this UMP is horrid

Dude, it's 10-4.  It ain't the ump's fault.

[No Roles]

he was right there...he tracked it wrong ! yes it would have been a great play but still he had a chance

No

I feel like the only reason Santana hasn't retired yet is because he wants to keep playing the Angels every year. 

[jsnpritchett]

I hadn't even thought about it being all Joses tonight until now.

11 not including tonight which is tied for 5th most in the league. White Sox lead with 18.

Minasian is not impressing me so far this season.

Three guys have no business being on a MLB roster:  Jose Suparez, Jose Shitnero, and Aaron Hacks!

Yet, he refuses to release them?

Why?   It’s been a month now.

Because it’s only been a month. You answered your own question.

Somebody should tell Minasian not to sign anybody named Jose.

Subparez is since beginning of 2023.

Haven’t they at least seen enough of his folly on the mound?

Too bad Hacks can’t at least offer to give back his March/April salary like Bostock did offer in 1978.

Uhh Minasian, it goes back to beginning of 2023.    Isn’t that long enough?   He just doesn’t seem to have ever adjusted to the pitch clock, being one of the absolute slowest workers in MLB before 2023.

What is suddenly going to change for Subparez?

trout should never lead off against a pitcher that targets the upper half of the zone...

They’re just a bunch of ordinary Jose’s, Jason.

[Slegnaac]

They play Hendrix between the innings and the lyric I hear in my head is, I have only one burning desire,  DFA Jose Suarez.

Yep, absolutely sucked in 2024 before last night.

[jsnpritchett]

Trout is now 9 for his last 60.  I thought that was maybe the worst stretch of that length in his career, but he went through a 7 for 57 stretch just last year.  I don't even remember that.  I guess we just have to get used to extended bad stretches from him now.

Seems that several pitchers haven’t grown juevos yet?
