We gonna score in this thread?
GG Joe......

GG indeed

A run, a run

My kingdom for a run

RALLY TIME!!!! Lets go Halos!!!!
Just done grillin

Glad to see it’s still close. Gotta score some runs

up to the "relief"

and the “hitters”

Please don't be such a a downer
where is rally dad
Someone needs to link rally raaaad
Wilson is pitching so far above himself it's almost funny

But I’m not laughing tonight.

i'd say saunders was the one overachieving tonight

our hitters are in a deep funk
and cj has a good era coming in, wild … but a good era

wow

it really sucks trying to reply to posts in a thread that has been closed :(

I'm sure what you would have posted was really clever
isn't it always? :P
Jack Stephonovich?
Jack Stephanino
Stephan, Jack Stephan.
cough (your age is showing) cough
Not too young.

Not too old. Just watched a lot of TV.

yeah..

but those commercials were on the air during the ’80’s. so, we are both showing our age :)

How about?

My buddy, my buddy. My buddy and me!

My Little Pony?

My sisters loved those…and hated when I’d make up new words to the song.

take the 605 at South Street

Cerritos Auto Square

HEY VERN!
lmao

those were lame, but funny

didn't he hire Larry H. Parker cause he slipped on one of the escalators

at Arlington?

He got him...

$2.1 Million.

it sucks when you type something long

what beers do they have?

Torii and the starting rotation are the only players that actually want to win
C'mon guys, gotta get it going.

Were beating ourselves.

horrible at bat
what the hell was he swinging at?
Fireflies maybe?
can we get anything to fall?
k3yerout Hula
Another 1-2-3

What a surprise

hunter with a grandslam swing
Hard to hit a grand slam

With no one on base!

Come on, Angels

Or else the Miller High Life guy is going to come into your clubhouse and take away your beer saying “Ladies, this here beer is for REAL players, only.”

I'd get his back.

No beer for you!

Torii never swings on 3-0 pitches
Yeah I've noticed that

He is one of the few that should be swinging there

Why’s Abreu
our DH? Matsui could’ve struck out twice too

matsui was heating up his power bat

so soth thought abreu’s july funk needed to play

I get it
if a player starts to heat up, we gotta bench him.

2-9 is hardly heating up

Sure they were 2 homers but nothing else

Cuz River is so much better in the field
not to mention

bobby’s .213 avg against lefties this year

well, soth was getting tired of Old and Slow

so he decided to go with Old and Sort Of Slow

he wanted more
dumb baserunning. You see Abreu getting CS, but when do u see Matsui get CS?

wonder how many wins weaver would have with that outfield defense

and bullpen … and offense

:(

in line for cy young

for sure

27?

Bob Welch style?

You mean Texas. Cy Young baby Cy Young
Only down by one run...

C’mon Hokie Joe.

Why why why is Willits in the lineup?
hey now...

he’s one of the only three hits tonight…

Though impressive maybe I'm crazy in thinking this isn't the series to put the kids in?
why not?

The old guys cant do crap

grit

pitch count, pitch watching, bleeders, and to keep the white fans interested

what's your option
Fan #32 in the stands
Fire Hatcher

I know it wont happen, but still

Sosh will go before him
r o f l

misdirected frustration.

The same hatcher that miraculously had the entire lineup batting .300 last year?

Then it must be
B-Wood’s negative mojo rubbing off on the other players.

Butcher should be canned
ive wondered

how much of the credit given to sosh, was actually attributed to his staff..bud black, joe maddon

odd

the Rays and Padres are doing really well this season. Coo incidence?

It couldnt be because they learned how to win from Mike Soth.....

nahhhhhhhhhh

eh

they were all schooled by Lasorda..

well considering the Halos have won without them........

I would say probably not as much as you might want to think.

angels win in a weak division, get their clock cleaned in post season.

not too hard to throw a bunch of money at a team and get a winning product in the AL west.

obviously why the Angels are winning the West again this year......

of course.

inept FO moves.

of course, you have a raging boner for juan rivera, so I dont expect much to soak in.

raging boner?

yeah thats it…….

