I was checking out a movie cause it looked like we had the game won…what happened? (no don’t tell me I rewound my DVR and saw the carnage first hand yeech)
I’m far to drunk to deal with the journey back on the tube if the Fuentesaur coughs this one up (and far too cold and wet to put up with extra innings)
first
DAD OF VLAD - May 20, 2010
if Rodney gets out of this
and Fuentes comes in to save
I will be so pissed
TheKingfish - May 20, 2010
Get your anger management manual close at hand...
sothball - May 20, 2010

red floyd - May 20, 2010
cmon Rodney
get nasty
BigBangRobbDawgg - May 20, 2010
Let's Go Rodney!
44FAN - May 20, 2010
8th
Fred Fredrix - May 20, 2010
Yes, it is the 8th
red floyd - May 20, 2010
I noticed that
Fred Fredrix - May 20, 2010
Where the hell did that miss?
red floyd - May 20, 2010
oh no.....
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
oh no.....
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
Come on Rodney, AJ can't be a hero
~MMP~ - May 20, 2010
I think we get him if Rodney doesn' t tip it
red floyd - May 20, 2010
yup
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
FU Pureshitski
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
Hit him. I don't care if it scores a run.
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Dammit!
Why did I waste my F-bomb earlier this month!
halofolife - May 20, 2010
Oh god
~MMP~ - May 20, 2010
FUCK PURESHITSKI
(there’s my f-bomb)
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Sigh
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
i fucking hate Pureshitski
thank god for the ground rule double
[May F-bomb used]
TheKingfish - May 20, 2010
Freakin' ump
red floyd - May 20, 2010
What the #@^&%(&^!
Our BP SUCKS!
halofolife - May 20, 2010
Wow
Ground rule double? Are you freaking kidding me?
Slyintine - May 20, 2010
Good thing. Pierre scores if it wasn't.
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Hey, better than a regular double and risking the bases clearing
TheKingfish - May 20, 2010
Our bullpen is just sooo reliable this year...
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
WE SUCK - can't even hold a 5 run lead
angelsfan7 - May 20, 2010
against the weakest hitting team in the AL
Fred Fredrix - May 20, 2010
It's amazing that a team with a payroll this high has a bullpen that can't hold a 5 run lead.
And by amazing, I mean “fire the front office”
Carl Johnson - May 20, 2010
Fucking Jepsen
UCIHalo - May 20, 2010
god our bullpen sucks
BigBangRobbDawgg - May 20, 2010
Our two best relievers give up at least 4.
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Of course Soth fail again
Rodney comes in to face the lefties…..
guess who has a 237 OPS this year against lefties?
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
the "Stache"
Fred Fredrix - May 20, 2010
yea but Soth is too fucking idiotic to use players in roles that
actually fucking suite them
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
Jepsen's ERA just doubled
piece of shit
UCIHalo - May 20, 2010
Soth fail
Fuentes has value but his value is wasted by Soth
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
whoa
It goes
Jepsen
Rodney
then Fuentes
There is no other alternative.
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
none whatsoever
Fred Fredrix - May 20, 2010
who gave him those @#%@#%
flowcharts…. if I ever find them I’m going to put them in the fireplace….
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
Can a damned strike!
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
is this ump fucking taking a nap ?
BigBangRobbDawgg - May 20, 2010
F**k you, A.J.
Telling Pierre to stay at home.
Rev: did the f-bomb thread count as our f-bombs for the month?
Figgi4life - May 20, 2010 via mobile
He did that? On a ground-rule double?
red floyd - May 20, 2010
seriously?
Does he try hard at being a douche, or does it come naturally.
Or is he just an idiot
TheKingfish - May 20, 2010
Yes. He seriously did it.
He was waving at him to stay at home.
Figgi4life - May 20, 2010 via mobile
Rodney should have hit him.
It also woud have saved a run
red floyd - May 20, 2010
What a douche
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Are you kidding me
TheKingfish - May 20, 2010
Come on!
We got 2 friggin’ outs!
halofolife - May 20, 2010
