Gameday Thread (4/7/24): Red Sox @ Angels: Silseth on the mound

[Taylor]

Apparently the Angels lead the majors in pitches seen per plate appearance, so far this season. That's a very pleasantly surprising stat.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Drury slumping to start the season  

[TheLordofOuts]

Drury must be taking batting lessons from Rendon

[Chuck]

Brandon Dreary.

Just a hunch it is Schanuel and Rendon leading the way in pitches seen?

Maybe? The TV guys just mentioned the team stat.

I think they said last night that O'Hoppe is leading the league.  Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I guess it switched slightly after yesterday.  Rendon is at 4.70/PA, O'Hoppe is 4.64.  They're both in the top 5 in the majors so far:

Nice to see 7 guys seeing more than league average.  I have always admired those teams that made the pitchers work.  While we are making the pitcher work, we aren’t really seeing it results in runs yet.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Two hits this inning but the double play killed us unless Rendon (edit: Neto, my bad) can come through

[HeavenlyHalos]

Crap. Never heard of David Hamilton.

[TheLordofOuts]

That wasn't in the script. Come on, man

[Taylor]

Get rid of the yellow line in RF.

I hadn't either, but just looked him up and he was once traded (along with Jackie Bradley, Jr.) for Hunter Renfroe.

[TheLordofOuts]

Excuse me, Mr. Silseth. Do you mind not giving up any more HRs. 

[HeavenlyHalos]

Crap, take two.

[Angels85]

[tdawg87]

Doing this shit again?

No.  Back-to-back-to-back.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Soooo the rotation is still a bit of an issue.

[Erstad Grit]
