Join us for a live chat with the Angels Director of Scouting, Eddie Bane. Mr. Bane will be here TODAY at noon (Pacific Time) to answer your questions about last week's First Year Players draft and what's going on in the Angels organization. Join the chat then and ask Mr. Bane a question.
Eddie was the Number One pick in MLB's 1973 draft. He has held several positions since retiring as a player, including special assistant to the GM for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays (1999-2003). He has been the Angels scouting director since 2004.
EDITOR'S NOTE: Eddie Bane refers to an Angel prospect being unfortunate to get "Tommy John" surgery in this chat. Eddie asked us to clarify that the prospect to whom he is referring to is pitcher Mason Tobin.
NOTICE: There were many technical difficulties in the questions showing up during this chat, however, Eddie's comments here about Angels drafting and minor league operations are still lucid and of interest to you hardcore fans, but it is easier to read this transcript as some comments by Eddie Bane rather than an ordinary Q and A chat.

Especially considering that Ferrari is spelled incorrectly.
I love this team.

If that is the case, it would still be easier to read if this commenter used only lower case letters
which would still only require one hand to type.

I'm still trying to figure out what a 6xl tshirt crowd is.
What do you need a fancy suit for, Charlie, you ain't got no job to wear it to.

Fat People = More Self Publicity?
I’m confused.
Although, it wouldn’t hurt to advertise on fat people. Larger visibility. But they seem to be a sedentary type of people.

Shirt the size of a billboard
It is pretty straight forward.

It was a poor stab at the guy who was making a single batch of large-sized custom Nick Adenhart shirts in the aftermath of the accident.
I love this team.

What is a 6XL TShirt crowd?
2. The answer is 2.

Oh well.

I was confused most of the time
which meant this chat was right in my wheel house. Even if I didn’t know the question, the information was illuminating and he’s seems like a real nice guy.
This season just seems jinxed. If it can go wrong, it does

You're not a dick
But you’re right about it being unreadable.

I read this after the fact, if you just read Bane's comments, it generally makes sense and you get a lot of good information
I’m liking these chats
