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

[kingsosha]

Bour might be the worst #3 hitter in baseball history 

[eligrba4ever]

The fat guy is providing great protection to Storm Chaser in the batting order.

[UndertheHalo]

I remain bullish on Bour.  I really think he’ll be fine. 

[eligrba4ever]

Oh my. He caught that while falling down in the corner.

[popo85]

Just call up Thaiss can't be any worse

[Second Base]

I hate this team that Eppler has built so much...

Not that I expected anything from Stratton but it’s annoying other teams can pick up garbage players or has beens and they have great seasons.  On the Angels they stay shitty.

I find that very annoying.

We’re going to get a ton in return for Stratton at the break when we’re 18 games out.

@Chuckster70, time for a drink.

Pujols going beast mode tonight. 

[UndertheHalo]

LaStella on the other hand is not going beast mode.

When was the last time Pujols was on 2nd with 0 outs twice in one game?

Albert ties Honus on the all-time doubles list. 

[Lhalo]

I can’t believe Albert made that haha!

[eligrba4ever]

Held my breath on that Albert gallop. 4-2 Seattle.

[UndertheHalo]

Lol god Pujols just cannot run.  Lucky to score there.

He needs 3 more doubles

[Vlad27Trout27]

alright let's keep the game close and take our chance against the Bp.

[Lhalo]

Felix is hanging curves tonight.

[Lhalo]

Mariners going full retard.

[Vlad27Trout27]

and this Why flecther should be starting!....keep putting ball in play, this defense is garbage.

[AngelsHilo]

Where's the balloons in this circus?

[eligrba4ever]

Getting close on Felix. Smith costs Mariners as many runs in CF as Dee did.

[UndertheHalo]

Seriously though, it’s a pretty perfect example of the problem with Pujols.  Running is a part of the game.  He cannot run at the level that is required of a professional baseball player.  Imagine being in a playoff game with Albert being on 2nd and not scoring there.  Imagine not scoring in that situation in any game.  He wouldn’t have scored on an even average throw from outfield.   It’s not a workable situation.  He’s literally a handicap for the team. 

[rafibomb]

Stratton NEEEEEEDS to keep this thing close to keep the momentum going
