we’ve moved back towards the bottom. Tied with KC, ahead of Colorado. 90 games left.

WALTON WITH THE ALMOST TIED IT UP HOME RUN

I guess it’s nice these career minor leaguers get their moment, but I’d rather use the lineup spot to develop younger players.

develop or screw up?

I think O’Hoppe has been visiting with Trout’s Optometrist.

I’m not a psychologist, but I feel like Neto, with his gung ho personality, is trying to make up for his less than stellar fielding by trying to jack one out on literally every swing. This leads to worse and worse at bats and with the added pressure of all the strikeouts leads to more errors. Rinse and repeat.

maybe the best thing for him would be for him to hit a blast, have him watch it from home plate for a few seconds, then have it bang off the wall so he’s held to a single. Something to wake him up

That’s a creative idea.

Or trade him to another team where he doesn’t have to carry the load, just fit in.

it’s actually funny hearing the D-backs broadcast, they have no idea who’s going to close. It don’t matter guys. You’re gonna mow them down even with my grandma pitching.

100% fail by Angels Management. Neto shouldn’t be playing and certainly shouldn’t be leading off. I’d have him in SLC.

No doubt!! All of our .300 hitters are riding pine.

I swear I’ve seen Trout not challenge about 100 clear balls that were called strikes. The one time I see him challenge and it ain’t even close. DAFUQ ALREADY?

Trout has become a space cadet. Like the rest of the team.

Challenging on practicality or emotion, Mike?

Neto is a trainwreck.

Neto anchoring the team was not on my preseason bingo card. It’s getting embarrassing

Is our brilliant manager going to leave him in?

Shift Peraza to short or 3rd, sit Neto and get Madrigal in the game.
