Puig again

[Halos of Anaheim]

Is this AngelsWin.com or DodgersWin.com? Come the hell on man, do you guys think Dodger fans were making threads like this about Trout last year when he was called up and had an amazing start?

[fan_since79]

I'm no Dodger fan, but the forum is open to all baseball topics.

Los Angeles Angels Topics > Los Angeles Angels Daily section.

Read the top of the forum. It seems like the people that have the biggest problem with him, post the most on this thread.

There's 1 thread about Puig and there's no MLB sub forum here, so quit whining. 

 

 

 

And yes I'm sure there were plenty of Mike Trout threads on other forums last year, I saw some on Sons of Sam Horn and BBTIA. Its called being a baseball fan.

[Chuck]

This is the Angels & MLB forum all in one. Obviously Angels topics will take up much of the space and conversation. 

 

Chill.

1-6 for Yasiel Francoeur

[WallyWorld]

1-7 now.

HanRam just hit a go ahead solo shot in top of 14th. He's been unreal.

If Puig is so obviously god-like how come there are 6 hitters ranked higher in fantasy baseball in the time hes been up? Hanley Ramirez being one of them.

Because hes not god like. He has no awareness on the field and plays recklessly. Hes talented, but he cant run the bases, he takes bad routes, and he swings at everything.

What he does have on his side is that he does everything well that people who dont follow baseball closely think makes up a great player. He throws well, he runs fast, and he has power.

If you actually read the thread you'd notice we're not only talking about some of his good performances, but also about his poor performances (and rather poor attitude) as well. 

 

People around the league are talking about this guy, for whatever reason. No reason we can't either.

Han Ram has been getting 0 attention because of Puig but he has been just as good if not better better than Puig in the same number of games: 

Player Team       Pos G AB R     H   2B 3B HR RBI BB SO SB CS AVGâ–¼ OBP SLG OPS

Ramirez, H  LAD SS 35 115 26 47 10   2    8    24   9   14  4    0 .409    .452  .739 1.192

Puig, Y        LAD RF 35 142 27 56  8   1    8     19   7   35 5    3 .394     .428 .634  1.061

Freeman beats Puig for All-Star berth

[tdawg87]

lol

[bloodbrother]

He'll probably be an injury replacement for somebody in the end

Sounds like an Angel

[seenoevil]

Glad he didn't make the all star team. Heard he's an asshole

Yasiel Slump.

My phone autocorrects Yasiel to Yadier. I had no idea iPhones were so worldly.

[fan_since79]

Slump or no slump, Dodgers keep rolling along. Hanley Ramirez is the real story for this offense.

Dodger Stadium security is upset with him for using his interpreter to try and pick up women.

Puig will soon learn he doesn't need an interpreter. Just need to flash some cash.

Vlad with the Expos?   Only without the SBs count?

[Angel Oracle]

I knew HanRam had been real good for the Fish in the past.   

But he was never THIS good for a 6 weeks period, and still hitting over .400.

 

Must be nice to acquire someone else's superstar, and see them actually hit like one!  

I sure don't know that feeling, ever since Vlad did so for us.

Pujols and Hamilton, you know what you have to do for the rest of the season.

Seriously. Hanley Ramirez has played in the same number of games as Puig this year and has an OPS 100 points higher than him, yet I haven't heard anything about him.

[Scott34]

I'm a big fan of Puig.
