Looks like we have our Rendon replacement...

Can't wait to watch him hit .120 and strike out at a 40% rate

Two straight blowouts in San Diego. Hope the Angels can avoid a sweep on Wednesday.'

Maybe they'll score 10 in the 9th today. ... Ummm. Nah.

There really no responsible excuse for leaving Ohtani in as DH now the game is out of reach. Does Nevin do the right thing and replace him. 

Well looks like they are

i'm already in mourning ! it gets easier when it's expected but every year the halos make a little push then start losing in packs and are hopes are up by early summer !

[cysomeawfulpitcher]

This team gets more and more remedial each year.  It's like Ohtani and Trout are Pin Pals and everyone else is Mr. Burns.

We've reached an all time low as a franchise when we are too scared to let our DH swing a bat due to potential injury.

We reached an all time low as a forum when they made you a moderator.

Not making the playoffs year in and year out with Trout and Ohtani on the team is pretty low. 

[TheLordofOuts]

We can win

I’ll let Chuck know that the Tyler has an issue with his decision decision making. 

[eligrba4ever]

8-4. Fletch is the tying run.

[TheLordofOuts]

They're gonna do it!

[Jason]

Pinch hitting Velasquez with Fletcher seems pointless. 

[Jason]

Kind of a BS call there

Chuckster is always open for constructive feedback.  He would be appalled to know someone he entrusted his site to, launches random personal attacks and comes across as a basic douche.

That wasn't a strike

[eligrba4ever]

Now Moniac is the tying run or the final out.

[TheLordofOuts]

Come on, MFers.  No buttercup 

[eligrba4ever]

8-5. Ward is the go-ahead run or the final out.
