Gameday Thread (4/9/24): Rays @ Angels: Sandoval on the mound, no Neto, Schanuel dropped to 7th

[greginpsca]

Sandoval Sucks. Too many pitches. Too many walks. No composure.

How much longer is Sandoval going to be a pitch hog?

Recurring theme since the beginning of 2023

 

Doubt he makes it out of this inning.

Sandoval is such a disappointment 

Sometimes, he still seems to have the maturity and poise of a 21 year-old.

[CaliAngel]

*sigh*

[Stradling]

Sandoval needs to figure it out. Oh and Moniak is just not good. 

[jsnpritchett]

Lol, Moniak.  What a boneheaded play.

[Duren, Duren]

Embarrassing for a major leaguer. Another cheap run allowed by the defense. 

[m0nkey]

Remember when the board was trying to build a trade for Corbin Burnes around Sandoval

[tdawg87]

What exactly the fuck was that

Damn, we really should've done that!

i can't even think of words to describe how garbage that was

[John Taylor]

Sandoval to the first base ump "that was bullshit"

 

If I were the ump I'd be like "Like your pitching..."

[Duren, Duren]

Now the offense needs at least three runs and shutout pitching to take the lead. A tough task based on how this game is going.

Is he still bitching about the balk?  That was one of the more blatant balks you'll see.  He needs to STFU and pitch.

[jsnpritchett]

Just a reminder that the game tomorrow is a 1pm start time game.

Make sure you let the team know

They'll have RISP and less than two outs in multiple innings, score exactly 1 run, and then allow Tampa to pull away in the 7th...

I've seen this one before.

[Duren, Duren]

Is the Hicks experiment going to go on indefinitely? 

[CaliAngel]

lol Hacks trying to pull a ball on the outside of the plate.

Also that high strike call is killing us.

[bloodbrother]

Aaron Hicks stinks out loud

[tdawg87]

Aaron Dicks

[Duren, Duren]

Two equally ugly unearned runs. 

 

[bloodbrother]

At least that offsets the unearned run

The fact that your stupid humor has me laughing so hard really makes me question my level of maturity.

Or maybe it confirms what I already know.

Hard to tell.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Hicks is absolutely killing this team. He is not good against RHP, yet continues to get starts. I don't care that it's early in the season, this dude should never be starting against righties.