Because after all…..he’s totally worthless to the team and not worth defending.

Gotcha.

Of course its easier to take the easy way out and bitch and complain about a team thats won 5 AL West division titles in the last 6 years…..because things arent going the way YOU think they should.

That doesn't look good

This is why we don’t slide at first base.

Oh, that wasn't even a slide
He didn't slide

he tripped

Fransden
couldn’t take out someone important like Hamilton or Kinsler?

^ my thoughts exactly ^

Great move wasted on the Rangers equivalent of Bobby Wilson

Paging Misty, Paging Misty
hell of a play by kendrick again
washington ran out there quick

not to check on the player, but to get close to that foul line.

Sir, you have no shame
oh Joe......

why oh why couldnt you pitch like this more consistantly?

Joe at 126 pitches

WOW

commercial for Hawaiian Gardend Casino

slogan is “come relax” … single most aggro poker room in So Cal.

commerce back in the day

was just as “relaxing”

I missed it

How bad did Treanor get hurt?

kicked frandsen's ankle then fell

didnt look too badly hurt though

Frandsen tripped him
Saunders haircut

qualifies him to pitch for the Yankees Wednesday

Joe kicked ass today
Its time to work the count

Get Wilson’s pitch count high

he throws 114-120 a game

Nolan Ryan makes his pitchers pitch

It's definitely rally time

Rally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

rally monkey + rally gome + rally soap dispenser?
Put them all in play
God

it hurts me to so many beloved Halos in Rangers unis :(

rivera to walk

and then the next three can bunt

All the Texas outfielders keep running after the catch like it's the end of the inning
yeahhh thanks Callaspo
Like the strech by Davis
Looks painful
like Jim Spencer use to do
At least Saunders seems to have deloused himself this match.
One big WACK, that's all we need
pinch hit for frandsen

he’s just about ready for aaa

We are quickly running out of innings.

Let’s hope this turns into a run

i wonder if vin scully would roll the L in callaspo.
Yeah gubi this will change everything
HEY GUBI: When you are excited about a pitcher pitching from the stretch

you are desperate to be excited about something

Speed on the basepaths...

Haven’t seen that for a while.

So after snarking about Hamilton playing too deep

he is perfectly positioned for the flyout

just more ammo

to take to the Angels to make you and WiHalofan the Halos broadcasters

Reggie out - Maicer in
frandsen .167 in july

izturis please

Thank God Mighty Macier is up
should have hit for frandsen
when the team needs some production

its looking at a CG shutout.

cluuuuutch.

wah wah wah
juan rivera called

he wants his only fan back

C'mon Mice Tits.

Just one lousy run is all we need.

come on

dont swing at freakin ball 4 mice tits

Whiffed on ball four
Oh well,

Get ’em next inning. I hope.

swung at ball 4

making it into strike 3

Over/Under

6 LSB trolls in the post game thread

Yep, over.

Let’s see where they are at come Sept. If they don’t fade, I’ll be shocked.

It is so painful to watch a team go from 9 .300 hitters to none
Just got back from a long phone call

Was hoping the Angels actually did something by now. Got back just in time to see the Rangers walking off the field again.

Dang, I hope I get another phone call to spare me

The Angels had a base runner

That’s news.

thank god

we dont have to watch the pitcher hit

It couldn't be any worse
Murderers row

this team just can’t hit.

We are very good

at playing extremely shitty

So does Wilson pitch the 9th?
god damn fransen

that looked retarded.

I wonder if Weave is sitting next to Joe in the dugout

saying “I feel your pain, man”

he's a scrappy fellow
Why Jepsen?

Is Rodney hurt? this guy has been a gas can lately.

