red team better
Angels vs Blue Jays game 1
You know what keeps Arte, Perry and Kurt believing that keeping payroll low, signing marginal talent, drafting meekly, and playing the worst combination of a starting nine is a viable strategy?
The Angels have the worst record in the AL and are only 3 games out of a playoff spot.
All hail the Mensa Trio!
Y’all would think of me differently if I said what I really want to say about Suzuki.
Moncada and Lowe are starting again. No Peraza. Fuck this team dude
Either Perry is a puppeteer or we have the reincarnation of Phil Nevin. Stupid to keep throwing moncada and Lowe out there when they aren’t hitting and their defense is below par
Okay Grissom is playing but not Peraza. Who is Martinez. You s he the backup catcher and who is he
Somehow the Ducks game is going worse than this game went. Anaheim sports in the gutter tonight 🤮
Vegas just jumped on the Ducks, from the get go, pretty much controlled the entire game. Just like the Montreal-Buffalo battle, one sided.
Ducks will reemerge strongly in Game 4 as they now have the urgency to avoid being down 3-1. Playoff hockey, the best.
Who I am to question 3x Stanley Cup winning coach Quennivelle, but I don’t understand his lineup choices. Why are we playing 4 4th liners against Vegas? It worked in game 3 when it came as an element of surprise, yesterday not so much.
To your point, playoff puck is about adjustments and now it’s our turn to adjust. Hope we see McTavish back in the lineup and maybe even Vatrano. Need depth scoring options against Vegas’ defense
- Lowe and Moncada go 0-for-7.
- Benched Grissom pinch hits and hits a double in his lone AB.
- Offseason FA target Kazuma Okamoto (only $15m/yr) hitting cleanup, playing 3B, with 10 HRs for Toronto.
It’s like a Hellraiser reboot, and Angels fans are touching that cursed rubik’s cube again and again. Don’t touch the cube, halo honks!
Even if Okamoto was truly a target, would the guy have signed here though?! I mean, it’s a choice between the WS runner-up vs long-running division bottom-dweller. I don’t think it would have been a hard choice for Okamoto.
Yes, we fault for Perry for a lot of things, and accurately too. But signing FAs is a two-way street. And it’s a fact that there are players who don’t want to sign here. Because why would they want to?!
so it took my son 18 years to finally like baseball but he likes it now. Of course the Angels being horrible since he is old enough to remember and he has no desire to follow the Angels. Instead he loves Drake Baldwin. Can’t say I blame him. A friend of mine who is a Braves fan sent him a Baldwin jersey and now we are going to a Braves game in San Diego in June. That is money you are losing Arte and Ms. Molly not so Jolly.
Still not over that horrible non-challenge by Trout. You have a guy at third, it’s the 8th inning, it’s the closest that you’re going to score the entire game. You’re down to 1 strike with 2 outs. Why wouldn’t you try anything that would save your ass in that situation????
