Gameday Thread: Rangers @ Angels (5/25/22): Detmers on the mound, still no Ward

[HeavenlyHalos]

Mayers is such shit. The good news is we have a few players that are great DFA candidates

[TrumBomb]

Mayers has been shit for a long time why is he still on this team

[Angelsjunky]

Looks like I haven't missed much of a game. I think I'll go back to not watching. Just wanted to let y'all know.

[Amazing Larry]

Wade is worse than Adell in the outfield. 

[Angelsjunky]

Oh, I saw that. It is so good that we have a fourth outfielder.

FFS, Maddon. Get over your Wade fixation. 

And Minasian, call up Adell. He's actually better in the OF than Wade.

[UndertheHalo]

Mike Mayers is not my friend.  

[tdawg87]

Wade is mentally retarded.

[tdawg87]

The bullpen ERA keeps going up and up...

[Mark68]

Mayers needs to get Halloweened.

 

Also, as much as it pains me to say it, I don't think Detmers is quite ready for prime time, despite the no-hitter.

[Inside Pitch]

Mayers' slider has completely cratered.  

[HeavenlyHalos]

Okay for real though, DFA Wade and get an actual OFer up here.

He honestly is. 

[TrumBomb]

I don’t think Chris Woodward would’ve been happy with us stealing bases with a 5 run lead

[bloodbrother]

Perry, it is time to DFA Mayers

Bro...  We got at least 1.3 more years of the Wade thing judging from the Rojas situation.

I know Adell needs more seasoning, but this is exactly the time that you call him back up - like a few days ago.

Yeah in hindsight, they really should have brought him up and put Ward on the IL. He's been sitting for nearly a week now and there is still no timetable on when he'll be ready to play the field. Adell has also looked most comfortable in RF and his defense was passable there. Really was the perfect time to get him back up for this stretch and get his powerful bat in there over the uselessness that Wade provides at the plate

Hey, I'm fine with Wade being on the team. He's a nice piece to have...on the bench. 

It is totally nuts that he has over 100 PA already.

Is that Puig?

He's the first guy that was going to be better than Trout. Then Harper, then Betts, then Buxton.

EDIT: Actually, Harper was "better" than Trout first.

As the pinch runner, bunter, guy he's fine.  As the manager's first choice for super sub...   Nope.  

But that's what he is.

The management of this team is horrendous
