Gameday Thread (8/16/22): Mariners @ Angels - Fletcher back in the lineup, Adell out

[eligrba]

Sierra, Rojas and Dugger in the 9th. That will be a lot of moving air.

This was great. Apparently Rizzo has been getting away with this for years. 

Hard to believe an ump called it against the Stankees. 

Yankees announcers are such abhorrent homers, I cannot stand listening to any of them. 

[tomsred]

Not looking too promising here, only bottom of the order left for Seattle to weather.

[Bronson]

 

This umpiring crew.

[Slegnaac]

Automated Ball / Strike calls cannot get here soon enough. 

[CaliAngel]

Way to keep it a 1 run game, Chavez. 

Jesus. 

Anyone miss Igesias yet? 

[eligrba]

Thanks Jesse for deciding the game. I can move on.

Fuck the Mariners.

[AngelsFaninGA]

Chavez is such trash. It's actually pretty impressive how every single reliever comes here and their ERA triples or quadruples within 2 or 3 appearances. 

[PattyD22]

I wish the Angels only played 8 inning games.  
 

They would still lose, but it would be much closer

Good night guys. 

[AngelsMetsWS]

Another awful 9th. 

[tomsred]

Bye, Bye Chavez.  Enjoy your retirement.

Chavez pitching poorly out of spite cause he got traded from a contender to a bad team

[gurn67]

I seen no reason why Trout is even bothering to come back this season.

[Slegnaac]

This is on the stupid home plate ump.  Chavez was out of the inning if the ump had call the pitch a strike like it should have been. 

[Angel Oracle]

DFA Chavez!!!!

Any further proof needed that AL >>>> NL?

Chavez actually had a low ERA with the Braves???

He wants to play.

[tomsred]

If anyone goes to the game tomorrow, please leave after 8 innings.  Depression is a bitch.

[Angel Oracle]

Is Onora known for being as bad with balls strikes as Bucknor?????

No kidding. Must be nice making 40 million this year to sit on the couch for the majority of the season. 

[Bronson]

Dark times indeed.

[AngelsMetsWS]

I’m thinking no more walk up songs allowed unless you can OPS .600. 

[CaliAngel]

Batters this inning hitting: .196, .116, .162 this should be gold. 

Embarrassing. 

[bloodbrother]

I really could have gone without a 2nd Jesse Chavez as an Angels stint. Not sure why they even kept him anyway since Tucker Davidson was clearly the main return in the Iglesias salary dump. Just give his spot to one of their young relievers in Triple-A and let them figure things out at the MLB level over these last couple months

If it's under that threshold, sad violin only. If it's under .400, the Benny Hill theme
