On a fastball down the middle? No way

Awful looking lineup.
 

Upton's weaknesses: Fastballs down the middle and balls hit to LF
Marte's weaknesses: he f***ing sucks

Two expiring contracts for 3 promising arms. Not bad.

If the Maldonado trade and the Kinsler trade happened today no one would feel like we did nothing.  

Get Boston on the phone

Nagy isn't here to read this.  He's never been here to read this.  He's never coming here to read this.

Upton?    Oh well, still 3-4 today including one hit with RISP, baby steps with RISP spots

I would throw Upton a fastball down the middle every time. He'll swing and miss at the first two and watch the third for strike three

Sandoval kinda sounds like a Hector Santiago type.
$250k is a good lump sum too. Good trade! Let's see who's next 

Upton and Fletcher I think are contributors as well.  If post “injury” Kole is real, he isn’t a problem either.  The problem is 1st, 3rd (or 2nd) and catcher.  

Justin uptons weakness: 90 mph fastballs down the middle. Seriously. 

That was a fun game to watch! Despite all the injuries and underperforming players and everything, I’ve always thought  we have a chance to get hot and compete this year. If I recall, perhaps it was 2012? but Oakland was down some 9 games at least at the all star break but came back to either win the division or come very close to it. Some trades and some promotions can infuse new life into the team as well. 
Winning these series against SEA/LA we’re a great start to it get going hopefully

There's potential in this lineup to get hot and start a winning streak. Especially if we can get Ohtani back soon, we can get right back in it with some unexpected wins in Boston and maybe a sweep of Seattle

How many bases have we given up this year by not throwing it to the cutoff man? Or from poor judgment overall? Seems like a lot of idiotic decisions have been made for such a talented defense.
 
Baserunning on offense too.

come on Lamb, we can still come back

Ha! My brother does this dance every time we're at a family function and he sees a salad. For some odd reason, his wife hates it.
It's probably because she's white.

Hey everyone, been reading these boards for years. Finally decided to join. 
Grew up in Corona/Newport Beach, lived in Fullerton for school and Anaheim for quite a few years (absolutely awful place to live, I absolutely understand now why Arte calls the team LA) and now live in Pasadena for work. I am an artist for the The Simpsons animation crew and have been on the crew since I interned in 2014. 
Die hard Angels fan since 1999, so since I was 7 haha. My dad started getting season tickets in 2005 and we worked our way from underneath the terrace near left field, to solid seats near first base side and now right behind the diamond club section. My dad moved to Nashville so I officially am the keeper of the seats! My favorite player for all time has got to be Chone Figgins, loved that guy and what he could do. Although, it’s hard not to love Trout. 
Look forward to discussing the team with everyone. 

The stupid drums didn’t bug me until right now haha ugh. Stupid bullpen

Albert's clutchness has forced 2 errors tonight
