So yesterday, Perry Manassian, the general manager of the Angels, was fired by Artie Moreno or actually not by Artie Moreno.

The new interim GM hasn't even spoken with the Angels owner, Artie Murray, no yet.

that was something that we learned in the press conference this afternoon is he was hired.

It sounds like he's been in conversations with Molly for the last two or three weeks.

What we're hearing between Artie and Perry that blew up and severed the relationship.

And, you know, to use a to use a, you know, a godfather term, Artie ordered the hit, I guess.

Well, okay, you know, to add to that, so they actually have been in touch with John Maziliak in recent weeks.

So this was something in the making, but from what I heard from sources is that there was an incident or there was a disagreement, and maybe it was on the upcoming draft and trade deadline.

And if you look at overall, Perry Manassian's tenure with the Angels, that's just, I mean, it's not pretty, dude.

Also, I've, you know, heard that, you know, he isn't thought to be – to have any really good executive experience as a GM or, you know, highly regarded in that area, right? That he's – so, I mean, you know, the proof is in the pudding, dude.
