to me Haren looks far more hittable than Jepsen. Jepsen is also younger and still figuring things out. Haren had less success in the AL than a lot of people give him credit for. I see one outstanding season and 2 above average ones. Then when he went to the NL not only did he go to the weaker League, but pitching in Arizona he faced a TON of crappy teams very frequently.
Mmmmmm new thread smell
Epic Dean - August 21, 2010
kinda like new car smell
but different?
HalosFanInNorCal - August 21, 2010
Eggs Zachary
Epic Dean - August 21, 2010
and yet we make fun of Juan for sniffing his bat.
MH252525 - August 21, 2010
Valid point
agent_99 - August 21, 2010
at least he doesn't sniff his cup.
HalosFanInNorCal - August 21, 2010
We don't know what he does in the clubhouse
Epic Dean - August 21, 2010
very true.
some things are best left a mystery.
HalosFanInNorCal - August 21, 2010
note to the Halos bullpen:
please hold on to the lead and don’t piss it away?
Thanks,
from a dedicated fan
HalosFanInNorCal - August 21, 2010
Well that inning ended about as quickly as possible
for a guy that started it with 7 straight balls.
MH252525 - August 21, 2010
I didnt get a chance to reply to your comment about Jepsen's potential..........
how come you dont think the same of Haren?
Haren’s proven a lot more than Jepsen has……..but you give Jep the benefit of the doubt and not Danny?
Seems odd to me.
norcaliangelsfan - August 21, 2010
to me it's just an eyeball test

MH252525 - August 21, 2010
I understand....I feel the same about Jepsen.........he's not passing my eyeball test.
Atleast not right now.
I want him to be good though.
norcaliangelsfan - August 21, 2010
well Jepsen did have an outstanding 2nd half last year
MH252525 - August 21, 2010
well I hope both guys have better years in the future...........
those two guys are gonna be very important.
norcaliangelsfan - August 21, 2010
Hello new game thread!
kbrown2225 - August 21, 2010
yer kinda late
it’s now a saggy, baggy, varicose veined, cellulited thread
Quad Fin Rider - August 21, 2010
wait, is my webcam on?
UK Halo - August 21, 2010
Not anymore
Epic Dean - August 21, 2010
OMG...
Torii got a hit.
angelsfan7 - August 21, 2010
Barely.....
LanaBanana - August 21, 2010
This team is teasing me
Goddamnit we can WIN this division, I think sometimes.
mattwelch - August 21, 2010
WHY DO YOU BUILD ME UP
TheKingfish - August 21, 2010
ew
quoting buttercup fail
HalosFanInNorCal - August 21, 2010
Hunter isn't really a threat to steal
Epic Dean - August 21, 2010
you never know...
what sosh might tell him to do.
angelsfan7 - August 21, 2010
Unless you count "run recklessly while pitcher still has ball" as being a threat
It threatens our team, at least.
TheKingfish - August 21, 2010
TOOTBLAN
look it up
UK Halo - August 21, 2010
HA! I love it!
agent_99 - August 21, 2010
El Oh El! Me too!!
LanaBanana - August 21, 2010
brilliant
TheKingfish - August 21, 2010
He's a threat to try to steal. Most likely while the pitcher is still holding onto the ball though
~MMP~ - August 21, 2010
We need more bronze god statues at the Big A. What would be the best players pose?
Phineas_Fogg - August 21, 2010 via mobile
I agree about the statues...
I would like to see one with any of the Angels HOF guys and an Autry one.
angelsfan7 - August 21, 2010
Autry for sure
How about a statue of Erstie catching the fly ball in game 7 of the world series?
HalosFanInNorCal - August 21, 2010
one thing that sucks about the mlb.com audio stream
is that I have to hear the stupid 714-tickets commercials. I want to put a hot poker through both of my ears every time I hear that horrid jingle.
HalosFanInNorCal - August 21, 2010
I know many don't like Lodge but...
I do listen on my short drive to work. Did the show time change? Did it go off the air? I didn’t hear it 3 days this week.
angelsfan7 - August 21, 2010
I like Lodge
Maybe he’s on vacation?
LanaBanana - August 21, 2010
I like his segment "I wanna talk trash about...."
agent_99 - August 21, 2010
ok how's 949-tickets sound?
Phineas_Fogg - August 21, 2010 via mobile
slightly less annoying
as long as Roger Lodge isn’t in the picture
HalosFanInNorCal - August 21, 2010
too many walks
angelsfan7 - August 21, 2010
8 walks today...........
lucky the score isnt worse.
norcaliangelsfan - August 21, 2010
yup
angelsfan7 - August 21, 2010
Nice job Rodney
~MMP~ - August 21, 2010
I don't even have to look
to know with 99% certainty the Angels have the worst OBP allowed to leadoff hitters against our bullpen.
MH252525 - August 21, 2010
This Valencia guy
not impressing me.
MH252525 - August 21, 2010
can you wait till the end of the series please?
UK Halo - August 21, 2010
very true
sorry, if he hits a game winning homer, i’ll put a buck in everyone’s paypal account
MH252525 - August 21, 2010
pls send to jeff.mathis@mlb.com
UK Halo - August 21, 2010
lol n1
MH252525 - August 21, 2010
The dude is OPS 1.115 the last week......
that is nuts.
norcaliangelsfan - August 21, 2010
Go Rodney!!
LanaBanana - August 21, 2010
Go Angels.
Hello, and goodbye!
Slasher52 - August 21, 2010
If we win today we 7 back
still a mountain, but damn if Texas does not seem to just be falling apart.
Rev Halofan - August 21, 2010
won 1 of last 6
UK Halo - August 21, 2010
yea now all they need is Tony Phillips to get caught doing crack at a whore house
and they will have officially copied us
MH252525 - August 21, 2010
that wasn't in 95
Phineas_Fogg - August 21, 2010 via mobile
yea I know
but it was the scenario I see most likely happening to the Rangers
MH252525 - August 21, 2010
Ron Washington has volunteered for that
UK Halo - August 21, 2010
I haven't been paying that much attention to how far back the Halos are
I thought that we would be maybe 6 back if the blowpen holds on to the lead, but I was corrected pretty quickly :)
HalosFanInNorCal - August 21, 2010

