After Today

[fan_since79]

Starting tomorrow, the Angels have exactly one day off until September 25th.

 

40 games in 41 days. Ten of those games are against Oakland.

Yea I was going to post the same thing. Get ready to be pissed, especially you FS, when Mike starts giving guys days off. They have two days off the rest of the way and sadly one is with four days left in the season.

Didn't take long for you to make this thread personal.

Trout needs a day off. He looks freakin horrible.

He's had 2 days off this week including today

[fan_since79]

Trout needs to pounce on those first-pitch batting practice offerings. Pitchers are routinely getting ahead of him.

I wasn't making it personal, I was pointing out your posting habits. I am sure you won't question Mike sitting someone down the stretch after they have a two hit game or a game winning RBI, that would be so above you. At least own that you have an irrational hard on for the guy.

Sadly Trout is missing fastball after fastball. He is in a slump in a bad way.

I won't take the bait. Go pick a fight with someone else.

[Stradling]

No problem, but I wasn't really picking a fight. I was still just pointing out that the lack of days off will require Mike to sit some guys which in turn will cause people on here to question his decisions.

Sosh is a dumb butthead.

You forgot fat.

I mean, he needs a day off in the coming weeks as this 40 game set gets underway. He needs to maybe just sit back and watch a game. Hamilton should join him. 

[tdawg87]

I never forget fat. I live with it every day.

[Stradling]

I never forget fat. I live with it every day.

I think we all do. Except maybe Cez.

I think Scioscia ought to carry an extra arm in the pen during this stretch, and whomever is on the bench needs to be versatile and capable of playing just about anywhere (a guy like Grant Green, for example). That means I'd leave Cron in AAA.

Cez strikes me as a Bear chaser.

I won't take the bait. Go pick a fight with someone else.

 

why do you always want people to pick fights, can't we all be friends?

[Stradling]

Tdawg, don't let him strike you, that is domestic violence.

[Stradling]

F off Steve!

[Angel Oracle]

Only 17 of those 41 days though come before rosters expand on September 1.

It won't be as bad as it seems for the pen, because it can be expanded by then.

[Stradling]

Not sure I agree much AO. If we didn't play a TON of close games I would agree. But we will be fighting till the end, and need our A team playing, especially our best arms.

[fan_since79]

There would have been two off-days, but on one of them (Sept 8th) we have to play a makeup game in Cleveland.

[nando714]

We're not gonna use this as an excuse if we collapse down the stretch and not make the post season , right?

Good. They had time off for the All Star break and you saw how disastrous that was to their momentum.
