Gameday Thread: 7/9 - Angels vs. Mariners

[OregonLAA]

Wow. I've defended Perez up to this point but how do you swing at all that shit knowing Felix has lost his control?

[Mark68]

There went their one shot at Felix.

[OregonLAA]

2 nice pinch hit jobs 2 days in a row for Navarro

[Angelsfirst]

Frustrating game

Dude has a 2.6% BB%. He just does not walk at all and swings at everything

[Docwaukee]

We're lucky it's not 10-0.

What do you expect?  He has always been a below average hitter.

Wasn't he good in that aspect in the minors? I thought he walked a lot. Maybe I'm confusing him with someone else

[Mark68]

Calhoun with the token solo homer.

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

Rodney didn't look on at all. Wish they had more patience at the plate that inning. Jesus.

Must be hoping to make the Seattle strip clubs by 11.

[Mark68]

Well NOW the game is definitely over.

[Mark68]

How the **** do we give up 19 hits? To the MARINERS?

I'm assuming there are stats for this but I feel like if the game is close, like within a few runs, Alvarez is dog shit. But then he comes in and mops up a big lead or a big deficit, he's nails. And that's why his numbers aren't too terrible

[Docwaukee]

now that there's film on Morin and his changeup, he hasn't been good in almost a year.  

[OregonLAA]

Gotta love a guy who can't hit his spots and someone comes in and swings at the first pitch. Might be the most annoying thing to me.

Then the next guy walks. Cool.

[Mark68]

Yeah, light the failo.

[Puget Sound Angel]

Got home from the game.

 

I wish Richards would have given up 3-4 bombs in the first few innings because we could have pulled his ass by the third inning at the latest. Instead we had to suffer through 6 1/3 inning of being killed by a thousand cuts. Richards clearly did not have it tonight, yet our bullpen remained silent and Sosh twiddled his thumbs.

I mean, how do you not pull a guy who gave up hits to Zunino (160 BA), Trumb (190) and Ackley (204)?

 

19 hits by the Mariners (12 by Richards) was the most the Mariners have hit this season.

 

Was Joyce delirious because he finally got on the base paths? How else do you explain him trying to take third base in the second inning when he was dead meat halfway there. I guess it was great body contortions by Joyce to make the play look close.

 

Felix was good but he has been better. Only 6K's for him is kinda an off night. At least we got his game out of the way.

 

Mike Montgomery has looked real good since his call up a couple weeks ago for the M's. He's on the  mound Friday night.

When I read this, I immediately began thinking of emperors and fiddles and Rome burning.
