That's the Garland we remember.
Guaranteed to give up at least a couple.
I hope Harden wins 10 more games for the Cubs. Ha!
Which is OK
if our offense would be the same offense as, say, a week ago.

Not the guy in charge just not sure why you're so amped up.
All I said was we’d see what happens, and that we are a better team than we were in May (i.e.sans Figgins, Kendrick, Kotch rather than Tex, GMJ getting regular playing time, Lackey only having two starts.) I think this is a fairly reasonable assertion that most people would agree with. You are acting like this was some kind of insult. I’m not sure why.
~Till the Halo burns out...
TB
is not that same team they played in May either. They are worse for wear and yet here they are fighting an uphill battle. This is a good team and there is no 2 ways about it. They Have serious injuries right now and the club needs to take advantage of it. Yet Garland goes out and craps himself. The club is not firing at all

Upton with his head up his ASS
Seattle I would like to thank you for sucking. It allows me to get back to my roots: Hating Fremont.
Kobe tell me how my ass tastes
Amazing Play
First I thought it was going to be a homerun.
Than an easy run-scoring double. Then Rivera barehands it and throws toward 2B.
Then Teix grabs the ball near the 2B bag and tags out the runner before he touches 2B for the final out of the inning!!!!!!!
I don't think the Angels realize how important home field advantage could be this year
I haven’t seen them play this badly all season.
by Caseys Kiss of Death on Aug 18, 2008 5:39 PM PDT reply actions
Consdering the opponents they've been losing to?
Vlad, Torii, and Kendrick a combined 0-44 at one point…against the Mariners and Indians. No scoring off the worst bullpen in baseball. A choked extra inning loss to one of the most pitiful teams in baseball.
by Caseys Kiss of Death on Aug 18, 2008 5:42 PM PDT up reply actions
That's been the story all season though.
Barely over .500 vs sub-.500 teams. WAY over .500 vs over .500 teams.
~Till the Halo burns out...
Oh, I know
Nonetheless, we’re losing right now to a very good team.
A team that, mind you, is our best competition for home-field advantage…something we CANNOT lose.
And again. 0-44.
by Caseys Kiss of Death on Aug 18, 2008 5:49 PM PDT up reply actions
Bad streaks and good streaks happen to every one.
There was a period there where we had like 4 or 5 guys hitting over .350 post ASB.
~Till the Halo burns out...
I know this
obviously.
But what was my point here?
“I haven’t seem them play this badly all season.” Thus, 0-44 goes to my point, regardless of streaks being a part of the game.
by Caseys Kiss of Death on Aug 18, 2008 5:55 PM PDT up reply actions
And, it may be asking a lot
but it would be nice to see the Angels get their first 100 win season…have they ever finished the season with the best record in baseball?

True enough.
If the Rays are an east-coast version of us, he’s like, the perfect pitcher to use here.
~Till the Halo burns out...
Because he's been pretty reliable so far.
And we want to see what he looks like against a playoff team in a tight situation.
Or maybe Scioscia has just decided that Speier can’t be trusted.
~Till the Halo burns out...
all he needs to do is look at the last time speier pitched in this stadium.........
