Game over.

[Ray McKigney]

Best lineup, in my opinion. Not necessarily the best batting order, but that's essentially nitpicking.

[mtangelsfan]

Best available lineup.

 

 

They will get shut out.

[Ray McKigney]

Don't expect much help from the Mariners against Houston. Same guy, Vidal Nuno, is pitching for Seattle that faced the Angels only this past Friday.

[HaloSpurs]

Best lineup imo. 

[beatlesrule]

I'll be at the game tonight.  A friend of mine got 9 tickets in the cheap seats section 514 row A I think it is.  There might be some extra if anyone here is interested.

The path of least resistance may not necessarily be through Houston anymore, I want to see how Texas responds to a three game losing streak tonight.  It would probably be devastating for them if they lost since Hamels is pitching.

He might be sneaky good, ERA of 3.09.  With Tropeano starting we might have to really grind to win.  The ace in the hole is that Oakland is usually a pretty poor defensive team, they can make some really silly mistakes,but anything can happen in one isolated game.

The path of least resistance involves not playing a one game play-in in the Bronx. That means we must both beat the Rangers, and the Astros must lose .

Good point!

[KCal]

Solid lineup IMO, Calhoun just needs to remember how to hit for contact

[Ochocinco!]

Hope tropeano can go more than 5 innings this bullpen needs a damn breather

[KCal]

whew!

[KCal]

Command looks on point so far, minus the Reddick double

[Ochocinco!]

I looooovvvveee quick innings! Keep them coming trop we need 6 solid innings tonight

[VariousCrap]

12 pitch first inning.  Good start.

[VariousCrap]

Aybar seems to have no idea what a strike zone is.  He just swings at almost everything.

[laagamer]

Hell yes run on the board!

[Dick B Back]

Good job boys!

[KCal]

yissssss

[Slegnaac]

Let Murphy play every night!

[bloodbrother]
