I still can’t get over the fact that Gosselin and Mayfield are the 3 and 4 hitters.

this is one of the worst lineups any team has put this season

It's a decent spring training lineup.

Don't you think the guy needs a rest?

Yeah. Trout should take another year or two to make sure that calf is completely healed. We've got Marsh so no worries.

[fan_since79]

Gosselin is the only hitter in the lineup with an OPS over .600.

He's at an even .700.

Not sure where you're getting that.  Unless I'm missing something, everyone except Naughton and Rengifo is over .600.

Rengifo sucks

[Revad]

And Renfigo strikes out on three pitches

Snell may very well throw a no hitter against this line up for the Angels tonight.  Not expecting a lot tonight.

Plus vintage Snell has returned.

Past 40 innings, 1.60 ERA, 0.80 WHIP, 60/12 Ks/BBs

[Revad]

Where’s the pitching?  Is it really all in the NL West?  

[Waybackman]

This line up would shame Murderer’s Row. What a shit show.

Bears zero resemblance to the guy from 2019, who actually showed a little potential.

That ain’t there anymore.

I meant they were in the .600's. I didn't word it very well.

Gosselin is down to .697 now.

Why are you guys watching this crap

[Waybackman]

At least Packy’s showing some spunk. He didn’t get the memo yet about Angel pitchers having to suck.

Dumbass response.

Sorry

Is lack of a partner acceptable as a partial excuse.

[fan_since79]

Fans attending might see a perfect game tonight. Certainly has that feel.

Watching Adell and Marsh... and Packy

[Revad]

To further define partner I can’t explain what that is but for me maybe a female human life form that’s still breathing and you’re not paying for anything in particular 

[totdprods]

Probably gonna jinx him but I'm really digging the way Packy pitches. 

Seems like he could be the type of arm that gets blasted once the league sees him once or twice, but he also might be just funky, deceptive, and crafty enough that he keeps guys guessing long enough to make a career. 

[T.G.]

Have a seat, Kim!

My daughter invited me down.  We had such a great day today.

The game is the worst part of the whole day.

[beatlesrule]

Exciting pitching matchup at least.

[PattyD22]

Maddon pinch hitting for Naughton.  Solid managerial move

You might see a perfect game. Only 23 in baseball history.

I've seen one on TV and listened to two others. I missed Mike Witt's perfecto on the last day of the 1984 season to watch a Raiders game.