does rodney not want to throw strikes
UCIHalo - May 20, 2010
the ump is squeezing them
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
What pisses me off the most is that relief is SO easy to find
9/10 teams have perfectly good league average arms all over their farms. We, apparently, don’t have them at the major league level.
Carl Johnson - May 20, 2010
Well, there's that BABIP regression
Suboptimal was talking ’bout.
LAASurfin - May 20, 2010
ehh
ricochet off his glove and a wind assisted liner … ehhh….
Rev Halofan - May 20, 2010
exactly
shit happens. And that’s exactly why a .186 pitcher’s BABIP is not sustainable.
LAASurfin - May 20, 2010
oh thank God!!!!
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
Oh thank god
Slyintine - May 20, 2010
Ugh, finally.
Score some goddamned runs before Fuentes comes in to shit the bed.
TheKingfish - May 20, 2010
We need >3 runs to win this game
Carl Johnson - May 20, 2010
ground rule double
is a pitcher’s best friend
Rev Halofan - May 20, 2010
please score Angels...
haha what do you know… Konerko will be leading off in the 9th
BigBangRobbDawgg - May 20, 2010
Well, Rodney threw a lot of pitches, and let 2 inherited runners score
Maybe Soth will keep him in…. That seems to be his methodology
red floyd - May 20, 2010
I see the blowpen was hard at work, eh?
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
trAdition
TheKingfish - May 20, 2010
Arson squad strikes again.
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Time for Fuentes to finish the job?
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
DON'T SAY THAT!!11
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
might as well
desecrator09 - May 20, 2010
Now all we got to do is score 20 runs...
And then give the ball to Fuentes…who’ll surrender 21 runs.
halofolife - May 20, 2010
We're DOOMED .
Ed@northridge - May 20, 2010
we need 5 more runs
wait 10 more
wait we need a miracle cause we don’t have a pitcher
angelsfan7 - May 20, 2010
Lrt's Go Angels!
44FAN - May 20, 2010
well at least fuentes will only kind of be responsible for losing this one
ihearhowie2.0 - May 20, 2010
yea Soth will be mostly responsible.....
237 OPS against lefties and we have him facing whoever is due up including pinchhitters, when he’s our only lefty in the pen……
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
Haha, my TV froze
it can’t handle the fail
TheKingfish - May 20, 2010
REGGIE REGGIE REGGIE
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
OK this is not good
I was checking out a movie cause it looked like we had the game won…what happened? (no don’t tell me I rewound my DVR and saw the carnage first hand yeech)
kbrown2225 - May 20, 2010
We took Ervin out of the game
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
there's the rub
salmonforever - May 20, 2010
Aren't we only allowed to say "Fuentes" once a month?
Fred Fredrix - May 20, 2010
dont doubt the stache to close games
jr714 - May 20, 2010
Well i'm out,
Here’s to hoping we can hold ’em. Go Halos!!!
halofolife - May 20, 2010
Time to get Bulger up as this goes into extra innings.
44FAN - May 20, 2010
walkoff?
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
Fuentes vs. Konerko......
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
what the hell ump!!!
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
that's been a ball all night long!!!
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
this Chicago announcers are the worst.
UCIHalo - May 20, 2010
True statement
Suboptimal - May 20, 2010
tight strike zone suddenly gets fat
Rev Halofan - May 20, 2010
you saw that too????
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
So scared
Let’s score 3 runs this inning.
Figgi4life - May 20, 2010 via mobile
How come that wasn't a strike for us?
red floyd - May 20, 2010
yeah Rodney AND Jepsen hit that very spot a few times last inning
BigBangRobbDawgg - May 20, 2010
swing Aybar... or else you'll be out
BigBangRobbDawgg - May 20, 2010
Does Soth know he's allowed to let Rodney face Konerko?
and then bring in the Fuentes?
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
Probably not
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
good eye bar
Fred Fredrix - May 20, 2010
I'm hating this umpire
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
Always run on Pierre
