I know the AL East is the official division of ESPN

But I’m going to go ahead and say that Joe Morgan will, at some point tonight, use the Halos’ sometimes merciless inability to score runs as evidence that they play with “heart” and “play the game the right way.”

Joe doesn't...surprise!

He doesn’t believe in walking guys in the first inning. The runs don’t count until later in the game dummies!

Let's play follow the logic

a) The Angels don’t have a lineup full of buffed up mashers like ESPN thinks they should.
b) Scioscia doesn’t manage the way ESPN thinks they should.
c) The Angels have the best record in baseball

therefore, clearly, the Angels are lucky.

Morgan just said that it's dangerous to go 3-1 on Manny because then you have to go inside on him

Then said that he threw it up to him and he put it in the gap.

a full count to the BOTTOM of their order for every single hitter. and well over 100 pitches.

by MH252525 on Jul 20, 2008 5:05 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

AND HE GOT IT DONE.

The fact that other people screwed up is not his fault, and not Mike’s fault for being unable to foresee them.

I'm not upset at the results he got but the results he was probably going to get

Are you going to say Zu that after seeing him pitch to Lowrie, Crisp, and Cash that you would have kept him in there against Ellsbury, when Arredondo was loose in the pen?

by MH252525 on Jul 20, 2008 5:08 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yes.

The man pitched great and deserved a shot at the win.

~Till the Halo burns out...

by Zu Long on Jul 20, 2008 5:09 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

So

you think Arredondo has a better chance at getting the W, but you’d have left Garland in? Just checkin

by MH252525 on Jul 20, 2008 5:10 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I think that Garland had enough to get him

And given the fact that the game was tied, we needed to save our relievers as long as possible. We don’t know how long the game will go.

Excpet he should have been out of the inning twice....

should have had the strike em out throw em out DP, and should have had the third out in RF.

by leftwing on Jul 20, 2008 5:04 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Can someone explain to my why Garland is still in this game

He goes through the bottom of the order laboring on every single hitter and they all suck

Lowrie, Crisp, and their crappy back up catcher

You’d think with him over 100 pitches the Soth would get a clue and go to his bullpen a lot earlier than he did. Ellsbury shot was a smash….

by MH252525 on Jul 20, 2008 5:02 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

He should have been out of the inning. Twice.

THIS IS NOT ON GARLAND.

Leaving Garland in was the right call. He got it done. Twice.

Again after seeing the 20 pitches before the Ellsbury ab

who would you have rather had in the game? Garland having thrown over 100 or a fresh Arredondo?

by MH252525 on Jul 20, 2008 5:09 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I'd have left Garland in

cause the game is tied and we need him to go as deep as possible.
