Gameday Thread: 4/28 vs. Indians

Herrera warming up? Come on. Let's see Morin

[jshep]

I still have no clue why Herrera is here

[Quinlanforthewin]

Another nice start for Skaggs

[markb]

Sometimes I think I'm the only Aybar fan on here

 

I like Aybar.  He's not a good hitter, but he plays good defense and seems to have that Nick Young type of charisma that keeps the clubhouse positive.

Dude must have been watching and learning from Jepsen

Hopefully, he can pitch a scoreless 7th inning.

Thinking along a similar line as AJ, I'd go Ianetta 3rd and Pujols-Hamilton 4-5. Would never happen though.

Interesting thought. Iannetta is patient and sees a lot of pitches which should mean lots of chances for Trout to steal, moreso even than with Hamilton batting behind him.

Assuming Scioscia lets him.  He did pull Santiago after like 77 pitches the other day.  Yoslan Herrera time.

Scioscia has been giving Skaggs a really short leash. He hasn't pitched over 100 pitches once this year.

Terrible approach at the plate, but he seems to come through in the clutch and he is at least an average hitter for SS

So how long are they gonna stick with Ibanez and Freese before they throw in the towel on both?

Not a day past September 2014.

Steve Finley will let you know

Hopefully not long. We have guys that can replace them.

[Stradling]

Well Freese hit a homer yesterday and has two hits today, so how bout we give him a little more time.

[NrM]

Steve Finley will let you know

 

Garry Matthews Jr. and Vernon Wells also say hi.

I agree. but I think Ibanez should have a very short leash.

They'll probably start for most of this year. If they're benched, Dipoto will look bad for signing/trading for them.

[Quinlanforthewin]

ooooooo 99 pitches...how scary!

I actually would rather have Vernon (who is still being paid $20M by us this year) in LF than Shuck lately.

His two hits today were...uhh...not exactly a sign of breaking out of a slump

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

Scioscia better let him come out for the 8th.

[Stradling]

Yea I'm not watching just paying attention on my iPad. He hit the ball hard yesterday.

[Stradling]

Good job Skaggs!

[Quinlanforthewin]

C'mon now.  You know better.
