Q is in on the mound for the final game of the series. So fingers crossed. At least Schebler gets to play again. Ohtani is back in the lineup as predicted which means he is indeed healthy. Game is at 1 pm, in the middle of the week, at Angel Stadium. A real rarity.

Discuss.

I will say all momentum shifted when Trout ground out with bases loaded

I thought it was when CRod tries to paint the corner on a 3-2 count facing a non tying run instead of just saying try to hit this 97 mph heater. You absolutely can’t walk him there, rather see a homer than a walk.

The worst way to lose

Yep. At least if you are beat by a good team you can rationalize the loss; “you are supposed to lose to good teams” (at least sometimes).

But losing a series to the fucking Rangers? Especially after they punked you the previous year? You should be angry.

Pathetic.

can the Angels pitchers see Kennedy pitch and see he’s sure as heck now going to walk someone when their run isn’t even the tying run? Hard hit balls can be outs.

When can the Angels end the Adell needs more growth in the alt camp/minors because they don’t want him to get Super 2?

Yea and I watched him in Spring have much better AB’s and he’s only going to learn how to face major league pitching by facing major league pitching. Plus I don’t think any of the guys keeping his spot warm are going to do much of anything.

Marsh may have moved in front of Adell.

I thought Adell looked better than Marsh this spring.

This guy can’t throw strikes, why is he in there?

maybe Arte should have upped the payroll just a tad so the Angels weren’t scraping the bottom of the barrel to fill out their bullpen with guys getting meaningful innings.

Meanwhile our Starters have the worst ERA in the American League.

Well when you are in the majors you are expected to throw freaking strikes.

I don’t care how good the offense is. You walk 7 batters every game, you’re going to lose more than you win.
