Gameday: 7/7 Dodgers @Angels

[Stradling]

Every game I think, this will be the game where we blow out the other team.  There are usually 3-4 of those games a month where a team wins by 5-6 runs, not because we are good, but because baseball is weird and things like that happen.  We don’t have many at all.  Hopefully tonight will be that night.  Deck is really doing to need the offense to show up.

Kluber appears to be opening the door for the Angels to gain another game on the Athletics.

Baby steps, people. Gotta get past the A's before anybody else.

Mariners are also doing their part today

Scioscia is shooting Fletcher in the foot

Does anyone here think Eppler likes the lineup?

If Eppler didn't like Valbueno playing over Fletcher than all eppler had to do is release Valbueno. 

It's not very difficult.  Apparantly Eppler believes there is value in have Valbueno on the roster.

Hopefully, not too many Dodgers go Upper Deck tonight.

Actually, I don't think we have an upper deck, except in foul territory. but I couldn't resist the pun.

[WeatherWonk]

All Kluber's pitching is toast. 3-3 in the 8th.

[eligrba4ever]

Darn. Go Tribe!!! Beat the pesky Athletics!!!

[GrittyVeterans]

Scioscia has to be moved on from. It’s gone on long enough, he just doesn’t adapt to situations well enough

[WeatherWonk]

To the ninth, in CLE...............

Fresh take

I knew it was ugly, but I tried to ignore how ugly until Swisher just said it. Trout's past 16 games: .160 and 16 strikeouts.

[eligrba4ever]

It;s almost as if the evil demon that was killing Calhoun's season moved over to Trout.

I am not looking forward to all of the bitching about Joe Buck.  

[beatlesrule]

Buck is bad, Smoltz is good.

I like Joe Buck. He's great in Brockmire.

It’s one of those things that I don’t get up in arms about, so if you have my personality and that stuff doesn’t bother you, but then you read about it constantly on here about how they hate the team or are favoring the other team, it simply becomes silly.

We don’t talk enough about Brockmire around here.

Scioscia should shoot him in the foot 

[eligrba4ever]

McGuire's highest pitch count this season is 64. If he gets through 5 at 75, it's a bonus.

[eligrba4ever]

Nasty sun field.

Says the guy that basically comes into a thread and posts Scioscia needing to be fired even though we all know that isn’t going to happen.

Will do. As soon as you come up with a fresh take.

[beatlesrule]

I caught Charlie Steiner calling the final play last night and you could have mistaken him for an Angels announcer with his enthusiasm.
