So you are. Where have you been?
waiting for the 2nd thread so he could be first
Pffft

You know me so well!

Weeee! 2 quick outs from Bulger!
since you said PLEASE......
bulger looks like a confussed DUMBO
LETS GO HALOS
nice catch!!
You mean ...Torii is relearning the centerfield position?
looks that way....
1-2-3 inning for Bulger
Nothing like a fresh new thread
Thata Boy Bulger!

Pitching like its your job…

THANK YOU HUNTER!!

Terry sounds really excited that the inning is over, and not just from Hunter’s catch!

haha, bulger just lowered his ERA by almost 2 points
Whoa! My computer freaked out about the time you posted this link, and then it went straight to it.

And Bulger was great.

guilt trip commercials ROCK!
Man, bobby is looking too old to be in the OF.
For a minute I thought they were gonna run into each other full speed.

Whew.

Fat Chick Sings !!!
on gameday it said that ball was right down the middle feared the worst
I really want a Torii Hunter autograph
Game Thread 2:

The Recs Strike Back

i remember when we called him E-bar last season
i want more runs !!

k thnx bai

Phil Coke pitching
Shit. Boogie Shoes sucks.
stadium looks empty
It's pretty cold outside right now.
THIS

it was freezing last night when i was at the game

I hate KC and the Sunshine Band.
uh-huh, that's the way, uh-huh, I like it, uh-huh
its time to put on

my my my my my boogie earplugs

What is up with you women???

Bug and her dislike for Boston, and now this?

I never commented on Boston
More Than a Feeling?
oh that.....just said it wasn't my favorite
And Pink Floyd

and Rick James

Let's be fair.

If they wanted people to like them, they should have chosen a name that doesn’t induce hurling.

COKE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where is ron washington?

with Joba's mama
i think she was METH
he's trying something new
you dont try meth

you become meth

Ron Washington : the face of meth-ball
Meth Joba Regrets She is Unable to .... etc.
Not as good a bunt that time.
are those sweatshirts approved by MLB????
I hope not.
Did you read about Maddon?

Got chastised for wearing a non-approved hoody during a game!!
Hoodie-gate

No word yet on whether the glasses are non-regulation
no! Going off to read about it and laugh.

Honestly, I hate the homogenization being dictated by MLB.

next thing you know,

they’re all going to be in pinstripes.

Need more runs.
He should play for the Dodgers

Coke’s jersey would outsell Manny’s

My computer charger no longer works.

And I only have 23% charge left. So it looks like I’ll be turning in early tonight. Grr.

that's not good
I wish it was rodney not Fuentes
Let's see how the 9th goes
Time to ruin Coke's birthday, even if it ain't his birthday
its my mom's bday...

torii has permission to ruin it

Wouldn't this improve it?

Or is she a Tigers fan?

ha she's an angel fan...

but it has to be someone’s bday

So fuentes is closing tonight?
Oh YEah!
Hula Dula the Phil Coke Rula!!!!
ump wanted to call him out!
WAHOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There we go!

Get him in Godzilla!

Lightning flashes

Man, that song is going to be stuck in my head for way too long, now. Thanks fer nuthin.

Sorry.

It’s supposed to be a reference to the last thing you see before Godzilla OWNS you.

Oh. Er, that didn't work out.
Yeah, along his spines.

And hey, “I have a fever…” and “it’s a trap” don’t always work, but they are fun to say.

i am happy to have a new and improved reference for this line!
Come on Matsui!
HULA DULA

awl right

code red!!!

funny……lol

DID YOU ORDER THE CODE RED?
let's gooooo Stan
I hate you Jackson.
Jackson is good.....
But he's no GRANDERSON

Is he Available?

Let's trade for him!

Maybe we can get Granderson and then flip him and the rest of the farm for Jackson!

Dammit Jackson's getting everything
Hold on to yer butts everybody
Shit, nice catch by Austin Jackson though
I now officially hate Austin Jackson and his absurd range. >_<
What's his UZR, +9000 or something?
Everybody strap in, here comes in Fuentes!
action Jackson
did we scare off the youngin'???
looking for an erasure
duh

it’s past his bedtime.

hell, it’s past my bedtime.

