Gameday Thread: Rangers @ Angels (9/5/21): Janson Junk makes his debut

[tdawg87]

Also Rengifo regained his title as the literal worst player in MLB history.

Look on the bright side, the Angels have yet another chance to reach .500. Like Groundhog Day.

Don't steal my memes. It's illegal.

The pathetic D-Backs pushed Seattle to the 11th before crumbling. The M's are about to gain some WC ground and will be 13 over .500.

At least Adell had a good game. One of our young players having a good game at any given time is about the most you could ask for

The Mariners are a weird team. 13 over .500, but with a negative run differential around 50.

Gubi plays it straight and notes the Rangers are like the last "cupcake" on the schedule. Padres, Astros, White Sox and Athletics coming up.

Nice to see the stupid power of Adell.

The first homer was just dumb. Good lord.

But I loved the oppo shot more. Yeah, it barely cleared the line, but to me it looked like a routine line out off the bat. 

He has absolutely hilarious power. If he starts putting everything else together like he did today, he's going to be everything we dreamed he could be.

Stripling hasn’t been too bad this year…..

I mean that throw Rengifo made wasn’t good, but literally any actual first baseman catches that throw.  All of them.

Yes but Walsh doesn't suck so he gets a pass.

[Angel Oracle]

Tyler pitches 3 innings, and voila, allows 1 baserunner.

He and Adell made today’s loss tolerable.

He would have caught it but he wasn’t injured playing.

I know it was against the Rangers but 3 near perfect innings for Kyle Tyler's debut. It is criminal how he was called up on August 28th and somehow has yet to make his debut until today.

Tyler, Warren, & Wantz are looking like an improvement in the pen for next year.

________ pitcher up!

 

Junk out!
