Hate to say it, but the Rays are playing good baseball right now. Hitting the ball the other way, hitting with RISP, good base running and drawing walks.
Its just fundamentals.
Just tuned in to the game...I see Shohei has performed yet another amazing feat to give us a early lead.
And then Canning coughed it right back up....that's gritty Griffin!!
He does have a laid back style, appearance and approach.
I've actually nicknamed him cheech...He looks like he just stepped out of the Cheech and Chong van in a cloud of smoke after hitting the bong.
But for anyone to insinuate that he's not trying is just stupid!
He had the same approach in D.C and it obviously has worked for him.
I just find it amazing that Stassi couldn't draw a walk to win the ballgame..
The two pitches after 3-1 looked like ball four to win the game...
And he just hacked away like he had no clue of the situation.
It's a microcosm
of how the Angels play baseball...and its inheritedly wrong.
You don't win baseball games without doing the fundamentals on a regular basis....not with our talent.
This game should of been won with a walk off BB by Stassi
He had a 3-1 count and didn't even make a attempt to be selective for a game winning RBI.
It's a theme!
UN f ING believable that Stassi swings thru TWO game winning balls..out of the zone!!
He should of least been taking all the way on 3-1.
This is bad baseball IQ and my biggest issue with this team
