I'm glad he got out but he threw a lot of pitches in the 2nd.

Thank you, Chuck, for the Jerk Off reaction

Watching Ted Lasso, Wanker sounds so much classier than Jerk Off. 

Sandy's change up is looking sharp tonight.

49 pitches for Matz through two.

He isn't fooling anyone too much either.  Some good takes from the Angel hitters today. 

Incoming Tepara meltdown with the lead or tie game.

Nevin’s BP management lost this one 

 

can’t score in droves every game. Anderson pitched solid and kept them in it 

Anderson was shaky early but he really settled down after the 4th inning on.  Finally had a good start and his change up was looking pretty good and was placed well. 

I really hate Nevin.  Changes roles for the other relievers based on feel and game flow, yet always puts Tepara and Loup in high leverage situations because why?

Wow, very surprised with this move but completely understandable with Fletcher's complete lack of production with the bat. 

Finally a clutch 2 out hit with the bases loaded from an Angel.

Did not expect this.  Looks like an overreaction from last night.  Hope this doesn't go badly for Neto like it did for Adell being brought up too soon.

I don't bet, but if I were to be forced, I would bet the under on this game, it's cold for a day game. 

I would've won money had I done this.  Although it did help that the Angels had bad luck with runners on base. 

Loup and Tepara didn't fuck it up.  It is against the Nationals, but a win is a win.

Why is Tepara out there with a lead?

I don't think he looked all that bad that inning. Lots of base hits strung together due to leaving the ball up and they found the holes. 

Like Tuesday's game, they're not making hard contact or hitting it over the OFer's heads.  Some of the pitches were bad though and up in the zone.  Better hitting teams might hit HRs with them.

Are you fucking kidding me lol

I'm always the one that points to small sample size variance when this type of stuff happens, but this is on Nevin.  Why the fuck does he keep putting Tepara and Loup in key situations, when they've shown last season and this season that they're unable to perform in key spots.  So sick of this shit.

Renfroe definitely finding his swing! Love it! 

Based on some of the loud outs he had the last few games, he was putting the bat to the ball well but was finding fielders.  Finally good to see the balls leaving the yard instead. 

4-2 to start the year on the road is always good. 

Feels nice to have a decent hitting catcher. 

Gotta love day games!

Hopefully Suarez keeps the win streak going.

Not getting excited yet. 3/4 games vs one of the worst teams in baseball. I want to see a few weeks of this before I get excited. 

Even then I'm still going to be leery.  Remember the Angels started 24-13 and 27-17 last season before it all fell apart. 

I'm reserving judgement until we play some MLB caliber teams.  

I'm surprised Rendon stayed in the game after he banged his knee.  It looked pretty bad watching it in regular speed.
