Gameday Thread: Angels vs. Twins (5/10/2018)

[TroutField]

Jeez that was the most Garrett Richards outing I’ve ever seen... dominant over 5 and then completely break down in the 6th. That pitch was on a tee for Dozier. 

 

Dude is not an ace and has the mental toughness of a middle school girl. 

[Lou]

I look forward to reading the outrage about Scioscia not letting Richards finish the inning.

It almost seems like Garret Richards talent is wasted on him due to his being a mental midget.  I can't think of any other pitcher who could go from dominating a team to falling apart as quickly and often as he does.

[Adios]

That is on Scioscia.  Garrett pitched a good game but it was obvious during the inning he was done.  I was talking to the TV telling Scioscia to pull him before he coughed up most of the lead.  Instead he calmly walks out after the 3 run HR that shouldn't have happened.  Why Scioscia, Why?

Alvarez will be in 100 games at this pace

f'n sosh

We should remember this inning every time people get pissed when he pulls a pitcher that is cruising.

That home run knocked 3 points off my week's fantasy total. I'm already facing a big deficit because of Paxton.

[failos]

Is Richards crying? 

[Dick B Back]

Gubi calls Richards one of the toughest right handers in the game. What an absolute homer.

You will be the only one outside of the crazies that think this way.

The homer is on Richards. It's his job to finish at least 6.

So you disagree?  It wasn't obvious that he should have been pulled earlier.  Ok.  Agree to disagree.  

[Jason]

Good job Alvarez

[eligrba4ever]

Well, golly dang!!! Tied by Herr Kepler!!!

[failos]

Damn it.

[IheartLA]

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!

[Lhalo]

Thanks ump. Bring on the robots. 

[DEVLBAT]

Gee shocker.

It was obvious to anyone who isnt blind that Richards was laboring. I disagreed with pulling Barria early, but RIchards should have been pulled, especially since he has a history of doing this shit.

 

[TroutField]

So he struck out on the pitch prior but Scioscia is asleep at the wheel? Now the 4 run lead has evaporated what in the F*ck...

I think he called it a foul ball.  

[HeavenlyHalos]

Way to argue it Sosh!

[eligrba4ever]

Might have been better if the umpire gave the dude first base instead of making him hit again.
