03/06/2021 Angels vs. Rockies Spring Training Gamethread

The Angels take on the Rockies today. It seems Anthony Rendon is the only regular playing, and Joe Maddon comments on his spring thus far.

I dropped out awhile back, checked in to read comments and I see everybody dropped out!

the last comment I see before mine is SScott’s one about the 3rd inning.

Need a play-by-play announcer. This should be our next signing.

Terry Smith said a few weird things today I thought.

Is Mayers the prime Angel candidate for regression?

He probably won’t do what he did last year but he made some pretty real pitch changes (in a positive way). I buy him as a nice reliever but you never know with the volatility of the position.

Well his new found pitches ain’t working in the desert so far. Hopefully he doesn’t have the throwing arm flu. Any word on his velocity?

Meh. It’s one inning very early in the spring.

That sounds like an Angel Red Kool-Aid thirst quencher.

Raisel is going to be a serious addition to this bullpen

Most accomplished closer since Street. This was such a good trade.

I’m seriously daydreaming about the rotation now. Q, Ohtani both looking good makes us a viable club.
