Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Game 59/162

Game Thread - Angels at Devil Rays - Jered Weaver vs. Seth McClung - 1:15 pm

Star-divide

Hold yer breath folks, Jered's on my fantasy team! But I really only drafted him because he loks like Crispin Glover

Intentionally Altered Movie Lines:
Jered Weaver:
Yes. Yes. I'm George, George McFly. I'm your density.

I'm splitting town and yeswecan is supposed to post today's endgame thread and Friday's game thread. I will get the Picks sidebar updated over the weekend, promise!

Beat My Runs and Hits Picks: LAA: 5, 9 ... TBD: 0, 6

Laugh not at Jered's locks
I tried to join a ping-pong club
Sign on the door said:

Angels 4/8
Devil Rays 2/7

Oh snapz
Angels: 5/9
Devil Rays: 2/8
Tommy Lasorda blows..
Angels- 6/10
Even Maddon can't save them- 3/8
Oh no, the Libyans!
Anaheim DeLoreans- 7/10
Tampa Bay Flux Capacitors- 2/4

The Weav is gonna own again... Then someone in the bullpen will blow in a couple runs.

Jeff

Beer anyone ?
Tastes Great 10
Less Filling 3
My cat can eat a whole watermelon.
Angels - 9/14
Asswipes - 2/6

Second best Crispin Glover movie ever.

We saved some for today
Angels  7 and 12
06/06/07 Rays 4 and 9
i meant 06/07/06 rays
still isnt funny
Lil' Weav
Halos 6/14
DRays 1/5  
Pickapeppa
Angels: 7/11
Drays: 4/8

Weaver gives up some runs this time but gets enough support to win another.

Given Colon's performance last night, I expect that Jered gets approximately 15 more starts this year.

Mine
Angels: 8/12
D'Rays: 2/3

The Rays will be with Rocco Baldelli in today's lineup; he's returning from the 15-day DL.

It's Tricky
Run DMC 7 and 13
MC Hammer 1 and 9

"This beat is my recital
I think it's very vital
To rock (around)
That's right (on time)
Heh heh heh heh heh here we go!"

ohhhh....
I love this song.

I met this little girly,
her hair was kind of curly,
went to her house to bust her out;
I had to leave there early.

Let's win this series today.
Halos: 7/13
DRays: 2/6

We need this one today. Another series win, another step back in the right direction. If Jared does it again today, things will be looking extremely bright for the future, particularly if one of the other kids contributes offensively.

Let's go Halos!

My Picks...+ Line Up Card

SP Errors
that's motivated btw
Haven't seen many FSN West 'casts lately
but Hud seems even more hyper than usual!
And it looks like
there's about 50 people in Tropicana Field today - sounds like it too
a little late....oh well
McWeave 6/11
McClung 2/7

Is that our former catcher?? Looked at the pic on gamdeday...doesnt even look like him.

LMAO..
"Vlad goes deep....did you know one out of whatever men gets prostate cancer?"

nice segue there guys

LOL!
Quality - although prostate cancer is no laughing matter
No shit
Think I'm doomed: my dad and two of my uncles had it.
Sorry to hear that
unfortunately cancer is partially genetic so there's a good chance you'd get it if both grandfathers and father did too :(
just get your bend over and cough exams
Fly ball outs
If those are the types of fly balls Weaver typically gets, I'll take 'em.
Typical Jer. Weaver 1st
Three popup outs, 13 pitches.
You better not GIDP
Dallas.
we should really kill
mcclung..casey kotchman had his huge 2 homer game last year against him
Weaver
does not look sharp.  Too many pickoff tosses, not enough focus on Baldelli in the box.
He still
Got him out. He's faring fine; I'll be worried if/when he has the Jeff Weaver inning and gives up 6 runs.
7 of the first 8
He looks pretty sharp to me.
Make that 9 of 10
Does anyone
know the record for pop outs in a game?
So
when Bartolo comes back, is it Weave sen to the pen? What other option is there?
not if
weaver wins this one
I meant Weaver the Elder
Jeff Weaver, not Jered
Naps
take that Tampa Bitches!
WORKS FOR ME
HOMER BY NAPOLI.. ANGELS 3, RAYS 0
Nice pitching call, Josh!!!
WAY TO GO Napster
LOL
Josh Paul is writing a book on the mental game of catching too!!!
Man he hit the crap out of that one.
Naps good
Jose not
I hope the next ball tell Hud to shut up.
mCclunk!
HE should play everyday. Napoli...

Rex is soo high right now

No doubt
high as a kite today!
Bouna Sera senor baseball
It is time to say goodbye, from Napoli.

