Angels vs. A’s Gamethread

As I type this in January, I’m saying there’s a decent chance I bypass the office and go to this one. Stubhub will be super cheap.

The Angels and Nevin are all worried bullpen load management and Poor Charlie’s arm is going to fall off by July.

Phillip might want to seek a happy medium between overuse and abuse to overly cautious it’s costing wins.

So as the guy that missed half the game on Gameday… did Ohtani have a plain old meltdown today? Or was it closer than it looks?

Rendon made an error that would have saved some of the runs. About 3, I think

plus I think Neto would have had the ground ball single that git by Gio before that.

When and how? Did he drop a foul? The box score looks like a complete Ohtani melt down in the 4th – HBP, walk, HR, HBP, HR, ground-rule double, then 3 straight outs.

The only recorded error was by Rengifo in the 8th.

Oh, I see it. Renfroe (not Rendon) failed to catch a catchable 3-run HR.

I still can’t believe how the A’s only has 5 wins and 40% of them are against us.

He looks dominant now that he has gotten into form. His fastball today was devastating.

Shohei gets 1B/2B/3B, the W and 8 Ks.
and he disappoints me.

Long deep breaths, inhale slowly, exhale slowly, fingers crossed, One down, hopes are high today with Estevez looking good, two down-one more to go

Estevez is starting to win me over. He has looked absolutely dominant recently.

I don’t want to make too much of one game, but we really need to win this one.
