Falls behind and gets his FB hammered. The bugaboo for Canning thus far in his short MLB career

Yup, and the Blue Jays are providing that work in progress. Too bad he has to walk off without the chance for a win tonight. 

Maddox gave him a chance- I thought Canning was looking good but one bad mistake...

[rafibomb]

A lot to like about Canning's start today. Toronto is a legit lineup even without Springer.

Fucken Shit... Canning Sucks.

I agree another worthless pitcher on the team that shouldn’t be on the Angels

[eligrba4ever]

Jays' broadcasters were chatting about the good condition of the field -- before they were rudely interrupted by Baby Biggio's tying bomb. Before the bomb, Dave Campbell said the field reminded him of Anaheim, which he considers the best infield on which to play.

Where’s Bemboom

[eligrba4ever]

Someday, soon I suppose, the Angels will have a starting pitcher register a W.

[rafibomb]

Hi @Tank!

[rafibomb]

Looks like more late-game heroics will be needed for this one.

[eligrba4ever]

Thanks Dipoto.

Yikes! Pitchers not handling their business tonight 

[tdawg87]

Like I said, every fucking series.

Btw, the SP has quietly been a big problem. The offense has just bailed them out.

[Vlad27Trout27]

In other news Bauer is getting Investigated for any External Substance use on the balls.

 

 

MLB should also check in on that one pitcher on the Yankees, who is an Ex Astros...and he used us.

Well to be fair for some dumb fucking reason we had to face 3 of the top offenses in a row.

We're going to have to outscore teams this year.

Yeah, that's the object of the game.

[Angelsjunky]

Canning had a very Heaney-esque start: dominant in terms of Ks to walks, but some big hits and overall a poor showing. 

While its very early, so far it looks like the Angels have two good starters in Bundy and Ohtani, and a bunch of back-end rotation guys. At least one or even two of those four need to step up and join Bundy and Ohtani in the #3 or better category.

Smartass.

I thought it was to have the best WAR.