always.
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
nicely placed Aybar
BigBangRobbDawgg - May 20, 2010
Should have challenged Juan Peashooter
Suboptimal - May 20, 2010
yes!
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
First base??
LAASurfin - May 20, 2010
ALL ABOARD THE AYBAR TRAIN
44FAN - May 20, 2010
thank you Victor
call out the Angels on their stupid play…… far too much of it for my likings with our MOTY…….
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
At least it opens up the opportunity to get caught stealing second
Suboptimal - May 20, 2010
yea he's going for the CS cycle?
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
I''d love to see him get CS trying to steal first
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Did he wait if the ball was gonna get caught before he ran ? 1st base wtf .
Ed@northridge - May 20, 2010
At least he got on base
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
not so much as wait
as run 85% watching what was going to happen the entire way….
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
Is Aybar braindead?
Suboptimal - May 20, 2010
Aybar almost an idiot
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
He's an idiot
He’s just lucky he wasn’t an out.
Suboptimal - May 20, 2010
Don't be an idiot Aybar
red floyd - May 20, 2010
helloooo can we count to 3
angelsfan7 - May 20, 2010
Aybar took his counting lessons from Budde
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Who took his lessons from trot nixon
(threw a ball into crowd several years back……..with 2 outs)
Figgi4life - May 20, 2010 via mobile
We've got such a smart team.
bc56274 - May 20, 2010
it all starts at the top of the flowchart.....
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
include Soth on the A - TEAM .
Ed@northridge - May 20, 2010
Didn't one of the coaches almost paint himself to death?
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
Hatcher?
bc56274 - May 20, 2010
lol n1
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
bullpen woes infect the entire team
BigBangRobbDawgg - May 20, 2010
'Stache up, apparnetly.
red floyd - May 20, 2010
that trashy stash
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
Walk him and let Torii hit
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Fuentes with a 1 run lead
~MMP~ - May 20, 2010
I need my Maalox
red floyd - May 20, 2010
oh boy... hold on yer butts
BigBangRobbDawgg - May 20, 2010
Well
ohgod. The stache is in.
Slyintine - May 20, 2010
oh boy........I feel my ulcer
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
oh gawd here he comes
Fred Fredrix - May 20, 2010
Regardless of if the gets Konerko out can we all agree
it’s insane to let him face him????
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
It's pretty much insane to trust him with a one-run game no matter who is batting
Suboptimal - May 20, 2010
:(
Me be scareded.
Figgi4life - May 20, 2010 via mobile
me too
angelsfan7 - May 20, 2010
Heart meds .....check .
blood pressure pills ….check .
Ed@northridge - May 20, 2010
Maalox, check.
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Great
Fuentes coming in to face Konerko, probably Rios, then Quentin. Hope the wind is blowing in from left.
Suboptimal - May 20, 2010
it looked lit was on
pierzynski’s GR2
Rev Halofan - May 20, 2010
@#%@#
I would keep Rodney in just to keep Kotsay in the game over Rios.
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
Spot on.
Figgi4life - May 20, 2010 via mobile
Get yo popcorn
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
Torii, Kendry, Matsui
will be up for us in the 10th
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
I doubt there's a 10th
~MMP~ - May 20, 2010
I have faith
that we can win this one
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
You assume it gets to the 10th
Slyintine - May 20, 2010
yes
Anaheim71420 - May 20, 2010 via mobile
i hope it'll get that far
desecrator09 - May 20, 2010
Thank God we have a shut em down closer that we all have faith in and can rely on
Not
Anaheim71420 - May 20, 2010 via mobile
Ha!
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
get your f*cks ready!!
desecrator09 - May 20, 2010
Used mine on Pure-shit-ski
red floyd - May 20, 2010
For my health ...I think I'll just watch ' My name is Earl "
