Nice job Trout.

Way to lead the team.

Idiot behind home plate did Trout no favors a couple of times tonight.

 I really like Jack Kruger. I wish I was more happy to see his debut

How in the world does Trout not think that's a strike?

Yeah, that’s a fat strike at that.

Can we get those heckler kids from yesterday to yell at Minasian to get some fucking pitching?? 

I was about to post that they need to give the team a pep talk.

Nor did Trout. 

[T.G.]

Pathetic.

[IheartLA]

Fletcher looks terrible at the plate

[Tank]

slegers is pretty awful. he doesn't pass the eye test at all.

[failos]

I need to buy the angelslose.com domain.

I think at this point everyone just wants to get the hell out of there and rest up for another beating tomorrow night, including Trout.

The Dodgers are playing terrible but the are absolutely going to rape the Angels this weekend. Zero foreplay and zero lube. 

That's gonna really hurt badly.

I’m 100% positive you could get a lot of members.

Tempting...but I wouldn’t do that to Chuck

[Adam]

Man let’s just get all of our good minor leaguers up suck shit for the whole year and maybe just maybe we can Mid90s Cleavland Indians it over the next few

[IheartLA]

The entire bullpen sucks, pick any pitcher down there today and the result would have been the same. That's how bad it is right now.

The lineup apart from #2-4 is a collection of spare parts, AAAA material, and average/below average talent.

Maybe because he fired two managers and a general manager.  Agreed to DFA one of his HOF players.  All probably hoping that things would improve for his team.  Watched the BP absolutely torch the starting pitchers best effort of 2021.

I have to think he isn't just indifferent. 

I'll believe Moreno is serious about winning when he greenlights a mini firesale and actually starts caring about pitching.

[Biergott]

Where’d the fight go that we saw in the first two weeks?  The energy, passion, fire.  Everyone was having inspired fun it seemed.  Normally stoic players showing emotion...

...was fun for a couple weeks after what has felt like a decade of dull.  Was nice to taste the top even for a little bit.

[IheartLA]

Gonna be a short tenure for Maddon in an Angels uni at this rate

Someone should start the thread for guessing the next manager

[Slegnaac]

Just because he hasn't spent a bunch of money doesn't mean he isn't pissed at the performance tonight.

Of course it is conjecture on my part.

Wonder who Minasian has in mind.

[Don]

Ump is in get the f out of here mode.

[daygloman]

Hopefully, the series with the Dodgers will fare better. 

Go Halos!

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

Does matter who he has in mind if we continue to take the same approach to the pitching staff...

What do you suppose will be said on Alibi talk?