Well here comes the high blood pressure Rodney has cured the last week and a half
Ha, isn't this exactly how we felt about Rodney at this time last week?
yah except he has only been on the team for a couple of weeks we know fuentes for a year
have known fuentes for a year
Maybe...

but then again he was almost perfect in save situations with the tigers. Brian Fuentes led the Al but almost blew it multiple times.

Worst commercial ever
we could kissssss
I'll watch.
scootch over....I'll watch too
Remember that 5 game win streak we had?

Fuentes doesn’t.

Brian Fuentes don't fail us now.

please don’t.

And I'm back...
Everybody go look at the

Yahoo! Sports homepage.

Look under the Stanley Cup section of the main stories. It says: “Satan saves Bruins in 2OT.” Who sold their sole for a Playoff win? LOL.

Speaking of which

VAN 5, LA 4, 1:37 left in 3rd

Will he get a Ferrari cake for it?
c'mon Fuentes

or we will sic Rodney on you

Why is everyone acting like fuentes is going to bomb this season so soon?
They have short little memories.
Why aren't you? lol j/king
maybe Im just conditioned to like closers who can throw hard

maybe its a percival thing?

Maybe it's a perception thing.
did u watch the second half of last season game 2 and 5 of ALCS
Did you watch the whole season?
It's not like he had 48 saves or anything
I know. Geez, he sucked so bad last year.
As bad as that HR to A-Rod was, it was the only run he allowed in the postseason
because they have

no faith….

do you need to see that again
Skankees ahead of the A's 3-1, top of the 9th
we got jobbed

by the wind tonight

at least it's regular

wind and not devil wind…

Just got my tax rebate back

317 dollars boya

I got a letter from the IRS

They want an extra 547 bucks.

this is state

i once had to pay $2000

I already paid mine, lol

feels great

i got back over $3000 from state and fed

i feel great

I have a seperate PO box and i do accept donations
i am a donation
that's what we had to pay this year
I paid 'me $90, the state owed me a big ol' refund.
I paid them. THEM. Post fail,.
$319

you don’t qualify for the EIC?

EIC?

is that an island thing?

Earned Income Credit

Unless you all make mookoo bucks

WE MADE 40,000
just outta reach
2-2, c'mon Fuentes.
Fuentes will lead to my death someday
you survived Krod.. you can survive Fuentes
Has MCab lost weight?
I believe so
Just some hair.

Or maybe i’m thinking of Magglio.

Common fuentes getting testy already?
Some said K-rod would

so I am going to die every time we get a closer who isn’t percy.

Is anyone surprised here?
fuuudddge
That's not what you really said.
nope but my allotment for April is used
MIne too. I am in awe of the Rick James story.
No. F'ing. Way.
Shit.

I can haz Rodney?

DAMMIT! $##$%%$&@#%$!@#
Damn it, Fuentes. >_<
thats why
good timing doesn't make your bad argument any better
fucking brian fuentes

rodney did nothing to lose the job, y did we take it from him?

Scioscia is big on players not losing their jobs due to injuries
but isnt last seasons performance

and the stepping up of a competitor enough?

Seriously, last season>? Did you WATCH last season>?
yes i did, he got a ton of saves but his era was shit for a closer

hes really not that great

In all seriousness though.

He can’t pitch 7 games a week. He’s pitched 5 straight games, there was no way he was pitching tonight.

y not?

pitchers are too pampered, hes faced what, 17-18 batters in those games?

he could’ve pitched tonight

You are an idiot.
and how is that exactly
Figure it out.
calling someone who disagrees with you an idiot

great way to make your point

It was explained to you that Sosh doesn't like to injure his pitchers by using them too long or too often.

And your answer was more of the same.

that's where our opinion differs

i think its over-precaution and he would be fine

we disagree, thats no reason to belittle me

YOU aren't the manager

so your opinion matters not

you are right in the grand scheme of things

but i can still express my opinion. and opiejeanne because i have a different opinion i am an idiot and incapable of learning, anything else?

