whew fresh thread
need Torii or Naps to get some RBI's
aww crap we just had to mess with a good thing
Go for the cycle Kowbell!
Let's Go Angels!
I was just going to post the same thing!

…beat me again….DAMN!)

Agreed Rev, SOS really earned his pay...
Casey Kotchman has two home runs this year
The most underrated part of that trade may end up being that it cleared the way for Morales.
Our farm system gets a lot of heat

But the backups to our can’t-miss prospects have been pretty good.

Napoli, Morales, Saunders...

you might be onto something there.

Who knows, that could be S-Rod some day

Though I’m rooting hard for Howie.

Personally I'm hoping that doesn't mean Aybar instead of Wood.
Well, maybe we could think of S-Rod as Juice's back up... >_>;
Im sure that crossed the minds of the Big Fellas.....

which is why they pulled the trigger

Maybe they would trade us for Q?
keep this thing going!
Nth!
Uh...Nth squared?
No

E = mc squared.

F=MA
I was never too good at the alphabet...
Force = Mass x Accleration
You're a regular Halliday and Resnick!
You just took all the fun out of math...
I think I got a handle on this...

F = Female
M = Male
A = Appetite

Yes?

to the Nth degree
Nice try, Izzy.

We need Geico, Naps.

We should start saying "Nationwide" instead. :-P
well......

it is on your side……

But we'd be in good hands with Allstate
Thank God we've moved out of Aflac territory!

Ervin Santana could be back in the Angels’ rotation sometime this weekend at home against the Orioles if he has no setbacks with his right forearm.

Manager Mike Scioscia made that disclosure before Monday night’s series opener against the Rangers.

hopefully we see '08 santana again
two out rally, now

c’mon Neckbeard

need a nappy bomb
Did Nappy join the Tattoo of the month club?
Is it just me

or is that a bit revolting?

I do not believe I will get a membership in that club...
I need a nap.

Seriously

we'll take a walk
Nice patience, naps.
nice non patience....Aybar.....

bastard

jepsen can take these guys
hahaha nice name
Jepsen couldn't take a JUCO team
The Dbacks are a JUCO team.
pOOp
..no no...it's poop-on

Be a lady!

please DON'T pass the poop-on!!

or Shall we poop-on the Rangers?

Speier in. I'm...not sure I'm okay with this.
He's been awesome lately.

It’s like it took him a year and a half to fight his way off the mothership and kill the suckfest of a bodysnatching alien who was impersonating him.

Hes better now. I dont break out in hives when he pitches anymore

the tremors are still there though

I still get a nervous twitch
speier v righties

= NA-NA-NAILS

Story about John Wilhite after the game should be interesting
cmon bullpen

please finish this game

Speier in Arlington...excuse me if I reach for stomach meds...
special on John Wilhite after the game

I saw John at the playoff game at Cal State Fullerton

On Fox Sports?
yup, I think so
Nice hops, Izzy.
Izzy...nice play!
Great catch izzy
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaflaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaac

What a sight to come home to from the dentist

Mighty Mouse!
let speier finish the whole game off
come on Just Inspire us!!
He seems to inspire opponents...
Maybe soon I can see Speier come out without having PTSD symptoms
But not today. :-P
Maybe not. 0_o
Just a single, Justin. No sweat.
Lots of sweat

It’s hot deep in the heart of Texas

Has speier been hangin out with Jobu or what?
Damn Clankbar
Took his eye off the ball.
Dash it all!
FREE BRANDON WOOD!
were just going to give him away...?
with purchse of one Brandon Wood at retail price
Here comes blalock

bring in fuentes. power hitting lefties feast on speier

well shinola
stupid, stupid, stupid
damn damn damn

ahhhh your killing me aybar

Whither Brandon Wood?
Oh for the love of ....

Johnnie Walker time

Good pitch speier.

It was a amazing play he cant make it.

ball goes IN the glove
everything is so black and white with you...

;)

part of my female charm
"We'll see how they score that."

It BETTER be an error.

he's double digit on errors in my scorebook.

it’s hard to get an error in the majors these days.

we're fine...

mookie blalock is batting… no problem

I dont feel too good
phew that scared me
I think Speier's having PTSD symptoms
paging Emanski, Tom
Wild pitch.

I take it back. The alien suckfest was just lulling us into a false sense of security.

Meh. Even if he blows it the suck is on Aybar, not Speier.
who threw the pOOp at the fan? huh???
So what would have kept Oliver from pitching a 2nd inning?
Heatness, and ...

tomorrow, and the next day.

Have some faith in the whole team concept

damn it spier get it together Nao!!
yeah you better field that aybar
that was a little too close
W H E W ! ... ! ... !
ditto that Revie!
you must really want this win

with all your caps and one word posts today

not a lot to say

just win baby…

Eybar "makes" the routine play...
nice work Speier
no problem...

only used up 2 depends this 1/2 inning. no sweat.

good inning by speier
Whew.

Had me worried there for a minute.

out of it.......

thank god

thank you Speier

dude’s been pretty good lately

Speier giving Aybar a makeup chance
Speier still sucks.
got two power hitting lefties out

he hasnt done that since 2006

Hes done it before?
back when quinlan was mashing lefties

there was a man, a man who used to put out fires, lefties or righties, it didn’t matter.
that man was justin … then he ate some bad tacos and was never the same

anyone heard from Higz lately?
Heard he went on a hunger strike to free brandon wood
his wife is very due...just wonder if everything is OK
and Higz would never avoid a meal
Been due for a while, no?
whew spier did that for dramatic suspence.
Channeling his inner k-rod
oh man

krod scared me so much no joke

Angels relievers do that a lot.

