A's have now scored 7. Angels coming back confirmed

[eligrba4ever]

Ohhhh. Me deflated. Barria he still got gopher disease.

[nando714]

Barria’s role isn’t pitching from the bullpen...

[Docwaukee]

sucky year for Barria.  Dude pitched really well last year even though there was some smoke and mirrors although not a ton.  Dude gets bounced to the minors in favor of a couple guys who have absolutely sucked while he toils in the minors.  Then comes up and assumes a pen role mopping up other guys crap.

The strategy tonight was to not use more than 2 pitchers. That's why the starter Barria was recallled.

[daygloman]

I once got ripped off of a foul ball just like that dude!

Gotta move man!

[UndertheHalo]

Doesn’t help that the Angels keep giving them extra outs.  

[Claude]

Danny Espinosa makes that play easily.

It was a fair chase. The old fat dude had a big head start and the lighter guy was wearing a backpack -- sort pf ;like a weighted horse blanket.

It may be time to send down Walsh in exchange for Thaiss.

Thaiss has been terrible of late.  Rojas.

Bour has a 1.025 OPS for SLC

True, but maybe a change of scenery helps? I'm pretty shocked that after the way Thaiss was driving the ball in ST that he has just a .406 slugging pct. 

Rojas has been on fire and can play as many positions as Fletcher except SS.

So?

What one player does isn't an indicator of what someone else will do.

Yeah, Bour is the guy to bring up for Walsh. I know it will be unpopular with many of you but I think that's what will happen.

I actually wouldn't mind giving Bour another shot, but he can only play 1B so it limits his value. Rojas has been on fire with the bat and can play all over the infield and LF.
