Gameday Thread: 6/9 Angels @ Astros

Maybe the Dubs can go on a winning run in the final 6 minutes. Otherwise, it's back to Oracle to win it for the home folks.

Amazing we have this record so far. Helluva job by Mike and Billy.

Uphold tradition

  You have the same record as the 2009 team on this date.  Angel tradition has been established.   Maintain it.

I doubt Maldonado will pull a Josh Paul. Break in tradition.

Angels management needs to assure us they are committed to a World Series. 

I don't fault players but expect management to provide us the right players

Werent you one of the guys saying that Cron was the worst and that Valbuena needed to play everyday?   Are you now actually arguing that not playing Cron is a mistake?

No. I'm just saying that eppler doesn't make the line up (I assume)

i don't mind valy getting reps

Cameron Maybin as a leadoff hitter: .420/.532/.700/1.232 now in 62 plate appearances. 

On the season, he has a .255/.378/.385/.763 line. That .383 OBP last year is actually looking doable now, as his BA still has some room to grow after his early season slump. 

And how about 17 SB (and only 1 CS?)

[Stradling]

Too bad he's played for so many teams.

José Altuve Is hitting .230/.269/.352 at home and .416/.500/.690 away. Very Strange.

The direction a ball takes after leaving the bat doesn't always know your home or away.
