Napoli'd

[mancini79]

That was a mammoth home run.

Anybody notice that 4 fans ran out to try to get that ball? I'm sure they were Boston drunks Napsackers.

Napoli was a good guy when here. He NEVER complained to the media about Scioscia sitting him, very fan friendly at least in my experiences meeting him. Productive player as well, could be streaky but at times carried the team. He also never wanted to leave the Angels, Scioscia ran him out of town. Napoli gets hate because he ended up on the Rangers, and now the Red Sox, two hated teams by our fanbase, but it worked out that way because of Scioscia and Reagins.

He wasn't fan friendly.

low cera, poor squatting technique,couldn't steal bases. got mixed never knowing from day to day if he was playing or where he would hit in the order.

can't understand an mlb player being resentful of being managed like that.

in a cynical way, i like it that he has come back to haunt sciosia who did his best to wreck the guys performance.

[Brent Maguire]

I loved Napoli when he was here but I can't like the guy now.

He looks like a complete douche.

meaningless HR = Napkakke

 

2 Ks with risp in a tight game =  Crickets

Razor Ramon sucks.

It's like the baseball version of Razor Ramon.

Bwahaha post of the month!

[DEATHRACERCHEVY]

Napoli has that fire in him. The fire the Angels lost 'till present as soon as they let him go. 

 

I never had a problem with him hitting .250 and catching here.

 

Thing is he pushes the envelope when playing the Angels out of pure spite. While being on strong teams like Tex or Bos. They feed his confidence like the Angels never could. 

 

 

I'm starting to see that a lot at Angel Stadium. Nothing at those fence boundaries explicitly states that going to grab a ball over there is against stadium policy, but those rails at the bottom of the CF greenery are obviously not there to save a human in case they fall. I'm sure those fans get ejected from the stadium, but if there's nothing there saying they will be ejected, who knows for sure. I wish Angels stadium was not so hard nosed, where they can run out there to get the ball, but I know how the park is run so I doubt the fans get away with it. They most likely get the ball taken away from them then are escorted from the park. 

 

I've always wondered why they don't allow people to run there to get it. Similar with the left field area with grass. I mean the Rangers don't do anything about that one ball hawker that goes for the ball everytime in that center field area do they? I would definitely go to more games knowing I had at least a fighting chance lol.

You left out blocking the umpire's view

What does the MLB rulebook say about the minimum number of buttons on a jersey that must be buttoned during a game?  There's gotta be some kinda rule--and whatever that rule is, if anyone is going to test it, from all indications, that person is going to be Mike Napoli.  

 

I see a Southern Comfort endorsement deal in Napoli's future. "Be comfortable"

It's like the baseball version of Razor Ramon.

"Oyeme, Chico!" "You talkin about the bad guy?" Flings toothpick at Angelswin.
