Gameday Thread: 5/23/14 Royals @ Angels

I read Trout's lips after the throw and he said "that one's for Troll Daddy"

[krAbs]

freese 2 for 11 since coming back...here we go again...

[tdawg87]

CJ has to be the most annoying pitcher on the planet, yet he still does well for whatever reason.

[rafibomb]

Sean Burnett sighting!

[tdawg87]

Clutchbar doin his thang

[Stradling]

lol

Yep

[Butcher'd]

Greeeeeeeeen

[Guest]

My eyes might be fooling me, but Sean Burnett is actually going to play for this team tonight.

I'm actually pretty happy for the guy, and I'm impressed he actually made it back.

...this team is going to be so good very soon (when Hamilton returns).

[tdawg87]

That was cool and then stupid.

[markb]

Green seems like a bit of a space cadet.

[EDinTUSTIN]

Great hit, but why would he just drift off of second? LOL Still, that was clutch, a nice cushion is developing.

[tdawg87]

On one hand, I agree with Sosh's quick hook here. On the other hand, why is Kevin Jepsen still facing major league hitters

[Bruce Nye]

Oh Jeppy....Strike out, wild pitch.

 

Now for Burnett

[bloodbrother]

Sosh handled Jepsen perfectly there

[tdawg87]

Well, he did his job there.

 

Time for the leper to get an out.

[southpaw]

Hope his arm doesn't fall off. Seriously though, nice to see him back.

[bloodbrother]

I just turned the game on last inning and saw Burnett warming up. Now he's coming into the game

 

I feel like I'm finally seeing a unicorn or something.

[Guest]

Burnett must be nervous as hell.

[Docwaukee]

ironically, Burnett's last game in the majors was vs. KC on May 26th. 

[EDinTUSTIN]

Thanks, Sosh. I had 4 points riding on CJ finishing the last two outs of this 7th inning. Damn! If this doesn't work out, Mike, plan on a "Time to Predict Scoiscia's Post Game Comments" thread. LOL  Not really, health of the players is more important than my first 4 pointer. Mike has managed this team superbly this season, like the Scoiscia of yesteryear. This team is playing real good ball.

[bloodbrother]

Damn, hope he can stay healthy. Gives them a great lefty specialist

[Butcher'd]

Looks like we've found ourselves a LOOGY

[tdawg87]

He didn't die!

This mysterious stranger on the mound is no Josh Wall, but he will have to do.
