Should read:

like Kotch’s homer, Joe knew we’d need a shut out, so he threw one.

Joe Joe Joe

Shutout into the 8th against a strong hitting Braves team. Fangraphs gives Joe a sizeable WPA edge over Kotch (.465 vs .184)

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

and i would argue........

its harder to shut out a team for 22 outs…....then it is to put one ball over the wall.

Hokie Joe Fo Sho

***Me to fellow die-hard Ryan after the Angels scored their tenth run on an eighth inning Tommy Murphy home run (10+ runs = free hot wings):

Me: "What the hell are you doing, dude?"

Ryan: "I'm flapping my wings for hot wings!"

Me: "Sit the f*** down and stop acting like a drunk 15-year-old, you ain't Christopher Lloyd and we ain't sitting in the outfield"

Joe

Saunders. Kotch’s shot was a bit lucky.

by elricsi on Jun 15, 2008 7:33 PM PDT reply actions  

Hokie Joe gets my vote

Nice to avoid the sweep, but this offense absolutely has to step it up.

by Doctor Wu on Jun 15, 2008 7:34 PM PDT reply actions  

i gotta say hokie joe

even though im wearing my number 35 kotch shirt right now

by Sorbo182 on Jun 15, 2008 7:50 PM PDT reply actions  

hard to say

Joe kept their points away and Kotch gave us our only points.

How about Offense & Defense Panther titles

by ladybug on Jun 15, 2008 7:51 PM PDT reply actions  

I tho9ught of the 2-Panther system

but having just one panther award does give an overview of how amazing ou staff is – in a different season with a different Angel teams, the panthers would be distributed more evenly, so this ends up reminding us where the bread is buttered and just how special the ‘08 Halos are.

by Rev Halofan on Jun 15, 2008 7:57 PM PDT up reply actions  

Agree

This is a special/different team. We are rallying around the pitching/defense. It will be interesting to see how we finish.

Angels Defense. Angels Pitching. Get past that. :-[

Darn. I was *thinking*

of giving Hokie Joe 7 innings…. I should have gone with my gut,.

all joe

with some killer putouts on come-backers to the mound.

by Of Angels and Angles on Jun 15, 2008 8:15 PM PDT reply actions  

Joe S.

Pitched a great game and had some killer defensive plays

by Captain Awesome on Jun 15, 2008 9:03 PM PDT reply actions  

I Say

Kotchman for Panther. Campillo pitched well for them. Although I was suprised with the Kotchman swung at the pitch, that the ball actually got over the fence.

Got to be Kotch

First home run in 45 games and one handed at that!

by SoCalWine on Jun 15, 2008 9:18 PM PDT reply actions  

Saunders for sure

You gotta get panther when you throw that many innings of shutout ball. If he had a bigger lead or if the pen wasn’t so fresh, he probably would have stayed in the game longer as well. Not his fault the offense only spotted him 2 runs. No offensive player deserves panther when we can only put up 2 runs against Campillo in 8 innings. Torii looked straight up silly swinging at some of those change ups, missing by several feet on balls way out of the zone. It’s not like Campillo had anything else but a change, but we sure as hell didn’t seem to use that to our advantage.

good to see joe back in form

Kotch

2- Angels pitching (Joe and Krod etc.), Angels defense.

Kotch’s first homer since, well, I guess late april.
Saunders for the AL lead in W’s with 10
Krod keeps up his torrid save pace with # 28

Angels Defense. Angels Pitching. Get past that. :-[
