If anything was proven during spring training, it was that Trumbo deserved to start over Bourjos today.  

 

Ok, maybe not.

[HaloCory22]

I'm fine with it. Can't wait for Aybar to bunt Trout over in the 1st.

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

The vent thread will come in the first inning when Aybar swings at the first pitch after Trout gets on base

[VariousCrap]

Don't put a winkly face, you know that is exactly what is going to happen.

[Greenbaumer]

Finally, it's here! Interested to see how Trumbo does. I somewhat agree I would have liked to see Bourjos but we'll need some pop and Trumbo has (used to have?) that.

[Ohtaniland]

Come on Sosh, everyone knows that Albert Pujols has never hit a homerun on April 1st. Oh by the way, this is the Angels first Opening Day all-white outfield in 30 years.

Let's Go Angels!

I hope Trumbo will not be swinging at the unhittable pitches he'll no doubt be getting. The book is out on him and he needs to adjust.

[Angel Dog and Beer]

Choo will continue to haunt us.

[nando714]

Ready

I woulda like to see PB today.

Hope u prove me wrong Trumbo

[bloodbrother]

Probably see Bourjos play tomorrow and then Trumbo the day after, then they get their regular lineup in when they return back to playing in the AL(thank god)

[gotbeer]

We will win.

Pfft.  Everyone knows that the first pitch, Aybar will fake the bunt.  Second pitch he will swing for the fences at though.

[Brent Maguire]

Sweet! Reds have a really good lineup too. 

[FabulousFabregas]

Going to leave school early to watch.  I'll be missing a couple of the Texas games this weekend though unfortunately.  Stupid scheduling.

[TobiasFunke]

I really see Trumbo as the key to our season

[2002_halos_II]

No game Tuesday.

Opening day Craig by Chuck!

[gotbeer]

I really see Trumbo as the key to our season

 

 

Yeah.  I can see that too.  I hope he snaps out of the funk.  To me, it seems like too many people are telling him too many things. And it doesn't help we don't have a power hitter coach to teach him, just a bunch of slappy's telling him how to slap.  

 

But saying that.  The way Conger is swinging it, I can see him taking a chunk of at bats from Trumbo.

[nando714]

The Reds are good

[Jimmag]

Dream Weaver. It must be opening day

[Ochocinco!]

my body is ready!!!
