CJ!!!!

Boesch provides nothing for this team. How much longer is Scioscia going to waste at bats on this guy?

[Sam Sanchez]

I haven't seen Boesch square a ball up this year.  Not sure how he hit so many hrs in AAA. 

He squared up a couple in Boston if I remember correctly. He hit a deep 400+ ft line drive to dead center that would have been gone anywhere else.

Yeah he had a clutch double in Fenway.  He also hit somebody with a bat in AAA so there's that.

[Yes]

smfh

[Aaronkv]

Really? What's up with giving up HRs to guys who don't hit HRs often.

Im assuming peoples boner over Rasmus as a starter is gone.

[Season Over]

Hope the bullpen is ready for some heavy duty action.  

 

Also CJ is going tomorrow so this could be a really fun weekend for them.

Butcher seemed pissed at the phone.

I wonder what our FO thinks is going to happen with this situation. We clearly cannot continue to throw a reliever out there every fifth start. Draining our bullpen like this is going to cost us.

[Sam Sanchez]

This has been a very annoying series. We're fortunate to have a 2-0 lead so far. Hopefully we can sneak out another win today. Will be very taxing on the bullpen.

[Aaronkv]

What postition player is going to pitch tonight?

meh.  they've got roth for this reason.  Rasmus gives you the best chance.  Either you start Roth or bring him in now.  no biggie

[Frieri Meatball]

Dont worry guys CJ is going to step up and throw a complete game tomorrow...

😅😆😂😣

[Sam Sanchez]

What happened to Danny Santana?

They only have to do it 3 more times, so it's somewhat defensible considering the expanded roster and the fact Leblanc failed miserably in his audition. 

[Docwaukee]

Trout's at his best when focused on hitting the ball the other way.  He went thru a short stretch where he was doing that recently and now he's pulling off again.

I've said that, as well as many other people on this board many times. I know it's a cliche but he really does look his best when he "lets the ball get deeper in the zone."

[Yes]

Tired of seeing awful hitters go yard. 

[Angels]

Newsflash to the Angels: Roth is not major league quality!

[Guest]

Michael Roth, ladies and gentlemen.

[martinpa25]

LOL @ Roth

[Sam Sanchez]

I'm tired of immediately coughing away every lead we get.

Do angels wanna play a potential postseason game like this?

With rasmus starting and then use the entire bullpen ? Lmao
