Does this team finish over .500?

[bloodbrother]

Their 6-17 their last 23 games. Just 3 games over .500 now

 

 

[Ohtaniland]

I'm thinking right at .500

 

81-81

[wopphil]

6-17 is almost too horrible to comprehend. It would be like a solid, six-game win streak, followed by one of the worst losing streaks in history.

Well done Halos.

[laagamer]

Maybe

[mp170.6]

We'll probably finish with about 83 wins. 

 

Meanwhile, the AL West goes head to head between the Astros and Rangers. Then on the final day of the season, Hamilton hits the division winning HR against the Angels.

Not a chance. This team has no heart. 

[VariousCrap]

Earlier in the season, many of us were posting that this is a .500 team.  We then looked like idiots because they went on an amazing 17-3 stretch.  Now, we look brilliant again.  At this point, I am hoping for an amazing September and for this team to ride that momentum into the playoffs, but realistically, this is a .500 team.

 

The team has good starting pitching and a good enough bullpen.  Offensively, this team is Trout and Calhoun.  There is nothing else.

Well done Halos.

Remember when we thought 6-14 was bad? We've managed to top that quite impressively.

 

To answer the question, yes. But if we sneak into a wild card spot it's purely due to the pool of mediocrity which surrounds us.

82 wins

No playoffs

Contrary to your beliefs, you do not now nor did you ever look brilliant.

[nando714]

Does this team even care?

They all look lethargic out there.

[Amazing Larry]

As long as they get hot at the right time they could still get into the playoffs and win some games. Stranger things have happened.

[Troll Daddy]

They won't be the best team in the league this year, but they still have just as good a chance as anybody of winning it all if they get in. The worst team in the playoffs has won the WS 3 of the last 5 years.

I prefer the best team in the league, but a World Series would be a nice consolation prize.

How can they win it all with Scioscia managing ?

LOL....thanks.

[Troll Daddy]

Judging by our schedule I would say yes. I don't think will make the playoffs but it's baseball and with MS managing the team its definately possible. That's what makes this game so great.

[Catwhoshatinthehat]

Yes.

[JoJo26]

Anaheim Lollygaggers...that's what they are.

We need that Bull Durham Manager speech...because after wasting hours upon hours of my life watching this team since that sweep of Boston...that's what they are.

How they've won 60 games...

It's a miracle-

Great movie! Aybar did do a little bat throwing in the dugout the other day.

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

Can I let you know around Sept 30?

[Inside Pitch]

Angels and Nationals have both tanked so hard of late -- Nats are 10-20 in the second half, and the crazy thing is they have gotten worse as they have started getting all their guys back from the DL...  Rendon, Zimmerman, Werth -- all back and tanking..

[bloodbrother]

Crazy how bad the Nats are. Matt Williams won't survive the season if they fail to make the playoffs

[Puget Sound Angel]

Not unless we play sub-500 teams the rest of the way.

[tomsred]

Just win tonight - focus!!!

[Hollyw00d]

How big will the mushroom cloud be if we get swept again by the chi sox, or even lose the series?

They'll just turn the page, mang.
