It’s a morning game to end the series in Baltimore. Jaime Barria gets the honors. Who will win this series? Can Ohtani stop striking out? Will the bullpen stop blowing it? All I know is that it is too early for a game. Discuss…
I wonder what possessed Joe to bring Petricka back. Sometimes I think “he did it on purpose to show Perry that there’s nothing to work with” but actually I doubt it. I think he was giving Petricka a second chance. And now I wonder if he’ll give him a third.
this game joins the lowlights list of 2021. Getting blasted by the worst team in baseball, getting shut down by an 0-8, high 7s ERA guy, and feeling hopeless about it.
This team is not going to win more than 5 games the rest of the way. The sad part about it is that no one in the front office or management seem to care.
That is being very generous. That would mean 12 more wins with mostly tough teams to play. Sad part is that we get some good young pitching and then they get injured. Same old story that never goes away.
D- for Perry. Bad trades, not enough trades, no improvement in health management, worse “run prevention” no analytics. We will be worse than last 4 years
This year doesn’t matter. Neither does next year. The only thing 2021 and 2022 are good for is giving MLB experience for the Angels’ young pitching to develop. This year Detmers/Sandoval/Suarez are making good steps to become weapons in 2023. Next year, all of those pitchers we just drafted will be getting MLB experience and learning. Everything needs to be focused on 2023. The Angels are going to be a beast in two years.
These Orioles were a very formidable opponent. Tip cap turn page.
8 pitch 9th to complete the mercy killing. sounds about right.
Matt V seems very cheerful that we are being punked so hard. I understand we shouldn’t blame the messenger but I am just sick of him.
At least he isn’t Daron Sutton? That’s all i got.
Is that enough?
😂
I was able to pop in quickly to see the score. Nevermind. Oh boy, we’re the get right team.
UNCLE
Elvis was part of the Junk from the Yankees…right?
Me thinks the wrong guy was named “junk” in that trade.
I think we should admit that we should be in the discussion for worst team in baseball.
Sure, but the discussion won’t net us the draft position that goes with being the worst
And that makes it even worse since it gives us even less of a chance of getting better.
The fork has been stuck. The fat lady is hoarse and the butter has cooled
Why do you build me up?
for the history books, because, no doubt students will peruse game threads, back to back errors and no additional comment from me.
This team is done. Long road trip, Covid, injuries. They needed a rain out today
Wantz is the only pitcher, who pitched today, with an ERA under 5 and a half.
Yeeesh.
still wondering about Fletch being out as we see a weak Wong at-bat.
White flag of surrender? Hopefully that’s all
A weak Wong?
Only an Ohtani walk. I’m out. Tomorrow is another day.
Why bother swinging?
on the other hand, Baltimore is terrible and we’re a blitz away from being back in the game.
Waiting patiently for the comeback

He should be gone after today as should many others calling themselves pitchers
Now it’s getting funny.
When was the last time we were 3 games under 500?
gonna go check…
In about 20 minutes.
And yeah 😩
June 26th, 36-40
Nice job thanks
Nice ole there Goose.

Not much fight in the dog today
Shohei had a bit of a growl, but he’s since tucked his tail and hid.
not gonna agree there. Homered (as you say), walked, hit a fly ball.
We’re good that way. Making rookies and high ERA guys look like Cy Young.
This team is not going to win more than 5 games the rest of the way. The sad part about it is that no one in the front office or management seem to care.
I’m guessing they’ll get to 75 wins or so.
