Can this team just score some f'ing runs?

Trout bats next inning so maybe he can hit a solo HR

And yet we all watch.  

I'll be watching until they fall ten games back of the 2nd wild card. Then I might take a break for a while. The older I get, the less of this crap I can take.

We're really exposed now with the loss of Simmons and Ohtani.

It's Trout and a bunch of nothing.

Well yes.  We have Upton of course.  But still.  That’s 1 good hitter and 1 great hitter and trash.  It just not a recipe for success.  

Not like we’re seeing great pitchers here. 

[UndertheHalo]

It would be fine if they didn’t remind us every 40 seconds that Barria is 21 years old.  We get it.  He’s advanced.  

[Dick Enberg]

Ben gamble looks like a dirt farmer.

[GrittyVeterans]

For all the talk about Barria's pitch count, he hasn't even done that bad. He's battling through it and keeping the team in the game

This team needs better players, quickly. Even when Simmons comes back there are still holes all over the place. It's time to start trying guys from AAA and seeing what they can do. 

Also, guys like Cozart and Pujols, that are going to be here no matter what, have got to be more productive overall. They can't both be sub-.700 OPS guys

I usually slowly stop watching and going to game around August if it gets to that point

Every time Gubi mentions a pitcher dropping his elbow I want to give him an atomic one

[Taylor]

I like JMF's defense.

Miggy to have season-ending biceps surgery

Why can't Albert be so lucky

Bartolo Colon has it figured out. Don't worry about fitness or diet, and you can pitch until you're 46.

Will miss ya

[Taylor]

Maldonado: One pitch, one out.

[fan_since79]

Dodger rookie Walker Buehler has been pitching with a fractured rib for several weeks. He kept it to himself. They will shut him down now.

What do you think we are doing?

Blash, Hermosillo, JMF, and now Fletcher.

[Angel Oracle]

When will this team ever hit well in a season?????

2025??????

This team’s offense bores me to sleep.

Of course, ZERO runs against the M’s pen tonight.

Halos pen, watch the M’s pen, and LEARN!!!!!

Let's send down the entire roster except Trout, and replace it with the entire roster from Salt Lake.

Blash and Hermosillo suck. I'd give JMF and Fletcher an extended look and consider calling up Ward or Thaiss. 
It might be time to make a trade to address RF

[nando714]

Trout is all that is man

[Taylor]

Once again, Trout is a sexy beast.

Pujols is plus 700.

I’d stay patient with Hermosillo 

[GrittyVeterans]

Trout is nice

[DEVLBAT]

Woohoo!
