Adell 8th

really. 

 

Lol

[Blarg]

Every player on the lineup card is 4-10 years older than Adell.

I am suddenly really cornered that Cozart has issues with surgically repaired shoulder already. 

[Chuck]

Zack Cozart was scratched from the Angels' lineup for Monday's Cactus League game.

No word yet on the reason for the switch. Cozart needed season-ending surgery last June to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder, but the expectation has been that he'll be ready to go for the season.

Andrelton Simmons was scratched from Monday's Cactus League lineup.

Simmons came out of Sunday's game with some trap soreness, so his absence is likely related. We should know more later Monday.

Now it makes more sense why Eppler took a shot at Moustakas.

[Chuck]

 The guy pitching for the Brewers is named Bubby Derby. 

He just gave up a HR to Jarrett Parker. 1-1

[Troll Daddy]

What happen to the Gameday thread? 

[Lhalo]

Jarrett Parker is a big freakin' dude. Reminds me of a Glaus or McPherson type build.

[Make Angels Great Again]

Pena is looking real good.

Chuck locked it, he didn't want all the trolls to come back early this year.

Was thinking the same thing Mcpherson was the first player that popped in my head. 

[Dick Enberg]

Nice to see Tovar, Leon, Parker, Baldoquín, getting the job done today!

[AngelsLakersFan]

Would it bother the broadcast team to maybe put up a graphic saying who the hell is batting? 

[eligrba4ever]

The kids are providing some solid entertainment value in the early Spring. At last for today.

Barria and Pena were pretty good, too.

Light it up.

I'm so glad baseball is back!!! Was watching most of this game at work, and it just instantly put me in a better mood.

Parker is going to win that 4th OF job. I think his biggest competition is Bourjos. Hermosillo is an afterthought

I don't think so.  They need someone who can platoon with Kole.  Parker is LHed and doesn't hit lefties well.  He's probably the first option if Calhoun goes down with an injury or doesn't perform.  On top of that, he's not really an option to give Trout some DH days in CF.  

Herm is hurt which will move the team to start him at AAA so it's really just Bourjos as the option.
