GDT 8/9/14 RedSox @ Angels (TROUTY DH)

Hamilton will just continue to suck.

[tdawg87]

Hamilton is the kind of guy who would come in while you are having sex and instead of leaving he'll just hang out and eat cheetos

[Jason]

Hamilton should not even be in the line up

[disarcina]

Hamilton -- 9-3 (well, deep 4-3).

[Jason]

Lol, Aybar .183 since break?

[heaven101]

Aybar makes the AS game and then goes into a big slump. 

[tdawg87]

Somebody get this team a shrink.

[Stradling]

Hamilton is the kind of guy who would come in while you are having sex and instead of leaving he'll just hang out and eat cheetos

Except he'd keep missing his mouth with the Cheetos.

[Angels]

Hamilton will just continue to suck.

Didn't he pretty much guarantee he would have a huge comeback season during ST? Yeah, some comeback alright. One can make a case he has been even worse (soon as his BABIP normalizes).

Massive bust

OK folks.....it's 2 zip Halos lead.

 

RIchards pitching well.

 

Wanna start wondering if the game stays this close will Sosh PLEASE make sure Freese is off the field (at 3B) by the top of the 7th??

 

McDonald for Freese at 3B, please.

[yk9001]

Gubi: Hammy stayed back well on the change up, just nothing to show for it.

 

A grounder into a shift... yippee.

[Jason]

Bucholz looks like he has some nasty stuff

[heaven101]

Baylor has to come up with some kind of strategy to get these guys back in the groove. 

[yk9001]

How are the Angels compared to other major league teams as far as shifts?

[OregonLAA]

Man on 3rd nobody out and the Twins don't score

[The God of Runs]

Uh guys? Can you score a few more runs, please?

[disarcina]

Man you guys are rough on our Halos.......that's ok.

 

I wasn't ever happy about the Hamilton signing, but oh well.

 

Aybar -- plays some really good D at SS even when he's not hitting -- and he's just gone hitless here, what? this series?  he will get his share of base hits.

 

Aybar is a good ballplayer.

[yk9001]

I've come to really appreciate Aybar.

[disarcina]

Freese up............two out.

 

well, it is two out.......I'd be tempted to PR for him IF he gets on.

 

great opportunity here to get him off the field......but Sosh probably wants one more AB out of him, at least.

[ItzTacosYerrp]

Man on 3rd nobody out and the Twins don't score

Fukin A man those fukin A's

[disarcina]

that Freese groundball is typical.......only thing that saved us from another Freese GIDP is that he came up with two outs........

 

if I'm in the dugout calling the shots, I would be quite tempted to keep Freese in the dug out and send McDonald out to third now in a 2-0 game where Richards looks like he's on his game.

 

a Freese E or throw could turn the tide........

 

If I need to PH for McDonald latter because he's up in a non-bunt situation, I'd figure out what to do then.

[tdawg87]

Man on 3rd nobody out and the Twins don't score

 

We'll see how the A's do once their cupcake schedule is over.

[disarcina]

A's are in a refuse to lose mode.

 

I still don't like that Cespedes trade from the A's perspective though.

 

I mean, they get Lester for two months and cut payroll next year.........

 

but I wouldn't have given up Cespedes.........BoSox will have both Cespedes and Lester next year.

[disarcina]

Rats -- leadoff walk........not good.

 

two walks in last three hitters.......rats.

[heaven101]

A just know when to get hits. No one but Voight is above /300 ut they score runs in bunches and hustle when down.
