Why is Monty bringing Kenley in for a non-save? If it works, it’s unnecessary.

I guess I was way off on my O/U K’s number. You win if you took the over.

Hammer doesn’t fit him right now. More like Logan O’I got lucky and finally made decent contact.

Was hoping that Sori would go 7 but, 6 complete is now in question…

I’m sort of enjoying this game because of its meaningfulness and also because we’re ahead

About that 2-0 pitch to Neto which was a foot off the plate:
deGrom and other pitchers know the Angels are guess hitters. 2-0? They are swinging. Why throw a strike? Neto tried to check his swing but failed.

I agree, although they have been doing surprisingly well on a good number of them.

Neto is also 1-2 with a homer and walk thus far. The other guys get paid too and DeGrom is pretty damn good.

Angels doing a great job of raising the pitching for deGrom: 88 in 5 innings so far

DeGrom does not look sharp. O’Hoppe had a chance to blow the game open but he had another terrible AB and let him off easily.

Yes.
Terrible at-bat in a season full of terrible at-bats

Too my mind, Soriano has looked better than DeGrom so far.

I see Trout got a much needed day off.

Hopefully more than one day.

I think they should let him take the rest of the year off. Maybe he can reset next year.
Super Member

I definitely agree.

I like to see Trout take rest of August off, return in September.

My guess is he needs to see an optometrist or rest his knee. If it’s his knee, he should be done for the year. If it’s an eyesight problem, he can go to Costco tomorrow and get an appointment.

It is DeGrom. It’s excusable in this case.

And now comes the 4th for Soriano.
Uh oh!!

Will 2 be enough? I say he goes 7+ and gives up nothing.

Looking good so far!

O’Hoppe is as bad as Trout. He is painful to watch.
Legend

He does cost about 36 million a year less.
Super Member

Trout’s K’s are definitely more costly.
Legend

Trout, Rendone and Soler cost so much money and produce nothing.

Between Adell, Ward, Kavadas and O’Hoppe, that’s probably 10 alone.
