6/23 Gameday thread Angels at Cardinals

[Lou]

Crap. They're praising Skaggs...

[failos]

Commentators jinxing Skaggs 

[eligrba]

Here is where Skaggs sacks up and gets the last out.

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Too much praise too early for Skaggs...

[AngelsLakersFan]

Nice to see Skaggs get out of that jam.

We may never see Lucroy again....

[Lou]

I love the shift!

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

And we're back to the good Skaggs...

[Justin]

If you told me Skaggs would pitch 5 scoreless innings today, I would have been thrilled. 

Now man up, offense. This weekend has been pathetic.

If Skaggs gets up this inning, do we hit for him or let him hit since he is going strong ATM?

Yes.

Do you take the 5 innings Skaggs has give you tonight and go to the pen?

Or do you roll the dice, let him start the sixth and wait for something to happen?? Anderson getting loose. Skaggy about to bat.

What would Scioscia, er, Brad do?

really depends on the exact situation when the spot comes up

[tdawg87]

Let Skaggs hit. No one else is doing anything.

Who did Shohei "shock" by coming to Anaheim? Maybe Seattle fans? Almost everyone thought it was between three or four teams, of which the Angels were one. 

Sometimes I think ESPN doesn't pay much attention to teams on the West Coast.

I know its early still, and I don't mean to jinx it, but it's kind of hilarious that the best umpire we've had behind home plate all week has been Angel Hernandez...

jerk 

[eligrba4ever]

Ohtani gets the call!! Thank you for your 5 innings, Skaggy.

They were all sure he was going to the Yankees

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

I have a bad feeling about the rest of this inning... I hope I'm wrong...

[Angelsjunky]

I'd rather see Skaggs bunt and stay in the game, then given La Stella a chance with two outs.

Come back when he misses 7 or 8 more.

ESPN  is all over Yankmees-Sux. And Cards-Cubs.  Everything else fills the nights between those matchups.
