Someone tell me if this is a good baseball player

Should we start taking Dillon Peters seriously? Pretty good outing so far today.

There is a reason why they are down 7-1

Yes, because I know his stats before this year and also know that 126 PA is not a good sample size.

7.2 IP, 3 ER is not the reason the team is losing tonight.

Does Pujols get AB’s next year?

[fan_since79]

Dog days of August are here. Guys are starting to get tired. Watch Upton, Calhoun, and Pujols disappear, Fletcher and Rengifo slump, Simmons to provide his usual great defense and little else, and the team's offense to grind to a halt.

Worst case scenario of course, but not far-fetched.

[Troll Daddy]

I’m digging on Thaiss ... hope he continues to play well enough to earn a spot on the starting lineup next season.

Dylan Peters is the first Angel pitcher since Gary Ross in 1976 to go 7.2 innings in relief.

[tdawg87]

Not a good game for Fletcher.

[34red4]

Peters since being recalled 7/21: 3 G, 16.2 IP, 2.70 ERA.

La-dee-dah, La-dee-dah. More fun tomorrow on Fox Sports 1. 4 p.m.

[tdawg87]

They had a couple chances to get back into it but the offense wanted none of it.

It is when the angels only had one run till the 9th. His job was to keep it 4-1......

[UndertheHalo]

Fletcher struck out 3 times ? That’s weird.

Twice with runners on. Just not a good day for him. Could have used a hit in those later innings.

They're gonna end up finishing about where they've finished the last few years. 78-82 wins. Accept it

I don't think so. Look at the final 27 or so games in the schedule. Brutal.

We could end up with something like a 2001 September. 2-19 in our last 21 games that year.

72-90 best case.

LOL.

Of course. He's going to play out his contract until the bitter end.

So who will be the first user to call Upton the N word? My money is on azmancini.

Absolutely no doubt.
