Gameday Thread: Angels vs. Blue Jays (4-10-2021)

[ScottT]

He touched the bag because he was running from right field...

Mlbtv has a feature where you can track the path that players took... I'm gonna check it out later

Quintana blows 

Game all but over

Did you see Iglesias throw?  No first baseman could ever cause that.  Also you are told to guarantee an out, and Iglesias didn’t do that.  It is on him.

4 other members/posters agreed with my post. Albert was the main catalyst for that play unraveling. The dude is a liability I know you think I just hate on Albert but he really does suck this much.

FIP!

[failos]

Nice one Quintana....POS

[Lhalo]

I’m not a fan of Quintana.

I just don’t understand the slide rule then, because yes technically he still touched the base. But you’re allowed to kick your legs out Bruce Lee style to upend the shortstop? I thought that’s what they were trying to eliminate, to make a guy have to slide directly to the base.

It's a stupid rule.

[Jay]

Too late

[southpaw]

well......  2020 Angels starting pitching redux.  :: sigh::

[ScottT]

This is Matt Vasgersian's fault

[tdawg87]

The SP has been quietly fucking awful thus far.

No, I don’t care if you hate Albert.  That throw wasn’t the problem.

Not only lose the challenge... but end up in much worse shape than if they hadn't even challenged in the first place? 

On one hand that sucked; on the other hand, I love baseball. Every game you see something you've never seen before. 

This reminds me of when I took my paper the TA gave me a B on and asked the professor if he could give it a look in hopes of changing my grade. Professor changed it to a C+

Bring back Daron Sutton!

Took 10 minutes off and just checked the score. Quintania is garbage

Add Gubicza to the list

[fan_since79]

Of course it's Grichuk.

DFA this bum on the mound!

[Bronson]

The game isn’t over yet. It is only the 2nd inning. But we need to get out shit together now.

Even Mark Goob said Pujols throw was high.

At least the Lakers are destroying the Nets.

[Stradling]

They really need to get the announcers at the ballpark.  

[Angels in 2030]

Posters who went on & on this off-season about how great of a pickup Q was and that he’s nothing like the Eppler one year SP acquisitions - not looking good for your evaluation skills 

[failos]

2 errors on Quintana? What?

 

edit: oh Matt V made a mistake

[Bronson]

Is it just me or does Marty V seem.... off...

It's ridiculous. Slippery slope.
