The Angels play for the first time in September as the high-flying Padres come to town. They should be fun to watch.
Angels Lineup: Ohtani 10, Trout 8, Rendon 5, Upton 7, Pujols 3, Simmons 6, Adell 9, Bemboom 2, Rengifo 4. Teheran 1.
Padres Lineup: Grisham 8, Tatis Jr. 6, Machado 5, Hosmer 3, Moreland 10, Cronenworth 4, Profar 7, Castro 2, Allen 9. Lamet 1.
Adell clearly isn’t ready. He needs more minor league seasoning. I don’t think him getting dominated up here is going to help anything.
This 60 game season robbed us of the chance to lose 100 games for the first time ever
Arte so cheap he has a non stop string of interns run the team. Be a good one, become GM.
Arte so cheap he has Hulu with ads
Arte so cheap he asked Manfred if he could play with a 21 man roster.
He’s trying to get the minors eliminated so it makes sense
Angels lose and padres win. Win win?
Trouty and 2 great defensive plays. I really would like him to return.(Simmons)
Simmons still entertaining
Well we showed the R/S and Pirates that we are serious.
I consider this game a success. Trout, 2 for 4, HR, 2 RBIs.
Yup.
Have to keep up with the pirates
Also props to Noe for not walking off the mound. Putting up with a LF playing near the warning track and jogging towards a ball that landed 10 feet from him so that he could just field it on a hop and let 2 runs score.
Anyone that just saw that 24 year old swing at that pitch and think he has any possible path to major league success is an idiot, plain and simple. That was nowhere near the zone. Trade was a salary dump.
Now that just figured, now put in all the AA subs for an inning.
This was the best we could do for Noodles for real. Well this is throwing the towel in. Good as they deserve the lose.
way to make a good first impression! Maybe he was too nervous.
Team is tanking and they are being blatant now
Fuck yeah Barreto
That was the textbook definition of an Angels debut AB
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
And since this is the Padres offense, not the Angels one, they can score tomorrow too.
Upton needs work on his D.
My solution:
Both games of the doubleheader this Saturday AND Sunday’s game too.
Oh what, you say it is going to be 103 and 106 at game time on those days?
Well Justin enjoy the no-trade clause!
Funny stuff.
LOL, he will find his way to the shade from the light standards. Aka. Alex Johnson.
Partial hindsight here but giving a long term contract to a guy in his 30’s who hadn’t improved on his defense even though he plays the OF every day? How does someone not get better at something if they are really trying? He was never trying. He was trying at his golf game though, just like CJ Wilson was trying to be Sport Car Dealership owner.
No need tank. Pending a 20-game win streak, guaranteed a top 5-pick. Really sad.
