Gameday Thread: 5/29 Angels vs. Braves - No Trout (for a long time)

[Mark68]

Simba might be the only reason to watch now.

Gave away my tickets for tonight

this team isn't worth my time. 

Maybe I'll go Wednesday

Cliffy ain't no third baseman. A charge on that hopper might have gotten Dansby. So says the Atlanta booth.

[eligrba4ever]

Nice run and catch, Maybin!!!

[nando714]

Sick inning Nolasco 

[Jason]

Nolasco sucks and so does Pennington 

[eligrba4ever]

E-5 on Cliffy.

 A real third baseman also gloves balls that are hit right to him

And they are both healthy.

I thought Valbuena played 3rd?  Where is Cron?

And so the no-Trout lineup looks the part. They suck!

[Jason]

 Nolasco still hasn't given up the obligatory homerun yet either 

[nando714]

11 Games Back

So close

[Ohtaniland]

That ball was hammered.

[bloodbrother]

I'm sure this offense will be able to battle back. Just may take about 4 games to do so but give it time

[Ohtaniland]

Pull the plug Sosh pleeeese

Things being what they are with the Angels, Cliff is the only "3B" option hitting over .200. Valbuena (.160) is playing first tonight. Marte (.180) has been at 3B. Cron is playing 1B in AAA.

Run differential is a stupid stat

[eligrba4ever]

Great line from the ATL booth: "Mike Morin was on the DL with neck tightness. I know a lot of pitchers with 7.40 ERAs who had neck tightness."

LOL. That was Sutton.

[Ohtaniland]

That was easy. 4 pitch inning 

[Jason]

 No effort whatsoever
