Angels at Padres Gamethread

I really love this facility. The back fields were renovated a few years ago and are set up nicely. I highly recommend a visit.

This is Angels baseball. It doesn’t matter if they win, it matters that you have a problem with them no matter the outcome.

Sad Donkeys need Spring Training too.

I don’t really have a problem, just thought it was a surprising statistic. Pitchers don’t need Ks to be effective.

I’m just kiddin you…. though Sad Donkey’s probably DO need Spring Training. It’s a skill you don’t just fall out of bed with one day.

Jack Dashwood. Cho in da Show! Gettin that ERA below 20. Hell yeah!

Denzer Guzman. I know the goal for him is to try and make him NOT uppercut everything, but do we really want him to stop doing that?….. sigh, yeah probably.

Cole Fontenelle is a beefy boy and it made me happy he got a hit. Kavadas, also even more beef, also a hit. even when he hits for an out I am scared for the fielder. He will likely need to go to AAA. Maybe the outfield experiment will work out there and he’ll keep building command of the strike zone? Add Nota to the mix…. lots of beef!

It’s way to early to be sure but I think McDanials may McLefty his way into saving all your tender little parts from having to watch Suarez. Perry was clearly stupid picking that guy up. Burke, Quijada and McLefty…. not a bad LHRP group….

Lugo is probably a hall of famer….

Soriano’s stuff still looks good. Man he throws hard for a guy who looks like he’s barely trying. You’d never know his arm is 15% cadaver.

Definitely something the Angels haven’t had in CF since prime Trout (defensively better, really).

Think folks are seeing in these early games why it’s way too early to give up on kids like Rada and Guzman, who were absurdly young for AA last year.

Got busy doing assorted stuff and forgot to turn on the game until just a minute ago. Roger Lodge and Bobby V? Oh the humanity. Is it possible, given the assortment of full-time and occasional broadcasters the Halos use, to have a worse combination? This cannot be random, it must be intentional torture.

I love V because I can’t tell if he’s senile, drunk or both.

A triple off the right center wall and nice play at third coming in on a grounder?
