Yes, and our current winning percentage of .494 is well above the .433 mark we had last season. So, overall, I guess you can say things are looking up!
When Vin Scully knew everything about everything it was cool When Matt V. knows everything about everything, it just makes him seem like a know it all.

amazing! 72 wins equals 2019. We’d have to lose the last 16 to be as bad as that team and that won’t happen.
Without Trout
yep. AA and AAA players. Plus Ohtani and Walsh.
and we do have a real closer this year.
That’s the big difference
trade that fatty. 😛
Even if Mike was in the lineup, there is no way with the second from last pitching staff, we do crapola. Maybe a wild card loss.
Isn’t it precisely in a 1-game wild card scenario where a star player like Trout can make a difference?
I’m just not feeling the achievement. Perry got paid for results, he failed. Angels failed, again.
9-7 gets the team to .500 which would be a significant development.

safe to call it now: BALLGAME
I see Joe let Cobb exceed 60 pitches. He must have been really tired eh?
Yes, Joe is tired.
from Southside Sox (that’s the White Sox SB Nation thing)
“Wright almost hit OhtaniOh and then does”
why would they want to do that? What’s the point?
what’s LaRussa’s problem? Drunk again?
He suffers from I’M-AN-ASS-ITIS
TLR is a jackass
the White Sox running out a string of relievers, all with better ERAs than anyone we have other than Raisel
That’s why they are making the playoffs and we aren’t.
Rengifo playing like a man who doesn’t want to go home. He’s going to single handedly carry us through October to avoid his wife and the law.
Come on, Gump!

Matty V comes off as a nerd who thinks he can gain your love & respect by demonstrating to you how much he knows.
Rich Waltz hive!
Has Rich come back at all? I haven’t seen many broadcasts lately – and the ones I’ve seen have Pat or Matt.
my guess after the 8th, 9-6.
whoopee! Glad to be wrong
as listed yesterday, Herget has allowed 5 of 6 inherited runners to score
So you say there’s a chance!
good job by Herget as he only allowed 2 of the 3 to score. That lowers his percentage. Was 5 of 6 (83.3%), now 7 of 9 (77.8%)

We let Junior load the bases and then take him out? Just a set up to keep our IRS numbers up (do we lead the category yet?). Cishek?
Here we go.
it’s on Joe now
oh good, a second inning for Guerra. 9-5 is my guess
Deep sigh
Umm. I was relieved we got out the last inning – and Joe says ‘you know what, this isn’t a save situation (yet), go on back out their Junior’.
Can they just DFA Guerra?! Why do they keep this guy?
Having him in instantly reminds me why we’ve sucked all year.
Absolutely! How can this guy have a job?
Beats the hell out of me.
Guerra is bad enough that this game could tighten
thus my reply to Jack Frost earlier
Guerra is bad enough that this game
couldwill tightenI was skeptical when we took out Cobb after only 66 pitches (but he is just stretching back out, I suppose).
Yep. I think Maddon is trying to protect the arms and shoulders of his pitchers.
Considering our injury woes it is not a bad idea, really. And despite this people give Maddon shit all the time for pulling pitchers too early.
I see Shohei won’t pitch again.

TJS on left arm scheduled for October 5.
😂
The mlb.com scoreboard is broken. Says angels have some non-zero number of runs
The 9 is actually a zero.
well now, that I believe
