Gameday Thread: Giants @ Angels (6/22/2021): Heaney on the mound, Rendon dropped to 5th

[rageous]

The Angels defense is bad enough without putting Ward at center and Rengifo at right.

JFC it's not like Rengifo provides much in bat either.

[UndertheHalo]

If Rengifo needs “on the job training” in the outfield why the fuck is he out there lol ?

Absolutely ridiculous to sabotage our already terrible defense to get him in the lineup.

In 1985 defense was super shitty and wasn’t valued by the manager. 

[nando714]

Giants look like the best team in baseball. Oh wait. 

[Angelsjunky]

Just a reminder: Rengifo is hitting .313/.313/.563 with a 138 wRC+ since being called up. Only four games, but still.

[bloodbrother]

Angels face a bad team again on July 2 so there is that to look forward to

Hope Heaney gets checked for foreign substances soon.  Maybe we’ll get lucky and he’ll get caught

lf this the way he pitches with sticky stuff he would really really suck without it.

[nando714]

9 games out after tonight 

Peace out 

[UndertheHalo]

Imo, down by 4 is right where the Angels want to be 

[Vlad27Trout27]

If Rengifo catches that ball. Heaney is out of that inning without allowing any runs.

True, but it's still on Heaney to not shit the bed when something goes wrong.

[fan_since79]

I just turned the game on and it's already 4-0?!

This season is too much...

Heaney still sucked after that. That is just making excuses for pitcher that folds under pressure

Yes

[Bronson]

Still can’t believe Maddon put Rengifo in RF.

[ukyah]

boy oh boy, the angels get dominated by the good teams.

Maybe the Manager could perhaps....not just play guys all over the place without a care in the world. Not hard to see why the defense is so bad when guys are being shuffled to all different positions even ones they've never played or barely have throughout their careers.

Good teams usually beat the mediocre and terrible ones

I would have sent Ohtani home. Crawford was leaning the other way. Probably would have made it.

No way he would have thrown home on that play.  You’re right.  You want to keep the runner at 2nd on that.

I agree with you
