Was that 1 pitch and two outs?

Too bad. I like Samy but I believe this is the last time we’ll see him pitch for us in Anaheim

unless he gains 5 mph on his fastball, he’s just never going to get hitters out consistently. It’s almost like watching a position player out there.

Way to finish strong in front of the home fans.

Who on the Angels thinks a guy with an 87 mph 4 seamer is EVER going to pitch well?

Moore has the same range as Rengifo.

if we lose today, which seems likely, we will only need to split the last 6 games to avoid 100 losses. The two walk offs this week may have saved us.

Nothing wrong with 100 losses. The 2023 Orioles went from 110 losses previous season to 101 wins.

With this loss we’ll have reached that inevitable day when we clinch being in the top 3 odds for the #1 pick

No error on Siri??

Doesn’t make any sense.

Siri can’t catch an easy fly ball. Then, he jogs in for a throw past second base which allows the runner to score all the way from second base. He’s done these things many times before. He is a cancer. DFA.

I’ve never taken a shine to Perry’s 30+ year old journeyman OFs acquisitions. The only one that I thought was somewhat worthy was Kevin Pillar.

if he was on a team where things like that weren’t allowed to slide then he could be a decent last OF off the bench, but Suzuki and Trout run the team on good vibes where there is no accountability and you are patted on the butt after hitting into a double play that the 2B botches and still easily turns the double play because you walked out of the box.

Sammy Peralta is like that 45 overall ranked player in MLB the Show were you wonder how on God’s green earth did this player ever touch foot on a major league field.

Wow Siri decided he wanted to make it look cool, when it was just a fly ball.

We need two new OFs next year

How is Brady Anderson still here, the offense seems to be getting worse, not better.

Happy RJ failed to yield base on balls, struck out 6. Just seven seeing eye straggly looking singles got him. RJ is looking like a lock for next years rotation.

yea he’ll slot in nicely after Detmers, Walbert, and Skubal.

First thing this team has to improve next year is the OF defense. Get Trout to DH, don’t offer Lowe a contract as I think he’s arb eligible. Get someone that can actually play some good OF defense. We need at least one anchor out there. Also please never play Moises at 1B and Grissom at 2B, that has to be the right side of the infield with the least range ever. And Moore isn’t much better.

Two runs isn’t insurmountable. The Halos can do this.

Trout .250 watch: I believe he has to hit .393 the rest of the way. It’s such a small sample that it’s possible. My hope is that he doesn’t drop into the .230s (he’s awfully close)

Neto leads the team in pretty much every single batting statistic and yet:
Angels players voted for Mike Trout as the team’s 2026 MVP.
Super Member

He also leads the team in strikeouts and errors.
This speaks volumes about what the team feels about Neto. Maybe Neto’s general immaturity rubs the guys the wrong way.
Super Member

Not exactly. He leads in Ks, being thrown out trying to steal by a ton, and all the counting numbers because other than Trout who he’s been up almost 70 times more, he’s been up 200 times or more more than everyone else on the team. That and playing SS give him a tremendous advantage for accumulating WAR.Trout is a 15% better hitter than Neto relative to the league.
He doesn’t lead in OBA or OPS, or BA. He does lead in Slugging pct. This is a really bad team so he is tied with Meckler as the 2nd best hitters on the team behind Trout. He’s one of the 3 best players on a really bad team.
Not saying he’s not a good player, but he’s certainly not a runaway choice for the best player, and an argument could be made either way. He’s a mixed bag for sure.

If they voted him as the MVP it would be legitimate, but picking Trout over him is not a big deal. Just my opinion. When I saw how many more ABs he had than everyone else, if he wasn’t leading in all the counting categories, he would not be a very good player. He’s clearly one of the top 3 players on this team and if anyone thinks he’s the best player, I don’t have a strong argument against that. I was just pointing out that he has huge advantages over his teammates and is a mixed bag because of all the errors, how many times he’s been thrown out, the Ks, and the fact that other than slugging, he doesn’t lead in any of the rate categories. But I’ll be happy to say he’s the MVP, because he plays the most important defensive position on the field, has been extremely durable this year and is one of the top 2 hitters on the club.

I apologize Rex, I did not mean to rain on your parade. I was just pointing some things out.

All good. Just pointing it out.
The players vote speaks for itself.
Zach had a good year, but there’s more to baseball than counting stats.

It has many names, including:
-past performance effect
-halo effect
-legacy effect
He didn’t deserve it this year.

My team MVP: wade meckler. Trout is in the top 3 along with Neto.
Biggest surprise: sale of the team, starting pitching, farm improving.

Not sure what the announcers are referring to when they say the team has been playing better lately. They were 11-17 .392 in August and 6-10 .375 in September.

100 losses would be .383. Last night’s win puts 100 losses in doubt.

I believe we’ve won 4 of our last 6 so that’s what they’re looking at.
