I get what you're saying, and might even agree with you, but here are Upton's numbers in his last 19 PA:

.056/.150/.056/.206

1 single.

point is, we really don't have much of a choice

Yeah, that's disheartening...

Angels would have been much better off signing Melvin Upton for $100,000,000 less.

No they wouldn’t.  

[bloodbrother]

I cannot believe it's still 0-0. Feels like the Giants should have about 5 runs right now

[krAbs]

Next time Belt comes up, just hit him and save the effort...

re: Ohtani

Babe Ruth had a big swing with lots of motion and he put up some decent numbers.

Just give Upton a lil' more time.  He'll do something equally bone-headed.

You never saw Canseco???

Ha. Funny that we both immediately thought of the same player

Explain...

Well he was over a 5 win player last year, and this year he will be a 3-5 win player.  So that’s my explanation. 

[eligrba4ever]

Her comes the hook and ladder. Fireman summoned to put out the blaze.

No chance.

He won't get to the ball in time.

I was thinking of nearly his whole career in the field. That play summed it up.

[bloodbrother]

So the Angels end the week with 1 starter pitching through the 5th inning. I don't think that's a good recipe for success

You mean when you said you’ve never seen someone lose a ball in the lights, yea I remember.  It was silly then and it’s silly now.  

so what happened this time? The sun? The dude is terrible in the field, I honestly think you'll argue w/ me on anything just to be the counter point.

[Jason]

It's like every starter is just making a last minute sport start. How dare they go over 5 innings

Canseco should be credited with the run off the header.

[IheartLA]

Barria didn't even do that bad, sigh

[Lou]

Sweet. A(nother) 2-inning outing from our SP

[Stradling]

He was a 5 win player for another team last year. Going back to when he joined the Angels he's a .240 hitter while being the worst defensive player on the team. Top 5 worst defender in baseball.

I don't see the value.

Because you haven’t liked him since he came to the team.  You not seeing him make the team and the line up better is on you.

[eligrba4ever]

Woo Hoo!!! One run scores, but it's an out; One more out and the jam is erased.

[IheartLA]

LOL they played the music...

just not a good sign, weird things happening today

No, he mislplayed the ball.  What I remember about our last exchange is you pretending he didn’t lose it in the lights.  

[bloodbrother]

Nice hanger
