What on earth could they possibly be saying to Cahill that would be useful? "Hey man, you still suck, right?" "Yup. Consider the bed sharted. Can keep it up if you'd like." "That'd be great, k thx byeee."

Records as in vinyl?

Yes. And that and the TV are hooked up to a very nice sound system, which makes the drums/horn even worse.

I go make lunch and the game is tied? 

You guys suck. 

If by you guys you mean Trevor Cahill, then yeah.

Are you at the game?

Nope, I can't imagine how much more annoying it would be live, though.

Sound has been turned way down and I actually offered to put one of her records on. Might offer again.

I only mentioned the annoying drums and horn. 

It is difficult enough for the fiancée to tolerate baseball. Based on my interpretation of her incredibly subtle comments, thanks to that horn I'm either going to not get to finish watching this game or alternatively find a new fiancée.

Any reasonable path to making sure that Cahill gets stuck in customs on the way back home for a short period of time, say ~5 months? 

I agree.

No thank you, @jordan & @UndertheHalo

What's funny is we were social media for the Angels well before social media existed. I explored a bit on Twitter and Facebook to see what all the hub bub was about 7 or so years ago and did both, in addition to posting here. It was exhausting, unmoderated and a stage for keyboard warriors and trolls to have a field day.

That said, I rarely post on Facebook about the Angels anymore unless it's big news and have unfollowed all of those Halo Nation type groups  -- I mostly stay on there to keep in touch with old friends and family --  and I typically only use Twitter now to promote our website and content ....and of course, the occasional Ausmus or Bour rant. lol

You just have to filter through so much garbage, others personal drama and shit you don't want to read about on Twitter/Facebook, where at least on here you can come on and get just what you're looking for .... Angels baseball and more... should you want to discuss other topics as well. 

I'm super confused how I spent 3-4 years thinking HH was the best Angels blog.

In my defense:

Only 72? 

I think it has to be for immediately ready top prospects or high ceiling guys that just made it to the show. How often do teams trade those types of players away. What does it say to Trout if it is for top notch A ball players that are 3 years from the majors? "Thanks for signing that contract! We're punting the next 2-3 years of your prime, hope you don't mind!" 

Terrible optics, even if smart on paper. 

He's going to come back just in time for La Stella to return as La Stella of the last 5 years and not the dude who somehow has 7 HR in a month after 10 in 5 seasons and who has 16 hits, of which 7 are HR, right? 

If so, damnit. 

I think the only semi comforting thing is that he was going to be out regardless at the end, no way that gets held up even if he decides not to take a stroll after getting called safe at 2nd.

Angels just swept the team that previously had the best record in the majors. Epplemaus > Dipscioa.

I sell them for $20 each

Your AA meeting would probably not be useful for those in need of help, unless that need was of more beer, but I'm in.  Will PM you next time I plan on going in case you need a giant AA (small font: Angels Anonymous) banner.

Buying a beer is never weird 

I was unsuccessful at finding anything on Google searching for "beer sold at an AA meeting."

Just now, Lou said:

I have no idea what this means

Same. 

Edit: how the hell did I type "same" instead of "I agree?" Neither helps make my point, but the latter is clearly superior here.

IDK, will it though? I mean, a week ago everyone was pissed at Ron "I can do whatever I want" Kulpa, but as far as I can tell, there hasn't even been an acknowledgement of how horrible he was.

Fair. Not saying they'll DO anything about it, but they'll be at least forced to take a look at it now (from my understanding, at least). 

Just now, Lou said:

They do?

Only if they're in the strike zone. Which they aren't at 13.50 each, but trying telling it to "BLUE, YOU SUCK BLUE!"

Lucroy thinking it was him getting tossed as Smith clearly calls Cuzzi a Scuzzi Taint has to be made a gif. So awesome. 

Just now, UndertheHalo said:

Jesus come on Smith....now Lucroy doesn’t get the whole night off.  Fuc*king dumb. 

Totally get this point of view, but it's been bad enough it needed to get the attention of the league and will now.

Ward's glove 

Needs the best defensive cast around him if he's gonna be iron man with the bat but his glove continues to get panned like this.

Overtime! 

That dude with a $1500 preseason bet on Texas Tech to win it all on 250-1 odds must be shitting himself right now.

Yellich looks like that dude on SNL, Pete Davidson?  

Whoa, yes. 

Until he robs 5 HRs in 4 games I'm not impressed.
