What's worse?

I know it's bad, but how can it be more of a disappointment that the offense we are paying out the arse for?  And right now they are just sitting there on four runs and doing squat.

 

True, but you figure with the talent they have on that end, they'll turn things around. I don't really have that much hope for the rotation. Getting Weav back will be huge, but it's still hard to see one of Vargas/Hanson/Blanton suddenly turning it around and being some good #3 for this team behind Weav/CJ

I think we all knew the pitching was going to be awful, but not...this awful. This is just....beyond anything any of us could have imagined.

 

The offense has been shit too and definitely deserves a lot of the blame, but it has to be demoralizing to know that every time you fight back to tie the game, the pitching goes right back out there and gives it back up. Even if the Angels average 5 runs a game, they will still lose because the pitching gives up 6.

This is true.  The pitching was supposed to be mediocre, but not a fatal flaw in the team.  I'll give you that.  I think this month may end up being a repeat of last April, in which case I'll be watching fewer games and attending none.  I want to support the team, but I don't want to walk out of the stadium feeling ripped off, either.

This is a toss up as both are equally appalling; however, I do believe the offense issue will improve given time.  Trout, AP, Hamilton and Trumbo are too good of hitters for this not to improve.

 

Therefore, I think the biggest issue is and will continue to be starting pitching.  I dont see a lot of upside improvement (save Weaver coming back) for the starting staff and that is problematic.

 

Blanton...are you kidding me?  He was god awful in the NL...and people expected him to be better in the AL.  Still dont understand why he was signed and not someone like, Kyle Lohse.
