Gameday Thread: Angels @ Mariners (April Fools Day, 2019)

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

[Tank]

7 runs minimum!

[Second Base]

Man,  that is one crappy lineup......and the Angels. 

[Angelsfan1984]

Solid lineup. Angels lose 9-0

[T.G.]

Tonight's narrative... why is La Stella hitting higher up in the order than Fletcher?  Minimum pages 3. Maximum: 6

[Broad Street]

Who's worse, Cozart or Stella or Featherston?

[Blarg]

Seattle finally made room for Gordon to play 2nd base. Dipoto is a genius.

[Angel Oracle]

No Blowzart = Yes!

[yk9001]

Wasn't there a guy here on Opening Day who said when Ohtani and Upton get back, our batting lineup is better than the Dodgers?

 

"I don't see it, Elaine!!"

[Ray McKigney]

At least Fletcher's starting against a righty

only positive outcome that will come out if this game is that we'll  make Felix look like his Cy young self and Dipoto won't be able to hold it in and sign him to a 5 yrs 100 + mil contract

 

[Broad Street]

Predicting a 7-5 Angels win

[robblin17]

We're winning tonight. Trout continues his dominance over the King.

[eligrba]

As bad as the lineup is, it is soooooooooo much better to watch than the "Bryce Harper Rumors" during the off season.

[eligrba4ever]

GO ANGELS!!!!!

Go Chris Stratton!!! He has an actual CG shutout in the National League. So there's that.

Eight Angels home runs before Felix abdicates in the third inning!!!

[Brandon]

George Arias at 3rd?

[UndertheHalo]

The Angels desperately need Brian Goodwin to be a good player.  It’s seems to me that he’s the only one of the options they have that has a chance.  The Angels are due digging up a gem.

...continuing my crusade from previous years: there's no need to say "Complete game/CG shutout."  There is no other type of shutout for an individual pitcher.

It's too bad we can't clone Fletch and dump Tommy Boy! Not too bad of a lineup except for Tommy Boy being in it!

I stared at those things and never saw a thing... I think it was a hoax...

[fan_since79]

Ausmus is trolling us with these lineups. It's getting old fast.

[eligrba4ever]

So there was a 2-hour, 12-minute MLB game between Houston and Tampa Bay on Sunday. 

How close will the Angels and M's get to that tonight?