Ok, I'm sorry. You may not be stupid but your opinion on this is.
What ladybug said.

And you seem to be incapable of learning. Entitled to your opinion, yes, but not entitled to respect for it.

Looks like

Rodney will be the new closer?

Brian Fuentes!!!!! ahhh!!!
I knew that was coming.

Oh well more Angels baseball!!

did Fuentes just lost his job?
Fuentes is in playoff form already!!!!
are you effing kidding me?

just when i was getting ready to turn in.

fuentes is officially my least favorite player, didnt high five that little kid on the way, served up a beachball there

one of the deepest HRs

I have ever seen in Anaheim Stadium

i was there and I knew it was gone instantly

i just looked down in disgust. Didn’t even see where it landed

This is exactly why my signiture includes that quote
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Why did I use my F bomb on April 1st????

go back to A ball in RC
Nobody's on, Fuentes. You don't have to pitch out
WHY?!?!?!?!?!?! SCOSCIA WHYYYYYYY???????
now he's lost it.....
Haha that was awful.

Weaver is steaming. I think Rodney is too ;)

I don't think Rodney is steaming.

He’s probably smiling really big.

no warm up appearances at all? just threw him right into 1 run ball game? WTF?
Go apologize to Jered Weaver Brian Fuentes!
Man, Fuentes is getting booed.
So was Rodney last week.
All right, pull him.

NOW.

And now he can't find the strike zone. Awesome.
And walks the next guy.
boo birds out already
you have got to be kidding me.....
Come on Fuentes
Now I'll use my f-bomb.

Fuck

NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW

PULL HIM PULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIMPULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM PULL HIM

did that take a while?
Copy/Paste is my friend.
Shhhhhhhhh ...

Nevar giv up sekrits

Hey everyone let's all watch Fuentes fall to pieces....

Nice closer Mike. Nevermind the fact that Rodney’s proven.

Unavailable.

Jepsen probably unavailable.
Shields can’t pitch ATM.
What, Bulger for another inning?
You wanted Stokes to pitch the ninth?

If we go into a 4 game losing streak...

I blame Mike. And anyone who eats at Panda Express.

What did Mike do?

Rodney would not have pitched today anyway. No way Soth puts him out there for the 6th straight game.

It'd be 5 games in six days, but your point stands.

Obviously Fuentes was the only option here for MANY reasons.

Mister Popularity

Maybe Scioscia makes Rodney the HOME closer and Fuentes the AWAY closer

I'm fine with that...

…if you mean he goes AWAY.

far AWAY.

You might have wanted to get some work in in the minors before you came back

Brian.

He did...
like until the all star break
Well 1 inning of work...

…isn’t that much. It’s par for 1 start though.

Get the DP Fuentes.
Soth will ride him till we are behind
just replayed the HR

i think that hit that Monster “M”. gotta give it to Fuentes, when he fails, he fails in spectacular fashion

What was funny to me.

Is that Victor said “And the game is tied 3-3!” as soon as the ball left the bat.

i heard that too. that was pretty funny

i like it though, why delay that call when its that obvious

yesssssssssssss
Sit DOWN.

Now…DP ball, then walk off.

There goes that option
It's still possible.
Kowbell Rivers HK up

plenty of offense there.

I'm so glad we have Fuentes back!

Lol i love the stat of the most saves but also the most blown saves

Late much, Fuentes?
already has thrown 17 pitches and one out
Rodney needed that much

for 5 saves. Well, maybe a couple more.

If that's not a bouncer, Naps gets him
As a lefty, Fuentes should really be able to hold him closer than that.
his job is to get three outs AND THAT IS IT WHY CANT HE DO IT
STUPID.COM

it says so behind the plate. HA HA Fuentes has to read that.

You know he can't, Rev. It's greenscreen.
that site is nothing but frackntes
None of Fuentes fastballs have hit 90

More rehab was required.

