Gameday Thread: Angels @ Rangers (5/18/22 5pm start): Ohtani on the mound, Wade in LF

[Angelsjunky]

I wonder how many of Trout's HR came in low leverage situations. 95% of them?

3 of the last 4 innings began with the BP giving up a leadoff homer...

That's the Angels bullpen we've known and loved for years now

[Blarg]

Wasted another good start by Ohtani. 

[Lou]

Ha. I go downstairs to get something to drink, come back up and the game is over. 

I'm sorry.

I say last night nothing is more frustrating than late inning bullpen implosions so they double down it tonight and give up a walk off homer. 
 

ugh i might take a week off and check back.

The whole point of a comeback rally is to win the game and KEEP THE LEAD you dumb morons.

Basically the 9th was Jimmy telling that guy to get rid of his wife's fur coat, and the 10th was the guy showing up with the pink cadillac.

At least they were all solo shots.

[Docwaukee]

the pen has actually been pretty bad from the very beginning of the season.  2nd worst FIP.  5th worst WPA.  5th worst number of melt downs.  3rd worst k/9.  4th worst WAR.  And it's cost a shit ton more than last year.  

Bullpens are volatile.  It's why you don't spend much on them.

It’s almost like they’re the only situations he plays in.

It’s ok, you only missed one pitch

Series like this and the O's show that this is still the same old Angels

This really took the wind out of our sails. I’m pretty worried right now, bullpen is not reliable and the offense is questionable 5-9 and actually 4-9 if Rendon is going to hit .200 all season. 

Haha.  Rendon has a better than league average batting average, not that batting average means too awful much when you get on base as often as he does.

[Lou]

I'm hurt that nobody asked how my ice tea is. 

Selfish bastards.
