Four runs in the entire 4-game series.

Let that sink in.

I’m not going to attend anymore games until Trout returns. Hopefully that’s before August 11, because I want the Hawaiian shirt.

At that pace, the Angels will score 28 more runs in August. Weird sked, btw, with a Sunday off.

Angels just set their record for fewest runs scored in a 4-game homestand!

[Erstad Grit]

I mean without Trout, Rendon, and Walsh not sure what I'd expect something good to happen. 

[beatlesrule]

A's when they play the Angels

why would you even consider this after his first 4 innings in the majors?

 

[failos]

We need Sosh. This franchise is toast without him at the helm.

17-29 vs the AL West

Not at all. The guy skipped AAA, and played an elite team for his first start. If Marsh robbed that HR (entirely possible) you’d be singing a different tune

[failos]

Screw you @jsnpritchett. I thought you were smart. Sosh is the answer—I don’t like you anymore.

If you like August's schedule with the rest of the 32 games in 32 days marathon, you'll love our little September stretch between the 7th and the 23rd when we face the Padres, Astros, White Sox, A's, and Houston again.

With all due respect to Detmers, his sister Girlfriend is absolutely stunning.

 

edit: whoops

She's the kind of girl that I could only get if I was a major league pitcher with the chance to make millions of dollars. Not saying that's the reason she's with him though.........

He’s a sexy man. A fine woman like her would date a stud like Detmers.

A fine woman like her wouldn't throw water on me if I was on fire or even acknowledge my existence if asked her to please call 911 because I've been shot.

Same, bro. Sounds like we could both benefit from therapy.

[fan_since79]

She'd notice me if I were 35 years younger.

I think he would have done better if he wasn’t forced to live in such squalor in the minors.

I honestly think I hate him.  Lol.  Probably unreasonable but whatever I don’t care.  

MAGAs are generally softer than the rest of the population. Trying to compensate for something I think.

But I like Rendon. He seems like a good dude. He can't help getting injured.

I was joking. I wasn't able to watch the game.

I hate him because he is sabotaging muh Halo’s.  I don’t give a shit about any of the other stuff.

That's why I don't hate him. I don't blame him for being injured.
