barger, Nate Pearson, Nathan Lukes.

En 6AM, Pascual Gaviria y Daniel Samper Ospina, hablaron del legado de Eduardo Escobar

The Toronto Blue Jays have so many impactful players on this team, many of them being all stars and among the leagues top players in the league at their respective positions. We decided to break down who with think will be the top most impactful players for the Toronto Blue Jays this season, outlining which players are most important to this teams success for the upcoming season. Who do you think is the most important player on the Toronto Blue Jays? What would you change on this list? Danny Jansen was hit by a pitch in the middle of last week, breaking a bone in his right wrist. This will keep him sidelined for at least two weeks and will result in him missing the opening games of the season. Joey Votto hit his first home run of Spring Training in his first at-bat of Major League Spring Training with the Toronto Blue Jays, then got hurt walking back to the dugout. Yariel Rodriguez also made his first start of Spring Training this weekend. We cover all this and more on this episode of Locked on Blue Jays. Your current Toronto Blue Jays roster: Vladimir Guerrero Jr, Bo Bichette, Kevin Gausman, Jordan Romano, Alek Manoah, Yariel Rodriguez, George Springer, Yusei Kikuchi, Jose Berrios, Chris Bassitt, Cavan Biggio, Justin Turner, Daulton Varsho, Danny Jansen, Alejandro Kirk, Joey Votto, Erik Swanson, Kevin Kiermaier, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Davis Schneider, Santiago Espinal, Ernie Clement, Spencer Horwitz, Chad Green, Tim Mayza, Trevor Richards, Genesis Cabrera, Yimi Garcia, Bowden Francis, Eduardo Escobar, Daniel Vogelbach, Orelvis Martinez, Ricky Tiedemann, Zach Pop, Addison Barger, Nate Pearson, Nathan Lukes.

The Toronto Blue Jays have some question marks regarding their starting pitching leading up to Opening Day. Kevin Gausman and Alek Manoah are both dealing with shoulder injuries, which leaves two gaps in this lineup. Bowden Francis has been lights out when given the opportunity to pitch for the Blue Jays, which leaves Mitch White or Paolo Espino to make a spot start for this team until Gausman is back. What should the Toronto Blue Jays do about their starting rotation this season? With Alek Manoah's struggles over the last year, there has been a portion of the fan base that has wanted the Blue Jays to move on from Alek Manoah, wanting Ross Atkins to trade him while he still has value. Other fans want him to start in the minor leagues, while some want to gift him the 5th starting rotation spot. What do you think the Toronto Blue Jays should do with Alek Manoah? Alejandro Kirk had a down year last season, struggling to find his footing after missing some time in Spring Training due to the birth of his child. Kirk did make strides defensively, being one of the best catchers at blocking baseballs last season. So far this spring training, Alejandro Kirk has been on a tear, setting his sights on another all-star season. How do you think Alejandro Kirk will perform this season? Your current Toronto Blue Jays roster: Vladimir Guerrero Jr, Bo Bichette, Kevin Gausman, Jordan Romano, Alek Manoah, Yariel Rodriguez, George Springer, Yusei Kikuchi, Jose Berrios, Chris Bassitt, Cavan Biggio, Justin Turner, Daulton Varsho, Danny Jansen, Alejandro Kirk, Joey Votto, Erik Swanson, Kevin Kiermaier, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Davis Schneider, Santiago Espinal, Ernie Clement, Spencer Horwitz, Chad Green, Tim Mayza, Trevor Richards, Genesis Cabrera, Yimi Garcia, Bowden Francis, Eduardo Escobar, Daniel Vogelbach, Orelvis Martinez, Ricky Tiedemann, Zach Pop, Addison Barger, Nate Pearson, Nathan Lukes.

The Toronto Blue Jays did not re-sign many free agents last season, only deciding to bring back Kevin Kiermaier for the 2024 season. Many Toronto Blue Jays fans wanted to see the Blue Jays make more of an effort to sign players like Jordan Hicks, Whit Merrifield, Matt Chapman, and Branden Belt, but no deals were able to get done. We break down which players we would have wanted to see back on the Toronto Blue Jays for the 2024 season. Erik Swanson was very effective for the Toronto Blue Jays last season. Swanson was a key piece to the revamp of this bullpen last season that struggled in 2022. Swanson should remain as one of the top weapons out of this bullpen again this season, one that should be top 10 if not top 5 in Major League Baseball this season. How important is Erik Swanson in this bullpen? Vladimir Guererro Jr has decided that he wants to bring the home run jacket back again for 2024. While the home run jacket is awesome when the Toronto Blue Jays are winning, it can be very corny when they're losing a baseball game. Ernie Clement is starting to gain some traction to make the starting roster this season, which could mean that there is a trade on the horizon for the Toronto Blue Jays. We cover all this and more on Locked on Blue Jays.

