Calhoun with Erstad effort!!!!

I don't have a problem losing a run with EFFORT like that!

Go Halos!

Suarez looks like a young Bartolo Colon.

Angels have the bases loaded 1 out Upton at the plate. He watches a 3-2 fastball right down the middle and strikes out. Calhoun immediately flies out.

[Stradling]

Ugly.  

[eligrba4ever]

Oh, Justin. That was the "mistake pitch" and you let the grand slam get away.

[eligrba4ever]

Many baserunners. No runs. Fix it!!!

[eligrba4ever]

Trout drives in one!!! Tied!!

[eligrba4ever]

200 Trout steals.

[Vlad27Trout27]

why not just walk Martinez  and face travis??

Mays is in Albert's rear-view mirror on the doubles list.

The term 'quality start' came into baseball a few decades ago I think. It meant a starter giving up 3 runs or less in 6 innings or more. 

For the Angels that should be renamed an 'impossible start.' 

 

[Glen]

I hate our pitching.

[daygloman]

Next inning OUGHT to be prosperious!?!

[Slegnaac]

The look on Goodwin's face?  Priceless

Upton flat out is the second coming of Wells, but sadly worse.  And Calhoun is continuing to demonstrate why he will be lucky to get 1 year at 7 mil  in FA. 

But, but he didn’t have a spring training. He’s only had like 6177 career major league at bats. He’s fine.

Atta boy Andrelton

There we go Fletch. 5-4 Angels 

[eligrba4ever]

Goody!!!! 2 RBI at just the right time!!!

[eligrba4ever]

Got to get this thread to 30!!!

Goodwin may be the biggest positive surprise. From the start of the year he has maintained a consistent approach. Quick bat, good power, punishes mistakes, nice plate coverage. Absolutely a lock for the roster next year. Possibly an everyday player, depending on what happrns in the offseason. 

Trending up while Upton is trending down.

Goodwin > Upton
