Gameday Thread: Angels vs. Mariners (6/12/2018)

[bloodbrother]

Cam comes in to put the exclamation point on this loss as he often does.

[Biergott]

Rolling over to the big scary first place team

[DEVLBAT]

I have better shit to do than watch this.

[eligrba4ever]

Game is beginning to speed up on the Angels pitchers. Bedrosian. 4-1 Seattle.

[robblin17]

And as quickly as I’m in, I’m out. Have a good night fellas. 

[VariousCrap]

Like Valbuena, Bedrosian is a piece of shit.

[Adios]

Seattle really is overachieving this year.  They simply aren't that good.  Watch next year they will be battling for last place.  

[Stradling]

I like that pitch

[Biergott]

Someone needs to burn the mattress, it’s been shat upon again

So sad and looking truer and truer every day. Trout normally looks stoked after hitting a HR. The look he had tonight was one of “do something losers.” 

More like "Why can't these guys figure out how to play baseball?"

Is this a real statement ?

 

[UndertheHalo]

At least Jabari Blash is up next inning. 

 

Chins up fella’s

[nando714]

When do we play the shitty teams again?

[UndertheHalo]

Hahahahahaha

Blash is retarded.

We can't keep rolling out this lineup night after night. We just can't. 

Radical changes need to be made NOW!

Agreed that change needs to be made. The problem for this season though is that this roster has about 7 or 8 completely terrible hitters. There's just no way they can adequately replace all of them midseason. The offense is gonna be a problem all year long, just as it was last year. Eppler swung and missed on his infield additions(Kinsler and Cozart) and Kole suddenly turning into one of the worst hitters of the past 100 years sealed things. We already know Pujols isn't going anywhere so his terrible bat is cemented into the lineup. It's 2B/3B/RF + bench options that need a massive improvement in talent

I don't know, man. They are overachieving but I don't see them totally tanking. Segura/Cruz/Haniger/Gordon is a nice offensive nucleus. Healey looks promising too, and maybe Seager turns it around.

I think they're an 85-90 win team even without Cano. 

[UndertheHalo]

It’s really annoying that the Dodgers somehow dug up Max Muncy and he doesn’t suck anymore. 

[GrittyVeterans]

Has Blash done a single thing that resembles a Major League ball player? Or was the foul ball the high water mark?

He's got a point tbh. I don't think they'll be battling for last place but they'll be closer to a 78-82 win team next season. They're pretty much this years version of last years Twins

First it was Justin Turner. Then it was Chris Taylor. Now it's Muncy.

They've been doing it pretty routinely

Yea maybe copy what they’re doing I guess. 

The Marte and Blash gets aren’t working.

I just don’t see it as having 7 or 8 bad hitters, mainly because I go with positions.  LF, CF, SS, 2nd, Fernandez, those are all fine, and for a catcher Maldonado is fine.  We need to solve RF, and 3rd.  Albert is who he is, but he isn’t horrible, not with runners on base.  

[Angel Oracle]

Get rid of over 1/4 of this 25+ man roster!!!!

BadRock, Johnson, Valnobuena, BlashTrash, Marte, Young, and Cozart ,  take a hike!!!!!
