This Cisnero guy kind of stinks 

The whole front end of the bullpen stinks so far.

[TroutField]

Quit playing Cisnero and Hicks… 4 hits the entire game?! This offense is NOT good 

 

Adell and Rengifo are every day players. Send Schanuel down to figure this shit out in the meantime.

 

6-5 is better than I expected overall.

Ward gud at least

To add insult to it injury, there's that Spectrum/Dodgers boys in blue ad. 

Any Angel promotions on the Dodgers broadcast? 

I’m tired of the Hershiser Rotolo commercials on Ballys.    He never even pitched for the Halos.

just win the series 

[Angel Oracle]

Drury hasn’t done much so far either.

[Duren, Duren]

Frustrating game to watch. So many soft hit easy outs at bat. Ward with one exception.   Can't stop the run bleeding the other way.  

[HeavenlyHalos]

So much of this lineup is awful right now

That Rendon fly out to center killed me

*sigh*

It's a long season. And honestly things could be worse.

Well, at least hopefully this is the game Wash realizes he needs to play his best players. Margins are too small to be screwing around with Aaron Hicks like this.

Texas, Seattle and Houston lost.

Can we extend the "why are we playing Hicks over Adell discussion" to Cisnero, Strickland, Fulmer, and Wantz?

Once again bullpen is killing us.

[HeavenlyHalos]

lmao, these retread relievers sure are awful

[TroutField]

One day I’ll wake up and the Angels will be a good baseball team. 
 

maybe

Perry is still working on grasping the concept that young guys who stink might get better, but retreads and journeymen who stink will continue to stink.

He ripped that one! 

[AngelsLakersFan]

Has Schanuel got on base since they stole his streak?

Now we are locked in to Schanuel because sending him down would hurt his confidence
