The downward spiral started in early April. This is a "Donut team", no middle of the order and a lack pf quality arms on the mound. Take away the eight game winning streak and that is the team you will see the rest of the season.

This team is not a "Donut" team.  I never met a donut I did not like, this team, well not so much. 

Don't want to get banned.

At 27-38 we need to go 63-24 to hit 90 wins.

Ain't gonna happen.

No, our ban is on poor math calculations.  There are 162 games in a season, which means we can go 63-34 and still hit 90 wins.

Trout 2-5, 1 run

When you dump these veterans it presumes you have players in the system to replace them --- we do not.

What does he have to laugh about, the Angels are 3-0 against Detroit.

Tomorrow is an off day.

Oh, something new to discuss?

Getting rescued by Bourjos is like counting on your pet hamster to scare off a home intruder.

He'll have risen from the grave once he gets here to play the Angels.

only mike scioscia would use 8 pitchers and still lose the game.   cubs used only 4 lol

 

nice job on blowing out your bullpen for the boston series.

If that is all it takes to "blow out" a bullpen, then we are doomed for last place, LOL.

Good one, nicely done.

Trout 2-4, 1 double.

Pujols hit pretty damn good starting the middle of May last season 

Yes, he did extremely well.  The problem is that with the dollars come expectations, and for the largest, most vulgar contracts come expectations that can never be reached.

If the team reads this message board and makes decisions based on what we say, they are idiots...

Now that is well said.
