GDT: 6/27/14 Angels @ Royals

[Guest]

so yeah . . what's everyone doing with the rest of their evening?

I'll be fantasizing about how good our team could have been if Jason Vargas was re-signed.

[jshep]

This inning is never going to end.

[Richard]

Doink hit. 

[m0nkey]

I knew we should have traded Shoemaker while his stock was high.

Yes.  Sell a career minor leaguer with 3 quality starts this year.  Sell high on him

[Hollyw00d]

dipoto needs to punch himself in the balls for that awful freese trade

[Jason]

Just leave him in. He needs to eat some innings

[bloodbrother]

Package him with a prospect to get another reliever who is actually useful and I'll throw him a parade

[Guest]

Hilarious that people are blaming Ianetta for Shoe giving up hit after hit after hit.

He deserves some of the blame. Iannetta is a sub-par catcher, by all counts.

But he knows how to drive in the important runs!

[WallyWorld]

jfc with this inning

[nando714]

Well let's see if we pack it in or fight this one out

Hilarious that people are blaming Ianetta for Shoe giving up hit after hit after hit.

 

same old shit with iannetta, missing called strikes and repetitive location at repetitive speeds.

[NachoPop]

Shoes era has jumped up to 4.42. Hopefully he can go another couple of scoreless and save the pen

Hilarious that people are blaming Ianetta for Shoe giving up hit after hit after hit.

 

I blame the 68 yr old lady at the concession stand in section 245. Still waiting on my hot dog and beer...

[Stradling]

He deserves some of the blame. Iannetta is a sub-par catcher, by all counts.

Ok I'll give him 5% of the blame, 20% of the blame on Freese and 75% of the blame on the guy pitching. I guess I could blame the baseball gods for allowing all these flairs to fall in.

The Angels and Shoemaker were due for a stinker. 

 

Good thing it's Friday night and I have plans. 

 

Though it wouldn't surprise me to see the Halos put some more runs on the board. Looks like the wind is blowing hard out to LF/CF.

[martinpa25]

Yup..they packed it in for tonight

And Vargas is due for a stinker.

[Hollyw00d]

thanks chuck for that awesome halos on a roll thread

[Stradling]

Yup..they packed it in for tonight

Because one guy grounded out?

All those dudes deserve blame, but I think you might be underestimating the importance of having a good catcher who properly frames pitches.

[Sherlock31]

Hamilton is hitting the lefty good this year.

[martinpa25]

They should've packed Kendrick and freese with frieri

[Frieri Meatball]

Lol Howie gave up on this game.

[WallyWorld]

this Pujols fellow . . you guys say he was good once?
