There's Just Nothing They Can Do

...but wait for the pendulum to swing their direction with health, getting out from underneath the injury bug, and getting back on track with winning.  That's a dilapidated team of starting pitching out there now, though, with hardly any sign of light at the end of the tunnel for 3/5 more needed to win by.  IT SUCKS!!!

ive legit never seen anything like this, the volume of injuries is staggering!  almost literally every day someone new goes down.

Yep, I almost feel bad for Deck. He’s almost a certainty to head to the DL after tonight’s game 

[HaloRed]

Jake Jewell down after just acquired...Eppler's hands are merely tied at this point.  IT JUST SUCKS!!!

[Angel Oracle]

The Mets $'s on the DL are a lot more.   But do they have as many players on the DL as the Halos?

[HaloRed]

Cozart comes back, he strains shoulder, and has season-ending surgery; Lamb is put in, and within 3 outings, he goes on the DL.  Not just season ending injuries but the small stints collecting that is killing this team.  

[UndertheHalo]

It really is true.  It’s just beyond any fix. Just have to play the games.  Win as many as we can and hope for the best.  Just make moves that improve the team going forward.  We just can’t operate thinking about what we can do this year.

Either it's a fluke, or raises suspicions about the conditioning and training staff.

I don't know. I get the feeling the training staff is top notch and experienced. Is there an organization out there that avoids injury or has very little of them?

Get the lube, bend over, and take it.

I have no doubt the there are serious concerns with training staff and overall pitching instruction throughout the organization. 

All the injuries to pitchers would preclude me from signing any pitcher for more than three years.

Are we suggesting that we blame the training staff because Jewell snaps his fibula, Simmons stumbles down the dugout steps, Cozart lands on his shoulder, a 30 something catcher has knee issues, ?

I tore my elbow ligament typing this.

Pretty sure that is what they are suggesting.  That and don’t forget it is Scioscia’s fault.

I'm not sure people know how Trout hurt his finger.  

Someone spilled a tray of lasagna at the pregame buffet and he slipped and fell.

He tried the shocker and his wife was.

"Someone" = Kinsler.

What really sucks is the Angels lose a few more games Texas will pass the Angels who will sit in last place.

Sounds like our game plan against the Red Sox
