I'm cool with him being in the clubhouse as long as it's not as a player.

What About Bob? references on Angelswin in the year 2014.

It's just groundhog day over and over seeing Ibanez in the starting lineup no matter how badly he plays.

[fan_since79]

In the 6-spot this year, Raul is hitting a robust .188

@Alden_Gonzalez: Bad news. Josh Hamilton will be a late scratch from tonight's game. Hearing he has explosive diarrhea.

I'm calling BS? Watery but BS nonetheless

Houston poisoned him

So much for Ibanez being released when Hamilton comes back.

[Butcher'd]

lol. Scisocia never fails to piss us off. We all need to face the fact that Ibanez is going to continue to play. He's not playing because he's "the only lefty bat" or whatever other excuses some people were trying to come up with. He's playing for one reason only: He's a veteran. That's enough for Scioscia to keep rolling him out there against RHP's

#Angels in a string of facing RHPs 5 games in a row (assuming White Sox don't skip anyone). Opportunity for Ibanez to show something

 

maybe the last gasp?

[WallyWorld]

is Conger sick/injured?

 

not only is he normally CJ's guy, but Angels are facing a RHP tonight.

[tdawg87]

Yeah, he definitely could use the confidence boost. After all, he has hit RHP at an unprecedented .602 OPS.

I doubt it but hopefully he will only start 2 games a week from now on

[Docwaukee]

Great to see that Trout is well enough to play CF btw.

No, he's 3 for his last 27