MLB On Fox released their top 10 shortstops for the 2024 season. We react to this list but also give our insights as to where MLB On Fox went wrong on their rankings. Bo Bichette cracked the top ten list; however, we believe that Bo Bichette should be higher considering his improvement defensively last season. Where would you rank Bo Bichette on your list of the Top MLB Shortstops? The Toronto Blue Jays decided to send some of their top prospects down to Triple-A earlier this week, including Addison Barger and Orelvis Martinez. Martinez struggled through Spring Training, while Barger had very productive at-bats, making good contact and hitting the ball hard. We also go into how Tim Mayza and how he is viewed across the league. Who would you have sent down? How do you view Tim Mayza and his role with the Toronto Blue Jays? The Toronto Blue Jays beat up on the New York Yankees today, cruising to an 8-1 victory. We break down the top trends of this game and how your favorite Blue Jays are performing so far this spring training.

The Toronto Blue Jays are nearing the end of their championship window, having zero success in the playoffs. The Blue Jays have not made any head-turning moves this offseason, maintaining that they believe there is enough talent on the team right now to win a World Series. What will this team look like next season if they miss the playoffs? Will Ross Atkins be fired in the situation? What direction should this team go in if they have another unsuccessful year? Joey Votto has signed a one-year deal with the Toronto Blue Jays. This comes after Votto made it clear that he was still itching to play baseball and wanted to earn his way onto a major league team. Joey Votto will battle with Daniel Vogelbach for the off-the-bench left-handed bat for the Major League club. Who do you think will win this roster spot? Would you rather have Votto or Vogelbach? Ernie Clement has been on fire this Spring Training, making a strong case to be a part of the Opening Day roster. He has soared past expectations when he has gotten the opportunity to play, being efficient while playing in Bo Bichette's absence. We cover Clement and all the Toronto Blue Jays stories you need to know about as we get farther into Spring Training.

We bring you our standings predictions for your Toronto Blue Jays this upcoming season. While the Blue Jays have not made a signing that has turned heads this offseason, they are bringing back almost all their pitching staff from last season. With the Orioles trading for Corbin Burnes, and the Yankees trading for Juan Soto, many people are speculating that this is a two-horse race for the Crown in the AL East. Do you agree with our predictions? Where do you have the Toronto Blue Jays ranking in the AL East? J.D. Davis has been linked to the Toronto Blue Jays after being waived by the San Francisco Giants. Alejandro Kirk has been getting hot recently, hitting a home run against the Orioles and continuing his strong start to Spring Training. Ricky Tiedemann made his first start of the year for the Toronto Blue Jays; we'll break this all down on today's episode of Locked on Blue Jays Your current Toronto Blue Jays roster: Vladimir Guerrero Jr, Bo Bichette, Kevin Gausman,  Jordan Romano, Alek Manoah, Yariel Rodriguez, George Springer, Yusei Kikuchi, Jose Berrios, Chris Bassitt, Cavan Biggio, Justin Turner, Daulton Varsho, Danny Jansen, Alejandro Kirk, Joey Votto, Erik Swanson, Kevin Kiermaier, Isiah Kiner-Falefa, Davis Schneider, Santiago Espinal, Ernie Clement, Spencer Horwitz, Chad Green, Tim Mayza, Trevor Richards, Genesis Cabrera, Yimi Garcia, Bowden Francis, Eduardo Escobar, Daniel Vogelbach, Orelvis Martinez, Ricky Tiedemann, Zach Pop, Addison Barger, Nate Pearson, Nathan Lukes.  Intro: 0:00AL East Predictions: 1:45Spring Training News and Stories: 25:28Outro: 38:31 Twitter:@Brayden5Ewasko@Carterfuerst2 Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dialedinjays Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…

Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker get into the news that the Blue Jays have allegedly signed former Reds first baseman - and Canada's own - Joey Votto to a non-roster invite at Spring Training. They discuss what it means for the rest of the roster, including for Daniel Vogelbach - could the team bring in Votto over either Vogelbach or Eduardo Escobar? Who needs to go for Votto to make the roster? Plus, they debate his clubhouse presence, and what it could mean for a team that already has Bo Bichette and others in leadership positions. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Joey Votto has not been signed to an MLB roster. Despite this, Votto has posted on social media, stating that he misses Baseball and is not ready to retire yet. Joey Votto is a left- handed power bat near the end of his career, that may be able to bring some power off the bench for the Toronto Blue Jays. Could you see Joey Votto signing with the Toronto Blue Jays? Do the Toronto Blue Jays need another bat for this lineup? Daniel Vogelbach continues to make his case as to why he should be a part of the opening day roster for the Toronto Blue Jays, hitting another homerun in his small number of plate appearances. Kevin Kiermaier went deep as well, while Bowden Francis was effective in his start and could become a huge piece of this rotation when considering how many pitching injuries the Blue Jays have had so far.

