I'm surprised Trout is in the lineup. He is going to miss game one of his Eagles. 

[Vlad27Trout27]

Trout's out, Hermosillo is in.

Also has anyone told Ausmus that Barria does terrible with a opener? I don't think he's gotten the idea.

[jsnpritchett]

Trout out again now, Hermosillo in.  Really zero reason to watch this game now.

This is the day MLB hates. Opening Sunday of of the NFL.

GO ANGELS!!!! Don't just slink into the offseason!!!

Open well, Noe Ramirez!! And Jaime Barria, don't mess it up if Noe does his job!!!*

Keep Inching closer to upper-level mediocrity, one game at a time!!

Just 3.5 games behind Texas for third place!!!

*Based on second non-Trout lineup posted above.

Dumbassmus is at it again.  I thought he wished up and stop using a starter for Barria. 

[rottiesworld]

Assmus is to stupid to get it. Also in the off season we really need a catcher that can hit. 

[Stradling]

I agree Noe should have pitched better.

The best way to keep the Angels from scoring is to load the bases

What are the comparative stats between games he starts and games when he has an opener?

As a traditional SP: 10 GS, 4.88 ERA, 48 IP, 26 ER, 43 hits, 15 walks, 47 strikeouts, 13 HR
With an opener: 3 G, 10.1 IP, 15.68 ERA, 10.1 IP, 18 ER, 23 hits, 18 ER, 5 walks, 8 strikeouts, 2 HR

I give the White Sox's Manager a A+++ for leaving his pitcher there and see what he's got. A real confident builder that move was.

He gave up 10 ER in one game, 7 ER in another, and then one decent 'start'. 

 But he's never looked particularly comfortable, and I believe he's even hinted at it in interviews. 

[mulwin444]

As a starting pitcher (starting the game), Barria has given up a 1.064 OPS the 2nd time through the order and a .864 OPS thr 3rd time the order (less HRs, higher OBP).  So, no matter if he starts and had an opener, he's struggled the 2nd and 3rd time through in any circumstance.  

Point is, he hasn't pitched well regardless...it's just a matter of percentage points

the 10 and 7 runs he gave up, were when he had a opener. 

He made 10 starts outside of 3 openers he appeared in. following is collection of his results

# of ER allowed                 Starts

4 or 5                                     3

3                                             1

2                                             4

1                                             2

SO out of his 10 stats, in 7 of those starts he has allowed 3 or less runs.

Barria needs a meal opener.

Playing CF, getting on base, getting hits....   Just making a case for a Goodwin/Hermosillo set up.   When push comes to shove it's 14 mil .vs maybe what -- 1.5 - 2 mil tops?
