Ty Buttrey has been a friend of Halos Heaven since being traded to the Angels last year. He did this interview before even debuting with the team. He also logged in and did a live chat with us over the off season.
And on what would later become one of the most memorable days in Angels history, Ty called me last Friday (July 12th) to catch up on all things Angels. Always personable, always generous with his time and insights, he shied away from no question. But out of respect for the obvious emotion he felt, the bond within the team, we kept the passing of Tyler Skaggs to one question.
