This is going to go down as one of the worst Angels teams in franchise history....95 losses is the record...I can see this team eclipsing that with this starting pitching and nothing in the lineup.  Ausmus seems pretty hesitant to mix things up so far so I can see Stratton rolling out there until July and half the lineup hitting under .215 without trying something new. 

No I think they're currently at a disadvantage without Upton and Ohtani. Big injuries have an impact.

You can't honestly think 2 players are going to cover up for an entire pitching staff of trash and at 4-5 positions that are well below average.

Of course they are but a lot of teams have big injuries so far and don't look this incompetent.  Ohtani and Upton aren't fixing this offense. 

[bloodbrother]

They won't lose 90+ games unless Trout misses significant time

alas, the whiny bitches have arrived!

If I was Ausmus I would have someone hit some M's batters clear some benches throw em off their groove

That's not a surprise.

Well I don't think those two can fix everything but they can certainly enhance the offense which at times is very lethargic. More production and more rbi's can't hurt.

This is a 90+ loss team and Trout will have a down year being pitched around all season

Trout leads the AL in war so far.

So far tonight, the Angels are sucking on LOBsters. 

GO GOODWIN!!!

Lol.  PETEY

Bourjos GS

[eligrba4ever]

This reminds me of Cowart batting because ... lefty.

[IheartLA]

once Upton comes back it's bye bye Kole to the bench

[Chuck]

Please Bourjos. Please. 

[Claude]

Just a nice base hit would suffice right now.

[bloodbrother]

Hopefully he gets HBP

[eligrba4ever]

BITTEN BY LOBSTERS!!!!

[Make Angels Great Again]

Man Bourjos sucks.

[hangin n wangin]

Bourjos is a worthless piece of shit.

[UndertheHalo]

I genuinely hate this Subaru commercial 

[Angel Oracle]

Dump Bourjos NOW!!!!! 

[Chuck]

I'm done with Cozart and Bourjos. DFA these asshats yesterday, Eppler.
