The rotation as of now...

[QuinlansMinion]

Vs. Seattle

Richards

Heaney

Shoemaker

 

Vs Oakland

 

Weaver

Santiago

Richards

 

Vs Texas

 

Heaney

Shoemaker

Weaver

Santiago

 

Wild Card Game or Tiebreaker

Richards

 

Wont have to see Tropeano anymore this season.  Richards is in line to pitch the Wild Card game if we make it.  Seems like we have the right formula to maybe get hot these last 10 games and then sneak into the playoffs with a quality start by Richards in New York.  Also important to note in Richards 2 starts were facing Felix and Sonny Gray.

Frankly, the way that he is pitching now, Weaver pitching two of the last eight games concerns me more than any of the rest of it. Unless there is some unknown injury that will be magically cured by spring training 2016, he may be done as a major league starter.

[laagamer]

So we're ****ed basically?

Putting Blantiago out there, in Texas, for game 162 sounds about as fun as running your testicles through a cheese grater too. At least one of Weaver's starts is at home.

I'll be happy to watch Blantiago out there if game 162 matters.

[Second Base]

From where I'm sitting, it looks like Texas will win 87 games, and the Astros and Angels will each win 85. The Twins will win 83. 

[Blarg]

Richards and Heaney then hope it gets rainy?

[VariousCrap]

I'd much prefer Tropeano pitch than Weaver.

[nando714]

We must sweep the next 6

Do-able

[bloodbrother]

IMO Angels need to finish 8-2

[Docwaukee]

Weaver gets the start on the road in Texas, but seriously, I'd have Tropeano warmed up in the first innings and every time texas gets a baserunner.  

[VariousCrap]

IMO Angels need to finish 8-2

 

 

I think 7-3 will do it.

[Halos of Anaheim]

I think we end up 84-78. Winning 2 out of 3 vs Seattle and Oakland, and splitting 2-2 with Texas. Is that enough to get in? Who knows.

[ABC]

I wonder if Skaggs was ready this month?

If Texas wins the division by the time the Angels play them, the Angels would do better than a split as Texas may rest some of their players.

[Halos of Anaheim]

If Texas wins the division by the time the Angels play them, the Angels would do better than a split as Texas may rest some of their players.

I think we'll be 3-4 games back of Texas by the time we face them. There's no way they rest their players when a sweep could mean not winning the division for them.

Angels pitcher Tyler Skaggs is making progress in his recovery from Tommy John surgery, but he doesn't have the same definition of progress as the team.

The Angels have said that Skaggs, who had surgery last August, will not return to the mound until 2016.

Skaggs is throwing off a mound, a milestone he reached last week. His goal is to return to the Angels this season.

"I want to help my team win,” Skaggs said Monday, per the Orange County Register. “I can definitely go out and throw some innings, even if it's out of the bullpen. Whatever is necessary...I've been working my (butt) off to get to that point. If push comes to shove and I feel I'm ready, then of course I'm going to say yes. I'll leave it up to everyone else.”

Angels' Tyler Skaggs wants to avoid confusion over his return

With the Mets and Matt Harvey not on the same page when it comes to his workload following Tommy John surgery, Angels pitcher Tyler Skaggs vowed to discuss it over with the team so there is no confusion, reports the Los Angeles Times.

"I know for a fact that myself, the doctor, the team and my agent will sit down and talk it through this off-season," Skaggs said. "I promise you next year it will not go down for me like it is for Matt Harvey."

Skaggs underwent Tommy John surgery nearly 13 months ago and will not pitch this season.

Prefer Heaney and Richards then three days of bitchin!

They would play their starters at least until we were mathematically eliminated.

[AngelsFanSince86]

I have no problem with Weaver pitching at home.  He has done well there his whole career including this season.  I just hope that if the season is still on the line come his start in Texas that they give it to Tropeano.  

[CanadianHalo]

I think we go 4-6 or 5-5, it'll take a Houston meltdown over these last 10 for us to get in. Facing Felix on Friday isn't exactly a great way to kick off these last 10 either.

[Angel Oracle]

Tejas series could be a rough one for the starters.

Overs Unders on opposing HRs off of the starters: 8

[stormngt]

IMO Angels need to finish 8-2

7-3 will get us in.  Houston will lose four of their final 9 games.

Houston is already melting down, they are 7-14 so far in September.
