Game 6

at this point the main thing for ohtani should be staying health. 
We have to remember, that Ohtani didn't have any rehab assignments in a control environment, nor a regular spring training. 
Richard's struggled last year, had an ERA over 8.
Heaney and Skagss struggled as well.
It's going to take time. 

I don’t normally like Gubi’s announcing, however his analysis of Ohtani’s struggles is spot on. 

Oh come on you piece of shit umpire!

GO ANGELS!!!
GO BECKHAM TROUT!!! 
GO SHOHEI!!!

Me

Man up!

Whiskey takes the edge off the pain.

Lol at gubbie and Vic defending Fletch in RF, on a ball where basically any Sunday Softball RF makes.. not to mention the play by Renfrigo at 2B

Yea fuck off with this take. 

Spending money on guys like Pujols, Wells, and Hamilton is 100% a direct correlation with us being the laughing stock of the league. 

Arte hired Eppler. He extended Scioscia. Arte pushed for Hamilton and Pujols and Wells etc. He won't tank even when all logic says that's the correct move. He won't even fire sell one year. Arte is the one to blame. The Angels problems start at the top. 

Has Eppler really rebuilt our farmsystem? I hear this a lot, but have yet to see it come to fruition. Our farmsystem has been ranked near the bottom for his entire tenure.

And yet he’s better at his profession than most of us will ever be.  

He isn't wrong about Angels fans at the stadium but I have no idea why he feels the need to take shots like that.  I would imagine that Eppler and Maddon will have a chat with him.  IMO the team should suspend him for a couple games.

Remember the narrative that the Angels only won in 2002 because of Joe Maddon?  It was always followed with, “he taught Scioscia everything he knew”. 

Of course you don’t fire him, but man that was a bad call.  
 
As far as the bullpen goes, this is going to be a tough year for any team to figure that shit out.  

I'm a Rengifo fan, I think he is easily a major league starter and he should be in the lineup.

He led the majors in RBI batting 3rd last year. 124 of his 126 RBI from that spot in the lineup. 

Damn, now I want IHOP

You have a reading comprehension problem.  Let me clear things up with bullet points....
I hate what Joe Kelly did I think getting upset over "Nice swing, bitch" is pathetic. I don't think that's why they were upset.  I like what MLB did in response

8 games is a lot.  I thought it'd be less.
There's no place in the game for crap like that.  Two wrongs.... or forty two wrongs in the case of the Astros.... don't cancel each other out.   MLB warned teams and players they'd face steep consequences. Good to see them follow through.  There are probably a couple pitchers out there that were on the fence about doing something similar.  This is a big deterrent. I love it.

Way too harsh. I wouldn't have been surprised if he didn't get suspended at all. Dude didn't even hit anyone. This is Manfreds ruling right? Pathetic. He needs to resign. He is a terrible commissioner.

The more I read the more what I think IP meant was 3 players testing positive is the definition of an outbreak and the team should not have played.
