Gameday Thread: (9/30/23) A's @ Angels: Wantz starting a bullpen game

[Blarg]

See what I mean, a B horror film. A dropped ball balk with bases loaded.

Corman, the king of the B films pairs well with the B teams playing in Anaheim tonight. Kind of a horror classic night. 

There was actually an Angels crossover during the marathon: Clint Howard wears an Angels cap all throughout Grand Theft Auto, which was one of the four movies shown.

Like most nights, an Angels lead all-too-often evaporates fairly quickly .

But yeah.

So was Susan

Many growing pains with young players. Give them a couple of years.

[fan_since79]

Game.

[daygloman]

Good GRIEF!

[Blarg]

I don't think anyone doubted Soriano could clear the bases and not attach a single run to his era. 

[fan_since79]

The inconsistent bullpen strikes again, on Fan Appreciation Night.

[eligrba4ever]

Is the Norfolk Tides-OKC Dodgers title playoff a predictor of a World Series Baltimore-LAD match?

Ohhhh. And the A's now lead the Halos 6-3. Little to say that hasn't already been shouted many times.

[fan_since79]

Mariners ELIMINATED!!!

[Angel Oracle]

Good job Soriano snd Joyce!!!

A 49-111 team!!!!!

Get some REAL experienced relievers in here next season!!!!

Like maybe FOUR of them??? 

[Angel Oracle]

If they lose the season series tomorrow, make EVERY player run TWO HUNDRED laps around Angel Stadium in front of the fans still there!!!!!!

That team is 49-111 for a reason!!!!

F U Arte Moreno the dinosaur!

Didn't Perry bring in more that 4 such pitchers last offseason? Relievers are dicey bets at all times. Consistency is not their middle name.

[Angels 1961]

Arte should offer free parking for Sunday's game. 

[Biergott]

Left the game early in the 8th  maybe they’ll come back now

I never leave early but that was a fugly way to go out.

We are going get to 90 losses after all, aren’t we?

At least I got to see Nolan extend his streak and watch Ohtani walk off the field for what might be the last time…..

 

oh and I got the Photanishopped Team Photo

[daygloman]

A Travesty.

Other teams seem to put bullpens together.

How long has it been for the Halos????

[eligrba4ever]

Well, just another Halos (deleted deleted deleted) game.

Game 162 starts about noon Sunday. Still going for the 90th Halos loss of 2023.

Positives from tonight: O'Hoppe. Mariners out of the postseason.

[fan_since79]

Angels in August, 8-19

Angels in September, 8-19

Consistency!

I'm drawing a blank. All I can think of are Percival, Shields, K-Rod and the like.

Consistent pitching brings consistent results.

[Angel Oracle]

The pitcher coaching needs to be revisited this off-season!

Doug White memories being drudged up 

I do wonder if Minasian’s weakness may be knowing pitching.

Has he acquired ANY pitching that has worked out for more than a year?????

Maybe that clouds his future here?

Pitching is EXTREMELY important!

I’m with the fans at the game tonight!

Sell the team!
Sell the team!
Sell the team!
Sell the team!
Sell the team!

Does the recluse even show up anymore?   What a phony!

I’m sick and I’m tired!

I’m sick and I’m tired!

I’m sick and I’m tired!

Of every season being a losing one!

The losing seasons better end in 2024!!!

Is Arte Moreno that Major League movie Indians owner in disguise???
