Gameday Thread: Angels @ A's 6/14/21: Bundy on the mound

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

I was looking forward to this game hoping against hope Bundy would be good. Well that was never going to happen...

It might be 12-1 before this inning is over.

I'd love to see C-Rod get some work here. Whether you guys want to admit it or not, he hasn't looked nearly as sharp returning from injury and would be nice to get some work in a low-leverage situation.

Maybe that’s finally it for Bundy as a Halo?    Can’t continue this bad pitching much longer.

Hopefully

I can't imagine they'd release him.  And if you trade him now, you'd get absolute garbage in return.  I wouldn't be surprised to see an injured list stint.

Bundy is trash. Thank God we didn’t extend him.

Geez he was our preseason #1.

He will pitch with a sub 3.50 ERA on the A’s/Rays next season

One thing I’ll say about Upton, he cares.

[jsnpritchett]

What's Upton jawing about?  He's the one who popped up.

I think it was to himself…

Just another example of poor scouting and evaluating by the Angels front office.  Their consistency in finding shitty pitchers is uncanny.

Maybe he’s frustrated with himself?

 

Edit: I think he was saying “Fuck AJ” in the dugout

He had  a fluke season over 60 games. Expecting him to maintain that pace out was blind optimism.

I remember when some people thought the Angels should offer an extension early because they were worried that he would become too expensive.

 

Good times.

If he was pitching like he did last year…$18 for three years? At least.

If the Rays or Dodgers are interested in Bundy, then I would agree.

Extension forthcoming....

I mean damn, Bundy pitched every bit as good as Giolito tonight. Went 6, not like that other chump.

Great pitching by Bundy. 

Renew that extension. Cancel the cancel.

Bundy going to make PM regret not getting an extension done this offseason.  

I disagree.

I am looking forward to reading about the Angel comeback tomorrow morning.
