Think Pujols homers tonight?

[Michifan]

He seems to be a bit extra-inspired when Trout has as many home runs as he does. Seems almost like a friendly competition between them. I'll bet one of them at least breaks Anderson's record for home runs before the All Star break.

[Halos of Anaheim]

Hopefully he takes what the pitchers give him. Don't need him or Trout chasing balls just to hit a home run.

I think you meant to say Glaus' record?

[totdprods]

Glaus has single-season record with 47, and GA has pre-ASB record with 26, now tied with Pujols and Trout.

If he hits the ball hard enough, yes.

GA really slumped after that then, since his high is only somewhere in the low to mid 30s.

[ELEVEN]

1 HR with 3 balls pulled to 3B for outs.

....AO just jinxed us

[ELEVEN]

Self ban?

[Sam Sanchez]

Maybe the Home Run Derby will fix his swing? Let's reverse the Home Run Derby "jinx".

Iwakuma usually shuts down the Angels but hopefully you're right.

[Sam Sanchez]

tonight will be a preview of the home run derby,and not just from pujols.

 

iwakuma is garbage, and it's going to be a lot of fun for halos fans.

 

i predict the incompetent m's will leave kuma in the rotation to get shelled for at least 4 more starts before bringing back elias or paxton is he's ready. 

Historically, he has pitched pretty well against the Angels. And his "best" start of the year came against the Angels. Though still wasn't great, 6 innings, and 4 ERs.

 

Despite that being his "best" start, it was also his only Loss, which means he's been getting a lot of support in his starts it seems.

Hopefully Albert hasn't suddenly gone from Hot to Not.

we're on to your negative mojo anti-jinx.  

[Lou]

i'll wait to give my answer until Hollyw00d gives his

[seenoevil]

Pujols is going to pull a babe ruth and call his shot and hit a home run

[IEAngelsfan]

Well, if he buys his wife some flowers and if she's traveling with the team......oh wait, you're talking baseball.

[Taylor]

No.

[Michifan]

Well shows what I know. I forgot that it was Cy Iwakuma and his previous ERA of 7 that they were facing. Of course the Angels could only muster 3 hits and no runs. 

[Angel Oracle]

Since when does Nelson Cruz actually make a great defensive play to essentially save a game early?

[CanadianHalo]

With the way this hack has been swinging lately I'm not even sure he homers during the derby
