Chris Rodriguez is the starting pitcher for the Trash Pandas tonight

Good outing have Detmers and Chris Rod in rotation after July 31

Max Scherzer wants extension before he will waive his no trade. Would you trade Adell for him and 2 to 3 years of Scherzer?

[Stradling]

I doubt Scherzer is getting traded.  They are 3.5 games out and are 9-1 in their last 10 games.

Chris Rod out after 28 pitches

[Inside Pitch]

Luke, son of Phil...   He isn't likely to ever make it up to the Angels but a neat story.

[rafibomb]

 

 16 of his 28 pitches were strikes. I wish I knew which pitches he threw this outing even though it's probably still the fastball-curveball predominantly for now.

"Starter."

Unfortunately he's been pitched down.  Because "genius".

Fuck Joe Maddon.

[Second Base]

Not a big deal.  He had a 30 pitch limit, and they wanted him to be able to get up and down twice (start the game,  finish one inning and begin the next), which he did.  Next outing he'll be at 45 pitches, and get up and down three times (two plus innings). You have to figure he'll pitch once a week and build up to 90 pitches, assuming health. 

We're talking 4-5 more starts at minimum, probably not making him what many think what would be a full fledged starter until right around the trade deadline.  

Make of that what you will.

Future Starter - BP day that is

OK just hope he wasn't injured

Rodriguez should have started the season in the Minor, and with the stuff we saw from him, he could have been into the Major's as a starter right now!

But, Once again just shows how much Maddon's know. 

[rafibomb]

Orlando Martinez with a 4-hit game today. Could be a decent 4th outfielder like Hermosillo was supposed to be for us.

As much as I am critical of Maddon on a lot of decisions,  can we please stop blaming him for roster decision.  It is the GMs job to co struct the Roster.

No, because Arte has given him some power.  Simply look at all of the guys that were brought in because they had played with Maddon in the past.  That was by design.

Maddon absolutely influenced whether Rodriguez was on the roster to start the season.  To think otherwise is extremely naive.

Jose Salvador (acquired in the Brian Goodwin trade) had quite the game tonight

7.0 IP  5 H  0 R  0 BB  11 SO  94 pitches (64 strikes)

His season ERA is down to 2.82 and 1.17 WHIP with 52 strikeouts in 38.1 innings

not sure about this part but he'd be further along.  He needs consistent innings and experience.  At least they admitted their bad decision and are getting him started again.

Speaking of Hermosillo, he's hitting .362/.479/.603 in AAA for the Cubs. Only 17 games, but still. The Angels could use him about now.
