SMH no Marsh in the lineup. F'n Nevin.

[daygloman]

Go Halos!

[mmc]

Hope there’s not even 20,000 people at the stadium tonight 

[beatlesrule]

[Vlad27Trout27]

at this point they better just tank for the 1st Pick.

 

[CaliAngel]

Welp, I guess Adell is our new starting left fielder for the foreseeable future.

*sigh*

I'm not putting much hope into this lineup.

But, but, but….he’s a utility guy at best…maybe even a AAAA guy…no chance he regains his 19/20 form….

Nice to see him off to a good start since he came back, but I think we need to see more than 11 ABs before having a sense of who the "real" Fletcher is these days.  He hit .204/.235/.225 in 51 ABs during his rehab.

Ohtani has to be so done with this shit

No doubt….let’s see where he is in a month, 6 weeks…but I do think some wrote him off when he deserves a chance to show whether 19/20 was for real….

Sure, there's literally nothing to lose by running him out there every day for the rest of the season.  Completely agree with you there.

Terry and Mark having an interesting chat about the catching prospect from PHI, who apparently has immediately become the top prospect in the Angels farm system. Does that say more about the state of the farm system or how good the new guy is?

Probably some of both…..

Both

[Halo in Chicago]

Walsh can defend his position. If he could just hit with some consistency…

[Revad]

Couple of A’s throwing errors make it 2-0 Angels.  Also, a very nice diving play by Walsh.
