This marks game 162. Thanks so much for hanging out with us this series. We love the community here and you are the reason we keep going. Stick around for the playoff threads and off season.
Ask any vet around here, the off season is the best time for laughs and rabbit holes around here.
Utterly appropriate ending. So I’m rooting for San Diego and Cleveland.
Anyone but the doyers. Padres and Brewers are my top two choices.
TW stick stays on his shoulder, again
lol what a perfect way to end the season
Yep. Perfect.
Perry fired?
Another season that leads to nothing. No direction, no vision, no hope.
Out with a whimper. Your 2025 Angels.
One last chance for a Buttercup!
Is it over? No postgame because why would you?
Goodbye, heefo! I will not ever think about you again!
Angels will re-sign Rengifo.
Because…..
Seriously, what good would it have done to keep Trout in this game? He ended the season on a high note and had a good month of September.
Soriano probably could have pitched again, but he’s been abysmal at home, so best just to sit him. And people here want to give Soriano a dumptruck load of money.
The good is potential 2 more HRs.
If you not going to play because game is meaningless, fine.
Next year, when Angels are eliminated on August 31st, then Trout can take September off and go golfing while watching his Eagles on their game day.
Every at-bat matters.
Or hang out with his family.
Did Trout pee in your Wheaties or something?
If you disagree, then post the response.
Him peeing in Wheaties is irrelevant, and this type of thinking is akin to management’s decisions that result in angels not making playoffs since 2014.
All you do is bash Trout. He is a baseball player. He’s not a coach, general manager or owner. He’s not a leader, but he is the best player to wear the Halo uniform.
Baseball is a team game and rarely, if ever, can one player change the dynamics of a poorly managed team to make the playoffs. Even Shohei couldn’t do it for this team.
Trout playing CF vs RF would have had zero bearing on any of these teams making the playoffs.
Comparing the Angels to the Dodgers is funny. They are completely different organizations. One is run well and the other is a dumpster fire.
Boy, Moore looks terrible.
well when you have relievers on your team that can’t even stay healthy on your team vouch for him as a good teammate instead of using analytics to pass on a guy with an obvious hole in his swing that most observers thought was going to get exploited by major league pitching, this is the result we get.
Another literal swing and miss for Minasian.
At this moment the Angels have a minus 166 run differential for the season. They have given up 838 runs so far. Ugh.
Is there any hope this team starts competing unless and until we completely clean house, from top to bottom?
No hope.
Clean house.
Start with Rengifo.
This game sucks. Change my mind.
Could be the last time we see Rengifo in a Halo uniform. Reason to celebrate! 🥳
Should the Pirates pull out a win today, they will end season with same record as our boys. The basement budget Pirates.
HR Derby Day
Samesies last night
Even though this loss today isn’t completed, officially the 2025 Angels will end with the worst team batting average on their entire franchise history. They are at .225 now, the worst previously was the 1968 team which ended at .227. Remember 1968 was the year of the pitcher in mlb.
And throw in over 1,620 strikeouts. And don’t steal many bases.
Just pathetic.
This ump… is a freaking joke.
Rafael Devers hit a home run today, game 163
Brogdon is another guy I won’t miss.
