we might fall behind the Mariners after this game, how are they even within striking range of us?

Yes...with only 117 games to go.  Who gives a shit?

He needs to bat no higher than 5th.

Simmons can bat third.

I wasn't trying to say what I would do, just what I worry will happen.

Trout knows this strike zone better than these sorry ass home plate umpires. He needs to call his own strike zone for crying out loud!

everyone laughing at Cano’s wrist 

now it’s Jerry doing the laughing 

I think people were more laughing at the PED suspension tbh

I mean that was two days ago so they haven’t really seen the implications of his broken wrist and actions yet, but whatever 

[Docwaukee]

it doesn't help that the ump is so horribly inconsistent.

Trout's getting absolutely screwed by some atrocious calls over the last week

He needs to call his own strike zone. Stupid home plate umpires acting retarded when Trout is at the plate. And always!

Every game counts 

I remember in 2015 we missed the wild card by a game or 2

Don't worry. Scioscia will fix it by shuffling the lineup again tomorrow.

Cozart 2B, Trout CF, Simmons SS, Ohtani DH, Marte 3B, Pujols 1B, Young LF, Calhoun RF, Rivera C

Get ready to bring Blash up for another chance.

Look for someone else in the minors who can hit and play the outfield.

Kinsler sits for a few days.

[Docwaukee]

we've had no runs over the last 19 innings.

In April, the entire SP was cold at once. Then, the entire bullpen got cold at once. Now it's the offense.

When they start hitting you just know their defense will start failing. 

[JarsOfClay]

Stop blaming the ump. The ump hasn't umpired Trout's last 18 ab's.

 

[nando714]

This team needs to hit the road 

ASAP

Yeah, because we're gonna kick ass and win the division. Astros are pretenders.

I actually think he's been amazing consistent, for years. 

He consistently sucks. Close to replacing Eddings as most hated, in my book at least. 

[Sherlock31]

Man the starters had been pitching really really well but without W to show for...........

There is a lot of retarded umpires, dude. Did you see one of those off speed pitch from Verlander that was called a strike against Trout last night? Good Riddance!

[nando714]

Skaggs hit 95 pitches

no wonder he’s out

I sense a team outing to Taco Bell would help. 

[eligrba4ever]

Hope J-Up was Freddie Freeman 2018 and not Freddte Freeman 2017.

[nando714]

J up was in a lot of pain 

don’t have a good feeling 

[fan_since79]

Game definitely over now.

Drive home safely, everyone.

 

[TroutField]

Losing the game 1-0 on a solo homer from CJ Cron is the cherry on top of the shit sandwich we eat every night watching Pujols clog up a lineup spot. 

 

I knew keeping Valbuena and Pujols instead of Cron was retarded. I get it Valbuena plays 3rd...

[UndertheHalo]

Johnson fu*cking sucks.
