Please, Eppler, DFA Bourjos. He can't hit anything, can't steal a base, can't get on base. He's useless.

[T.G.]

The Angels' 3,4,5 hitters look like something out of Marvel Comics. Superheros, every one of them.  If the Angels don't score 15 runs, I'll be shocked.

Truth be told... When I first saw the lineup, I thought to myself... "Oh crap!  The players must have gone on strike and these are all replacement players."  Then I saw Lucroy was hitting clean up and I realized it was even worse than that.

[Waybackman]

I may have missed something, but is Bourjos not allowed to, or unable to bunt? With his speed, why doesn’t he?

Dang, saw Pujols at 1st and remembers Oh Yeah we're playing at a NL stadium so no DH this series, and a few double swaps each game.

Also very (pleasantly) surprised to see this thread already on page 3 a full 90 minutes before the game even starts. I guess there a few of us who have this forum on another tab on the work computer open so they can "pop in" in-between work, Yeah sure!

That... is not an exciting lineup.  It's sad how pedestrian it looks without Trout putting the entire franchise on his shoulders per usual.

With wind gusts to 45 miles an hour - this is where pop-ups might land in the bleachers.  

Aren't those winds coming in from the lake?   If so, if anything balls would be pushed from RF towards CF, from CF towards LF, and from LF towards the foul ground seats?

I have to think that it will be Bour in there at least one of the next two games after today, when a righty pitches each time (Hendricks and Chatwood).

Ok,

Goodwin's career vs Lefties:

.296/.386/.535 in 71 ABs.

Better? I mean, you said he was sitting because he doesn't hit lefties well. It's not hard to look this stuff up storm.

Ok you smarter than the professionals.  I already said Ithey have knowledge that i dont know.  But you want to keep bitching go on.  I just know it gets old.  Scioscia did....let's bitch.  Ausmus dies it....let's bitch.....you ate so much better than people who make millions.  

 

Myself I dont pretend to know more than them.

This lineup...skus.

 

They'll score double digits.

[T.G.]

@Stradling be sure to give us a head's up on this thread before you run out on to the field today.  Good luck in your debut at 2B.

In 'n Out - that's what Strad's baseball career is all about.

Hopefully the Angels can keep it going and the Cubs keep sucking.

you should go to every game you can while you're there. make sure to go a few hours early to enjoy the surrounding area. (and stay after the game for the same)

then hit Division later at night.

I think autocorrect gave up on him. Need to find a lost scroll that provides the hidden translation for his posts.

Our REAL lineup won't be out there for months. Just have to stay afloat until then. Not sure if it's the same type of injury but LeBron had a groin issue and he was out for like 3 weeks. Different sport and he is older but it's what came to mind. Hopefully, Trout only misses a couple.
