Gameday Rant Thread - Angels vs Astros - April 6, 2014

[southpaw]

I want Weaver to stop giving up HRs.

And I want our offense to start hitting them

[bloodbrother]

I'm honestly starting to wonder about Albert's age. Dude got old....real fast

 

41 year old Ibanez is faster than him and looks more athletic than him

Gubi makes me long for the return of the Wonder Dog

[OregonLAA]

Has Albert hit one hard ball yet this year?

Albert is FAT.  You can see his boobs jiggling through his jersey when he runs.  He's not only old, but out of shape.

Calhoun-Iannetta-Trout-Hamilton-Pujols-Freese-Ibanez-Kendrick-Aybar

That's what I would like to see assuming Calhoun gets his head out of his ass too.

[Season Over]

Pujols might need to sit one out, he looks like a train wreck.

It kind of worked in 2012.

[Quinlanforthewin]

I'd rather have Cowgill, Long, or Green DH than Ibanez.  What are we hoping to accomplish giving a shitty 41 year old playing time? I absolutely did not understand when we signed him.  

[NrM]

Loving the Astros commentators. 

 

 

So glad I have mlb.tv so I don't have to listen to gubi.

Just because Iannetta can work a count doesn't mean he should hit second.  He can't do anything other than that.

I've felt this way since the first time I heard him.

[QuinlansMinion]

I really feel like were going to struggle against any decent pitcher we face this season.  Anyone can beat up on crappy Astros pitching.  Feldman is decent though.

[Quinlanforthewin]

It never gets old seeing a frustrated pitcher throw the ball into right field on a bunt

[Season Over]

It's bullpen time!

[jsnpritchett]

Nice toss, Weave.

[bloodbrother]

So after Skaggs gem it's right back to square one with this rotation. Pen has to come into the game in the 6th again

Me too! Except for the Wayne's brother who took up an inning. 

[The God of Runs]

Weaver is the most overrated ace in the history of baseball.

Who has been in contention for the Cy Young 2 out of the past 3 years?????

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

Alden GonzalezVerified account ‏@Alden_Gonzalez

Albert Pujols still rolling over. Has hit grounders to the left side in seven of 11 plate appearances in this series. #Angels

@VernonWells10: @Alden_Gonzalez I could do that too!

Lol

[Redondo]

Weaver with 5 hits, 4 HR's. Not many hits but lots of damage

 

And of course we have only 1 run. Would be totally different if were able to score some runs.

[bloodbrother]

How Freese didn't crush that hanging curve I have no idea

[robblin17]

Just because Iannetta can work a count doesn't mean he should hit second. He can't do anything other than that.

And who else do we have that can hit second? We literally have no one other than Trout.

[CaliAngel]

I don't know what to say about Pujols other than he needs to start understanding that his old habits aren't working and he needs to get some new ones fast for the good of the team.

 

All he should be thinking about is base hits, clutch hitting, working counts, getting on base.
