Predictions for Oakland series

[Butcher'd]

I'm going to be positive and say we win 2 out of 3.

 

Gotta play our best baseball for sure though

[Stradling]

I'm going to say we win two out of three with at least two of the three games will be one run games.

[ELEVEN]

Sweeeeeeeep!

[Stradling]

We need Adam to give us his preview of this series.

[ELEVEN]

Last time we played Oakland, the comeback win started our resurgence. I expect these guys to do some damage this time.

Oakland predictions:

 

1.  A sparse crowd, very cool weather.

2.  Lots of foul ball outs.

3.  Flooded restrooms.

If we win 1 game I'll be happy

[HaloCory22]

Oakland takes 2 of 3. However, all 3 games will be very winnable games for the Angels.

[krAbs]

this has the feeling of one of those defining series. yadda yadda every game is the same as every other games, which is totally true for teams made of unfeeling robots. still, this series will largely define how our kids (richards skaggs) hold up under pressure. they put up some good fights, and we can easily win 2/3, solidifying us as at least a contender. they crumple? we'll have to fight to not get swept. i'm going with taking 2/3, tying the standings just before (hopefully) hamilton comes back.

 

that being said...oakland is cooling off fast. lets sweep their sorry asses and show them who is the best in the west. go halos!

[arch stanton]

We go in and bust their asses. Time to take back the division.

[CanadianHalo]

@Alden_Gonzalez: Asked Scioscia about keeping this same top three, with Pujols batting cleanup. No dice. "Long range, we'd still like to keep Mike [second]."

LoL of course. Why stick with something that worked. Probably see Kendrick back at lead off tonight and Ibanez and Freese 4-5. And for that reason I'm saying we either get swept or take 1.

[arch stanton]

Yeah they were only playing at 90+ win pace with the old lineup. Why not stick with something that worked?

[Punk]

Angels lose 2 out of 3.

[CanadianHalo]

If I didn't miss any games, the Angels are 6-4 with Kendrick as leadoff. I may have spoke too soon. Regardless, with how Howie has been hitting lately I prefer if sosh were to give him a day off or 3

I am hoping for the best.  I am not yet a believer that the Angels are a serious contender until they can beat divisional rivals.

 

Scioscia will dismiss it as "just another series."  If the A's continue their beat-downs, he will be right that it is "just another series-like the ones before."

 

I hope the Angels at least show some emotion.......

[katrinab]

i am hoping for 2 out of 3

their play vs the Mariners to me seemed kind of lazy and uninspired, last nights game was the really the only game i saw some fight in them

i am hoping they play with more intensity this series

[fan_since79]

Ibanez will go 1-12 while Cron will sit out one of the games.

[Hollyw00d]

I think we can win two out of three. Games between these two teams are always great...this is a statement series

[19HALO71]

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

At least two of the games will give me explosive diarrhea and the other I will turn off mid-game in disgust.

[Torridd]

I think we win tonight and lose the other two. However, Richards needs to be around the strike zone or he may walk 6 tonight.

[DW711]

Yeah, Richards is the wild card

 

A's win on Saturday, Lose on Sunday.

Well done SOTO!!

 

I needed a good laugh and you caught me off guard. Thankfully, I wasn't drinking anything while I was reading it.

Hopefully none of it overflows into the visitors dugout.
