Los Angeles Angels at Chicago White Sox, May 23, 2008 5:11 PM PDT
Satan rejected my soul
He knows my kind
He won't be dragged down
He's seen my face around
He knows Heaven doesn't seem
To be my home
So I must find
Somewhere else to go

Please go away Justin Speier. Your work here is done. And take Quinlan's half-inch fielding radius with you.

your in denial that is part of the grieving process
i have moved on to rage.
I'd rather see Willits in LF
i know that injuries are a part of baseball but it seems like we are the most unlucky team in baseball
I'd rather see Willits in LF
name another team that has had more injuries then us

NO FAIR NO FAIR NO FAIR
You make an assertion, someone disagrees and the you INSIST that THAT person do the heavy lifting of research when you present NOTHING more than a leading question.
git ta work UCI
isn't that what bloggers do
random unsupported half truths we claim as fact
I'd rather see Willits in LF
no time to do exhaustive research
but i seem to remember the Blue Jays having alot of their starters out last year. oakland had most of their stars out a few years ago (before they all left for FA).
I like how the white sox's get an automatic out in the 1st
with Gary of the Game batting 2nd once again.
Game's on WGN
For you out of towners

Batters interference much?

Good fight Colonel
Let’s go bats.
Please go away Justin Speier. Your work here is done. And take Quinlan's half-inch fielding radius with you.
no such thing.
Umpires are way to professional to let personal vendettas influence a call.
you including GA in that?
He is too lazy, don’t you know.
l like that our best hitter is batting 6th
and our worst is batting 2nd and not having his ass on the bench
i think if izzy had as many AB as GMj has he would be doing much better
I'd rather see Willits in LF
I like Izzy too. But he's got a like 100 now
it’s going to get hard to keep making excuses for him.
~Till the Halo burns out...
I just logged on and I can tell you that if I had to rely on this board to know
what was going on… I wouldn’t have any friggin idea what the hell is happening at kamisky
Colonel struggled in the first, but worked through it.
Just blew through the 2nd. Our lineup is failing miserably. That’s about it.
~Till the Halo burns out...
im glad crede doesn't play center filed or else i am sure we would trade for him
I'd rather see Willits in LF
Nap reminds me of a hockey goalie. Some times he catches it
and some times he just deflects the puck out of the goal.
another seattle starting pitcher doesn't make it out of the 5th
glad we don’t have that problem
I'd rather see Willits in LF
if GA werent so lazy that ball woulda hit quinlan

QUINLAN BREAKS UP THE PERFECT GAME
IN THE 3RD INNING, HIS GREATEST PROFESSIONAL achievement of his career sorry about the caps lock.
WTF is Sean Rodriguez doing in this lineup?
He’s as close to an automatic out as you’re going to get at the ML level.
Witty .sig goes here.
He's there as our handicap, to make the win more challenging
And how's the Chili Davis this evening?

That's why he's the Colonel though.
This guy just keeps getting more awesome as the season goes on.

Mariners down 10-2
I heard from one of the retired Mariners bloggers today, Stephen Nelson… I hadn’t noticed, but U.S.S. Mariner is down to two writers from five… must be hella tough to write about the same failings year in and year out.

Seriously, We need a basebrawl where AJ tries running to first on strike 3 and naps
hits him in the back of the head with the baseball throwing to first.
That was a really nasty breaking ball that curved away from a lefty.
Righty’s aren’t supposed to have pitches like that.

Union pipefitters
Heh. A friend of mine was remodeling his condo and the union pipefitter (working for the only contractor allowed by building) who came in to add fire sprinklers blew up the pipes and four floors got trashed. Probably seven figures worth of damage, but they don’t know for sure because they don’t have complete damage estimates yet.

Hey, Ladybug
Assuming you’re hanging out, Z is 4-for-4 in tonight’s Pirates game, first time a Cubs pitcher has done that in 44 games.

I knew the M's were in trouble
when they kept their regulars in the entire game in early March so they could feel what it was like to beat the Angels.
Angels in 08!
Especially the guy they traded for him
I really think Adam Jones is going to be an All-Star caliber player.
~Till the Halo burns out...
Hey, at least he's out of the division
And then they shoved Jeff Clement down after, what, 56 AB’s?
Witty .sig goes here.
Yeah, but Clement has always been suspect.
Jones was the next best thing to dead certainty. Him and Balentien in their outfield had me a little worried.
~Till the Halo burns out...
What was really comical
was how all the “experts’ thought that trade + the Lackey injury gave them the inside track for the West. What a load of bullshit.

Vlad's smoked a couple pretty good in this game, but right at guys.
He’s fine now, he’s just getting unlucky at this point.
~Till the Halo burns out...
It's not unlucky
when you’ve been doing it all season.
Remember that double he got robbed of in the Dodgers series where the umpire incorrectly ruled a fair ball over the 3B bag foul? And that was the only hard hit Vlad had in the game? Blecch.
Witty .sig goes here.
I remember nearly raging myself into a stroke when I saw the replay
And how's the Chili Davis this evening?
No it's still unlucky.
Just a lot of it. And there was a while there where he was looking like GA with rolling over everything. Now he’s back to squaring up balls, so I think he’ll be fine.
~Till the Halo burns out...
At this point
I’m wondering if Joe told them: “Yeah, I can keep pitching, but if I sit on the bench too long my arm’s going to freeze up.”
~Till the Halo burns out...
If it's not Scottish, it's crap

Turned on the TV hoping to at least watch some of the game, but only got the last pitch.
But what a pitch! Guess I missed the usual crap-your-pants 9th?
Ain't no stoppin' us now. We got the groove!
More infuriating than usual, since with 1 out in the 9th, a man on second and a shutout going
Scioscia pulled Saunders for Frankie.
*Visiting Angels fan* Never give up, never surrender!
Even moreso than usual.
Mike took out Joe after he let OC into scoring position with 1 out. Everyone thought it was the wrong move given Joe’s domination tonight. Frankie let OC score but nailed it down with back to back K’s of Thome and Crede.
~Till the Halo burns out...
It would seem
Some of you guys would rather lose the game by leaving Saunders in there, just so he can get his damn shut out.
Who cares as long as there is a ‘W’ on the scoreboard.
You obviously were not watching the game
Joe was in command! No reason to turn this over to Frankie!
This is bad Vlad and his band of wimps!
"Thanks for screwing up the shutout Frankie! No love here!"
That’s you, a little ways up, is it not?
~Till the Halo burns out...
Np, really. I know it's frustrating. I was mad at Sosh too.
I just hate to see Frankie take the rap for it. He gets precious little love from this board as it is right now. :(
~Till the Halo burns out...
Bet Joe Saunders cares
Hey wiz …
Frankie wants $15 mil a year to make us all shit our pants every 9th inning when Shields or even Arredondo could do the same for much much less.
Saunders is making just above major league minimum. The guy should have had a chance to post a CG SO.
Don't call me Desmond
by highlandhalo on May 23, 2008 7:37 PM PDT up reply actions
When Arredondo or Shields can manage 1 blown save out of 21, I'll be impressed.
So far, Shields is 0-1 on the season. I’d be that Arredondo hasn’t been that good at SLC either.
Again, I wish Joe would have gotten the CG too, but how the HELL is it K-ROD’s fault that Sosh made that call?