I'd be fine if Fuentes was our lefty specialist....

Rodney handles the 9th, Jepson the 8th, Shields if he can ever figure it out, the 7th.

Are you guys going to turn on Rodney this fast the day he gives up a run??
No.

We will wait an inning.

rodney blew one save last year andone the year before.
We turned on Fuentes a long long time ago
the moment he made the LAA roster .
dude, fuentes does this crap all the time
like in the ALCS
probably why i hate him if we win that game we win the series
No, but with an HR followed by 2BB, maybe.
Fuentes has been horrible for us for over a year now.
Over a year? Fail.
Well at least tonight will end in a walk off win for us
by wood :D
that would be amazing
by wood, you mean someone's bat right ? j/k
Sosh, get him the f**k out of there NOW!
Stokes?? Really???

Gonna STOKE the fire here, Scioscia?

ooooo come on...
Anything worth doin' is worth doin' right

and that includes blowing saves.

leave it to scioscia to use game winning situations to experiment with his pitching

Bring in Rodney and we are on a 6 game winning streak,,,,

Rodney needs rest too.
i don't know what sosh was supposed to do tonight rodney has pitched in a lot of games
he's only pitched 1 inning in each of the past 3 games?
It doesn't work that way.
Bring in Rodney and have our #1 reliever and our #1 catcher on the DL.
Well, now the DP is back in play.
86 on the fastball?

He’s hurt.

No just throws with a purse
Wow

I step away for a second…

You stepped away for a one-run save attempt by Fuentes?
to be fair

staying away from such things is probably good for the heart

He was trying to keep his blood pressure down
A healthy F-Rod II is better than this.
fuentes was a bad idea
Do you really want to see a save this way from Fuentes everytime ?

With Rodney the inning is over . and we have a six game win streak .

The scariest thing about this, is Sosh will trot him out there next save opportunity
I hope Weaver punches him in the throat

And Sosh just describes it as the players “getting loose.”

lucky break!
OK, nice pick off, 2 down.
Yes, got the lead runner. 2 outs
Wow Fuentes so now you have two jobs, lefty specialist and spaghetti specialist
Wow. MLB.tv feed just cut off for me here.
Consider yourself lucky...
Good

Lets get out of this inning

. . .

What the fuck.

Tigers up, 4-3
FUCK YOU, FUENTES!!!!
Bullshit he was out!!!
I thought so too.
Not looking maybe, better?

what? nooo!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FRACK FRACK FRACK
New Cap city is being blown up
Way to go, Fuentes. Now we're losing.
Oh nnnnnnnnnnnnnnow you come and get him.

Jeeeeeebus!!

Maybe Brian should face second before throwing home
Really?

First the kings lose and I’m watching this douchebagger of a pitcher blow the game and the streak

Jesus F'n...

ENOUGH with The Fuentes already.

Gonna be time for Wood to be a hero and hit a walk-off here!
That would be soooo sick!
YES!
If this happens Fuentes gains a little more respect, lol
Heh, too bad it didn't, then.
FUCK!!!!

There’s mine for the month. Just for you Fuentes you piece of crap.

Fucked -up BIG TIME MIKE......

Big TIME

'Cause Stokes should have started the ninth?

Maybe we should have had Santana warming in the bullpen?

When you win five in a row like we did, you expend your resources and then they become unavailable when you’re trying for your sixth.

maybe this would be a good time to finish the work i brought home...
Oh C'mon

You know you can’t look away at the disaster that is Fuentes

lucky (?) for me, i just have gameday.
Indeed you are fortunate

that your eyes were spared of the eyesore of watching this phenomenon called sucking

i'm going to finish editing this story,

and when i am done, the halo will be lit up.

it’s really that simple.

Editing huh?

