Bruce. Bomb. Sigh.

[Stradling]

I’m here.  Although I should be productive and get the house ready for a wedding next week.  

[beatlesrule]

Remember when Jay Bruce was very very available and the Angels could have easily traded for or just signed him? Good times.

No.

[tdawg87]

This pitching staff is cheeks.

[southpaw]

ok....  I dislike Gubicza as an analyst but he brought up two great points in tonight's broadcast:

 

1. the lack of lefties facing lefty Gonzales (when it can neutralize his best 2 pitches)

2. he called the 3-1 fastball home run that Bruce just hit out. Sigh... stupid pitching continues......

Remember when he got 3 years and $39 million.  Remember when he has batting .176, you know worse than our current Right Fielder and signed for another year.  

[Stradling]

Jesus Christ he is bad.  Stop guessing, look location (the strike zone) and swing the damn bat.

[Vlad27Trout27]

Marco's only throwing 84 and these guys can't even touch it.

Ya Jay Bruce is definitely not the answer.  Just another guy we’d all be bitching about non stop. 

[Lou]

lol @ Jay Bruce

Yep, He hit a home run, big deal.  Kole did that yesterday.  The idea is to improve not stay basically the same at the cost of an extra year.  

[Stradling]

Come on Trout, do something.  It has been a minute.

[Stradling]

Nope

[tdawg87]

Trout has been shite since returning.

[eligrba]

Nice at bat Albert.  You hit the shit out of the lower part of that ball.

[beatlesrule]

Why in the world did that fan duck while wearing a baseball glove?

They haven’t started booing him yet so I guess he’s ok. 

[Docwaukee]

this is the inning that Pena usually starts to lose it.  Can't keep his command beyond 3 innings.  

[UndertheHalo]

Good to see Simba getting some hits here the last few nights.

That was Taylor Ward in the stands.

What I can say with 100% certainty is Ward would not have made the play Cozart made on Dee Gordon.
