GDT 7/3/14 Astros @ Angels

[Hollyw00d]

This should be a fun series. Houston is improving quickly

[Mark68]

In, before Albert's career numbers against Houston are mentioned.

You could probably just ask him. I'm sure he'll tell you all about it.

Honeys, their home, Play ball.

This could be a rough stretch for the Angels, having to face 3 lefties in a row. None of them throw hard.

 

Yours is one of the very few relevant posts on this thread so far.

Ha.  Ernie bein' Ernie:

Ernesto Frieri faced 6 batters for Pirates tonight. He gave up 5 hits.

[jsnpritchett]

Gotta make that play, Freese.

[jshep]

Has that slide move ever worked for Freese?

[Sherlock31]

Frieri tonight 0.1 IP 5 Hits 5 ER current ERA 19.29

 

I guess we won the trade.

[Quinlanforthewin]

That's not even that hard of a play dude.

Wow, five hits and a fielder's choice and he was gone. His replacement is being hammered too. Arizona has scored seven runs and there's only one out.

Sooooo glad he's not this teams headache anymore

 

great range by Freese on that Altuve grounder to....lol

[martinpa25]

Great start to the game

[Jason]

The league may have adjusted to Shoemaker

[bloodbrother]

Sweet!

[southpaw]

Way to pitch out of trouble

[jsnpritchett]

Whew!  I thought that was going to be a trainwreck of an inning.

[jshep]

Good thing Calhoun got benched tonight

[stormngt]

Fantasy team in jeopardy?

Calhoun should be in there. Sosh is a dipsh*t.

[Butcher'd]

Good choice Sosh

[Frieri Meatball]

Got to get Cowgills bat in there!

[martinpa25]

Kole is laughing at that Leadoff AB

[stormngt]

Talk to Adam Kennedy

In 2002 - Wasn't David ECKSTEIN always lead off?

Didn't BENGIE MOLINA always catch? (With that occasion Jose Molina Day)

I don't remember Scioscia platooning Troy Glaus with Chone Figgins.

Nor GA with Benji Gil.

Kole Calhoun is frigging good. Stop with the Lefty/Righty argument. Sciosicia is so stubborn.

Playing Kendry Morales part time (forgetting his 2 HR inning from both sides of the plate) is an example. As is his Steve Finely playing in the playoffs fiasco.

He continues to mess with guys heads (Lackey, Trumbo, etc.) but - It's like the staff is scared of Albert. He runs like Vladdy - yet thinks like Aybar. But no one says anything in the dugout to Mr. Base running gaff.

If I'm an opposing skipper...Walk Trout to get to Old Man River { 7 years to go } Albert...

Why do you keep saying this? It's absolutely stupid. People want Calhoun in there because Calhoun is a better player.

Maybe because he has cowgill on his fantasy team an gets butthurt that Kole plays more often
