LA Angels Tuesday News Crash:

Leg amputation will be scheduled shortly.

Just get back in time for the playoff run

When reporters asked Frostad if he meant he doesn’t anticipate the surgery ending this current season and not also 2023 for Fletcher, he said, “No further questions,” and walked out of the room.

j/k…but it’s not funny, really. We need the Good Fletch we’ve seen in the past.

Out 2 months. So he’ll be back in the lineup hopefully In August.

oh boy…..don’t like them not saying why.

No injury designation…. so probably symptom free covid.

Sucks to have to go on the IL for a cold

Are you sure you got those right?

Under
Under
They won’t get to eight

You say that, but he had a few rows of players at his retirement announcement that were tearing up. The players loved Sosh.

The cowboy hat is stupid…. but it’s our stupid. I’m sure I’d hate it if A’ss were doing it.

Though sometimes Joe had to have his toys taken away *cough*C-shit*cough*

David Price is also available. He could fit in a 6 man rotation…

I’m surprised Cabbage hasn’t been promoted to AAA yet. he’s destroying the Southern League.

Wow. Surprised about Buttrey. I wonder if the defense has been poor behind him or he’s just making bad pitches. If it is the latter then we can see why he has not been brought up.

I was just going to post Adell’s two games stats and then I saw your comment. Let’s hope that he will see his defensive weaknesses as well and work to overcome them. The article in the Salt Lake Tribune indicated that he was not told why he was sent down but I don’t believe that. Adell could help this team a lot. Let’s hope that he can turn things around.

Don’t have athletic so can’t speak to the specifics of their perceived “life skills” but its like they are treated as unpaid interns which is pretty lousy of MLB in general. Sadly this is not shocking. Owners are greedy and Manfred is a useful idiot in their employ.

Secondly, baseball doesn’t translate to actionable life skills in the real world for MiLB guys who don’t make big league rosters.

Agree on the offense. It would be nice to find a solution at 2B and ss that does not hurt us offensively, but if those other things happen it might not matter…

The real questions are around starting pitching. Detmers is a weak spot among starters and somebody good needs to take the place of Suarez. We can’t do bullpen games every 6th day the rest of the season. So, that is two starting spots we need to figure out if Detmers does not improve significantly.

Also, I am keeping my fingers crossed that Sandoval remains fairly consistent. We absolutely HAVE to have him pitching at a high level if we want to compete with Houston and New York. Along those lines both he and Thor need to stay healthy!

Also, as Cowboy and others have stated we need more bullpen depth. Elvis is a liability. Let’s bring Buttrey up! Perry, what are you waiting for?

Bring waders just in case the shitter’s full.

The only times I have ever sat that close was in Spring Training games a couple of years ago. Once you do it, at least for me, it’s hard to go back to the nose bleed seats that are somewhat affordable.

My wife and I are planning on retiring in Puerto Rico in a couple of years (she is from there). One of our requirements is close to a town with a baseball team (a lot of them have them) where I hope to attend many, many games. I am trying to learn Spanish so I can understand the announcers, besides being able to converse with most of the population! She tells me they are often very animated and can be pretty funny.

I’m going to the 8/10 day game.

Planning to take my son to an Angels-A’s series in Oakland this year (not this upcoming one though). Never been to that dump but he needs to see this team this year.

Do you have any advice on parking? I don’t want to take BART or anything.

With peeps talking about going to away games, just bought our tickets for the Angels game in Seattle on August 5th. First time going to an away game for the Angels. Section 236.

For extra 20 dollars, perhaps you can sit in the Angels dugout?

I agree but would also say having fun is easier when winning.

Green ribbons represent Mental Health Awareness month I believe. TB bullpen catcher died by suicide in January so I imagine it has significant meaning for them as well.

(2) No it started at the beginning of the season at the Big A. Unfortunately the Angels only hit very few homers during that homestead so no-one really had a chance to comment on it. For some unknown reason none of the announcers have taken the effort to investigate what the genesis is for the Cowboy hat other than it is similar to other teams HR celebrations like the Blue Jays ( Blue Blazer) Or Padres (Gold Blink Blink) I would have to think its a tribute to the Cowboy Gene Autry but who knows?

Though maybe it’s better leaving the origin to legend, so in that case…

Margot also looked good in Superman….

that other two that are not Orioles miss out.

As I recall, the last time that happened, they expanded the playoffs.

Uh Oh SpaghettiOs

the Rays or maybe even the Jays

You can call me Ray, or you can call me Jay, or you can call me RJ….

“Woke up this morning feeling fine, got Angels winning last night on my mind.”  🎸  🎺  🎶 

But then he had to retract and clarify his comments so the New York cesspool industrial complex doesn’t try to ruin him from future baseball jobs.

I took a trip to New York with the fiancé and some buddies last summer to catch a game at Citi Field and Yankee Stadium. Citi Field impressed the heck out of me. A beautiful ballpark that reminded me a bit of Petco Park. Meanwhile Yankee Stadium was so boring. I was really excited to visit Monument Park only to find out they close it 45 minutes before first pitch. I walked by 42 minutes before to my very unpleasant surprise. The game presentation at Yankee Stadium was also incredible boring, similar to Angel Stadium (not including this year). Overall, Yankee Stadium is very, very boring. They really did a terrible job at building that industrial complex.

By the FSM’s noodly appendage. That was horrible. First, the runner’s foot was on the plate. Second, the catcher dropped the ball post-tag, with the foot still on the plate. Barstool is right, that’s Angel Hernandez quality umpiring.