Callaspo playing left
Nice job Kevin Frandsen
good thing it is only a 3 game serise
your counting is of substandard quality
did they cancel Sundays game??
this is not a bad idea....
They probably figure "Hey, the way it's going, just chalk it up as a Ranger win and let's all go to a picnic"
"Joe was pumping his fist, showing he was in the game"

Too bad no one else on the team is

Should have hit the douche
which one

the stATE IS FULL OF THEM
LSB

maybe we could trade joe for another 3rd baseman
Don't give them ideas
We should make a 25 man roster of nothing but Third Basemen

Then make it a sitcom. Hilarity ensues.

"That Third Baseman SHOW"

on fox not this fall

Yeah gubi, the top of the 9th will be a piece of cake for us

keep telling yourself that

STFD Kinsler
suck it Kinsler
Top O the lineup me laddies

see if we can get this thing done

get off your field Kinsnerd
Callaspo in LF

I called it here first

Maybe Angel bats should be treated for termites
oh my God

i don’t know if it is just me, but do the Rangers look as arrogant as the Yankers? Kinsler looked like he had his favorite suffed animal yanked from his hands.

There all d-bags
I think they're in shock being in first place, hopefully they'll play not to lose down the stretch
Hi Guys. GO ANGELS!!!

C’mon, it’s only one leeetle run.

Lead off bunt

Aybar!

who picked 1HR for their pregame guess?
One run. Just one stinkin' run to tie. Just one.

One.

top of the order.
Being down by 7 games is going to hurt quite a bit.
just saw a video by the group DEAD OR ALIVE

what cool hair

Please please please
1st pitch swinging always thing that aybar kid
One bloop home run for another, please
beat LA

gubi cant be happier

Their beat LA chants are just the stupidest thing I've heard
Beat LA?

What are they, Celtic fans?

The Beat LA chant doesnt work

So keep using it

Fire Sale ASAP please.

Get rid of this worthless, terrible team.

Beat Texas, I mean Arlington...
beat LA?

does the Texas crowd even know who they are playing?

The Rangers aren’t playing the Doyers. they are Playing the California Angels!!!!!

These people don't know anything about Southern California besides beaches and Hollywood
Must be a nice food spread in the Angels clubhouse tonight

They seem anxious to get to it

i hope someone fillps it
Maybe Callaspo and Aybar have hot dogs waiting.
BEAT LA OF ANAHEIM

doesnt have as good of a ring

Man this is pathetic
What a bunch of chumps
Somehow I knew that was going to happen
That's pretty much it folks...

Stick a fork in it.

old and slow...

no way to go.

another fucktastic 9th inning rally
We got 4 hit

by CJ ****ing Wilson

Texas seems to want it more
SUCKKKKKFESSSSSSSSST
Texas is going to collapse under the weight of the band wagon
Why is Kinsler bro-hugging everyone?
Only 7 games back

with a lot to go. don’t give up guys

carrier pigeon this to the dugout
Dont worry, they've already given up on you.
It is too much stress to be worried about winning this season

We’re done.

F this Bull shit

I

Send in the trolls
Well shit.

Time to drink beer. Lots and lots of beer.

And to add to the punishment

I get to hear Gubi in a commercial, too

k3yerout...we lose

Craptastic

And Oakland ready to leap frog the Angels
thats a team that has fun playing the game......
We'll never be as lowly as the Mariners at least
careful what you say...
This team needs to get swept.

Maybe, just maybe, something will change in regards to the FO.

So if Texas sweeps we'll be 9 out?

Ay-yi-yi

The FO needs to do something to improve this team for next year
The Angels certainly can't hope to win next year if they drag this same team back

Even with a healthy Kendry, there are too many clunkers right now

it's only over if they get swept

texas will falter against other teams.
they just have the halos number the last 2 years head to head

I dont see how you can expect Texas to fail.......

beating them head to head is the only surefire way to ensure they fail.

Texas right now matches up well with pretty much everyone……ESPECIALLY when they are at home.

Unfortunate but true.