It is known that the Toronto Blue Jays struggled to hit with runners in scoring position last season. For this reason, Buck Martinez was talking about the possibility of moving Bo Bichette down in the order to be a guy who can drive runners home in clutch scenarios. What would a Toronto Blue Jays order look like with Bo Bichette in the three or four-hole? How would this change affect this lineup's offensive production? Tim Mayza was one of the most underrated relief pitchers in the MLB last season. His sub-two ERA was the best out of all the pitchers on the Toronto Blue Jays staff. Mayza played a key role in matchups against left-handed hitters late in games to allow the Blue Jays to get out of some tough situations unscathed. How will Mayza fair this upcoming season?

Spring Training is the perfect opportunity for young players to display their skills, and build a case to try to crack the opening day roster for the 2024 MLB season.

We are one month away from regular-season baseball, and Matt Chapman has still not signed with any team.

Yusei Kikuchi has started Spring Training with a BANG, picking up from where he left off last season. Kikuchi is in the final year of his contract with the Toronto Blue Jays, finishing off a very team-friendly contract. The Toronto Blue Jays have some Major League-ready pitching depth, but Kikuchi has proven that he can be a reliable MLB starter throwing from the left side. Should the Toronto Blue Jays extend Yusei Kikuchi? What would this rotation look like without Kikuchi? The MLB has signed a new contract to move off Nike MLB jerseys, transitioning into a new contract with Fanatics. These jerseys have gotten a ton of negative reviews, considering the pants are see-through, the material is cheap and some numbers on the back of jerseys are off-centered.

Alek Manoah made his First Spring Training start of the 2024 season, and it did not go well. Manoah struggled to locate his pitches once again, hitting three batters over one and two-thirds innings. It is still very early in Spring Training, however, these are the same issues that haunted Alek Manoah throughout this past season.

The Los Angeles Angels really did their best to suck the life out of being a fan on Monday night against the Texas Rangers. They might be forgiven for having a tough time against future Hall of Famer Max Scherzer, but it was more than that; it was the poor play on the field, the shoddy defense, and the mental mistakes that really made it hard to root for them. Patrick Sandoval had a short night, the Halos mustered up 1 hit, and Eduardo Escobar had to pitch to finish the game. Well, we've got the recap for you, for better or worse, in segment 1!Then, over the course of the frustrating season, much has been made of the Angels hitting and pitching coaches, Marcus Thames and Matt Wise, and the jobs they've done. So, we've ran the numbers, and we've got the results - what's worked, and what hasn't? Who can keep their job, and who absolutely needs to go? You probably already know, but we've got the stats for you and what they tell us fans in segments 2 and 3!GET IN OUR VOICEMAIL! CALL US: (714) 409-6396Tell us what's on your mind!Give us a follow @LockedOnAngels on Twitter, and for the best Angels memes around, connect with us on Instagram and Twitter @SuperHaloBros!Super Halo Bros.

The Los Angeles Angels announced Wednesday that they aren't trading Shohei Ohtani, and it certainly seemed to infuse the team with a fire we've been needing! The Halos swept the Detroit Tigers after taking both games of the doubleheader on Thursday, and it began with a complete-game shutout from Shohei Ohtani on the mound! With his dominant 1-hit performance and homers supplied from Taylor Ward and 3 RBIs from Trey Cabbage, Ohtani cruised to the end of the game on 111 pitches! In Game 2, the Angels continued to add on the offense with homers from not one but TWO Shohei Ohtani home runs, Hunter Renfroe and Eduardo Escobar hitting homers of their own, and Luis Rengifo tripling his way to some RBIs! We've got the details of both games and Shohei Ohtani's thoughts on staying with the Angels in segments 2 and 3!Plus, don't miss our first conversation of the day, as we break down the Angels trade for Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo Lopez!

The Los Angeles Angels provided their fans with a roller coaster of a weekend, only managing one win out of three games against the Colorado Rockies, but set franchise records with their lone win on Saturday. Not only that, but they've added Eduardo Escobar from the Mets and Mike Moustakas from the Rockies to their roster after a pair of trades, in addition to calling up David Fletcher from AAA. In segment 1, we'll get you up to speed with all the new additions and what they can do for our Halos moving forward!Then, in segment 2, we're talking about the loss on Friday and how the Angels lost the lead after a somewhat decent outing from Patrick Sandoval that kept them in the game. We'll also discuss the Angels pouring on the offense on Saturday, as they set new franchise records for hits in a game and runs scored, while every starter came away with a hit and an RBI! We'll tell you how it all went down!Plus, Sunday's game was another unfortunate loss, as the Angels couldn't finish their late-inning rally to tie or take the lead. The biggest question left on the table was the decision to pinch-hit Luis Rengifo instead of Mike Moustakas, and Jon and Mike will discuss that in segment 3.GET IN OUR VOICEMAIL! CALL US: (714) 409-6396Tell us what's on your mind!Give us a follow @LockedOnAngels on Twitter, and for the best Angels memes around, connect with us on Instagram and Twitter @SuperHaloBros!Super Halo Bros.
