THE HOT CORNER
Merry Christmas, Anaheim! Los Angeles Angels owner Arte Moreno did an unthinkable thing, one that certainly will raise a few eyebrows of consternation among his peers and with Rob Manfred. Moreno did not hold the citizens of Anaheim hostage. He did not manipulate the city leadership into handing over public money for his own benefit. He did not put future generations of taxpayers on the hook for massive debt so that he could make a bunch of bucks for his own family. And he did not lift his team and dash off to some other venue in some other city and leave Anaheim with some big square destined to become 10,000 more condos that nobody else in the county will care to even know about, much less visit and drop their coin.
