Might switch to the hurricane channels. 

Irma will do less damage than the Halo pitchers.

[Mark68]

Well, we already had Hurricane Andrew and Hurricane Jesse. I think we've pretty much seen the devastation already.

According to the Angels' MLB homepage, Heaney was pulled because of an arm injury.

So they sent in the scrub team... what is this, spring training?

The analyst Mike Blowers on the Seattle TV broadcast immediately suggested the probability it's a tendon injury.

So...what did Angels broadcasters say ?

(I was watching Seattle too)

Dehydration?

[Mark68]

I guess since the team is taking the night off, I will do the same. 

 

Got a game of EU IV waiting for me.

[papawealey]

Looks like Svengoolie has Medusa vs. Son of Hercules on. I like the chances it will be more interesting than this sh*tshow

[eligrba4ever]

I guess the college boys made today not a total sports loss in SoCal.

[eligrba4ever]

Kaleb in Trout's spot. White handkerchief waving.

[eligrba4ever]

Is Trout out just to not get hurt in a meaningless final two innings? Or did he get hurt?

[rottiesworld]

Wow, the Angels have a lot of pussy players with no balls. I read where someone said they are tired and they have had a few days off. I have to say if that is a problem the players being tired, I have to say for the off season they need a good conditioning coach and batting coach, and shopping list they better get some pitchers. I don't see or read about other teams using the excuse that the team is tired, that is a fucked up excuse.

And he has a better night than Trout already.

[eligrba4ever]

Mike S. is getting a jump on Spring Training 2018 with the current lineup.

[eligrba4ever]

Mike Trout got the rest of the night off to watch The Weather Channel.

[AngelsFaninGA]

Lol, so I guess Heaney's getting a second Tommy John? That was fast

Hate to say it but it's over.  the Twins have a comically easy schedule ahead so they can't fail.  Let's hope we lose out the rest of the season for better draft picks. (Here's to wishful thinking) 

Be prepared to have this bumped next week when we are owners of a wild card spot again.

The entire rotation and bullpen are either porcelain dolls or scrubs. The pitchers with a modicum of talent are always hurt or unavailable, and the rest have no business being on a major league team.

[Puget Sound Angel]

This aint so easy when we don't play the A's.

[Angel Oracle]

When are they going to finally bring in healthy pitchers with some talent.

Next draft needs to feature more pitching.   And hope Tres Rodriguezes can get the job done a few years from now.

[Highsteppingbruin]

Starting pitching staff filled with glass joes. Just because they have "potential" doesn't mean that they have produced.

[Angel Oracle]

This pitching staff needs some Bald Bulls and Great Tigers.
