Latos will throw a 2 hit shutout knowing this team

[Ray McKigney]

Simmons has a .556 BA versus Latos. Small sample size, but still something positive going into the game. Time for Trout and Pujols to wake up.

[Homebrewer]

Todd Frazier has added an important boost to that Sox lineup.

Abreu-Frazier is a dangerous 1-2 punch against anybody.

Surprise playoff team?

That'd be a big surprise!

Not with Robin "Got My Ass Beat by a 46-Year-Old Living Legend" Ventura as manager. He's averaged 74 wins per season since he's been there. Has never made the playoffs.

Ventura might be the worst manager in MLB now that Matt Williams is gone

No! 

 

Frazier has been blah so far too. 

[mtangelsfan]

Can't believe how bad our lineup is.  We literally have three good hitters.

To be fair his teams have had no talent. This is by far the most talent he's had. They'll be in the hunt for the playoffs iyam

Lets go Halos!

[TroutField]

Some early runs will help shoe out! I wanna see Trout break out!

[AngelsLakersFan]

Did I mention I hate Ortega batting second?

[Jason]

Crazy how well Latos is doing so far this season. He sucked pretty hard last year.

[daygloman]

Go Halos!

[AngelsLakersFan]

Trout just said a bad word

[Jason]

If your aren't going to hit, walking is always a good second option

[Jason]

Trout just said a bad word

Funny, I said the same word when he missed that cookie

[AngelsLakersFan]

#$*^!

[Jason]

Why Calhoun are you swinging out of the zone 1st pitch after 2 walks?

[Jason]

Nice 1st inning from Shoe. Keep it up

[Jason]

Cron has the worst looking approach to hitting that I've seen in a while
