This team is just doomed on signing outfielders to long term deals since Torii Hunter. Upton has been meh so far and Calhoun has forgotten how to hit on an epic level 

 

And the worst one was Mike Trout.

There are about 18 weeks left until somebody plays in the postseason. Calhoun has NEVER had an offensive slump this deep, although -- if I recall his splits -- his worst months have been early.

The shift is killing him.   They'll use it til he gives them a reason not to....   I don't think he suddenly sucks but I think it's gotten in his head and he's a mess as a result.

That one isn’t really included, for obvious reasons

Kole Calhoun leads MLB with 7 outfield assists and is on pace for 22 this season.

 

Calhoun also let Granderson get an outfield assist on him at 3rd that cost us a run and end the inning early.

So, the same number of assists as hits?     I kid, I kid....

More assists than the number of hits in the month of May. 

I'm serious, i'm serious....

I’m going to take this win because we needed it. Let’s get another one tomorrow on Facebook.

 And went 0 for 5 with 7 runners lob. 

If he hit .250 we don't need that assist

[T.G.]

Nice to have Simmons hitting 6th

[Angelsfirst]

Can’t believe I had to miss this one. We needed a win like this. Good to see. Let’s get the series tomorrow.

Calhoun looks like dog crap for 8 1/2 innings and then saves the game and Parker’s lousy ass

Solid summary.

3rd inning and I'm already bored to death.

So many other options for your time and yet you waste them.
