Gameday Thread (6/14/23): Angels @ Rangers

[aznhockeyguy]

Angels had Heaney on the ropes early, unfortunate they couldn't get a hit, would've been a different ball game.

With the Angels' luck, they'll find out that Neto injured himself on that incredible play where he banged into the scoreboard, but somehow didn't notice it until last night.

This was probably the easiest loss to swallow (gross).

We only used our shitty relievers, Texas' entire bullpen is basically drained, and Ohtani hit a massive dinger to remind Texas not to fuck around.

Holding my breathe on Neto

its always the most innocent things that turn out to be bad 

here’s to hoping it’s just a cramp.

Moore is not coming back next week. He’s probably not even getting on a mound until Tuesday. 

Bummer. I thought he may be back by late next week. 

I think the Angels should give Diaz or Rosenberg a promotion and cut Tucker Davidson, then let one of Kelvin Caceres or Kolton Ingram replace Herget.

I hope Minasian is looking at some trades for pitching help.

Maybe you missed Detmers pitching performance. 

And you give me shit about being negative? 

Admittedly you have been a positive beacon over the past week or so.  It has been noticed and appreciated.  
 

Well done sir.

Agreed.  Multiple situations did not go our way.   It took injuries, a gassed BP, and poor situational hitting for Texas to win (1).  
 

They are  not the better team rn and they know it.

I really thought he might be a good pick up but I have seen enough....he is a tease, lefthander with good stuff who can look impressive, but he's had the better part of a full season (after the trade last year and 2 1/2 months this year) to show some consistency and it just isn't there.

Detmers shoved vs a great lineup too.

yeah.....Iglesias was a salary dump unfortunately and the return wasn't with high expectations

My guess was him returning just after the ASB, which is 3+ weeks away.

Say he throws a bullpen 6/20, then another on 6/22 and 6/24. Then faces some hitters on 6/26. Maybe a rehab game on 6/29.

He could be back July 1.

Only thing is, Eovaldi averages 6 2/3 innings per start, and has gone 8 and even 9 innings.