(shrugs shoulders)

meh, it pays (some of) the bills.
Yeah

so does math tutoring… to some extent

wouldn't it be great if nerdiness were more lucrative?
Oh it is

but requires ingenuity and effort

About time Soth.
so glad bri bri is back
Poor Weaver

Shitty way to lose

He’s not on the hook for the L

I know, but he shoulda got the W

I’ve been flipping between channels all evening and saw enough of Weaver pitching to think to myself “Halos have this one”

This stupid loyal BS just cost us the game
I thought I was listening to a baseball game.
Who was gonna close? Stokes? Shields? Palmer?
Rodney? that guy we got who used to be a closer for the tigers

you know, the guy who saved the last few games for us? Without putting runners on or causing problems?

Who needs days off too.
I'm amused

By the amount of people that want Rodney’s arm to fall off this early in the season.

Idiots. All of them.
Seriously.

Except I’m too bitter at the moment to be amused.

you can say that again
Seriously.

Except I’m too bitter at the moment to be amused.

yeah, kind of absurd
who was supposed to close this game?
Uh...wow, golf shot.

I can’t actually blame Fuentes for that, there’s no way he should have been able to hit that pitch. That’s ****ing Vlad type BS right there.

Yeah but he put himself in that situation.
Yeah, he walked the guy on, but still.
True

still blame Fuentes for giving him that possibility.

Mathis would tagged him out
Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue
i PICKED THE WRONG NIGHT TO LEAVE THAT WHISKEY BOTTLE CORKED.
which is why i keep yelling
You can find me hanging upside down from the ceiling in the next scene.
They're....coming in too close! They're gonna--aaaaaaaaaaaaiiiieeeee!!!!!! [Dives and crashes through window]
funk that huff paint!

Charlie sings the Nightman, Ohh how I miss your sexy hands.

Oh, you fibber.
If somones is batting 1.000 you dont pitch hit for him.

like you don’t change closers when one is coming off an injury!

Then you end up with more injured closers.
the fact that he walked two hitters really pisses me off
dont be selfish guys

can’t win them all, think about how happy the tigers’ fans are right now.

lol

brian fuentes is such a generous guy!

Shut up

I’m not a Tigers fan.

+1000000
who cares

losing sucks

Quinlan’s Goofy Swing’s Goofy Posts

tough moment for humor
tough crowd (for good reason, i suppose)

but i was with you!

The Angels bullpen just ruined my lunchbreak...

Thank you brian fuentes. I’m glad I forgot to replace you into my fantasy starting lineup…

Wow. Just wow. Bye bye first place :/ Buh bai winning streak :o Buy tradition.
How much does that cost?

I Hate when Fuentes happens.

i think over half of the members here just used their F bomb now lol
waitwait

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUCK

Not me!

I used them at my house, lol Now we get more Halos baseball.

I used mine when we were talking about Rick James.
He put himself in that situation

but what a bullshit little hit that was.

FUENTES SUX FAT NOTS

Sosh left him in to earn this loss.

Come on Stoked
Can we get K-rod back?

He gave us heart attacks but did his job.

NO
How in the hell did Laird run so fast

with all of that FACE he’s carrying around?

running from the meth dealers in Westminster he ripped off.
COKE
Coke isn't a westminster drug...
only 1 run people...(so far)

not impossible to to come back here

we haven't done jack shit since the first
Had runners on 2nd in the 5th, 6th, and 8th.
Did Fuentes really blow the save?

Really.

FUCK FUCK FUCK

I have three months saved up and i will use them now
Shit face

fuentes doesnt deserve to be our closer
Fack.
I just read a real-time stat.... Fuentes jersy now the #1 selling Angel gear...

…bought by all Mariner and Athletic fans.

Fuentes and The Soth are lucky they don't have to face the New York media
FUENTES SUX FAT NOTS

Sosh left him in to earn this loss.

To solidify the fact that Rodney is the closer....lol
Hey Rev, how about an F-bomb amnesty for tonight
k3yerout
Nice job, shithead
damn

I just hope we don’t face Zumaya in the 9th

Okay

Some mofos need to score

This is why we once again need to score about 10 runs every game.
Shit, lets have stokes close things out instead of fuentes.

I’d be good with kendry on the mound.

Nice job, Stokes.

OK, need 2 runs fellas. Make it happen.

