Four Gubi bros at the same game?  Scary.

They're crushing it now.

Team BA is up to .212

Maybe coach trashcan will be missed.   

And the Asterisks' rotation doesn't figure to be nearly as dominant in 2020.   Cole is gone,  37 y.o. Verlander is hurt, and 36 y.o. Grienke is entering his 17th season with 2600 IP.     

"So enjoy Mike Trout while he’s at the top of baseball because that day will pass and then never be again."

Wow, so....you mean....baseball players get old at some point?    Amazing journalism. 

"His nearly casual excellence might sometimes feel a bit boring since it seems so effortless, but you’ll miss it when it’s gone. Valar morghulis."

This is actually a good reminder.   We have the greatest player of our generation on the freakin' Angels.   We might have the greatest player in history on the Angels.    We'll be telling people about him for the rest of our lives.  We should never forget how lucky we are.    

I just went to check MLB.com to see how many pitches Andriese had after 2 innings....and I see that my feed on FSW is a full inning behind the box score on the website.    

Nice play Rendon!

I guess the good news re: Canning is that so many other guys are looking good in ST and I think Calloway is going to bring out the best in a lot of them.    And our offense figures to score a lot of runs.   So, if he comes back strong after the injections, that's just a bonus.  The team should be fine no matter when he gets back.

NIce!

Surgery on what though?  His UCL is not damaged.  Maybe exploratory surgery...I guess

I thought he did have UCL damage.

EDIT:  I see it is described as "chronic changes" to the UCL.   So, maybe...

I think most of us are there already, but it's best to assume the team will not get anything from Canning this season. If he can avoid surgery and provide some value later in the season, great. 

I guess I'm not in favor of the injections in most cases.....just drawing the whole process out longer.

Geez....Canning getting injections.     Probably delaying the inevitable surgery and increasing lost time.

I love Jose's comment about Simba's nice play...."that's not fair, man."

I'm optimistic that both Upton and Ohtani are going to start killing it at some point this season.

Upton is not a good fielder

He looked a little lost on that last one...but I don't think even Trouty would have had a play, right?    It was pretty high up and I think the chain link fence is a little further back than the wall.

Got all that one.

I've got tickets for the second home game  (vs. the Garbage Pail Kids, Trout 3X MVP bobblehead).....can't wait.

All those gifts and Suarez still holds them to 1 run.

Nice!

They're pranking Suarez...

Nice!

I wish they posted pitch velo in ST.   

Lol.  Suarez does a great job and it goes down as a double.

IMHO,  we should extend Simmons.   His defense is otherworldly and that is what matters most as a SS.    I also think his focus an awareness on every play makes him a kind of team leader.

Youtube and Sinclair want to save as many people as possible from hearing Gubi.

I actually like the vibe from Victor and Gubi.   But I know they're not for everyone. 

Welp, Youttube.TV won't be carrying Angels games permanently.

I had Hulu Live in the past and didn't like it as much as YTTV, but I just switched back....
