Gameday Thread: Rangers @ Angels (5/7/23): Suarez on the mound, Rendon is back in, no Neto

[HeavenlyHalos]

just bailed him out of that inning. We entered today tied for third in GIDP. Definitely an issue

[T.G.]

If Ohtani really wanted to win, he would have homered.

[Kendo36]

Should have taken the lead that inning

[Dtwncbad]

Look at the shadows.  That wasn’t an easy play for Rendon looking directly into the sun.

Yall crazy.

Suarez has been an above average pitcher the last two years over 45 appearances. 

He was terrible early last year too.

 Him being hurt would make some sense, too.

But GameDay threads are the least rational of the irrational threads on here

I like Suarez, I know he's better than this but the ONE thing he's shown pretty much since the minors is that he can't win if his command is off.   The people talking about DFA'ing him are loopy but they definitely need to get him right.

[T.G.]

IP really like Suarez

at least 3 times as much as most people do.

[HeavenlyHalos]

I fucking hate this defense. Terrible

[T.G.]

Cue the Benny Hill music

[Angelsjunky]

Rendon and Thaiss...

[IheartLA]

comedy of errors

[daygloman]

Oh good grief!

[HeavenlyHalos]

absolutely pathetic

[greginpsca]

Off goes the tv. 

[Taylor]

When is the last time this team won a series against an above .500 team?

[T.G.]

All we need now is  an AO appearance 

[Angelsjunky]

I just lost any remaining faith in this game.

[HeavenlyHalos]

immediately give back those two runs. This has been a frustrating series. Walks have absolutely killed the pitching. The team defense has been atrocious

Ok:

 

[Angelsjunky]

Does Silseth have any movement on his fastball?

1987.

[IheartLA]

Silseth just throwing BP like Suarflop

[T.G.]

When Walsh is ready, they need to move him to the bullpen 

[Angelsjunky]

Prediction: The Angels lose this game 14-7. The Rangers pile on, and the game goes out of reach and then Trout hits a meaningless homer in the 9th.
