The Los Angeles Angels are going to have many suitors for Shohei Ohtani this offseason, and the Super Halo Bros. take a look at another trade proposal, this time for Shohei to head to the San Diego Padres. Does the team down the 5 freeway have what it takes to get it done? Let's take a look!

Then, in 2022, Mike Trout tied the MLB record for the fewest RBI in a season with 40+ homers. How does this happen? A lack of runners in scoring position for Trout was the Angels' issue, and we take a look at how the Halos could solve this problem and give Trout more RBI chances in 2023!

Plus, the stats don't lie; the Angels' MLB offensive rankings at shortstop since 2019 are pathetically low. It's a strong indication that the Halos would be well-suited to find a strong offensive shortstop for next season, and although there are many great options on the market, are they real or fantasy? We'll take a look at the options and decide!

The Los Angeles Angels have the most incredible player in history in Shohei Ohtani, and after his unreal 2021 AL MVP season, it's very likely he could earn another MVP award in 2022. Shohei expressed his desire to get even better at the game of baseball in 2023, which seems absurd, considering all that he does on a daily basis! The Super Halo Bros. examine how this might even be possible and what Shohei could do to improve in 2023 in segment 1!

All offseason, there are sure to be a ton of trade proposals from other teams who want to have Ohtani in 2023. Today, we take a look at a proposal from a Dodgers' writer that includes 6 of LA's top 100 prospects, and we debate whether or not the Angels would, or should, take it!

Plus, even though it is fun to speculate on what it would take for a team to get Shohei from our Halos, Mike and Jon share the reasons why we won't be seeing him move in the offseason, and possibly not even at next year's trade deadline. Find out why in segment 3!

The Los Angeles Angels ran into a depth problem this season, and the lack of players who could step into the roles of players who faced injuries was the most prominent issue in 2022. While GM Perry Minasian acknowledged that the Halos have a depth problem, Mike and Jon want to share some examples of playoff teams that overcame adversity and utilized the depth of their rosters in order to provide for the needs of their respective teams.

We'll examine how the Dodgers overcame the loss of Mookie Betts, Walker Beuhler, and Clayton Kershaw, how Bryson Stott impacted the Phillies, and how the Padres dealt with missing a year of Fernando Tatis Jr. as well as making the blockbuster moves they needed to make to acquire Juan Soto, Josh Bell, Josh Hader, and Brandon Drury!

It's Mailbag Monday on Locked On Angels, and YOU sent in your questions about the Los Angeles Angels and the moves they could make in the offseason, including names like Clayton Kershaw, Jameson Taillon, and Aroldis Chapman. Do the Super Halo Bros. think they would be good fits in Anaheim?

Then, we take a voicemail about the 2021 draft and ask if Perry Minasian's move to draft all pitchers actually worked. We'll take a look at the stats and also ask which spots on the major league roster are up for grabs!

Plus, we discuss new ownership, a new uniform look, and a potential new stadium for the Angels and what changes we could see in the years to come!

With the end of the Los Angeles Angels season now here, Mike and Jon share some numbers that demonstrate what kind of team they were in 2022, and, some of these may surprise you! We'll take a look at the year-end stats and share the fWAR numbers that sum up where the Angels have needs moving into 2023.

Then, while the Angels just gave Shohei Ohtani a $30 million dollar deal for 2023, they will also have to pay their young talent in arbitration, including Jared Walsh, Taylor Ward, and Patrick Sandoval among others. Where do the arbitration salaries land? We'll share the details and provide our opinion on if these projections come in high or too low.

Plus, with the pending sale of the Halos, we take a look at the top Greater Los Angeles Area sports teams and see where our beloved team ranks among them. A Southern California sports team is a hot commodity, and Mike and Jon believe potential owners will be chomping at the bit to get ahold of the Angels and the potential for even more value in the years to come.
