Gameday thread: 6/13 Angels @ Mariners

[Glen]

Thank God Young and Valbuena are back in the lineup.

[Glen]

Goid thing JMF is getting a day off.

[T.G.]

What will draw more comments... Fletcher at 3B or Young in RF?

[JarsOfClay]

I'm glad that Scioscia has already instilled in JMF's mind that he can't hit lefties even though he hasn't been tested yet.

Now if JMF ever does face a lefty, he is going to have the weight of the world on his shoulders .Another career destroyed.

[Second Base]

Completely unenthused. 

[Angel Oracle]

Overs/Unders on Young being DFA'd?    I'll set the bar at 17 days (end of June).

 

[Biergott]

Glad to see that Valbuena was disciplined for his batflip antics that lead to being thrown out at second by half a step. 

[Biergott]

Excited to see Fletcher though, and was hoping JMF would be in the lineup with him.  oh well, baby steps I guess

[stanick88]

YUUUUK, Young in right feild. 

[Chuck]

Good thing I dropped over $100 on this game to attend. 

Let's hope Trout continues to do Trout things and Richards pitches a gem. 

Also, Go Fletcher! 

5-8 in our lineup is a pile of garbage. 

Need extra alcohol today!

Too many holes on this team, even if we fill a hole at one position against a RHP, it opens a hole in another position. Same thing when we face a LHP. Platooning players sucks, takes away from the available bench if you need to two players to fill one position and even worse when you platoon 2 positions.

Bring a glove and get Trout to play catch with you between innings. Then you'll able to make the in between inning special on MLBtv.

Chris young I got nothin, but Valbuena is hitting lefties well this year: .308/.379/.500 in 29 PAs

Fernandez has an OPS in the .600s vs lefties in AAA this year, while vs righties I think is over 1.000, so Fernandez may be weak vs them.

[Docwaukee]

not sure who anyone was expecting to be in RF.

Wouldn't want to let him get comfortable or anything.

We need Richards to be the stopper today and I'm not sure if he's suited to that role. I hope he proves me wrong.

[eligrba4ever]

Hello, Facebook fans.  Yeah, I know. But anyway ...

GO ANGELS!!!!

Go Garrrrrett!!! Salvage a win at Safeco before the hop to Oaktown!!!

Go Bootsie, Kiiiid, J-Up, The Machine, Coach, Machete, CY, Mono and Fletch!!
You need runs early and often, gentlemen!! Not a one-man band today!!

WE NEED A WIN!!!

[tdawg87]

10 runs

Trout managed  a bit of history on Tuesday. He is the first AL player since Gary Geiger of the Red Sox in 1963 (I think) to homer twice in two consecutive games lost by his team.

Sorry guys but is this really the best Eppler can do??

Have no idea why Sosh gets so much crap.

Considering all of the same things took place before Eppler was even GM?
