A’s @ Angels 07/29/2021 Gamethread

Good news: Ramón Laureano can no longer torment the Angels from center field. Bad news: Starling Marte, defensive whiz, is now there.

A’s Lineup: Canha 7, Marte 8, Olson 3, Lowrie 4, Laureano 9, Moreland DH, Chapman 5, Murphy 2, Andrus 6. Montas 1.

Angels Lineup: Fletcher 4, Ohtani DH, Gosselin 3, Upton 7, Stassi 2, Marsh 8, Iglesias 6, Eaton 9, Mayfield 5. Bundy 1.

Add 30 to each side and that’s where the team will end up. Actually a great accomplishment considering.

I feel your sigh. This Angel team is not good. Healthy they may be different. As it is .500 is quite an accomplishment.

So this team cannot beat the A’s worst pitcher.

to be fair, Montas has potential to be an ace. A testament to how good Oaklands pitching is

Could not score a run against the A’s worst pitcher.

Montas is not their worst.

Irvin is worse. Maybe Manea as well…

Marsh represents the go ahead run now…he said optimistically.

Angels cannot hit legit pitching. This will be a sweep. Or something close like 1-3

A’s take three at least…

The difference between good teams and bad teams. Good teams win games even when they’re not swinging the bat great by not beating themselves with walks and errors.

Shohei came into this game hitting .286 since the all-star break. So that’s good. That day off helped!
