Gameday Thread: Angels vs. Twins (7/22/15) Trout BACK!!

[Blarg]

Remember when Gott was untouchable?

[hen3ry]

So... we're putting someone out there who's nursing an injury - and just happens to be the freaking MVP - and letting the pitchers spot come up once.  

 

This is how desperate they are to not use Green, but they have no problem throwing the double-A all star out there.  

[Dick B Back]

Robertson hurt now?

I'm guessing he's sore from hitting the wall. Just a guess.

Scioscia is telling the Twins the Angels can beat them with one arm tied behind their back.

It's not like the pitcher is going to bat

[bloodbrother]

Nobody warming....oh boy

[Angel Oracle]

So much for Gott.

Who's next to try to be the 7th inning guy?

[Hufflepuff]

I still can't get over Joyce not being able to lay down that bunt, then striking out...

[moccasin]

Gott!

[bloodbrother]

I was never worried

[Blarg]

That is kinda what we hope would happen when Joyce steps up to the plate.

[hen3ry]

I'm just saying why bother calling him up if you won't use him even in a double-emergency (Freese, then Robertson) situation.  Anyone who's lower on the offensive totem pole than freaking Featherston had better have a good slider.

[Lou]

Shhhhhh. It worked when I started my " why does Calhoun get a pass" thread

Genius

[Blarg]

The Twins are simply incompetent.

[moccasin]

why isn't anyone bitching about Johnny G batting leadoff?

he has sucked, especially leading off a game

This worked beautifully today.

Perhaps not all replacements are inserted into the game based on their position on the offensive totem pole

[Angel Oracle]

How much longer is Joyce going to be on this team?

Bill? It's time to actually make a trade.

[Mark68]

Pujols has sucked tonight.

 

 

Hoping that works.

[JarsOfClay]

Something is off with Trout, he seems too jumpy at the plate.

[Blarg]

I wish Trout was as good as Pujols.

[tdawg87]

Trout in 2nd half mode

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

Gubi's insistence to incorrectly not pluralize RBI as RBIs, is really annoying.

Especially when Victor says it correctly.

[Blarg]

When you have zero confidence in your pitcher you walk Erick Aybar.

[Lou]

The Feather is due!

[Stradling]

It's a well known fact that players that should participate but don't participate in HR Derby struggle in the second half. It happens every time.
