I’d love to see Adell drive make contact with a ball here

Eppler is intentionally tanking our team because he knows he won’t be back next season.

This makes no sense unless Eppler either:

A.) Trades everyone to the A's and then hopes they hire him.

B.) Never wants to work in the MLB again.

Nice! Excited to see the return.

RIP Tommy Boy

Hey that might have been Upton's best swing all season.

I just wish Politics would stay out of Sports (I am keenly aware of the fact politics and sports have always had some sort of intertwining)

I get the sense, especially with social justice warriors everywhere, that it is becoming taboo in the public sphere to be "happy" or enjoy something when something else bad (that is logistically unrelated) happens. I feel like guilt is being forced upon me from everywhere and that I am no longer being allowed enjoy anything, and no I don't mean "White guilt" (I'm Mexican) I mean being made to feel guilty for being alive somedays.

Also for the record I'm a snowflake liberal, but this is a subject that I agree with my Conservative friends on. The Twitter mob is not judge, jury and executioner. We have judges, juries (and even executioners in some states).

Just take your millions of dollars and play the damn game. If you want to protest with everyone else, totally cool, do it off the clock.

Fletcher is legitimately our MVP so far this season.

No pinch runner for Pujols?

The eighth begins with an Angels runner on second base waiting to be stranded 3 outs later,.

This made me both laugh and then immediately curl up in a ball and cry

Yes @VictorRojas calling out how bad the defense has been this season. Thank you for saying what we're all thinking.

another day....another being down by 5 runs early

What the actual fuck was that worse Bartolo?

Looks like a 4:05pm (PDT) start for game 2 currently.

Trout has a slump every season and every season threads are made with tales of doom and gloom.

Tomorrow's game was postponed this morning by MLB.

My NL team has always been the Cubs, mainly because Cubs games would be on WGN during the day when I was a kid, and it was a treat on sick days. 

It's pretty obvious too if anybody remembers the thread I created about visiting Wrigley Field how much I love the Cubs, but they will always be a distant second to the Angels.

I take that Back, Mayers has been a hidden gem....

I blame you

When the Astros Shame tour account wont even post the gif.....

"Bundy is very arguably one of the top arms on the market, and that’s particularly true given his control beyond 2020. Teams are expected to be stingier than ever in terms of what they’re willing to part with for pure rental players in 2020, as they’d only be acquiring one month of said player for a crack at an expanded postseason that some view as something of a novelty."

Yeah I've been most surprised about how terrible Adell's defense has been. Even the greenest of players tend to play pretty good D. Adell is not ready for prime time.
