Angels @ Rangers 09/30/2021 Gamethread

The Angels say bye to Texas with Corn on the mound. Winning does nothing, losing also maybe does nothing. The important thing is to pad stats. Like 4 more Ohtani steals please.

This team is just an utter disaster. No other way to spin it. From the owner on down. There’s enough blame to go around. We need to see a season with our entire roster in tact. Minus the pitching staff of course.

They need to get rid of all the pitching coaches. Sign about 4 or 5 new relief pitchers. Get a couple of quality starters that can win 15 games a season. Get Trout and Rendon off of their asses. Sign a couple of strong utility hitters.

I hope next season things change. The year does end in a 2. That is usually good luck for this organization.

Let’s not forget about the minors and their Shitty treatment by the organization. Some of them should be part of the Angels future if they were developed correctly and maybe treated a bit more fairly.

Doesn’t MLB investigate things like this. For the fans sake the owner should never be allowed to mistreat the players.

Yeah, that too. The whole organization just stinks. There is no winning culture there. I figured Maddon would have brought that. I was wrong.

I really don’t fault Maddon for what happened this season. What could he do with the crap he was given? The blame relies on Moreno, the FO including Minasian.

Of all the money this game brings in and how super rich Arte is you would think that common decency would be high on his agenda just from being a good human being. Of course caring for others less fortunate was not something that contributed to his massive wealth.

Just a rule of thumb. Most rich people are assholes and could care less about others.

On a side note my parents have money and it does give me a bit of a perspective. They are all about themselves and acquiring more wealth. That is their life goals

When his value is low – nope. That window closed prior to the start of this season.

Yeah, he destroyed his value. He leads the team in hits, but he got most of those the first half.

Time to end this F’ing season. Total bullshit the last six season. For Trout and Rendon, get off your asses and go out there and earn your money next season.

The season was over when Trout got his boo-boo. The problem was that fans kept thinking “there’s a chance”.

I didn’t. I knew this season was over the middle of May. This organization hasn’t built a team to handle injuries for the last 15 years.

If trout is trying to convince Scherzer to come to Anaheim, he’s got a lot of ass kissing to do.

I lost a lot of respect for Trout this season. I am sorry but if it takes that long for a calf injury to heal he needs to retire.

Nothing quite like a sucker punch loss … except when the team is so bad you have no expectations.

I’m guessing we go down 1,2,3 in maybe a dozen pitches.

I was hoping Shohei was gonna hit 3 HRs this series. Instead we got 3 triples…is that right? When did he get the first two? I already have forgotten.

I said a month ago that shohei would not catch Glaus.

Can I change that to a half dozen pitches?

this reminds me, only slightly, of a game we lost 7-6 where Downing made a sensational catch to keep it at that score. Meaning, we’re not out of this inning yet and hopefully someone will step up and keep it 7-6.

What does it matter if they lose 7-6 or 70-6?

And I’d give my left nut for a player like Brian Downing.

If we weren’t tanking, I’d ask why Barney Fife was still pitching instead of AJ Ramos
