That's how it's done Cron.

Really?

Twins are 4-6 in their last 10

Trout NEEDS to step up here.

Lol, he's talking about Fister.

Did you watch the same games?, because that's not how either game played out.

Probable? Do you forget who the manager is? Pujols will not bat lower than 4th and I won't be surprised to still see him batting 3rd.

Fify

Maybe instead of a gay pride night, they should do an equality night where anyone and everyone is celebrated.

Chavez was big tonight. Well done.

No, Murphy is the same player minus the HRs. He started hitting better and got on base more often. LOL, at using "All-Star" for Blackmon. He had a better OPS at 26 and 28, but no All-Star? No, he is not the same player minus the HRs. He too started hitting better and got on base more often. I know these are extreme examples and rare, but remember Maybin is coming off a career year and I wasn't even expecting him to match that. So Maybin is a below .700 OPS player and Eppler and the fans should have know this because that's what he's always been? I don't recall having an opinion when the trade happen only having hope that he'll provide around .750 OPS. I do recall most being optimistic and happy with the trade.

And if you're looking for someone else who's done it for more than 1 year like Murphy, there's Justin Turner too. All those guys had big to huge jumps in production and all I was hoping for was a modest one for Maybin. You're probably right though Jeff, not realistic.

Daniel Murphy agrees, as does Justin Smoak, Charlie Blackmon, Logan Morrison. I got tired of looking, but I'm sure there are more.

Nothing to see here, move along.

I think myself and most Angels' fans were hoping he found something and turned a corner last year and give us at least .750 OPS. Coming off a career year to not even matching his meager average. Yeah, disappointing.

Maybin has been a huge disappointment.

This thread has really delivered.

I wonder if when Scioscia fills out the lineup, does he start with 2. Trout, 3. Pujols, then figures out the rest?

It would mean he pitched like an absolute dominate ace and the team most likely makes the playoffs with the hottest pitcher in the league. Everyone will be signing a different tune then and 13 mil will look like a bargain. Yeah, not happening.

Fuck that guy, nice play though.

Let's pad those stats Trout.

Bomb

Hopefully Maybin can get hot again.

I don't like using Bedrosian in a 6 run game.

How the hell did he mislead Valbuena? Valbuena decided to pocket the ball before the 3rd base ump called foul and if you re-watched it, Valbuena didn't even know it was called foul by him until he was arguing with the home plate ump. Didn't matter, because there was no play at 1st anyways.
