Nice try Ben. Offense sucked tonight.

And Washington moves the ghost runner over to 3rd by properly bunting. Something the Angels just don’t do. Gonna be hard to keep the runner from scoring.

JJ Cooper of Baseball America gave me a hard time this week suggesting that maybe Moore should have gotten a mention in this week’s Prospect Hot Sheet. He said he “didn’t compare” to prospects like Zach Dezenzo and Spencer Jones (2 HRs each last week).

Ahem.

What are your thoughts about a possible call-up soon, TT? Sure is the Angels’ MO to move them up quick.

Galloping Guillorme/Schanny/Captain Neto: get one run and let the Irishman save it.

Is his defense that much better to make up for his crappy offense?

I broke out in a sweat just watching this game, sitting here with the AC on in my La-Z-Boy. That place is built on a swamp.

The Nats defense is a gift that keeps on giving.
