WE'RE BACK! After a holiday break full of fun, family, and a little sickness (cough cough), the Super Halo Bros. return for their first podcast of 2022! There's plenty of news to talk about, both around the league and with the Los Angeles Angels, and Mike and Jon begin with the news from Jeff Passan about the MLB and the MLBPA returning to negotiations on Thursday. What's in store for the next round of talks between the owners and the players? (6:55 ) Then, the Bros. discuss well-respected MLB journalist Ken Rosenthal and the decision by MLB higher-ups to not renew his contract on MLB Network. What does this mean for us as fans? (14:17 ) Jumping over to Angels news, Angels beat writer Sam Blum of The Athletic reported the hiring of a new coaching staff, including Phil Nevin, 2002 World Series Champion and former Halo Benji Gil, Bill Hasselman, and possibly Adam Eaton. How does this shape our Angels in 2022? (24:20 ) Plus, Jon Heyman reports that Angels front office executive Ray Montgomery is going to slot in as the Angels' bench coach this year, an interesting move that might indicate the future of the team. (30:19 ) Some exciting news on the player and bullpen front; Ty Buttrey made it known that he intends to return to the Angels this season! How do Mike and Jon feel about this news? (37:26 ) Finally, we take a look at a "What If...?" scenario involving Kendrys Morales and the implications that followed his disastrous walk-off grand slam in the years to come. (42:09 ) Be sure to give us a follow on Twitter and Instagram @superhalobros for the latest fan-guided wisdom and Angels memes!
