Team meeting forthcoming 

[Bronson]

Lmao Rendon throws like my 2 year old nephew.

[Vlad27Trout27]

we really got Slaughter by the FUCKEN MARINERS ....THE FUCKEN MARINERS.

Every single one of our hitter and arms from the Blowpen should be embarrassed.

Lights in the executive and broadcast suites in Seattle looked pretty bright when they went to an aerial shot.

Meanwhile we keep the scoreboards turned off and tell the camera guys to try not to get them in the shot.

[eligrba4ever]

Goody is trying to do it all by hiz own self. Valiant, but futile.

This looks like a replacement level team. I mean, all of it.

I mean, that's mostly been their roster building for the past several years tbh. Spend a ton of money on about 4-5 guys with most of them underperforming, and fill the rest of the roster with replacement level talent because they've been bad at drafting and developing for a while now. End result has been a largely and expensive mediocre team year after year with Trout doing the leg work just to get them to that point

 

[Bronson]

Lmao yeah now the bats wake up you jackasses.

The batting averages of Angels 3 through 7 were hovering between .130 and .185 at the start of the game. They are probably still there,.

A home run,and  walks and just 12 pitches from Robles. Nobody warming up.

It's the Maddon way.

Have a guy out there that's dominating and than randomly pull him. But keeps a guy, that struggling to locate, has given up runs in for too long. 

[Vlad27Trout27]

Get upton out of here. dude up there swinging with his eyes close.

I don't think this team is gonna seriously be able to turn the corner until they are finally rid of the Pujols albatross. Of course, it looks like Upton will pick up the slack once PUjols is gone but one bad contract is more manageable than 2

[Claude]

Nice shot Shohei 

[eligrba4ever]

Woo Hoo!!! SHOHEI GOES OPPO TACO!!!! 8-5 Seattle.

[AngelsLakersFan]

Ohtani has so much talent

[Vlad27Trout27]

I don't think Albert has anything to do with it.

[robblin17]

CANCEL PUJOLS. Take him to the glue factory. 

[Bronson]

Imagine how cool this walkoff could have been if Robles didn’t shit the bed.

[NrM]

why can't Pujols have some mysterious season ending fake injury like all the other overpaid old guys

Not true.

It doesn't help, but yes, the bigger issue has been the FO. Dipoto wasn't good and Eppler's tenure hasn't shown much movement with this org in his 5 years.

[robblin17]

5-13

Fuck Yu, We Got Pujols!