Ed@northridge - May 20, 2010
Anyone think
that Fuentes might’ve been more useful last inning then now? But no, Rodney has to pitch the 8th.
phoenix15 - May 20, 2010
that 6.52 era is comforting
Fred Fredrix - May 20, 2010
Can. Not. Look.
LAASurfin - May 20, 2010
This must be the worst bullpen in the league
I’m far to drunk to deal with the journey back on the tube if the Fuentesaur coughs this one up (and far too cold and wet to put up with extra innings)
The Limey - May 20, 2010 via mobile
tne Dbacks have the worst although Fuentes would fit perfect with them
aldo H - May 20, 2010
Like London, eh?
LAASurfin - May 20, 2010
here comes my nightly heart attack
yeswecan - May 20, 2010
Wood in
Good. Because we don’t need errors at this point
Figgi4life - May 20, 2010 via mobile
Wood is in, we're saved.
44FAN - May 20, 2010
OMG its Fuentes
Barf bags are at the ready
blast21dave - May 20, 2010
Good start
~MMP~ - May 20, 2010
That first pitch is comforting
Slyintine - May 20, 2010
All my panther points on game tying homerun
Anaheim71420 - May 20, 2010 via mobile
and I gladly give them all for the save
Anaheim71420 - May 20, 2010 via mobile
the stache is cant even throw strikes
jr714 - May 20, 2010
he's too scared
Fred Fredrix - May 20, 2010
If throwing baseballs to the backstop was a stat
I bet Fuentes would be leading the league.
Suboptimal - May 20, 2010
Safe bet
~MMP~ - May 20, 2010
Would reflect bad
on the catcher though
blast21dave - May 20, 2010
I don't know how this is possible, but
his moustache looks ’girly".
Girly-stache.
raskul - May 20, 2010
That's just nasty
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
Just walk him
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
If you were like Torii Hunter
how can you not be steaming….. this is not smart baseball and I’d have to think all the Angels notice it and lose respect for Soth by the minute…..
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
Oh god
~MMP~ - May 20, 2010
Oh hey
Fuentes can’t throw strikes. What else is new?
Slyintine - May 20, 2010
starts him off 3-0
im flaborgasted (or however the hell you spell it
desecrator09 - May 20, 2010
3 and 0
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
3 and 2
Figgi4life - May 20, 2010 via mobile
I never like it when fuentes
Has to “make them hit” his fastball…
Figgi4life - May 20, 2010 via mobile
all 87 MPH of it
ryanfea - May 20, 2010
Has to "
makeLET them hit" his fastball…SportsChicken - May 20, 2010
like a bating cage machine
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
Especially when
“them” = Paul konerko
Figgi4life - May 20, 2010 via mobile
better stache Fuentes or Adam Morrison ?
Ed@northridge - May 20, 2010
Tom Byron
angelfan1954 - May 20, 2010
alanis morissete
firebird81 - May 20, 2010
Morrison
unless his stache causes him to blow saves or lose games for us too
blast21dave - May 20, 2010
Morrison
cuz his doesnt look like girly peachfuz
desecrator09 - May 20, 2010
So when he throws offspeed stuff it's in the dirt or way outside
and when he throws a fastball it’s 90mph…… someone explain to me again why he’s pitching
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
one out
angelsfan7 - May 20, 2010
Fuuuu...
LAASurfin - May 20, 2010
1 out
~MMP~ - May 20, 2010
One down
red floyd - May 20, 2010
why isnt he on base??

Who else thought that was gone?
Anaheim71420 - May 20, 2010 via mobile
Nobody.
Obvious pop-up
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Do we RAWR for that?
red floyd - May 20, 2010
Speaking of,
Did 44FAN seriously flag that person for “impostering”?

You’re a braver man than I am, Gunga DIn!!!
red floyd - May 20, 2010

Something worth sharing
I bought MLB10 at the start of the season and just barely started playing it during the OAK series.
Every day I play the game, the Angels win.
I didn’t play the days we played the Rangers and the Angels lost.
I got about a half hour of playing time today before class.
Thoughts?

You sir
are now tasked with playing one full game during every Angel game from here till Nov.

I'll do my best
SportsChicken - May 20, 2010

I made Mike Trout, he rocks, not as much as at Cedar Rapids in real life, but he rocks!
MH252525 - May 20, 2010
Yeah that's the mode I'm playing
I have a 3rd baseman, a closer and a starting pitcher.
