Imposter Trout comes through!!

Coming through in the clutch is definitely un-Trout like.

Geez! They need a clutch hit!!

This feels like the kind of s**t that used to happen to the Angels on Sunday afternoons. I vastly enjoy being on this side of things.

The Angels still need outfielders next year

I agree, but I am just fine with the Angels doing whatever they possibly can to win this season. 

That being said, I don't think Adell is going to keep mashing like this and I don't think he will fetch much in return. But if he can...

Adell won’t have near the trade value needed to make it worth trading him at the deadline unless of course there’s an injury and he comes up and performs well. 

I suspect he will not, but if he keeps hitting a home run every game...

Keep him in Salt Lake until the trade deadline. If he is still producing at this level then trade out a 4th outfielder and put him on the roster.

If he's still producing at this level several months from now, trade him for the best reliever(s) available. 

Tonight's game was magical

No outs let’s see if $100 million plus worth of salaries can get the lead for the Halos.

2 runs in the first inning. 1 run in the next eight. Not ideal with this bullpen. 

Okay, that was cool 

All these moves to speed up the game and reviews still waste 5 minutes? Lame.

Where does 352 put Trout among active players?

4th behind Miggy, Neslon Cruz, and Stanton. 

I like when Trout swings first pitch. 

Really good to see this out of Reid after his control issues in the first inning, the blown interference call, and Urshela's error. This is a seriously good rotation if Detmers is taking the next step.

Let's hope the person receiving the throw doesn't have his leg collapse on him. 

On the other hand, that was the last time the Angels made the postseason, so...

It's like when the weird kid from The Burbs / white cholo from Colors / leader of the weird kids from Children of the Corn called Jack in the Box "Junk in the Box".

THAT's how you sum up his career? No mention of Hardbodies or Can't Buy Me Love?

If you looked up "Dodger fan" in a graphic dictionary, pretty sure this is the photo Merriam Webster would use.

Well, I can think of one other photo... 

There is nothing a sports writer at the Times could write that would upset me.

When I was kid, my dad would drive me to school and I would read aloud Jim Murray and Alan Malamud. I assumed all big city papers had writers like that. It's fun to look back on how naive you once were. 

Hot take: I like this kid. 

Comparing Tyler Anderson to Greg Maddux seems a bit of a stretch. 

Urshela has 5 hits in 8 at bats. 

I would rather watch him today than Rendon.

They should give Loup and Quijada an inning each today.

 

Let's not get carried away.

fuck off Ruiz

There are always a couple of A's I loathe intensely. I can already tell he is next in line. 

Rendon threw that like a.... well, never mind. 

8-pitch innings are much more fun when an Angel is the pitcher.
