C'mon Jepsen,

Hold these bitches!

let's go Halos!

break out the broom… do it for the Rally Gnomes that are caught in customs…

bring the heat

Jepsen.

Dear Mr. Jepson

please don’t f’up this game for us.

Love,

Moondoggy

Let's Go Halos!
Big K

2 more please.

Boy Elroy

Need Daughter Judy and then the ball and chain to get out of this

6-3 Daughter Judy
I have the feeling that Weaver does not like Torii much

Should be an interesting time in the dugout here in a sec.

Ya,he's probably pissed at him at the moment
we can't be the only people to see that Eorii's been subpar most of the season
And Jered's an extreme flyballer
They had Jepsen on the pregame show.

His voice sounded like a cross between a frog and a bull dog.

just like Astro
Ugh I dunno

I just go after DeWitt here, he’s not all that

ugh

what in the hell kind of shit was that – Weaver is disgusted, walking out of the dugout now that his run is done… and I don’t blame him

Who's the old guy?
GA is a career 1.000 hitter against Jepsen
Do our bullpen guys know that their job,

Is to get the batters OUT?

Roll call

Let’s go psyKo, get out of the inning!

effin Ga
Garret

basehit rinse repeat

so we can't take a pitcher out because he hasn't given up the lead

or gotten out of the inning????

Sosh could have let Weave get out of it.
Weaver was done

he was throwing 87…..

velocity isn't his game though
yea but their hitters were sitting off speed stuff in the 7th knowing they could still

handle the fastball

I guess I am just disappointed (once again) with the pen.
yea the pen sucks

bring up Kohn already

they brought up another of the rodriguez bros instead

rafael

He was a little hot under th collar

overthrowing after a hundred pitches never leads to anything good…

I am listening on the radio, didn't notice that
Radio is nice about it

TEEVEE showed an angry man on the mound hollering toward the dugout.

Where did that pitch miss/
It was a little bit outside
The one at the knees?

I thought that was a strike. Oh well.

it seems with this pen

all inherited runner MUST score

crap job Jepson
Time to re-group fellas.

And slap Torii WTY.

getting nervous here
I say still bring in Francisco next inning hehe
Bon Jovi on the PA?

Don’t they know it’s Biebers’ town?

sure as hell ain't Bon Jovi's
Howie bunting for a hit?

no way to win a batting title

anyone think's Howie low BABIP is because everyone knows he doesn't pull

the ball enough, so they just have him correctly positioned

Yes

Been thinking a lot about that; they just camp out in rightish center

I think Victor needs a saying for a homerun to the pull field

to encourage Howie to pull the ball…

How about Howie Kendrick with a 3 run homer to LF! Howie went pulled pork on CC.

"pulled pork'--good one

how did you come up with that?

just figured I should stick with the food theme ;)
well, "pulled" is the key word, of course
NAPPEEEEEEEEEE
Sean O'Sullivan sighting
Naps!

Nice timing, we needed that.

*******************HOMERUN**********************Mike Napoli!*****************************
Q almost caught up to that 86
Oh YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

need that insurance baby—F Bomb due soon

If only there were 5 guys on base at the time.
Finally!

The Octuplets are on their way.

Stopitstopitstopit!
nap helping his pitcher out
take the pitch
Q trying to go back to back with Napoli
I'll take that walk.
Pitch around Q, good idea
Who's getting laid
not me

my wife is

cranky

wilt chamberlain
even inheaven
Tiger
the 'Wilt'of the millenial's generation
the entire German soccer team
I showed my roommates your video

you’re famous in san francisco now

I know

they’re saying, “that dude is bringing sexy back”

definately not englands goalkeeper
by the entire Mexican soccer team
IMAO

“Racist!”

what?

larinos are sexy how’s that racism

I thought they were "spicy"!

(Ps, your supposed to say, “Imposter!”)

Yay, we'll get to see Broxton
OMG Q FTW

LMAO

not something you see everyday
who misses Figgy's speed when we have Q
I don't miss Figgy for that

I’ll miss him in the playoff when he sees 75% lefties and hits like B Wood

Good point.

Q has a 100% success rate when it comes to stealing bases. Figgy is nowhere near that.

