#Angels RHP Barry Enright will start vs. #WhiteSox tonight in place of Tommy Hanson, who left team to tend to family matter.

 

Yeah...

[Brent Maguire]

Luckily he's facing an absolutely horrible lineup.

[WallyWorld]

oooof.  I don't care who he's facing, this is gonna be brutal.

[The Dude]

Win streak over.

[Angel Oracle]

Overs/Unders on innings pitched = 2

[dimitrig]

Why is it then when other teams throw out inexperienced guys who throw a lot of junk we can't hit them but when we do that the guy gets shelled?

[Docwaukee]

I just have a hard time believing that there is no one else out there.  I was puzzled that we even kept this guy around in AAA, even more puzzled when he was making regular starts down there.  I was baffled when they actually brought him up and thoroughly stunned when they actually used him in games that were semi close let alone at all.  Now, he's gonna start tonight so I don't even know what to think.  He'll probably give us 7 SHO inning.

check out the new fangraphs metric called 'relative suck ratio'

[Angel Oracle]

We did have one, Brad Mills, who shut out the O's for 5 innings last July.

Problem is, we never saw him pitch for us again as a starter.

[Ray McKigney]

I think he's pitching because he's also a bearded ginger.

I don't understand why they couldn't pitch Williams tonight.  If Hanson can come back this series why not pitch Williams on Friday, Wilson on Saturday and Hanson on Sunday.

is this one of the scrubs who sucked in ST and we didn't care because he would never play on the big team?

Enright has already pitched out of the bullpen this year for us. He gave up the game winning home run in that 19 inning game against Oakland.

[fan_since79]

He gives up 10 hits/9 innings, just like Blanton.

 

His Angels ERA is 12.15, WHIP of 2.10

That was his only appearance with the Angels last year.

 

This year he's 4-0 with the Rangers' AAA team.

5 BB

27 SO

0.931 WHIP

Those numbers indicate that he's a solid choice to be a MLB starter.

nice pitching staff

Fits right in.

[bloodbrother]

On the bright side, he struck out more batters than innings pitched in AAA, so you know he can get those punchouts!

 

Of course, he had a 9+ ERA, opponents hit .327 against him and he gave up 9 HR in 19 2/3 IP in AAA this year as well.

Prediction for tonight: 5 IP, 12 K's, 8 ER.

[EDinTUSTIN]

Win streak over.

LMAO

[Angel Oracle]

Any logic to keeping Enright over Mills?

Not that it means a whole lot, except from a AAA depth standpoint.

Well, it sounds like he fits right in.

[T.G.]

Enright is one of Dipoto's guys... he came from Arizona.