Well, only really NEED one next inning, but I'd prefer two.
I'd like to sleep some time, nother busy day tomorrow.
ugh, seriously.
the only cure for this crap

is more KOWBELL!

I think I would have waited for a game leading by at least 6

before bringing in Fuentes. At least until he had shown he was back to form. We know the answer now.

He never had a "form" unless suck is a form.

Same goes for Bulger and Shields. Stokes requires a lead of 8 or more to use

+1

Scioscia can share some of the blame there

seriously

the dude was literally JUST activated. how many save ops has he even had so far this year? get the guy some reps before you trot him out there!

i live i ride i am

i live i ride i am

Go time Angels.
Hk47 the best not letting Brian Fuentes get the loss he deserves.
Get Out Your Rally Monkeys!
might of well have brought in stokes to begin with i mean not only does fuentes cough up the lead but now we are behind
good thing we got out of that inning unharmed

oh wait that bitch gave up two runs

Who here thinks Fuentes isn't our closer anymore?

I bet you anything all we hear from Mike is, “Well Fuentes is our closer and we’re gonna stick with him”

we'll hear

Fuentes is our guy, he’s just going to need a few outings to get his rhythm back … i love when closers with weak trash stuff rehab in the 9th of a 1 run game with the big club.

agree...

not like the guy has any velocity to regain

You could hear the crowd yelling "Fernando Rodney" after Fuentes gave up the HR.
ASDF

Fuck the dinosaur

Did the average age in here just drop by 15 years?
Lol it wasn't even this bad when Fuentes gave it up to the Yanks
we didnt have a better option then

Now we have rodney who has shown himself to be better thus far.

Goodnight guys.

My computer is about to die, so make sure we pull this W out, despite Fuentes!

Go Halos!

Makes me long for the days of Joe Grahe
Saves are NOT overrated.
At the game

Fans here were pissed at the Fuentes decision and result!!!!!!

As furious as Howie's bat, you might say?
Sosh is an idiot!

Why tamper with a another closer in such a close game?

Exactly why not Jepsen again?
He needs rest too, him and Rodney have been pitching a lot lately
Brian Fuentes how do you plead?

I screwed up OK! stop it. he is guilty.

bring in the rally monkey!!!!
Too bad Weaver doesn't get a W

for another great outing by him

Q will probably pinch hit next

it’s that kind of night

don't do too much or you will pop up.
you cant be the home team, have a walk off and get a save in the same game.
Also:

High chance we use a pinch runner, now

Need baserunners first

Unless Reggie comes out and runs while Rivera swings.

Remember, Kowbell, we'll take a HR, but we NEED baserunners.
Lets go Angels
Shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit shit
F-bomb quota doesn't apply to s-bombs?

sweet

BOB McMuffin

SAGET

Sigh. 1 down.

Lets go Rivers.

well

that’s not an elite at bat

WOW Funetes. WTF. The bloop single was more luck, but the 3-2 pitch to Cabrera was just fail. Sosh just needs Fuentes for leftys ONLY. Same thing with A-Rod in the ALCS. Maybe that’s why Fuentes was decent with his save against the Twins. Whenever Fuentes’s closing, we need Rodney warming up and ready to go just in case.

you saw it coming

Mcab was on every pitch

C'mon Johnny Rivers.
Rivera, useless in clutch situations
this.

rivers beasts when nobody is looking.

like when we're down by about 5 runs
i haven't seen the guy get a meaningful hit
also

can be applied to post season.

For the love of Godzilla!
And Juan Rivera...

takes ball 2

Fuentes didnt blow this game, Scioscia blew it

4 freakin hits for the Halos? Jeesh

Should’ve been enough. Didn’t Rodney close out a 1 run ball game?

what was Soth's pitch count?
Miles and miles of heart...
I know.... Let's pinch hit Reggie! He'll hit a home run
damn damn damn damn damn damn damn
come on HOWARD!!!
come on HK47 your'e our only hope!
Were down by a run it's a 2-0 count...what to do??

swing at ball 3…great idea!

no Victor... NOT at the hands of the Tigers
No, Victor, it's not snapped at the hands of the Tigers

At the hand of Fuentes

What any annoying way to break the win streak
2-0 pitch

and that’s all you can do?

cmon sniff

Really Juan...

