Gameday Thread 5/14 vs Royals

[Brent Maguire]

Tonight's #Angels lineup: Aybar SS, Trout CF, Pujols 1B, Trumbo RH, Hamilton DH, Kendrick 2B, Callaspo 3B, Iannetta C, Shuck LF. Vargas P.

 

[jshep]

Glad Aybar is back, but him leading off is still annoying.

[Willy J.]

I thought Hamilton was out for a couple days with a yeast infection?

LMAO

[Troll Daddy]

Someday will see Trout batting third I guess

[VariousCrap]

I predict three hits and no runs tonight!!!

[tdawg87]

We're going to win.

 

Or lose.

Royals Lineup:

Lorenzo Cain CF

Alcides Escobar SS

Alex Gordon LF

Billy Butler DH

Eric Hosmer 1B

Salvador Perez C

Mike Moustakas 3B

Jeff Francoeur RF

Miguel Tejada 2B

Jeremy Guthrie P

[jshep]

Miguel Tejada somehow still hanging around despite being bad. Impressive.

[Glen]

We're going to win.

 

Or lose.

 

 

Sometimes when you win, you really lose.  And sometimes when you lose, you really win.  And sometimes when you lose or win, you really tie.

 

That said, we're gonna lose.  I feel it.

[yk9001]

The Angels are barely favorites tonight in Vegas.  At home, against the Royals.

 

With all this 'talent'.

[TroutField]

The playoff push starts tonight!....

Lol jk

[gotbeer]

So anyone watching or going to the game tonight?  I'm still 50/50 on if I even want to turn it on.  

[Marsaka]

Scioscia still trotting out the same fail lineup that cant score any runs.  He'll never change, never makes any adjustments to help get the team going.

[2002_halos_II]

Aybar is back so it is a different lineup. Who would you suggest? We've seen Harris/Shuck/Conger already.  

Hope PB gets well soon. And Weaver.  

Oh yeah, I'm paying for MLB.TV so it will be on the PC. Last night I turned the sound OFF b/c I was multi-tasking (watching TV) at the same time.

[Marsaka]

i dont get how a 200 hitter is still hitting 5th?  pujols is not the same guy anymore, hes a .230 hitter, move him down.

 

 Id put trout, callaspo, trumbo, shuck, pujols, aybar, ianetta, hamilton, kendrick in that order.

[Hollyw00d]

They bring that "veteran presence"

Talent is what we've been told they have. I have serious doubts about that claim.

'Tis a silly lineup that makes no sense

I thought Hamilton was out for a couple days with a yeast infection?

I think that would be preferable to "being allergic to West Coast Weather"

[Quinlanforthewin]

1. Holy shit Miguel Tejada is still alive?

 

2. Josh Hamilton is an absolute warrior.  This is Michael Jordan with the flu.  For him to battle through withdrawals a cold is truly remarkable.  

[Quinlanforthewin]

Way to pull up Trout

[bloodbrother]

Way to pull up Trout

 

I'm ok with it. No reason for him to run into walls and hurt himself in what is pretty much a lost season this year anyway. Stay healthy

[Quinlanforthewin]

Yeah you're probably right.  Just never like to see lack of effort especially when Bryce Harper is running full speed into walls. 

[Jason]

Hey Butler made an out!
