Nevin is a fucking choker.

Thanks for being complete dog shit Barria. 

Literally everyone saw this coming. Apparently Nevin completely forgot about the meltdowns against the A's and Marlins

Another Nevin loss..

Webb, Barria and Estevez all sucked ass tonight. You can blame Nevin for some of his calls but these fools didn’t get outs tonight like they are paid to do. 

[Angelsjunky]

Nevin is definitely gone, whether soon or in the offseason. If they blamed Maddon for the losing streak last year, why not blame Nevin for the July collapse? 

I don't actually think it is entirely or even mostly his fault, but the logic is the same.

[eligrba4ever]

Shohei closes the losing (?) margin to 1 run.

[TheLordofOuts]

Ohtani with a meaningless HR. Or will it be?

[daygloman]

I'm proud of Ohtani.

It most likely won't make a difference though!?!

But I hope it does!

Up 7-3 in top of the 8th, now down 9-7. The Angels season in a nut-shell.

Are pouring salt in wounds with those salted peamuts

[DMVol]

[AngelsFaninGA]

Again with this nonsense

[Angelsjunky]

I know you're being facetious, but it definitely isn't meaningless if you're only down 2 runs.

Minasian’s phone is lighting up right now with inquiries from other teams regarding Ohtani. 

Nevin and the entire coaching staff needs to be swept out. And, in anticipation,  Erstad is nowhere near the answer.

3 runs 

Yeah thanks...but given it's the 9th inning...2 runs for a tie might be all they can muster...

Sweet, we can now get an extra top 200 prospect while Nevin continues to throw games and the rest of the team eats their own diarrhea

Nothing will happen with Nevin and staff till end of year

[Angelsjunky]

The season comes down to Matt Thaiss.

[TheLordofOuts]

They are fighting.  Come on, baby

[Angelsjunky]

Oh well.

[TheLordofOuts]

<slumps>

[eligrba4ever]

DIM THAT BABY DOWN TONIGHT.

[Biergott]

Fire his ass, this is inexcusable

[Duren, Duren]

Just what the media wants. Ohtani adding to his status and the Angels losing  in a dramatic way to flame the trade rumors. Perfect story for them. Especially with the Yankees/New York media next.

[TheLordofOuts]

Alright. Start taking some calls, Perry.  

[Angelsjunky]

[daygloman]

Overly typical to end like that.

Stay tuned for alibi talk!
