[TheLordofOuts]

Will Ohtani make it 3-2 or 3-1?

That’s what happens when you only have eight scouts.

Cheap Moreno

Exactly. The Dodgers are loaded with prospects and able to pull off blockbuster trades. Far ahead of us.

Barria?

Now he seems serviceable again.  Next year, he'll probably be terrible.

Stassi and Fletcher are the only reason why this game is still watchable through two thirds of an inning. 

Ohtani is why everyone watches

Why did Bundy even get the start?

so if not for great defensive plays by Fletch and Stassi, it would be 4-0 with no outs.  

Can we f'n sell already for the love of God.

Because Joe Maddon sucks

There must be a 32-yr old  reliever out there who nobody's ever heard of that's been on four different teams in the past five years. There must be!

But do they want to come to the Angels?

It's a blow out. He's just sitting there because that's what you do. There's no hugging or anything, so nothing official obviously. 

It's probably nothing at all. 

[Angel Oracle]

Let’s see if the A’s can score 20 runs.

Let Bundy pitch the first 3 innings, Quintana the next 2, ShitShek the next 2, and Guerra the remaining 2.

[Stradling]

Remember when we called up Suarez or Adell too early?  But we want Detmers called up rather than watching Bundy in a season where most fans want us to sell and then lose so we can get a better draft pick.

[Waybackman]

Leave Bundy in long enough to deck Canha.

[Angelsjunky]

I'd like to see Maddon keep Bundy in all 9 innings, no matter what. See if he can top 20 earned runs and 200 pitches, then leave him out for the coyotes.

Yep. If he isn’t ready then it’s pointless to bring him up this season. I think fans here are just excited about him and want see him play with the big club.

Meh, Maddon had two options, Bundy or Quintana...  Pick your poison situation.

they weren't loaded and just gave up their top 2.  Still not bad.  They had very good depth mostly due to a tremendous international pipeline.  

[fan_since79]

...and that ERA was pre-game.

[TheLordofOuts]

Interesting developments

[Docwaukee]

Oh shit!

We will win!

Hey Canha, lean into that one you effing prick.