MH252525 - August 21, 2010

UK Halo - August 21, 2010
Objection sustained
agent_99 - August 21, 2010
Mathis with a triple!!!

Some days it just looks so easy....
LanaBanana - August 21, 2010
Average above .200 again
~MMP~ - August 21, 2010
you know how people go to the games
with signs that they can change on the fly for a guys average, I feel like doing one for Jeff. Is this wrong of me?
MH252525 - August 21, 2010
do it.
angelsfan7 - August 21, 2010
oh man..........
that made me chuckle
norcaliangelsfan - August 21, 2010

Holy shit! How can these be the same guys as yesterday?
Hi guys
red floyd - August 21, 2010

HalosFanInNorCal - August 21, 2010

maybe it’s the AWESOME day Bourjos has had.
angelsfan7 - August 21, 2010
Hello. How's the missus?
agent_99 - August 21, 2010
Good. We just got back from Oxnard where we went for fresh crab.
Little hole in the wall joint “H C Seafood”, corner of Victoria and Channel Islands

If it’s worth the drive, we’ll go there

angelsfan7 - August 21, 2010
Fuenteswagger!!!
Angels_48 - August 21, 2010
He's showing a bit of swagger, isn't he?
Deservedly, given the way he’s pitched over his last 20 or so outings.
red floyd - August 21, 2010
Besides, to misquote Tom Skerrit from Top Gun
That’s pretty arrogant. I like that in a closer.
red floyd - August 21, 2010
RAWR! RAWR!! RAWR!!!