Well, do does Prince Fielder.
but Junebar ends the dream

thanks

Our baby daddy in to pitch.
why do our relievers try to walk lead off hitters so much?
It makes it more exciting
they need the added adrenaline
a show of hands...who want FR to close?

anybody?

anybody?

not me

I'd let Fuentes face Loney
Over Fuentes, yeah.
not over anybody
not over anybody
that was for emphasis

f’ing echo

Gotcha.
Rodney has been better as a closer

waaaaaay better than F bomb

#%@# that was so much stupidity

if our reliever doesn’t even have faith in throwing a fastball for a strike what is he doing out there, the only thing you can’t do there is walk a guy

The mariners won today.

anything is officially possible

Oh god that was scary
DP here please
Ethier made an out, bats in the Dodgers dugout better watch out
I love Pliny the Elder
Man has Ethier choked in this series
he's still batting .343 though

a little better than Q even

"half-heartedly"

Doesn’t that describe Manny’s entire career?

this is where Fuentes should pitch

no way they pinch hit for Loney and Fuentes does great against them

great?
well, better than Rodney
Rodney sucks
the entire BP sucks

what happened? it used to be really damned good

we started dumping money on older FA pitchers

rather than using our farm to produce young, cheap, good relievers like in the past..

yeah well..

isn’t that what the Yankees do? I don’t want Arte to turn into Stinbrenner

Nervous time.

Damn I miss a reliable BP.

Throw that change more!!!!!
Oh blowpen
Angels screw it up again
COrrection: Angels BULLPEN screw it up agian
This bullpen is mindblowingly awful
i imagine that

Weaver is really pissed off right about now. He pitched a pretty good game, and it is getting pissed away

Christ on a frigging bike - they're at it again
Rodney cant hit the strike zone
that's why I said put Fuentes in there

guess how many XBH Fuentes has given up to lefties in his Angels career?

Weird Beard really isn't that good. I mean he's alright, not the best 8th inning guy

But he costs like 7 million. Our organization sucks at bringing in good relievers from outside the organization.

not always

what about Spiers?

You mean Speier, the guy that got released because he was so bad?
He was pretty good in his first year here
Is one good year worth 2 bad years and 9 million wasted dollars?
Check your sarcasm detector

It might be broken or maybe you need to replace the batteries.

I'm not defending the signing, but at least Speier was good at one point here, as opposed to everyone else who sucked the entire time
The bully is always at its worst on days when Weaver pitches
He is just not good pitcher
ummm he stinks

he is the Green in our goal

Shhh....

…it’s still a sore point

Here is the Rodney we were warned about.

when Rodney gets into trouble

his arm angles and delivery points are all terrible

wow...that was a nice batter there
well him throwing a 3-1 changeup to the leadoff hitter f'ed up the whole inning

even though it was a strike…. guess what they’ve all been sitting on since that pitch?

finally starts throwing fastballs to Belliard and what do you know…..

Checkig in.

Hope Rodney can hold em here!

Now the game is close so Rodney bears down
it was close before
hes thinking to himself

this is more like it, one run

thats what I'm talking about
Whew
I thought that I saw that ball

drop between all of the Halos in the infield.. then I realized that I was in the Matrix and Aybar made the catch

That was a scary pop-up
Our bullpen makes me sad.....
dammit, Ive gotta go to the airport, they better win this!!!
move along, move along, nothing to see here
I miss you Oliver
Rodney made me miss-carry the octuplets.

But I am happy we got out of that ahead.

ROFL

got out of that ahead.

Fuentes <3 Rodney. Not.
if they were both used optimally there is no doubt in my mind Fuentes is better
I always wished that The Soth would go for matchups.

But he really is too much into the whole “role playing”.

Yah, he should be a lefty specialist at this point in his career
And my 'Fuentes .

Shit. This bullpen is so aggravating, I have regressed to 12-year olds’ chat speak.

Broxton pitching now. Looks like we won't get insurance runs.
We need them though, F-Bomb is coming in...

We need at least 3 runs here. I’m gonna beat the freakin dead horse. KOHN

Thank God we got the game to Fuentes. Now we are home free.
There is a god.
I am sorry you bumped your head there
NL makes TOO many changes in a game
Yeah, having to implement strategy is bad.
AL strategy

it is called “a lineup” … radical concept.

Broxton

the one thing I’m jealous about involved with the Dodgers

and their great parking lot
And their V energy
and their pro-active owner(s)

that pay people to wish their team good thoughts and positive energy

you deserve $100K
dude don't give it to me

I’ll just blow it on Mike Trout rookie cards.

Broxton throwing 92????

slow gun today I guess

Wow, in 28 innings 42 K's and ONLY 3 walks!

 w

Our best K/B ratio in the pen is 3.33, by Fuentes.

  Check out Rodney’s ratio ITS 1. That is F-ing terrible.

