Gameday Thread: 4/2/14 M's @ Angels

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

@Alden_Gonzalez: #Angels lineup (vs LH): Calhoun RF, Trout CF, Pujols 1B, Freese 3B, Hamilton LF, Kendrick 2B, Ibanez DH, Iannetta C, Aybar SS; Santiago SP

Freeze needs to be batting lower until he pulls his head out. He doesn't deserve to bat fourth

[Homebrewer]

I think it's because of facing the lefty. They said Hammy would bat down in the order vs LH.

Will it work is another story, but that's the plan, anyhow.

[WallyWorld]

I'd argue tonight's clean-up hitter is currently the most lost at the plate of any of our regulars.

@Alden_Gonzalez: Burnett threw 35 pitches in pen, then 15 to hitters. Another sim game in Arizona in two games. "I felt like I could've gotten hitters out."

I hope Burnett doesn't tease us like Madson teased us last season.

Watch Freese go 3-4 with 1 HR 4 RBI's

Of all the above, Burnett has probably worked out the *best*

[FabulousFabregas]

I just got section 105 tickets for 25 bucks.

[JoJo26]

If the Halos get swept away by a bunch of no-names (sans Cano, Felix) the heat MUST be put on Scioscia and le Butchee. 

[Quinlanforthewin]

I get why Freese is hitting cleanup but I don't like it.

How's the weather down there? My gf said it was raining she works in the John Hancock building off Katella.

What's wrong with the site?!?!

 

Pages are taking forever to load. Anyone else having trouble?

[Quinlanforthewin]

Victor mentions CJ admits he didn't make the pitch he needed to make against Smoak last night...fails to mention CJ also said Cano shouldn't have been IBB.  These guys...

[The Dude]

Actually the did mention it right before talking about Smoak.
