Good luck to Calhoun, let's hope he is not the same guy at the plate.

there never was a bricenio.  

is he related to bricenio hall?

I give Calhoun 1 week to hit better and if hasn't I am done with him for the year. Trade, cut, another mysterious injury. Maybe turf toe this time. I don't care but after a week if he hasn't done better he should not be starting again, except on someone else's day off. That being said Mike S will more than likely start him for a month straight where he hits .132.

[Chris]

The return of Mathis!

[Docwaukee]

If Kole hits a ball, I wonder if he'll remember where to go?  

Seriously though, seeing him in the lineup just now gave me a bit of hope.

It must be hell to be you,to hate a team that you are supposedly a fan of.You never let an opportunity pass to say something negative about the Angels.I hope you enjoy being a bitter little man.

Hell, does it matter? Another break down by the pen yesterday. We could put, Harper, Judge, Betts anyone of them in right field and it would not matter until the pen is squared away.

Also, Fletcher has gone 0-fer in his last 3 games.

I for one am happy to see Kole’s name on the lineup card!

My bad I meant see them at the same time. Seems Fletcher vs only lefties and Fernandez vs righties
