Any word why cabbage was pulled?  Because he hit a homer?

They are prejudice against great beards.

They wanted to LettUs watch Velasquez get some playing time.

Yes, Mike Scioscia made the call from Thousand Oaks.

For defensive purposes, but Velazquez only helps when the ball stays in the park.

[TheLordofOuts]

Loup has actually pitched well as of late.  Did he stop drinking Jobu's Rum?

Maybe a trade?

[Angelsjunky]

Ohtani has a six game walk streak. 7 in the last two games, 11 over the last six.

[Angelsjunky]

Cabbage is not being traded. More likely Nevin is just getting cute with defense. Hopefully we get that awkward moment next inning, after the Pirates score 4 against the bullpen and Velasquez comes up with a man on base and we get to watch him "bat."

Adell is on the IL.

Drury coming back use Rengifo or Cabbage in OF.

Or Rennifo makes couple nice plays at 3B

[TroutField]

Stupid mariners can’t win when we need them to. 1-0 jays.
I hate that organization 

[Angels 1961]

Wonder if Loup gets a major league contract or minor league deal next season.

I know that is why Marsh got traded.

[Revad]

Squid on the move, steals second with two out.

[TheLordofOuts]

Somehow Velazquez has 9 steals. I didn't know he got on base often enough to do that

[Angels 1961]

Moniak 2 more ks tonight not helping his BB to K rate. He did have 2 hits and a rbi.

He has more SB then hits this year.

[Wisconsin27]

Is it me, or does Thaiss get on base every f-ing game?  I've honestly wondered if he would be a leadoff candidate (I know!).

 

[Revad]

One more out please.

[Revad]

LTBU!

[daygloman]
