Gameday Thread: 6/27 - Angels vs. Astros

[fan_since79]

Rangers and Yankees are in a rain delay in the 9th inning of a one-run game, and there are about twenty fans left in Yankee Stadium.

Thanks for nothing Morin

[bloodbrother]

Walking Valbuena on 5 pitches with Altuve/Correa coming up is really bad

[TroutField]

Morin sucks, totally thought he would be something special. A great change up isn't a good pitch when you have a very mediocre fastball 

[TroutField]

What an incredible play by Simmons!

Yep and he has lousy control with the FB

[RuledByNone]

Blowpen strikes again. They give it up more than Tijuana hookers.

[Jason]

The bullpen isn't even trying anymore

[HeavenlyHalos]

Lol. It really is amazing how bad this team is.

[TroutField]

How many times are we going to hear "off the glove of marte"

[bloodbrother]

Pen can't even hold the lead for a single inning. Par for the course

[JAHV76]

Marte barely missed catching Altuve's line drive 

[OregonLAA]

I wouldn't blame that on Morin. Marte or Simmons should have made the first play. Dinker base hit. Strikeout and doesn't throw out the base runner. The walk was lame though. But Marte should have made the play again. Doesn't look good in the box score but he wasn't hit hard

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

That's 2 times this inning Marte missed making a play and probably cost Shoemaker a win. That drive of Altuve's bat was hit hard but Marte got a glove on it and should have caught it. IMO

These pitchers are going to be pretty decent in a few years. Right now, some of them belong in AAA.

 

Are you referring to Morin?

Heck, I went ahead and deleted my post, but you're too fast.

Except that bad stuff always seems to happen when he pitches. He isn't very good.

Another no-decision for Shoe. At least it's not a loss for Shoe.

[JAHV76]

Why not pitch hit for Nava?

[itsKnoppUitsme]

Can we please put Cowart @ 3rd & leave him there!

[OregonLAA]

Nava is the worst player on the team this year and that's saying something 

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Why is Nava in the game? He is terrible.

Cowart at third would mean fewer runs scored than relative few that the Angels are scoring now.

[Jason]

Maybe Shoemaker needs to find a way to give up less than zero runs? The strategy of zero doesn't seem to be working 

[Angel Oracle]

Marte is NOT a 3B.   One good play and some flubs

Mor-Runs-In needs a demotion to AAA to find a 2nd pitch.
