  1. He is a ground ball pitcher. A lot of the hits he gives up now would not have been hits last year with the shift in effect and the ability to play an infielder on the outfield grass,increasing their range. That being said, his control has been crap and he misses his spots by too much to get hitters to chase.
  2. I thought he had more potential than Davidson. (coming from Atlanta)
  3. Trout being punished for endangering his health by stealing a base.
  4. Angels just acquired Eduardo Escobar for Cameron Crowe and Landon Marceaux
  5. I'd rather see the Angels lose 2-0, rather than 2-1. Of course, I'd prefer a win, but would really be pissed if Loup lost us the game.
  6. I'm guessing Webb, Devenski and Soriano not available today. Loup will probably be used to bridge to Estevez.
  7. KC trying to help the Angel's playoff chances by hitting Anderson with a batted ball.
  8. It feels like other teams gets 3x as many flare hits as the Angels
  9. Estevez warmed up Sunday in a save situation and was ready to pitch the 9th inning, but the Angels scored 2 runs in the bottom of the 8th and Estevez wasn't used. He then closed on Monday and Tuesday. He pitched Thursday and couldn't find the strike zone and was pulled after 3 batters. Nevin probably decided that the almost close, followed by 2 closes, 1 day off and a horrible performance the next game, that Estevez was overused and decided to give him 2 days off. Using Ingram with a 6 run lead is fine, but why would you let him pitch to a 4th batter, when he looked like crap? Why would you not let Webb start the 8th, since you only have 2 reliable pitchers left (Devenski and Soriano) and hope that both are on their game? Why would you not pull Soriano, who couldn't find the strike zone, when you pulled Estevez in the same situation 2 days ago? Also, why bring Ingram up at all, since they have gone away from soft tossers, and not bring up Wantz who can hit 96 and shown he can people out most of the time?
  10. Really like how Stefanic swung at that pitch to distract Perez and allow the SB.
  11. What happened to the good old days when many here could only bitch about Drury?
  12. Gubiza is an idiot. Of course, you have Velasquez bunt.
