Weaver is 3-0

[19HALO71]

1 game under 500 and 1.5 GB from the top of the AL West. Those are the only numbers that matter to me.

 

Oh and we still have 141 games to play, that's pretty important too.

 

 

Go Halos!!!

[Angels#1Fan]

This is a game where if we are being honest Volquez lost the game much more than Weaver won it. 

 

Another way to put it, if we are to be honest, would be to say that Weaver out pitched Volquez.

[Stradling]

Sure, we will go with that.

Weaver has pitched a couple of very nice games this year. This wasn't one of them but the offense had the best game of the season.

[TroutField]

Shoemaker would win a lot more games with 9 runs of support from the offense.

What does his have to do with my post?

[Bobster7587]

Suck it, haters!!

As sad as it's been to see Weaver decline, he is still much less frustrating to watch than certain other Angel pitchers who struggle, because you know he's out there giving his all every start. He takes complete responsibility for his performance and never skulks around or tries to deflect blame. He's a pure gamer, and for that, I'll always appreciate him as a classic Angel SP.

[Jason]

He seems to be fortunate at this time. This is his last year with the Halos so all that should matter to us is the 'W'

[Make Angels Great Again]

Weaver is pretty great.

I've never seen someone walk off the field so damned slow after the third out of each inning.

[Angels#1Fan]

Honestly, I love Weaver. But it's probably not going to get any better. He got shelled yesterday, but he got lucky with a lot of run support to get the win.

 

Weaver gave up 4 runs in 6 innings, that's hardly getting shelled. He got hit around a little bit but I think your characterization is a bit over stated.

 

If Weaver had given up 3 runs instead of 4 in 6 innings would you say he almost got shelled?

I'm A positive guy but Weaver was getting hit VERY hard. Four runs in six innings is a 6 ERA, that's getting shelled. Especially when you add in all the extra base hits.

[Stradling]

He gave up 6 doubles and a homer.

He's had 4 starts. 2 really great ones and 2 sub par ones. I'm way more concerned about Shoe than Weaver. 

[ScottT]

The 5 walk start was great?

I missed it. Maybe it was.

Like I said Weaver got hit around a little bit but he didn't get shelled..Volquez is the one that got shelled!

[Stradling]

If the Angels had scored 3 runs instead of 9 would you have been happy with his performance?

The point wasn't about the Angel offense, it was about Weavers performance. Certainly he didn't pitch great, but characterizing his outing as "getting shelled" is over the top imo.

Just by way of comparison yesterday Clayton Kershaw went 7 innings, gave up 7 hits 1 homer, and 5 runs. Did he get "shelled"?

[Angel Oracle]

I would call it hit hard.

[Angels#1Fan]

I would call it hit hard.

 

 

I think that's more appropriate, and I also think there are people that have completely given up on Weaver after having one bad season in his career and no matter how he does it'll never be good enough because they want him gone.

That's shelled with Kershaw standards

I stand by my statement.

 

Of course you do.

 

You have already stated you don't care how Weaver does this year..you still want him gone.

 

Maybe Weaver will stink it up the rest of the year but I'm going to let his results dictate what my opinion of his performance is and I don't care about his peripherals or WAR.

You guys are forgetting the Royals are the defending champs, and tend to hit a lot of pitchers hard, even ones throwing 90+.

Weavers fine. He did what was expected of him last night. Ate 6 innings and kept the team in the game against a very good offense. There were a lot of hard hit balls but he also made the big pitch when he needed to get a double play ball or a lazy fly out. Against a lesser opponent last night he probably goes 7 innings giving up 2 or less.

[Billy_Ball]

All we need is for Weaver to keep us in the game.  Weather we scored 3 runs or 9, he did that last night.

If he gave up 5 earned runs in 7 innings then yes.

[ABC]

He gave up 6 doubles and a homer.

 

damn

 

and how many warning trackers?
