Pujols is still batting too high but at least Goodwin is batting 2nd. Ward and Thaiss need to actually start to play well. I'm not impressed with either of them.

Good news. Angels are just suffering from bad luck!

I actually mentioned it yesterday, so thanks for the validation, Joe. Upton alone has had several lineouts.

I think if Canning can throw about 7 no run innings, we might have a chance!

Why, are we expecting rain to hit in the 8th inning?

[Angel Oracle 13,259]

Can they please actually get Tucker out today?

Maddon is giving both of them chances....they need to take advantage....

Meh... BABIP is flukey but very much a talent controlled stat for hitters. BABIP for pitchers is very luck dependent, but for pitching and defense there is correlation with skill. I'm far more interested in how they look in terms of strike outs, walks and homers.

I think if Canning can throw about 9 no run innings, we might have a chance!
