jfc, our 3B coaches and stupid sends to the plate.

[Lou]

According to the fab graphs article recently posted on these boards the angels have by far the worst difference between actual runs scored and expected runs scored, which makes Scioscia the worst manager in mlb. That metric has to be worse after the Freese Kendrick Cron situation

 

Fab graphs?

 

Sorry,  I don't swing that way sailor

[Homebrewer]

RUN IANNETTA RUN!!!

AWWWW

 

F'n Idiot.

[Halos of Anaheim]

He is so f'in slow..lol.

[tdawg87]

But in all seriousness, this team's execution is downright horrifying.

[Jason]

Doing their best to not score runs.

Can't believe Scioscia sent Scioscia

[stormngt]

You really have to be 8th rested with Oaklands defense. Not just this past play but a lot of shots into the outfield gaps were run.down for an out last night. A double was limited to a single and now it looks like a single can't score a run from 2nd.

[Erstad Grit]

sending our catcher with no outs on Cespesdes?

what the what? 

[bloodbrother]

Next batter will GIDP after that, right?

[Fontana Halo]

sending our catcher with no outs on Cespesdes?

In all seriousness can't knock the aggression. We know how good this team is with RISP

[Halos of Anaheim]

Why the hell was he allowed to go home?

[Taylor]

Apparently Bob Melvin's foot wasn't blocking Scioscia's basepath there.

[Homebrewer]

Scioscia's lineups are weak.

Scioscia's challenges are weak.

Scioscia's teams play weakly...well, they play weekly too.

Doesn't he need to take some family time off?? Graduation or something?

The team plays well when he does.

[Kenny]

If there was a collision, they would've taken that back, if my understanding of the rules is correct.

Iannetta should have just rammed into the catcher.

[Stradling]

At least Sosh allows you to come on here and do what you love to do HB.

[Taylor]

LOL @ Aybar.

[jshep]

lol Aybar

[southpaw]

Wow I see Aybar took swinging tips from Trumbo there

[bloodbrother]

Aybar swings at a fastball head high. These guys just have such great approaches once they get RISP.

[Jason]

This is so frustrating to watch