One for the old timers here (there must be some, surely?)

Oh dear
Rex just explained that a solo shot 'won't hurt you as much as a 3-run shot' - no shit!
that is a little known fact.
Rex is a stickler for detail.
kill them or nominate them..
It hurts even worse when you're flipping from dodger games back to Angels game. Scully domintaes those two morons
on a bad day....
Scully could kick their asses in a coma.  

Old Vin is nails, every single game.

Jeff

I dislike Vin as much as Hud and Phys
but I understand I am in the minority.
and now a collective sigh...
Someone needs to remind Jered that
groundball outs are okay.
LMAO
"he can watch it on Angels live after the game"
"but Phys, there is no Angels live after this game."

I think you two need to coordinate your plans for after the game

Real shortstops of the OC
haha
laffy taffy, shake that laffy taffy, i miss anaheim stadium, circa 93
Schwa?
Watching via Gameday.  How'd the Angels get their fourth run?  I show Figgins walking, then scoring on a Cabrera sac fly.  I knew he was fast, but if I missed seeing him take three bases on a sacrifice, I'm gonna cry...
2 BASE
THROWING ERROR FOR THE RAYS..
Pickoff by McClung
bounced in the dirt, over Wiggington's glove and down the right field line - Chone went to 3rd on the error
Thanks guys
Figured it was something like that.
You can start to see some of the elder Weaver come
out in Lil' Weav.  Too mnay flyballs will eventually kill you.
No groundball outs
yet today 11 fly ball and 4 k's for his outs
to his defense
im not watching but according to gameday alot of them have been popups
there's been a bunch
lots infield
Ah Vladdy
Howcome he can make a play like that yet drops far simpler ones!
nice catch....
Vladi actually caught the ball..wow. Maybe we have turned a corner towards real baseball
WAHOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo
Napoli and Kendry down
Dallas is due.
dmac's avg
is up to 267! thats pretty respectable
Two hits are good enough for me.
now hes at
276!
seth mclung is our Estaban Yan
poor estaban
anyone know
if yan has pitched for the reds yet?
he earned a save the other night.
could he be worthy
of picking up in fantasy baseball? never would think i would say that about esteban yan
yup
against the Cards- 2 innings
oops
meant to say I caught 2 innings...don't know what he did for the game
Double will do
with 1 out
i think Rex is a dealer
and the cameramen are his best clients. They're so bad today...
I was just gonna say that
so far they have missed several plays. Seems like no one is cuing the announcers that a game is in progress
they are getting paid to watch
no one should have to cue them
you would think that.
There's been 3 times that I have noticed that they are yackity yacking about absolutely nothing and having to interrupt themselves because some big plays/hits/homers just happened.  
it sucks..
I aways wonder about the people watching on MLBtv. It pains me to think that this is what they see. What happened to Dick Enburg?
The Angles just selected Brewer number three
in the 50th round.
any of them
related? pretty odd..brewer isn't the most common last name
Carrasco
arghhhhh
i think
shields should go the 7th and 8th either way
Yeh
He hasn't pitched for a while and it's still fairly close - Lil' Weav's given us 6 strong innings, but they're starting to hit it harder so I'd pull him out
plus
we have tomorrow off
A groundball out!! Amazing!
what's the score?
6-2 angels
garret just knocked cabrera in with a single.
just arrived
looks good so far, folks! jered's line is good, and the angels are hitting the ball! so far, so good.
hot sauce
in..he better not suck today or at least shields better be ready to clean up
Where is Scott?!!!
scot with T!
better come in the 8th or ill be worried
ATTA BOY Figgy
nice catch figgy
a hustle play. for once.
well done Carrasco
the hot sauce
doesn't even make a mess
nickname
i, too, also think of Tabasco, but i also think of that old soap Boraxo, which had a great theme song:

lather up with Boraxo
shake hands with Boraxo
come clean with Boraxo
shake hands with Boraxo...

anybody remember this?

He already has a nickname
It's Pipo!
Napoli
Three true outcomes indeed.  So far 1-3 with a home run, a strikeout and a walk.
nice play OC
who needs the others, out #2 OC
WHY OH WHY did you do that OC??
Light up that Halo!
5 series wins in a row, seems like things are finally turning round - be nice to sweep someone though, ideally the M's this weekend
Light up that Halo, Bitches!
Shields
The rest has done him good.
Good night, Gracie
Just Another Halo Victory.
sorry matt UK
didn't mean to copy you, but i'm pumped!
Haha
No problem mate, it's not like I invented the phrase or anything!
