Gameday Thread: Angels vs. Blue Jays (5/24/2018). Kinsler still leading off. Calhoun still in RF.

Let the roller coaster ride continue....

Estrada has given up 11 HR's already this year... which means the Angels probably won't hit any today.  Did I do that right?

[fan_since79]

Looking at that lineup, I don't know whether to laugh or to cry.

I'll bet he rolls that out through the entire road trip. OCD.

Cozart has a 3 for 4 game and then sits?  I don't care for that decision.  At some point in the game, the Blue Jay's pitcher will get to face Calhoun and Kinsler back-to-back and it will be the easiest part of the game for him.

[Broad Street]

At some point they have to float back to their career averages right?

[Troll Daddy]

So you don’t like the lineup 

[eligrba4ever]

GO ANGELS!!!

Go NiTro!!!! Throw strikes and pitch deep!!!

Go Bootsie, Kiiiid, J-Up, The Machine, Sho-Time, Simon  , Mono, Machete and Koleman!!

Wake up those bats early and win this series on getaway day.

It will make Customs much more pleasant before the flight to New York.

I CAN'T WAIT TO GET ON THE ROAD AGAIN!!!

[eligrba4ever]

Facebook Watch announcers: Cliff Floyd (Jays), Wally Joyner (Angels) and Scott Braun (MLBN and NHLN).

Sho-Time strictly a hitter right now and will bat all weekend against New York. 

No pitching for a while, "to control his innings," says Mike Scioscia.

[eligrba4ever]

Something that I had not heard before, or if I heard it took no notice of it: Calhoun spent the offseason trying to improve his hitting approach. He altered his stance. I can only guess he was going for launch angle like the current craze. Back to the drawing board, Kole.

If you're going to sit someone, why not kinsler and let Cozart lead off and play 2nd? Too much inconsistency doesn't allow people to get in the groove.

I hope this FB gamecast works better than the one I tried to watch last year. It conked out several times. Because it's sharing time on my one video device with this board, I will probably not post so much. 

[fan_since79]

LOL.

I just got a notification on FB that says "Two offensive powers collide as the Los Angeles Angels match up with the Toronto Blue Jays."

Fake news!

Let the negativity begin!!

(Dude the game hasn't even started yet.)

It's never to early.

[Angels#1Fan]

Go Halos

[fan_since79]

Joyner has no hair!

Still has the boyish face though. Has it really been 32 years since that magical rookie year?

How does he do it at that age?

That's a rhetorical question.

He hasn't had hair since he was 25 or so. lol

"Another solid year for Pujols so far"

Well I can already tell this broadcast is gonna be top notch

[fan_since79]

Joyner: "Solid lineup from Scioscia today. Kinsler leading off, Pujols having a solid year..."

FAIL.
