Scioscia sits the guy who hit the game-winning HR in the previous game. Typical.

Crappanetta.

Crappanetta.

 

1 hit in his last 22 at-bats. .045 AVG over the last two weeks. Granted, he hasn't played much, but I think it is pretty obvious as to why. Can't wait until him and Cowart come up to bat when the game is on the line.

your family must be proud of you.

Only 1.5 months of Iannetta left to endure.

If he gets an extension I'll go AO on this place..

I thought it was a pretty clever portmanteau.

I really hope Trout busts out of his slump tonight.  It would be nice to sweep a team.  The best player in baseball needs to start hitting for goodness sakes!

I thought last night's game was going to be the break out game. Started with a hit and then kind of fizzled after that.

That reminds me...

When is Skaggs returning? September? I'm guessing not

[Homebrewer]

Not ^^^

[QuinlansMinion]

Pujols fresh off a day off, gets to DH again. Im callin 2 dingers tonight.

[Angelfaninidaho]

Cespedes, Perez and Freese would look good in that lineup..

don't see why in the world they'd have him do anything this season. At most he'll throw some in AFL or winter ball. I don't think he's someone you can pencil in for the 2016 rotation though. People forget that TJ recovery is actually closer to 18-24 months. I'm guessing he starts slow next spring and doesn't pitch for the big club until May/June.

Veteran presence handling the 24 year old pitcher.

Cronnie!

He looked ok at the plate last night, not in the box score. Tonight is the night!

Scioscia turns the page on Perez

[Chimi]

I really liked the Murphy trade. Too bad Scioscia didn't.

Scioscia doesn't like Murphy against lefties. It's a match up thing, doncha know.

Doesn't NiTro sound like a strange nickname for a pitcher?

It sounds like a pyrotechnic accelerant.

[stevestevens]

If perez is sitting so he can get a days rest to play the every game of the HUGE weekend series there is nothing wrong with him sitting tonight

[Hollyw00d]

Good thing Perez will get some time on the bench tonight to think about his unacceptable home run last night
