Gameday Thread: 4/14 vs. Rangers

[Quinlanforthewin]

Good challenge but it's pretty funny to see losing by 7 after Scioscia has already taken out Trout and Pujols

[Angel Oracle]

Better hope Richards is ready come Sunday.

[CanadianHalo]

@slbeesradio: Thru 4 IP, Richards has allowed 3 runs on 4 hits w/5K & 2 BB. 59 pitches, 38 strikes. Velo 93-95 in the 4th.

@Alden_Gonzalez: LRT: Scioscia wanted Richards to experience what it was like to have a long inning. He did in the third tonight.

Our pitching is poo.

[Docwaukee]

down by six runs feels like we are are down by a million.

They're either going 1-2-3 or scoring 5.

Trout needs to catch a ball he calls for. Trout ****ed that up, he called late and bailed out. You guys need to take off your Trout hats and think baseball not sacred cow when evaluating a play.

 

You're out of your goddamn mind. There's no Trout hat on, there's no sacred cow.

 

Have you EVER seen Trout drop a ball like that when there's nobody around? When a routine fly touches Trouts glove, it is caught.

 

That wasn't routine for every outfielder, but it was for Trout, and when Joyce got too close Trout thought he was going to run into Joyce. I thought so too. The only reason he "bailed out" as you're putting it is because Joyce was WAY too close and belonged nowhere near the ball Trout called. Trout would rather drop the ball than run into the guy and get hurt. And so would I.

 

Joyce needs to give Trout his range and stay the hell away from him unless the ball is obviously Joyce's to catch. Why management hasn't already discussed this with him is beyond me.

it blows my mind how we missed out on players such as Nelson Cruz and instead traded for a scrub

Because Cruz has ped history and the Angels are a classy org. So were going to be classy with Matt Joyce what a nice clean fellow.

Great game aybar

[seenoevil]

Lucky to have a dominant closer and trout. Other than that this team has been trash

[Vegas Halo Fan]

I kicked on the TV around the seventh inning, saw us down 8-1, went on to another channel.

So when does the Mike Soscia Death Watch begin?
