Rendon hates the media, so of course fans who want hurt feelings will take issue with it. It’s dumb. It’s like trying to find value in post game interviews. 

What if he hated In n Out tho?

Nm, nobody hates that.

I'll be at the game using reverse jinx technology

Can we use the Ohtani rule and have Silseth hit for Escobar?

Blue Jays are already up 11-1 in the 5th against the Red Sox, so sure doesn't look like the Angels will gain any ground, regardless of what happens today.

I think at this point the Angels and us fans should just focus on winning one at a time and hope that after a good run we can once again scoreboard watch for the Wild Card standings.

They must win today’s game and start some type of hot streak from today on. 

Such a disappointing turn of events since after the Detroit series.

Jason doesn’t like that approach.

This.  Control what we can:  our W-L record.

I wonder if Arte will even get $1,000,000 per RBI from Rendon. When Ohtani leaves, their only choice may be to make him a full time DH. He'll still somehow manage to injure himself at the plate, or on the basepaths, but maybe they can get some return on what is looking like the worst contract in team history at this point. Yes, even worse than Hamilton. He hit more home runs and drove in more runs in two seasons than Rendon has in almost 4 now.

Adell will be DH, just saying

That bomb came quickly. In the hole already.

[daygloman]

Off to an excellent start once again.

SMFH.

In the pregame interview, Nevin said one of the things Silseth went down to the minors to work on was getting ahead of the count. He applied that to today’s game by throwing a first pitch strike to the first batter. Yikes.

You have to eat the fries in the car on the way home.

It's Law.

That strike 3 to Rengifo tho...

[eligrba4ever]

Miller has given up a bunch of longballs recently,

Ohtani singles.

[SoCalDucksFan]

Renfroe looking in his glove and not seeing the ball there, pretty much sums up the Angels season.

How terrible do the umps have to be before the computers take over? So many calls this year have been beyond awful. 

[mr.angel]

Mooooose!

[Amazing Larry]

The moose is loose. 

[daygloman]

Wow!

They scored!

Go Halos!
