Puig Benched in an Elimination game in favor of Andre Ethier

[tennischmp]

hilarious tennischmp. You like your chances of a sac fly because why? What did they do to prove to you that a sac fly had a high probability?

 

I like how you assume that bunting these guys over was going to net a run. Like it's just going to happen because you say so. If they were successfully bunted over and still didn't score, you guys would be mad at Sosh for wasting an out by bunting them over. It's a vicious cycle that never ends with you guys.

And what did they do to assume they could get him home with a single? Against a guy like Davis? Personally I wouldn't be mad if they didn't score but he didn't give Calhoun or Trout that chance.

You also wouldn't have been mad if Aoki didn't make either catch.

Either is a LH'ed bat ... with Puig struggling at the plate the move might work out. Although they will lose some defense.

That's out of the Angels control.

Sosh is no doubt a good manager, but like all humankind he has a few flaws. One of them is his unflagging loyalty to veteran players. No need to recall Steve Finley, et al...playing a rusty Josh Is just a continuation of the pattern. All in all a pretty good year and I fear a lot better than what lies ahead.

Fortunately for Donny Ballgame Ethier has drawn a couple of walks. Move = successful

Unfortunately for the Dodgers, Kershaw won't be able to complete this game

I thought they pitched to Trout? Pujols and Kendrick got their chances too.

Kid is in the dugout cheering on his team. Kid has a lot of heart.

[Blarg]

Is the game slipping away from Kershaw?

[BleedRed]

Now or never?

Nope they didn't. After Cowgill was doubled off at third, Calhoun grounded out to end the inning.

[BleedRed]

Yesss!!!

[Blarg]

I guess so, three run jack by Adams.

[bloodbrother]

Wow! Man, Cards seem to always get these kind of hits in the playoffs.

[Blarg]

Nope they didn't. After Cowgill was doubled off at third, Calhoun grounded out to end the inning.

 

We aren't talking about that in this thread, try and stay on topic.

You live and die with Kershaw

When u have a bullpen like that

Colleti should be fired for not make any moves at the deadline to improve the pen

Make me appreciate Jerry's work to fix an entire bullpen during the season

Clayton Kershaw 7.82 ERA in the 2014 playoffs.

how much is he cheering now?

[BleedRed]

Clayton Kershaw 7.82 ERA in the 2014 playoffs.

Kinda epitomizes Angels season....regular season doesn't mean much in a five game playoff

[HaloCory22]

[tennischmp]

[BleedRed]

Rodent hal looks scared