You’ll get used to it. Or you’ll have a nervous breakdown and take stress medication for the rest of your life.

It’s a 50/50 shot, really.

or develop an unhealthy attachment to Johnniw Walker Black
Actually I think that one happens either way.
yeeeeeah! let's go halos
hey guy!
well hello there
I played LF groupie a few days ago
oh yeah? did you come to the show?

http://buzzbands.la/2009/06/16/gallery-buzz-bands-la-party-at-the-echoplex/comment-page-1/

nah, groupie-sized here and provided pre-game entertainment by posting a link to your show
Why am I picturing Speier as our glue guy in October?

I must be either be just-in-spired by his play lately, a corn ball, or delusional.

There was a time, not too long ago, when he was very good
Brain damage.
i'm doing the same thing, it looks like he will be the new shields
It's possible

He is a Marine, isn’t he?

No, never played in Seattle.

He was quite the Blue Jay though.

Why you, I oughtta. . .
Channeling 2007.
Figgy and Hunter need to get on the board this inning.
dont forget abreu
Abreu has a hit already though.
Hunter just took care of his
come on Bobby....leave the golfing to Tiger
ok Torii, hit a bomb

so we can make pregame picks interesting.

yeahhhh 2 on 1 out
Two on for da VLADDY.
yaya torii there we go
Torii checkin' in!
torii joins the hit parade
nice torii

vladdy it would be a nice time for a bomb

vlad missing pitches he usually bombs

makes me sad

MORE RUNS PLEASE
What's Mathis doing in the Ranger's bullpen???
Getting hitting advice?
good for Torii.......

thought maybe he might start pressing a bit……

C'mon Vlad!

Uphold the honor of the 2s!

Mathis warming up for Tejas in the bullpen...

…are the Rangers that desperate for relief pitching?

that would be desperate
they're in worse shape than us!
c'mon vlad forget Jobu

do it yourself!

hey bartender, Jobu needs a refill
Buddha this is Jobu, Jobu... Buddha.
leave a fastball up
that was a pathetic at bat

now rivera will homer

That was not a good outcome Vlad
Ouch. 2 down. Vladdy still with a ways to go.

But hes got time.

Damn.

I don’t know much about Texas pitchers but I know that Eddie Guardado sucks immensely. Come on Vladdy.

dude has been in the league for like 250 years.....

since the days of Santa Ana and his merry men…….

must be doing something right…..

Oh thats right……….he’s a lefty……..they dont have to be good to stick around.

damn vladdy

i hope you make a surge this season please

Guardado seemed unhappy at being taken out.
seems to me

that he was pissed at Washington

Taxes too high
little Mr Temper Tantrum
The Rangers supply

 the wrong kind of ice

FU*K YOU ??? what did the guy say
How many pitchers did rangers go through this game?
this is number 4
Forgot to count your thumb.

’Sokay. Happens to all of us.

So far, four....heading to five.

None uglier than Vincente Padilla though.

they always over use the bullpen going back to Buck Showalter's days
Everyone

On the staff and in the bullpen gets to try for the complete game. Express Style.

Whoa make that 5 (top gun)
good for us

their bullpen is shorter tomorrow

leaves the lefty in to face vlad

but yanks him before rivera does damage

o'l hack n; slash Vlad
throwing a fit doesn't help
it helps me laugh at him
that poor icebag didn't deserve that.
the ice wasn't cold enough
I think Guardado didn't get a toy in his happy Meal...
Aww does liddle Eddie need his baba?
he needs some wawa.
he's got a serious case of the Mondays
OH!!!!

That’s a DIFFERENT Mathis.

Not Jeff.

That's how Eddie Guardado's still in the league...

Scaring the s**t out of everyone. “YEAH WAIVE ME… I DARE YOU….”

Wow. Guardado was NOT happy. Wonder what happened to make him that pissed.
Got taken out of the game.
After striking out Vlad
I gotta be honest.

I don’t think Mike would put up with someone who gets that mad about getting taken out of the game.

Especially when its the right call.
yup

remember jose guillen?

See Guillen, Jose
roids, baby. Roids
HULK SMASH
Didn't have the green mitts on
LOCK IT DOWN, FELLAS
Well, away we go to the bottom of the 9th...
fuentetime
It just doesn't have the same ring...
Here comes the Fuentesaurus!

rawrawrawrawrrawrawrawrawrrawrawrawrawrrawrawrawrawrrawrawrawr

Fuentes says.......

RELAX

Angels fans say...

Closers for the last 20 years have given us heartburn

where is the bottle of Tums
Medicine cabinet

Third shelf, next to the maalox

Behind the Jim Beam

"....I never expected to be best in anything..."
Why does Ron Washington remind me of...

Elgin Baylor…

He always looks like he couldn’t care less if his team was good or sucked balls.

phew fuentes is in

thank you

Oh noes it's the Fuentasaurus
You know, their offense is really overrated
It was probably nastier when Josh Hamilton was still in it.
Overrated even then, but yes
Playing outfield

did he even run into the wall on that play?

How the **** does that guy have more votes than Hunter?
Socal voters are lazy.

Plus ESPN ignores us.

Hmmm. . .

Maybe that’s why Naps is getting all those tats.

ESPN loves

the Republican teams

That's some sort of ironic jest, right?
BF is my BFF.
then again BFF could also stand for BRIAN "F******" FUENTES
brian "fuentes" fuentes?
rawr!

let’s go Fuentasaurus!

GAAAAAAAOW

Maicer pulling it from his gut

leadoff man out.......

Step 1 in Saving baseball games for dummy complete…….

"Been there, done that."
"I'm the best at everything"
SNARL!

Mota is tiny
