Lineup - 3-15 vs. CIN.PDF

[Don]

Move Iglesias into the six hole and this becomes my favorite regular Angels lineup. Also Stassi instead of Bemboom and Walsh instead of Pujols, but you get the drift.

GO ANGELS!!!

LET'S PLAY NINE!!!

[WicketMaiden]

Cobb looked really good last time out. If he continues like that we could be looking at another Bundy type turnaround. Not sure if that says more about the Angels or the Orioles.

If that's the case i'd imagine it says more about the Angels for a few possible reasons. 
1: Change in scenery for the player
2: Better staff with Angels
3: Competitive team to play for

I'm actually excited to see Cobb pitch, strangely enough. Last time out was excellent.

4: Doesn't play half of his games in a bandbox and against the Yankees, Red Sox, Jays and Rays.

Half? All of those AL East parks are bandboxes.

I wish they would play Walsh instead of Pujols, because that would be the probable everyday lineup in the regular season. I know Albert is having a good spring but he is old, slow, and unlikely to be this good in regular season.

I've yet to see him throw!

Doesn't look like Cobb was fooling anyone there, lots of contact

[eligrba4ever]

SHO ME THE WAY!!!

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

no matter where the pitch is Smith will say a little bit low. It doesn't matter if it's inside, outside, or high he says it's low.

[sammyscioscia]

Beautiful homer Ohtani, fully opposite field

[Vlad27Trout27]

Dam this guy, Mike Trout sucks, only hitting 200? 

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Ohtani is having such a good spring, especially when compared with his rookie ST. He won ROY after the horrible ST. Maybe he wins the MVP after a good spring.

[Chuck]

This homeplate ump completely sucks.

He's fooling the HP Ump apparently, who keeps missing clear strikes that Cobb is throwing

[sammyscioscia]

Trout must be focusing on defense, nice play!

[Blarg]

Good inning for Cobb. After the first two it was doubtful he was going to finish the third. 

[daygloman]

Go Halos!

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Ohtani, that's two...
