Move Upton to cleanup and Cron to the fifth spot, after Albert reverts back to his .650 OPS self.

Round of applause for Sosh for PH Revere there. Dude is like a master chef with this roster just constantly cooking up masterpieces despite being given shitty ingredients. Let's hear it for the Big Catorce....our future Angels HOFer and upcoming MOY award winner

this is your first and final warning that any similarly disgusting, disturbing and morally bankrupt posts will result in a permanent ban.  please be advised.

trout is hitless

 

 

 

 

I noticed that too.

[Troll Daddy]

Let's not forget this dude ... bailed the team out in the 6th with runners everywhere and only one out

 

[UndertheHalo]

Geez these games have been stressful.  I'm becoming more and more invested in this years team......goddamnit.  Hopefully Skaggs has the big boi pants on tomorrow.  Going deep in the game would be huge for the team.  #LTBU

I did say mostly.  We got good efforts out of most of our bazillion pitchers. 

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

How many time did the lead change hands or at least the game up?

[Chuck]

Almost 40 pages and 1500 posts?

Good GDT!

I'm spent, time for bed..

I've been a bad Angels fan for a while now, I'll admit I'm slightly bandwagon when it comes to baseball (more of a Ducks/football fan), but I am always feeling tons of joy when the Angels are playing competitive August-September baseball. This team fights through adversity, and is one of the more like-able Angels teams since the 02-09 golden era. Lots of tenacity from the position players, and Trout is always brilliant. Let's keep it up Halos, something seems special about this group. Hopefully the pitching can settle down.

I'm mostly hung like a mule then.

We could play our way into the playoffs if we only faced the A's.

The thing about baseball is that it can be a sport that makes no sense.

Right now our pitching is straight up pathetic. But at the same time, it wouldn't surprise me if say we make it... and then they pitch nothing but shutouts just to make people go, "WTF?"

With that said... keep scrapping Halos! It's been a long while since baseball is fun to watch in August/September.

[Angel Oracle]

That was yet another huge win, one that started out like a 2 hour 1960s style game the first two quick innings and morphed into a typical longgggg fly by the seat of your pants game.

It is the A'th, but it's still difficult to beat any team 5 straight times over a 9 days stretch.

Cron es en fuego.   The lineup now has depth to it.

Skaggs, for a change, at least get through 6 freaking innings!   Thank goodness for 3 off days in a 12 days stretch to help give the pen a breather!

A Skaggs 7/8 inning start combined with tomorrow's off day could be the break the bullpen needs.

I have to get up at 5 am to go to work. Look forward to reading all of the angst from the 6th inning on along with "Light up the Halo!" tomorrow morning.

Good read.

6 would be amazing. I'd probably be content with anything over 4 at this point.