WOW Classy, Angels suck chant

I hope we sweep them

Reggie!
NOW BATTING, NUMBER 77, REGGIE JACKSON!
Reggie Reggie Reggie!
Let's just get to this
What? Abreu's foot was on the bag
he was ON THE BAG
WTF was that? Bobby was on the bag.
He was safe
Got called out for being casual
that's why GA had a strikezone bigger than it needed to be

if he was taking you knew it from section 501 Row ZZ

wtf call is that
HE WAS SO SAFE!!

WTF??

You're not the man, Blue.
Two brainfarts from the 1B ump today.
the umpiring is in fact getting worse
Stupid Umpire.
Was that Jim Joyce umpiring first base?
yeah, he Joyced it

a new verb

Why does every call go against the Angels...

I understand I’m bias but does anyone else notice this shit? We are constantly being hosed.

Angels are the Raiders of baseball

“call-wise”

well see here

the dodgers have new york roots which would explain everything

ooo forgot...
And Seligasaurus will do nothing.
Wow

robots and more robots

totally got Joyced on that one
We want replay

we want replay

Selig says the people he's talked to don't

even though polls of Americans say about 75% do

close this out Brian
DO NOT WALK HIM
ha ha, I bet our team has the worst bullpen BB/9 in the league
idk

Baltimore and Seattle’s are pretty bad

that is some fine company
just saying

it could be worse

Hard to ask mall security to catch the flasher two days in a row.
Leadoff walks are great
I have a bad feeling about this

Jepsen and Rodney were off their game

It begins...
Ahhhhhhhhhhh!
Fuuuuuuuuuuudge
thor a f'n strike f-bomb
And this is how it begins...
I get it!

He’ll walk the bases loaded, then get a line drive triple play

If that happens, I will offer to pay the rest of Fuentes's contract
quick get f-rod 2 warmed up!!!!
wow Fuentes
emplying the angels bullpen

walkoff walk strategy

The octuplets just crawled back inside the womb to hide...
anxiety kicking in
Put Q in to pitch
Does anyone have some tums?
HOLY CRAP
Sit down
nice DO IT AGAIN!!!
just like a 3 year old
Kemp should have stayed on the bench.
is "eye of the tiger" really furcal's intro song?
k3yerout hemp
I am so sick of seeing Fuentes throw a fastball or change way outside
JESUS CHRIST F-BOMB

Keep the ball in the yard. That was too f’n close.

:'(

That was scary

LIGHT UP THE HALO!
light up that HALOOOOOO
GAME SET SWEEP
Light it up

Broomed!

SA-VA-WEEP
YAHHHHHHH!!!!!!

GIDP BROOOOOOOOOOM

 Fuentes scares me at all times

First sweep at Chavez in regular season play?
It's time to face facts: Fuentes is just too damn good.
We sweep las doyers!
I'm glad for the sweep!!!!

Broomage….

and this game is also living proof that “holds” are #%# meaningless. Jeps and Rodney both got them for doing #%#%#

Lol

Interesting formatting there

Fill me up Buttercup!
UGH..........

I hate this bullpen

WHEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Light up that Halo.
Just another Dohhger loss to the Halos
Woohoo…broomage

Brian Fuentes loves playing the NL West

not so much American League..but hes got those Rockies days to help him out

Our BP is the BP of BPs
sure is clean

now that we brought our broom

Napoli just lied through his teeth

he sure as heck isn’t sleeping in his own bed tonight…… HE doesn’t even know where he’ll be sleeping tonight.

is it time to pick up

Fuentes off the waiver wire in fantasy baseball?

That was an E-ticket ride.
E-ticket?

there ar4 people on this blog who even know what you’re talking about. hahaha

5!
6
you were 2 0f the four

I heard it used in an ad recently.

clearly aimed at the boomers
I used to have drawers filled with C tickets
We always had the A and B tickets left.

Dad wanted to use those E’s first.

I’ve got some of each plus some Magic Kingdom passes.

:-)

I’m a native of LA County.

ya get something really wicked

when ya spend an E ticket

Riding Pirates on acid

Love me some Vandals.

Tough beans.

We are allowed to know stuff they don’t know.

cuz then they won't know when we are laughing about them
When we're not yellin' at them to git offa the lawn.
that's right.

you say E-Ticket I’ll always know what you’re talking about.

LOL swept those suckas on their home field

Ahh great stuff

man all that wasted gatorade.....
Holy crap! Angels sweep the Dodgers!

A win is a win

Just be thankful it is a WIN
