What a great start to the day

Waking up, stumbling to the computer, and catching the 9th inning where, get this, SRod (who everyone says can’t deal with MLB pitching), Izzy, and HGH (Mr. HIDP) put us over the top. Great Win. So stoked for the day now.

Great point...

while satisfied, it might be nice to bring out a broom tonight.

Panther: Scoscia

it took him 8 innings to realize the secret to winning is getting brandon wood out of the lineup, but he finally figured it out

how sick is our rotation right now....

unbelievable… as crappy as the O has been… you have to still be stoked that our starters are going 7-8-9 innings giving up 3 runs or less

And you can LITE UP THAT HALO !!!

by BigBangRobbDawgg on May 27, 2008 9:38 PM PDT reply actions  

if if this keeps up we should give all of our starters the day off

and let the entire bullpen split up a game. that would be fun

I'd rather see Willits in LF

by UCIHalo on May 27, 2008 9:40 PM PDT up reply actions  

haha

talk about an up and down game if that were to ever happen

by ihearhowie2.0 on May 27, 2008 9:42 PM PDT up reply actions  

can Butcher coach hitting, too?

cuz he’s doing some crazy good with the pitching staff… it may not hurt to try it

Let Wood play!!!

Ervin totally screwed me with my picks….....but im glad he did cheers

i root for teams that lack offense! go halos and bills!

by norcaliangelsfan on May 27, 2008 9:44 PM PDT reply actions  

um.

the picks were what bullpen pitchers were NOT going to pitch tonight.

so we all got 3 points as long as we made picks.

HH is complaining about the lack of offense.....buy Leyland isn't too happy with the Tigers.

I guess he was pretty annoyed with the post-game interviewer. He belched TWICE during the interview. LMAO!

Ain't no stoppin' us now. We got the groove!

that team is weird

i dont see them being good for long.

sheffield is like 80, magglio is due for another injury. miggy is clinically obese. dontrelle willis is still dontrelle willis.

and their farm will be pretty pricey.

that trade was seriously a curse it seems.

Santana

Best Angels game of the year, because:

Santana gave up an early dinger. Oh,Oh, is he collapsing? Was his great early season start a fluke? Proceeds to totally destroy the kittens.

Even with Santana’s performance, no way the Angels can come back the way the offense is perfoming. AND GMJ GETS THE W.O.! HOLLY COW (copywrite HH).

DId I mention the D and Hunters diving catch?

Angels Defense. Angels Pitching. Get past that.

My thoughts exactly

If he does this a few more times people will not be able to question his mental make up

Seattle I would like to thank you for sucking. It allows me to get back to my roots: Hating Fremont.

by hauldog on May 28, 2008 9:44 AM PDT up reply actions  

I think he's mentally sound NOW...

did you see his ENGLISH interview with Jose Mota yesterday on the post-game show? It was pretty good. He was not perfect, but I was impressed at his attempts to convey his answers in English. This guy has really one-eightied from last year.

His mound presence and home-road split discrepancies are also much, much improved this year. Scioscia deserves some kudos for sticking with him and not wavering in his support of Ervin.

Go back to last year when Santana was'nt pitching so well.

When he is’nt doing so good he refuses interviews or only does them in Spanish through interpreter. Now that he is having the great success on the mound he is happy to do interviews and speak in English which he has always been able to do. It is all what Ervin is in the mood to do.

I thought the interview was great and showed off his new found confidence. Ervin’s successful comeback is one of the great plusses for the Angels this season.

by 44FAN on May 28, 2008 2:52 PM PDT up reply actions  

He thought he was treated unfairly by the media

That is why he boycotted english last year

He thought his words were being misinterpreted.

Humility at its best........

"It seems like I’ve made some contributions, had some big RBIs," said Matthews, who is hitting just .217 but has driven in 28 runs.

I happen to like GMJ...

and I hope he breaks out of his funk, just like the rest of the offense (see Black Hole and Vlad Guerrero)

TMI from Jim Leyland...

Leyland said Carlos Guillen has been shifted from 3B to DH because Guillen has a bad case of hemorrhoids. Guillen made two errors in the opening game of the three-game set in Anaheim. Inge started at third Tuesday.
