Gameday Thread: Angels @ Mariners (7/10/21): Sandoval on the mound, Mayfield at 3B, Iglesias hitting cleanup

[eligrba4ever]

Flexen started the season in the pen. Tonight he pitched like Gerrit Cole, giving Servais the flexibility he needed for Sunday's bullpen game.

So going forward should we call you an asshole or a piece of shit?  

I’m an asshole because I don’t care that a baseball player got injured? Lol okay. 
 

Why do you care that he got injured? Let me ask you that. Is it just the “bad for baseball” thing or is it something else? 
 

I guess I just don’t see injuries as a big deal. I’ve been through a lot in my short life so far and I just don’t see a baseball player getting an injury worthy to care about. Even when Trout got injured I was upset but I didn’t feel “bad” for him.

Taylor Ward is kinda mediocre

[rageous]

Seriously WTF this ump is not calling a strike right on the edge against Mariners and he calls pitches full 3 inches outside as strikes every time against the Angels.

i think you should re consider this position as its insane and ridiculously immature.  also, i wasn't crying.  i said it sucked he got hurt.  which it does.

Sucks for the Braves I guess. But why would I care about what sucks for the Braves?

[Angels Fan Forever]

Ward really sucks right now. He's slumping again.

1 for 15 with 8 K's in the last four games.

i think you could have just not commented instead quadrupling down on your silly take on being as cold as humanly possible about sports ball bad luck.  like everyone knows that its not necessary to have a wake for Ronald Acuna over this injury.  its just a shitty break and its normal to to say "that's too bad"-  instead you have this militant cold disregard lol.  like fine. shut up about it lol.  you're the one being weird.

Rather be weird then normal. Guess normal people care about injuries to other players. Okay got it.

Good game from Sandoval. Sorry that the offense and defense let you down.

[AngelsLakersFan]

Great game tonight from Sandoval. Too bad he walked that guy and cost the team the game 

[TheLordofOuts]

Man. Sandoval deserves a W here. Hopefully, Ohtani hits a 3-run Jimmy Jack to give him a shot at the W.

[Revad]

Yep.

Yes, it is normal for people to care when others get injured.

[Stradling]

Acuna is one of the best players in the game.  He’s one of the most exciting to watch.  A torn ACL could severely change his game going forward.  That totally sucks. 

[Justin]

Good job, Patrick. It doesn't look like you'll get the win, but good job.

the mariners pitcher has been great too.  even better than sandoval unfortunately.  we'll see if we can crack this vaunted mariners bullpen.

[Stradling]

Really good game from Sandoval.  Every outing he has helps me feel better about the future.

We get it.  You happen to be shitty.

Because tdawg isn’t an asshole.

I am telling you that the Angels starting rotation is fine now.

They need bullpen help more than ever though.

Their offense was being carried by Ohtani and tonight is what happens when he is not hitting.
