So it begins! Sixteen teams make the playoffs. Will the Angels be one of those?
Andrew Heaney takes the bump for the Angels. Anthony Rendon is unavailable.
The A’s counter with Frankie Montas, who was suspended last season for taking banned substances. Fun!
Of course, Rahul is in love with Oakland, to the extent that he has named his fantasy team “Matt Chapman Fan Club”, so don’t expect him to be cheering on the Angels this weekend. Boo the traitor Rahul!
I hate baseball
Of course, Patrick would love the new extra-inning rules.
It’s awesome for a short season … Shohei blew his chance.
True, and we really didn’t lose because of it.
Extras. Bases loaded. Sidearm. Gotta throw strikes, nothing wild. What is there to lose Joe?
Good to see some things haven’t changed. Our pen is still shit.
Spend a boatload on Rendon and supplement it with guys that other teams don’t want to throw critical innings. 3 castoffs pitching for us on Opening day with 16 pitchers on the staff in a game that was close the entire way. Arte is never going to win anything.
Exactly.
Does he want to? Winning will just cost him more money with less returns.
Also seeing Stripling go 7 tonight, 1 ER, 7Ks hurt. To think Arte nixed that trade for him and Joc still kills me.
That’s one one to end it! Sigh…
Plus ça change….
the more they remain the same.

PAIN
Did Heaney need to be pulled that early?
yeah i thought he was hanging stuff and they were onto him. after seeing the bullpen, maybe bad heaney is better anyway
Was kind of in and out at that time, just heard about the low pitch count from Gube’s.
So that happened.
Lawlz.
Staying up till 1am to see us lose in extras. It’s good to be back.
Wow. Good one Joe
Just laugh. Baseball is back! We live for this insanity!
Tomorrow!
Poor Hoby
Good night.
Classic Angels loss
There it is
Pretty tough situation for a rookie here.
And like that, one pitch grand slam.
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
Good Times
