A plea to Mike Scioscia

[Blarg]

Who was it that said "with guys like Pujols, Hamilton and Trout in our lineup we don't need to worry about pitching'.

 

i don't know but it looks as though the Angels have the 3rd highest OPS and third most runs scored in the AL playing in a pitchers park.

Sosh's balls in that pic.

 

It's weird every time someone posts it.

lol thanks dick

[Blarg]

Not to interrupt Adam, but the Angels also have the 5th best team ERA in the AL.

 

Now please, everyone, go back to talking about Scioscia's man parts.

[tdawg87]

 

No need to thank me.

[Blarg]

We won't.

I think it's smiling

Well it is not unheard of to allow three runners to score when you come in with the bases loaded. He gave hit!

Joe Smith allowed 3 inherited runners to score. Do we need to talk about that or sluff it off because he is Joe Smith and can do no wrong?

I think we as fans have the right to second guess Scioscia when he continues to make the same mistakes.  Yes, I am very happy with the win.  Let's be honest though, we were up 5 going into the 9th.  Continuing to put a pitcher in that cannot find the strike zone is beyond dumb.  The last thing you want to do is put runners on base via the base on balls.  At least make them swing the bat.  Giving free passes puts you in a situation where a good hitter comes up ala Joe Mauer, who can hit off of anyone.  6-1 in the 9th, at least put in Morin.

Why would you waste Morin on a 5 run lead?

[tdawg87]

Pleas answered.

[Jeff M]

Keep Ernesto Frieri far, far away from the 9th inning from here on out

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Angels' fans

 

Pittsburgh far enough?

[jonickell25]

Why would you waste Morin on a 5 run lead?

When else would you waste him?  If its a close lead in the 8th, it's Jepsen.  If it's a save situation, it's Joe Smith.  Unless I missed Scioscia naming Morin the closer, then I wouldn't call it wasting.  Five run lead can quickly become a 2-3 run lead if relievers that can't hit the strike zone are put into the game.

It won't be long before this bites us in the ass.
