Team really has no choice but to let Adell play through it and pray he turns it around. Cutting Upton was a bit like burning the boats.

Adell reminds me a lot of Upton and not in a good way

I think Adell cares a LOT more than the Upton I saw as an Angel. But I only really saw the Upton after he had a lot of success, maybe he was hungry with the Dbacks.

It’s frustrating to watch him flail when there is all that talent there. Hopefully he gets in a groove soon

One home run. We couldn’t get one home run. One. They have like 10.

If we had only kept them to 4 we’d be winning! 🤓

Nope. They only brought their scrub pitchers in BECAUSE they had a huge lead.

Should have at least tag-up and made a break for home, as soon as the ball went to 2nd,you keep running towards home

Why would Marsh be looking at Nevin for a sign. Down by 9, 2nd and 3rd, no outs. Sigh.

Now is the time for someone on this team to blow a gasket and not wait until May or June. That is why I loved those players back in the early 2000’s. They were not afraid to speak their mind.

Yep and some shouting matches too. Some of these players look complacent and it is time to wake them up.

None of these players care. They’re all getting paid.

If we had only given up 2 we’d be in the lead!!!

I think this game could be a success if someone hit Altuve in the head, by accident of course.

Junk time runs better than no runs I guess.

The salt in the wound will be if Maddon leaves and has success with another team.

he was only successful when his gm gave him 25 players that all had talent. Just like Scioscia for the most part.

Not true. You obviously did not follow him during his years in Tampa Bay !!!
