Gameday Thread: Angels vs. Rockies (5/8/2018)

Damn I was way wrong on Moustakas. I wanted nothing to do with him but dude's got 2 HR tonight and is now at 10 for the year meanwhile Cozart stinks

Gubi's "secondary pitch" count: 3

It’s unlucky to be superstitious.

People who don't have superstitious usually don't believe in God either.

At least Cozart didn't hit another fly ball

Normally I would agree, but at Coors Field that wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.

It's only May.

Come home to the Angels soon, Nolan Arenado

 

Please

Nice inning Heaney.

 

Wife thought the ball Blackmon hit was out and headed right for us. It was obvious Trout had a good read on it.

I think Moustakas for 3b and Cowart for 2b would have been a good pair....

Blash skus.

[GrittyVeterans]

Blash is going to embarrass himself more than Calhoun.

I bet I know where that weed smell is coming from 

[Taylor]

Heaney put together a better AB than Kinsler, Blash, and Maldonado.

Ha. Nope. She was watching the ball. I was watching Trout.

bookmarking your post for August when Cozart is batting .190 and Moustakas has 30 home runs.

Blash is your prototypical 4A player. I do like that the Angels were trying do something in RF though. They aren't moving on from Kole this early but he did need a break because he looked lost at the plate. The hope was that Blash could provide some sort of jolt in the short-term since he was white hot in Triple-A

That dude with the red eye black is def enjoying the lax Colorado regulations...

[fan_since79]

Blash's swing is so full of moving parts I'm surprised he doesn't fly apart into little pieces.

 

[bloodbrother]

Ian Desmond and Kole Calhoun. The 2 worst qualified hitters in MLB in the same stadium. What a treat this is for the fans in Colorado

He’s going to be a Blash in the pan.

[fan_since79]

Royals scored 10 runs in the top of the 1st in Baltimore.

O's pitcher allowed four HR in the inning without getting an out. First time that's ever happened in MLB.

edit: sorry, that belongs in the other thread.

I live in Northern California and watch games on mlb.com streaming. It has to be the most inconsistent quality of any streaming media. I have a good internet connection, but it freezes or goes  fuzzy all the time. Does anyone else have these problems?