2-0 pitch and that is the best you can do?

there is a chance NAPS gets the win
HK47

Get on

let Naps homer

SOSH will pitch hit him
where's my 2x4?
Come on Howard, I'll let you have your refrigerator back
oh no Howie...

dont be old “down and away” howie

HK, please don't swing at that junk.
Fuentes should only be used to get leftys out

Darren Olivers role of last season.

Flush out the crap

Just another blown save

. . .

That sucked.

Hey FUENTES TAKE NOTES!!!!
I gotta admit...

I was getting pretty tired of those relatively clean games. I mean, if the bullpen doesn’t blow it, it’s not nearly as fun! GREAT to see were getting back to Angels Baseball.

Gut-punch loss.
noooo!!!brian fuentes you deserve that loss you-
BLARGH!

At least FIGHT going down, dammit!

Craptastic...

Valverde does his KRod imitation and points to the sky…

Would’ve been Rodney getting the save and getting the 6th straight

Damn it. Oh well. Start a new streak tomorrow.
+1

optimist indeed

Wow

Fuentes = Blame

Ugly, ugly, ugly.

You suck, Fuentes.

Unfair.

Offense kinda blew it, too.

everyone but WTY sucked
Well, that sucked
how does it go , " defeat snatch from the jaws of victory "
snatched defeat from the jaws of victory...

tomorrow’s another day

Do we even have to ask who gets BOTG?
Fuentes with the offense a close 2nd
i guess your not going to win a lot of games when you stop scoring after the first inning and your closer gives up two runs in the 9th
it doesn't really matter how many runs they scored they gave their "closer" the lead and he did not to do what he is paid to do simple as that
go over to Jered Weaver and say your'e sorry for losing it brian fuentes
Weave will punch him in the uterus
sosh should be in that line too
it was too predictable
Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory...

just one more service from the Blowpen

BOTG is obvious...

Fuentesaurus

thank u Brain Fuentes for single handingly costing us the game
fuentes at his best

still shouldn’t face cabrera with other right handed options in the pen.
let alone coming off an extended spring break with the mamacitas.

i blame wood
Never gets old for you eh?
And Fuentes gets the blown save and loss

Nice job.

he gets his $$'s worth
Don't blame Fuckuentes

He probably shouldn’t close at all.

at least the canucks won
FUCK that
it was cool seeing half canucks fans in the stands

200 dollar flight roundtrip + 35 dollar ticket to the game still cheaper than getting a ticket to a canucks home game.

Holy Crap

No wonder there’s large patches of blue in the stands. I just assumed they were super-fans and diehards with tons of money

Sicoscia set of Fuentes for failure

brings him in to face Detroits hottest hitter. What do you expect?

Wow</strong
Closing Fail right there. Rodney pitched 5 straight and got 13 straight outs, 1 single, then 2 outs. No walks. Fuentes gives up the tying HR, walks 1, then gets singled. Sosh needs Rodney to warm up right besides Fuentes, so at worst, its a tie game.

actually walked two
How did Bulger do tonight?

Pretty
well actually. No scores against him

Then his performance tonight = acceptable

Last night though = NO

There is a bright side; no matter how badly Fuentes pitches this year

He is guaranteed to be paid $9 million.

Now who can argue with that?

I think we can all feel a great deal of pride and truly feel that is $9 million well spent.
Why, Fuentes can blow 10 more games and I know all of us will feel satisfaction in knowing that he will be paid

Nine. Million. Dollars.

That’s a feel good story.

That's when we start

screwing with his playing time so his option doesn’t vest right?

But if the Angels let him finish 55 games this year, the option is guaranteed for 2011.

And we faithful fans will have the pleasure of paying him once again

Nine. Million. Dollars.

Sounds like a recipe for more time on the DL
