As an Angels fan. I owe your community a huge thank you!! This man is the reason I am looking forward to 2024. Thank you for letting him stay in the game and thank you for loving him and letting him lead. I hope you all can root for us too because we need it!
The ANgels have done one thing right and that's hiring this man. He's a winner and has a positive message for life. When he says keep working hard and wait for an opportunity-- that goes for all of us in every profession. Put in the time and effort and usually good things happen. I appreciate being reminded of that.
I hate to see this man leave but i hope he turns the Angels around. I'd like to see them in the playoffs. I can remember rooting for them in 2002. It was an awesome series. Good luck to Wash! He'll be missed but he deserves everything he achieves.
Man this is exactly the type of manager that team needs. However will Arte Moreno allow Washington to have the input he needs when it comes to free agent signings and trades. Lastly just listening to Washington speak makes me want to run through a catcher for him!!
First MLB game I ever went to was the 1st of a 3 game series, the Angels vs. the Cleveland Indians and Bo Belinsky was pitching and won the only game the Angels would win in the series at Dodger Stadium. I went to the first game at the Big A in 1966. I noticed the Angels that won the only World Series they ever went to was won the year before Moreno got there under Disney ownership. It was Sciosia who took the team to several postseasons, but only one Championship, but won Manager of the year at least twice as I recall and had a .536 win average. He just stayed too long and retired. I'm sure he got tired of not getting what he needed as well. I'm afraid Wash will get the same thing.
there's a lot of good things I could say about this man, Ive been watching since HE PLAYED THE GAME, years before he started coaching and managing. But I'll just simplify his incredible passion for this game, this way: The Atlanta Braves would not have won a WS without him on their coaching staff. People talk about how talented their lineup was, without Acuna in it that season. Tnats true. But the main reason they won a WS starts with their pitching and DEFENSE. And Wash' is the one that made them defensively ELITE that year in their infield.
Been a angel fan since 79.... don't expect anything from this team in 24.... they should be awful 😞 but I will watch and l am rooting for Washington and l hope l am wrong about this Year 😊
Wishing the best for wash , lifetime Angel fan here , but the front office surely isn’t helping wash “run down the west “ truly hoping for some bullpen help before spring training , a nice bat behind trout would be helpful , thanks for having the new halo skipper on !
I fear it’s gunna be more of the same this team has added a bunch of mid players to the bullpen not much else…. Our rotation is pretty terrible lottery picks here we come.
@@Streez-00 I’m not sour on the young kids , I want to see them play , but it’s about team building , you don’t always have to have big name superstars , but every team needs a good bullpen , Matt moor is still out there , there’s other quality arms still available , build a good pen, and let the young guys grow under wash , the rotation is iffy, Sandoval has got to get his head together and get command of his fast ball , to emotional on the mound , silseth and detmers I’m expecting allot from both have great stuff and upside , can canning do it again , he pitched well last season if he can do it again we have a nice unit , I’m not sold on Tyler Anderson that’s who I’d like to replace , get me Matt moor , left handed hitter like Hoskins or belt , and 1 more reliever and I say let’s roll . Strengthen the pen the season will be fun
Wash is the real deal. The kids on the team - the Zach Netos, Jo Adells, Logan O'Hoppes, Nolan Schanuels - will benefit from his leadership the most. If the youngsters have anything in them, it might be a very good year (like the 85/86 Angels - with all the kids) ... if not, then it's gonna be a LONG year.
Rendon is simply taking advantage of the Work From Home program, originally adopted by Justin Upton, who introduced him to the program. Prop to Pujols. At least Pujols showed up early to work & hit inning ending double plays for millions of dollars.
As a life long Braves fan, I knew the day would come when we’d lose Ron….it hurts man. I wish Wash nothing the best! If it wasn’t for him our infielders wouldn’t be the players they are today. P.S. TF is this about him taking EY with him??? Dam Wash C’mon man
the perspective of baseball fans should be wary. too many arrows are pointing up for the dodgers and negative for anaheim. i'm getting the sense that the angels young team after losing ohtani will have something to prove in '24 and will start out of the gates breathing fire n brimstone, surprise a lot of experts, while the blue crew will start sluggish and cause worry at chavez ravine. imo ron washington will soon make a powerful statement
They gonna suck for a few years but so did texas before he got there and then they made the WS… its gonna take time… get trout healthy and then trade him for a few prospects give trout a chance to win somewhere else
Angels need to sign Clevinger and Bellinger. They should trade Neto, Shanuel, and Moniak to Mariners for Castillo. Move Trout to Right. Trade Adell to Reds for India.
All of Braves country will miss this man dearly 😪

@@Silent_E749 of course we will! Ron isnt the only former Brave on your team and let’s not forget all of us wanting to see Trout on the big stage

Yes it's sad to see him leave Atlanta. 🥺
I loved Wash in Texas! I’ll be forever grateful for our fun-loving 2010-2011 teams. He’s a winner.
Ron seems cool af lol
Hell yea, he does!
Not sure anyone can turn around a culture with Arte Moreno at the top, but if anyone can, it would be Ron Washington.

“I ain’t talkin bout no kissin and huggin”...I LOVE this guy!!
FT crew, Thanks for this interview also the Detmers interview!
Great interview! Love Ron Washinton, and respect his coaches. IMO LAA will turn around.
Always good to see Wash in Green and Gold.

Ron Washington is A1...salute!
I wish he was the dodgers manager… i Love this guy and the attitude he brings ..
I love Ron Washington
Top level coach
This is what you want to hear: someone appreciating his former team the Braves not throwing them under the bus. Class Act.
Been a angel fan since 79.... don't expect anything from this team in 24.... they should be awful 😞 but I will watch and l am rooting for Washington and l hope l am wrong about this Year 😊
let's gooo i love this
I just want to crack open a beer with Ron.
I see ron channeling Julius from pulp fiction as far a son his no nonsense attitude "I double dog dare you"!

When Wash speaks you listen
I wanna do some lines with Ron

Trade or release anthony rendone.
Wash is the goat. He needa cuss out rendon
For the angels to let ohtani
Walk away without getting anything for him is criminal should have traded him
Ron sign Bauer you can handle him!
That would be amazing!
That's up to his GM
He was terrible in Japan last year. Why would anyone want him
Well I hope his gm is listening!
He was 10-4 with a 2.76 era what's so terrible about that?!
As a Angels fan since 1974, I don't think this is a great hire. His best days are behind him, dude is 71 years old
Not true at all. You clearly haven't watched him every day. The man still has more energy than most people half his age.
@@williamabaker12 Why would I waste time watching some manager from another team? He's 71 years old, that's all I need to know about him
@@kendallevans4079 All you need to do is look at what Wash has done to the Braves infield.
10:30
It was hard to leave ATL because he had a mean cocaine plug lol
Anaheim is going to suck
They gonna suck for a few years but so did texas before he got there and then they made the WS… its gonna take time… get trout healthy and then trade him for a few prospects give trout a chance to win somewhere else
Its not mlb its black kids want to be nba and nfl stars.
Always hire or sign on merit and never on skin color and you will never go wrong.
Angels need to sign Clevinger and Bellinger. They should trade Neto, Shanuel, and Moniak to Mariners for Castillo. Move Trout to Right. Trade Adell to Reds for India.
Lol Angels should just trade all of their talented young players okay.
Worst idea I’ve seen this year.
