Radical lineup changes

1. Trout.  No one pitches to him and he will be on base about 60%of the time

2. Fletcher, great contact guy.  Can hit and run can have Trout steal for RBI opportunity.

3.  Simmons.  Another very good contact guy.  We should drive Try out in.

4 Goodwin....only other guy in the lineup that ca hit.

5-9. Who cares

[Stradling]

I obviously don’t pay much attention to the Angels or managers they have had.  It seems like the line up is very similar to last year.  Didn’t we get a new manager?  

[Slegnaac]

Even the new manager has to abide by the player's contract.....

GO ANGELS!!!

Go Chris Stratton!!!

I've experienced an amnesiac episode since that Lake Michigan snow day. It's better to forget the Metroplex.

New winning streak begins tonight!!!

Angels bullpen has six victories so far, the most in MLB. 

The Angels starting rotation through 18 games has 2 wins, the worst in MLB.

That's because the rotation is garbage

[UndertheHalo]

Between Gubi and the Wonder dog.  I wonder which one of them would score higher on an IQ test.  

[Lou]

does Kole reach base to lead off the 1st? 

i say yes

It's in Calhouns contract to bat leadoff?

[UndertheHalo]

Nice work Kole. 

Guy f*cking sucks 

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

I was right 

[Angelsfan1984]

Ausmus needs to get Calhoun out of the leadoff spot. Goodwin or fletch should be leading off. Need to get someone on in front of trout or he’s not going to get shit to hit all year. Upton and ohtani can’t come back soon enough. 

[UndertheHalo]

I’d like to think that one of these analytics guys the Angels have brought in recently would get in someone’s ear and maybe push them towards not leading Kole off constantly.

Pujols can't get an out at second there?

Too much spin.  So says Gubi.
