Gameday Thread: Angels @ Yankees (5/31/22 4pm): Syndergaard on the mound

[fan_since79]

Here we go!

Get some runs now.

[Erstad Grit]

Big time funk. 

[DMVol]

Turrible…….

[fan_since79]

Ohtani/Trout clutch FAIL

[tdawg87]

We're watching the downfall of Mike Trout in real time.

[Angelsjunky]

I'm not even watching the game, but I wanted to see what y'all are going on about. It takes a special kind of suckage to start an inning with a double and single and not score any runs, especially when your three best hitters are up.

What a travesty this team is right now. At this point, it seems to be a bit beyond a bad spell. Something's off.

And I'm going to be in full failo mode until they turn this shit around. So sick of seeing them suck every fucking year.

8+ more years. Dude will be hitting .250 with 25 HR in a couple years.

Trout seems to have lost his swing, according to Gubi. Hope he finds it soon.

Thank you, someone else who feels like that.

[Erstad Grit]

I guess props to Rosenberg for saving the pen

[Erstad Grit]

It sucks watching Betts and the Dodgers going nuts too.

F

It just sucks

I'm going to out-AO you. Maybe I'll get Stradling off your ass.

[daygloman]

Good fuck'n grief!

[eligrba4ever]

Jose Trevino home run. 9-1 NY.

[fan_since79]

This stretch has been pretty brutal but let's not despair just yet. That 24-13 start is keeping us relevant but we need to break out of this funk quickly.

We're still very much in the hunt, at least for the moment.

[eligrba4ever]

Take heart, Phillies fans. The Angels are coming to your town. Your bullpen will like heal quickly.

[tdawg87]

What a fucking joke. Fuck every player on this team, including Mike Trout.

Pussies.

This isn’t the same team. Syndergaard was putting up much better numbers than his analytics suggested. Rendon is hurt again. The bullpen has lost its ability to get people out. We need a lot to get back on board and quickly if we want to be that same team. I think we’re gonna be in contention for the last 2 wild card spots at best.

No, not quite. Best case scenario is a 1 game playoff loss.

They also were playing very much as a team. We got contributions from everyone. The past 3 weeks that’s gone away.

Luckily if we make the wild card it’s a 3 game series this year.

I could be wrong but I believe the wild card teams will have best-of-3 series? I can't recall what they decided.

for the 3rd wild card team? Well, then I expect them to do what they did in 2014. This team can't beat the Jays. They might have a shot against the Rays.

The Post will probably be brutal on "Thor."
