Trout big time misplayed that ball. But again…another blown save. It’s been this way for a decade. It sucks to spend 2-3 hours watching your team winning then give it up. Should have been an easy sweep.

Watching the Angels is like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day. It’s like watching the same game every day. Angels are up 2….starter is fatigued but also hasn’t been great either…you have a guy up in the bullpen for the just in case. He gives up a double. Pitching coach comes out. They don’t take him out and use who they had in the bullpen(which they must have already felt he was done)…intentionally walk Harper….boom homer and down one. Feels like it’s happened 10 times since the trade deadline.

Maybe you should apply to be the GM since you are all knowing.  Or maybe you should follow some other team so you don't get so upset every day.  Then the rest of us can focus on constructive ideas.

Fuck it…I’ll do it. Putting all your chips in on rentals was always stupid. Whether you’re going for it or not. We didn’t learn from reading Segura fro 2 months of Greinke? Clevenger? Anyone who actually watches these games know that philosophically and even on the field this team is a below average team.  Hell we called up our first rounder 6 weeks after he was drafted! At least give up the farm for Verlander or the likes of him. At least he has multiple years on his deal. This shows me two things. One, Minasian sucks. Two, Moreno will never get out of the way and have an exclusive baseball decision man. The singing cowboy is rolling over in his grave. 6 games back at the deadline and you make a million moves just praying it all works…when the same manager, hitting and pitching coach….and that sorry ass excuse for a third base coach are still there sucking ass. And the training staff….which obviously sucks. It’s not a coincidence this happens every year.

Still waiting for your critique on how the 5-1 lead was blown.  Actually still waiting for any critique at all, other than hypothetical moves resulting in hypothetical outcomes.

Ok fine. Nevin got Soriano up in the pen the inning before because Anderson was complete dogshit. But somehow he got out of the inning. So you’d think the next inning it would be Soriano time. Nope. Back to Anderson to suck ass and get another runner in scoring position. Then you bring in Soriano. It’s just stupid shit like that. If the starter doesn’t have it. He doesn’t have it. So yes I’m theory it is about the pitchers. But at the same time it’s up to the manager to recognize that before it gets out of hand and make a change. Let’s not forget Anderson gave up 5 runs. Take his ass out and bullpen it the rest of the way. It’s really that simple.

nevin coached himself to the unemployment line tonight...no bunt in the bottom of the 9th and leaving in a closer for over 40 pitches what a f in idiot

Exactly. Had Grichuk attempt to bunt on the first pitch then not again. Just idiotic.

Would it have killed then to throw a change up close to the plate there? Shit everyone knew he was going to eventually get a hit on the fastball.

The Angels just flat ass don’t believe in throwing a chase pitch on 0-2. Fucking unreal.

You learn in little league to swing at anything close with 2 strikes. Fucking unbelievable.

Good job Thaiss. Don’t swing at the actual strike. Fml

Same old story against good teams. Get a golden opportunity. Can’t even put the bat on the ball. Then they come back and score. Sad times.

Stefanic!!!!!!

Don’t understand the pinch hitting there…but whatever. Rengifo with the weak pop up

Renfroe is a sorry excuse for a player right now. His approach is shit.

Typical Angels. It’s comical. Something with this group is just bad. Pitching coach, 3B coach, managerial decisions. Pitchers that pitch great elsewhere, suck balls here. It’s not a coincidence. The sooner they clean house the better.

A story as old as time. Angels have runners on second and third no outs and don’t score. Proceed to give up multiple runs the next inning. 
 

Story two..starter comes out with runners on and the reliever comes in and gives up a hit to score them. Hate the soft tossing reliever shit. Hate throwing a hanging pitch over the plate on 0-2.

Nevin should pull his ass right now.  That was idiotic 

Nero’s? Because it’s not his fault. Hasselbitch sent him.

Nevin is every bit the same incompetent in-game manager that Maddon was...

He’s worse. Maddon won in two different places.

If the game is managed even halfway decent this is an easy win. Just sad.

First he pitches Webb again when he has been complete dogshit. Then he puts our closer in for the 8th and a below average starter in for the 9th.

Hey!...we DO have Velasquez coming up this inning!!!

Yep! Too bad we don’t have the 3-3 first baseman who is just as fast as him.

7-3 and you just completely mismanage the game at a child like level. Oh here let’s throw the closer in the 8th and put A starter in for the 9th ageerhwhrhebe agafxhcjucbhajs

Nevin can go fuck himself. Seriously.

I really want everyone’s opinion here…why would Barria come in at this spot? I just can’t really believe the things Nevin does. Almost like he wants to get fired. I just hate watching this shit. It kills me.

Maybe don’t throw McCormick an outside fastball. But that’s just me.

Nevin really is a fucking dumbass. Cabbage is one of three players majors and minors with 20 homers and 20 steals but let’s take him out
