Josh Hamilton tonight

[jshep]

2nd worst hitter on the team at this point, including the bench guys.

 

At least his OPS is still 29 points ahead of Brendan Harris!

Him barely jogging on all of his double plays is just disgusting. At least when Pujols grounded out he was sprinting. Props to Pujols for hustling. Hamilton looks like he just doesn't care. I could like the guy if he looked pissed or was hustling his butt off. But he looks like he's barely trying out there.

Ha...Rangers wanted to resign him actually,but ..but... the Angels came out of nowhere AGAIN!! So,I think there it is..

[Lou E Ville]

If he had resigned with Texas, what do you think he would be hitting right now?

 

It's like there's a curse on this team....anyone who makes big bucks produces big sucks.

Well hello there Mr. 1 Post. Nice of you to join us. By the way, this guy is totally not bitter. Nope, not at all.

He is the Nightmare Child (yes, this is a Doctor Who reference).

Arte "heck of job Brownie, err Joshie."

[WestistheBest]

There's something wrong with this guy, no way someone with his talent is this bad, for this long. Add 3 horrible months from last season, I think he's done. The accusations of "he doesn't care" is typical when a hitter like this can't hit anything, I don't think that's it, I think it's something worse.

-.477 WPA for the game. Solid

 

Josh Hamilton had a nightmare game last night 

 

"For those of you who want a statistical measure of this badness, note that Hamilton’s Win Probability Added (WPA), which measures how much a player contributed to his team’s win or loss on a given day, was -.477. That means he, all by his lonesome, reduced the Angels’ chances of winning last night’s game by 47.7%."

It's things like refusing to take Hackilton out of the #2 spot that led to two of my friends calling Scioscia SSTM (Stubborn Scioscia the Moron).

A nightmare game from the Nightmare Child.

I don't think I've ever seen a WPA that low for one game. That's abysmal.

Had Bourjos got his bunt down it might have been nearly -1. Bases loaded 1 out bottom of the 9th GIDP.

Last month from Rangers GM Jon Daniels:

 

"Josh Hamilton 'a feel player'; This is not a guy that watches a ton of tape" 

 

"I wanted him back. I’m not going to shy away from that."

 

"We wanted him back on our terms." 

 

"He’s a natural-swing, feel hitter. I think he’s got to feel comfortable with

a lot of things around him. It’s a big change going from one organization to

another."

so....

I want Josh back to Texas,too...  even "NOW"!!

just think he's not a good fit for Angels..

besides, seems like everyone signs with Angels sucks all of sudden..don't know why..sorry~

 

If he had resigned with Texas,maybe he would be fine... 

so,you guys wanna trade him back? I'm OK with that~

He's a feel player? I'm not even sure I know what that means. 

[AZMike]

It means when he sucks he can chalk it up to "I'm just not feeling it" and do nothing intsead of actually trying to fix the problem by doing drills, reviewing tapes etc.

I hope Hamilton develops taste buds in his asshole.

[rageous]

Scioscia should have pinch hit for him in his last at bat.

A hit wins the game for the Angels and the chance of Josh getting a hit there was 0.0001%.

I hope Hamilton develops taste buds in his asshole.

I thought I've been around long enough to hear every possible insult.......I was wrong.

[Troll Daddy]

Hard to imagine Josh ever having a nite like that, ever!
