REDemption

Haha. I prefer the good stuff, but if I'm just trying to get a nice buzz on before a game BL does the trick. I was looking to have a shot and a beer, but Zito's doesn't have liquor which is why TK wins my vote.

One of the last episodes I watched the contestants had to use durian. This is supposed to be one of the most foul tasting/smelling fruits on the planet. Andrew Zimmern(Bizarre Foods) can't even stomach it and I've literally seen him eat at a penis buffet on his show.

"The Angels' rotation is 1-5 -- Hanson has the lone win -- and none of the pitchers has an ERA under four."

From the Angels website. Yikes.

Checked out both Tk and Zito's before the game on Saturday. TK is probably the better bet. Zito's did have cheap ($6.50 for 34 oz Bud Light) beers though.

Doubtful that this was an international terrorist organization since no credit has been claimed for the attack as of minutes ago. It was most likely a home grown, anarchist crack pot. This stuff is becoming far too common.

I like him Third IF the first two in the line up can get on base. He's proven he can get on base, but those that come after him have left him high and dry so far. Get a couple RISP and have Trout work his Trout magic and bring them in for some much needed runs.

5-7 after Sunday. Our hitters will get on base so hard.. and stay there. They're into tantric scoring. It makes it that much better when they finally do.

Then we have people who have played and understand baseball and then we have people that shouldn't leave the kitchen.

 

If this were the Angels vs the Rangers, this thread would have a much different vibe.

I get it. Because they both have DH's ? Could that be a multi role position that encompasses fighting ? Similar to enforcers in hockey ? Good point.

Btw, MLB The Show doesn't count.

Look at that strategy. I think Greinke once took a women's self defense class

Sellers is ready to do some shiatsu on Ellis if his back cramps from containing the ferocious Quintin.

I hope Greinke drives an automatic.

This guy is a loser. James Franco cut off one arm with a dull pocket knife and this guy couldn't even manage that with a full Home Depot at his disposal.

This is my ideal lineup.

1. Trout

2. Hamilton

3. Ianetta

4. Callaspo

5. Kendrick

6. Bourjos

7. Aybar

8. Trumbo

9. Pujols

I based my logic for this lineup solely on the fact that you can spell a word from the first letter of the player's last names. Except Pujols. He didn't really fit.

Anyone watch the episodes this week?  The All Stars thing seems pretty cool.  I am looking forward to seeing some of the Chopped judges on there.

 

The episode last night was "viewers choice" where the viewers picked the basket ingredients.  They were totally brutal baskets.  At first it was cool but it got old fast.  All the chefs struggled a lot.

I've watched a few of the All Star ones with the judges competing. They bring it.

Viewer's choice was interesting. Hot dog bun sushi roll for dessert.... That guy was kind of a tool.

How about some Buttermilk instead ?

As frustrating as last night's loss was, it would've been way worse if we didn't get any hits AND our bullpen blew. I'll take one out of the two. Out hitting the A's and not capitalizing sucks, but at least there were hits to be had.

7 K's for CJ. Nice.

And always swinging at those down and away pitches is making Josh look like a Hamilclown. Get it together Josh.

I'm excited for Blanton to start tonight so everyone appreciates Jepsen a little more.

Went to Ironfire out in Temecula this weekend. They're a somewhat new brewery but they're picking up steam and can actually be found all over SD now. It was started by a couple guys who left Ballast Point to make their own beer. Really good stuff. My favorites were:

Synner Pale Ale (Also an Oaked version)

51/50 IPA

Vicious Dispostion RIS

Prickly Pear Pale Ale

4 K's !

3 K's for Vargas !

Mike Trout !

He's no Benny the Jet Rodriguez.

Nice. Callaspo on base with no outs.

Is that only 2 K's for Vargas ?

Ianetta should bat 4th.

Ianetta is a stud.
