dont even care htat mathis didnt throw that
he woulda thrown it all the way to torii who apparently wouldnt be able to catch it and span just woulda scored
He homered in our 11-4 win over the Yankees at home

It's not just the offensive slump.
Speier’s been bad pretty much all year. And yet he keeps coming on in these situations. Oliver & Shields both did fine and didn’t throw a lot of pitches. Why are they out of the game ? Why no Loux ? EVERYBODY knows Speier will give up AT LEAST one run.

Seriously, let him go. DFA his ass. Jason Bulger could hardly be worse. Shane Loux could hardly be worse.

21
Speier has pitched in 49 games, including tonight. He has been scored upon in 21 of those appearances. That’s flat-out unacceptable for a relief pitcher.
scoty just lent GA his thong
slump is gone!

I don't blame you Torii
Speier should never have thrown that meatball. Anybody else but Punto would’ve hit it out.

Just got back from the game...
my wife made us leave in extras, just got back in time to see the Punto triple.
Am I the only one who is thinking Hunter tried to make that into a hilight catch more than it was. He didn’t even have to jump, just run under it from what I saw.
With that said, just cut ties with Speier and bring up the best AAA reliever (Bulger)
It's went off the wall so no... He didn't try to make it a highlight catch.

yea that's what I mean, he was ahead of it
thus he didn’t really need to jump
I don't think so.

that one strike to S-Rod was in the lefties batters box
Oh well. After that turn around I didn't really expect a win. Do better tomorrow Halos.
Blame to SPEIER.

the angels definitely dont care about home field advantage. they are not playing like a team that thinks winning is crucial.

Tell Me About It
I got home in the 10th inning. I reviewed the box score, hoping that Speier had already pitched. Seeing that he hadn’t, I knew the game was lost. Since they owe him another $9 million or so, I don’t say DFA him just yet; put him on the DL with a case of severe suck, and leave him there until rosters expand. Bring up Bulger, and give him Speier’s innings. This is not rocket science.
the bats wake up tomorrow!
Starts with Figgy

In all fairness the offense sucked quite a bit.

I blame scottnak
for forcing me to join the – ugh! – r a a a a l l l l y thread.
For the record, Hunter should have caught that flyball., He overran it and did nto need to jump. Ironically, GMJ probably catches that as easy as Hunter should have.
And Figgy should have been guarding the line closer with the winning run at 3B.
And Tex must be wondering how fast he might be able to jump to a lineup that can keep up with his offense.
Francisco Rodriguez: 194 career saves. 3 career Panthers, 1/3 as awesome as GMJ.
Wellll...
I can blame you for not joining in on the push for the win! Raar!
== Resident Point Tallier ==
I WUZ pushing for the win.
Back over in the thread where we were doing well!
I encourage all readers to note the time that scottnak officially emptied the first thread. Compare to the events on the field that tranSPEIERed thereafter. Morales is lifted, acuda (predictably) goes haywire, Oliver does Ok, and then it all falls apart for good.
Until some future game proves otherwise, rally threads ain’t.
(Somebody find acuda’s lithium. He’s still haywire.)
Francisco Rodriguez: 194 career saves. 3 career Panthers, 1/3 as awesome as GMJ.
Uh....
Post count got high. That mandates for another thread…
Don’t know why you’re giving me all this :(
== Resident Point Tallier ==
Dont worry Scottnak i got your back.....It aint your falt that Sicoscia went brain dead today.
Put Kendry Morales at 1B, and move Sean Rodriguez to 3B......NOW LETS GO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
dude, I am just having fun with rally threads.
nothing on you at all. chin up!
Francisco Rodriguez: 194 career saves. 3 career Panthers, 1/3 as awesome as GMJ.
P.S. - I actually was begging for MORE threads before game time.
One thread per inning, just to push mayheminthehood off the main page!! : )
Francisco Rodriguez: 194 career saves. 3 career Panthers, 1/3 as awesome as GMJ.
HAHAHAHA......That was actually exactly what happened.
That Lifting Morales was A BRILLIANT MOVE by Scioscia wasnt it?
And then he goes Overboard putting in Speier, dude Scioscia is a Genius uh?
Blame Scioscia not SCOTTNAK, although Infant and I were pushing to keep the old thread.
Put Kendry Morales at 1B, and move Sean Rodriguez to 3B......NOW LETS GO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I dont get the Lithium part though, but I bet I would laugh if I did.
Put Kendry Morales at 1B, and move Sean Rodriguez to 3B......NOW LETS GO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yea Tex can't be liking this
The Angels practically got no hit when Tex wasn’t batting. Vlad got a cheap single to RF, Howie an infield single. Figgy got a single to left.
Aybar had one hard hit ball as did Hunter.
