I'm sure Goodwin will make it up with his stellar bat. No worries

[UndertheHalo]

I suspect that Strad is not having a great time.

GoodLOSER!!

I had more fun watching Kershaw pitch for OKC tonight than I have since I got home and turned the TV on..... And now I'm turning it off.

[OregonLAA]

I can’t imagine we don’t have someone in the minors who can play terrible defense in left and strike out a lot, but with maybe a tad more upside

[nando714]

At least tickets will be $3 in April again!!

Some here might say he played that spinner just like Jupton.

[VariousCrap]

Can the Angels please get Denard Span for LF???  He will be cheap, is a better hitter than the two schmucks we currently have and we don't have to see plays like that with him in the field.

[popo85]

Bour and Cozart are a  combined whopping 3-41

Eppler deserves criticism for essentially ignoring the offense.  I’m 100% happy to give him credit for the many great things he’s done for the Angels.  But he’s been wildly bad about the offense.  He’s never said anything other then bullshit about how he’s “comfortable” with the line up.  

This is a bad hitting team.  It was a bad hitting team last year and the year before.  Ohtani is one player.  He hasn’t done nearly enough when there have been plenty of good major league hitters available.  It’s not good at all.  

Also, one can acknowledge that the farm system has some exciting players approaching the big leagues.  While also understanding that there’s no way the farm is going to plug all of the holes this line up has.  The Angels FO has fuc*ked this up in the near term.  Good prospects coming up or not.

Glad I didn't waste money to go to the game.

[bloodbrother]

Offense going off tonight at least! 3 runs!

Does anyone know if the cheap beer is still $4.50?
