Gameday Thread: 6/15 Angels @ A's: Young, Briceno, Fontana 7-8-9

So I guess it's Valbuena at 3B and JMF at 1B against righties. And Fontana at SS. It is what it is. Too bad for Fletcher. Hope the Angels face more lefties.

You mean against righties?

Yup

In a perfect world, sure. 
 

But this is a world where Akeel Morris and Oliver Drake would be a thing permanently if he wasn't here. No one can tell me they'd rather send those studs out there over him

That's because we released Bard and Krol

Wait... The Angels are up 8-3 in the bottom of the 9th and you guys are bitching about the relief pitching? 

You must be new here.

I do think it’s cool to finally see my name on a big league jersey. I’ve never seen it before. 

I don’t know if you guys read my notes, but I did ask why he didn’t play. He didn’t really give me a straight answer, other than saying “he’s going to get his chances.” It seems like they just want to play against lefties for now. 

Also, I believe Fontana is considered a better SS (although tonight he had some issues).

While I understand your frustration, I think who bats 9th in one game is probably not that big of a deal. 

Thanks @Jeff Fletcher for the sanity post.
