Pujols playing ss

[Ray McKigney]

I like Murphy batting 5th.

[nando714]

Again

If we win I'm outta here for a week!

[Slegnaac]

4 starts in a row for Perez?

I didn't see that coming.

Iannetta can't hit anymore. It's kind of a bummer.

[tdawg87]

Is Aybar hurt?

 

Can he play anyway? Aybar on one leg with a broken arm > Featherston

[DMVol]

Featherston may have been a good idea in the winter when we he was selected in the Rule 5 draft but in the middle of a pennant race, he's a roster killer.....and DeJesus, good grief...what is left to say....looks like Joyce up there, only worse...

[Hollyw00d]

Nobody f's with dejesus

[tdawg87]

8 year olds, dude.

[Jason]

7-9 is awesome!! I havent watched the past 2 games but have nothing to do today so I may watch this one.

[nando714]

Might as well bat 1-6 and just skip 7-9

mayhaps the shoemaker will pitch a gem and 1 or 2 runs will win it for us.

Angels SP have a 4.56 ERA this month. Seems like every game lately the starters are spotting the other team 4 runs right off the bat.

Pun intended, I'm sure.

I'm not smart enough

[stormngt]

No. They give up 3 in 6 or 7 innings. Like last night. 3 rubs came in fifth. Starters should be able to give up a few runs and still have a chance of winning. Problem is we scored 19 runs in the last 10 road losses.

There is no question that the offense is the team's biggest issue, but during this horrible stretch the SP has been pretty bad as well.

 

Some may say that's because they have too much pressure to pitch a SO every night, but I don't agree with that sentiment. The offense has been atrocious, the SP has been bad, and the bullpen has been mediocre. The defense has also been pretty questionable as well.

 

The entire team seems to be on the same page right now. Unfortunately that page is in the book on "How to Suck", written by Adam.

[Dick B Back]

At least Da Jesus is not leading off...

and of course, no Cronnie.

Righty on the mound. Righty-righty no goody, says Mike.

[tdawg87]

We will win.

 

Or lose.
