Put Kendry Morales at 1B, and move Sean Rodriguez to 3B......NOW LETS GO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is an "Angel in the outfield" and his name is GA! ps. he is lazy but not a bum GO HALOS!
The meat of our lineup failed Chone.

I’m VERY hungover. Forgive the lateness of my Napoli comment.

Hey Joe made it through the 2nd inning just fine....
outstanding…..maybe he should start game 1 lol
Miss you Kotch......Love you Trent
by norcaliangelsfan on Sep 28, 2008 1:16 PM PDT reply actions
He hit it hard...just like Howie's out last inning.
If Howie’s had fallen, we would have scored 3-2 runs in the 2nd.
Dam GA what the hell is up with him........HGH better not fart bare ass on his pillow this year
Cuz then he’ll get PINK EYE!!!
Put Kendry Morales at 1B, and move Sean Rodriguez to 3B......NOW LETS GO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe we found last year's real culprit.
HGH probably poisoned Kotch as well, figuring if the pillow fart thing didn’t work he could always play 1B…
Got to save some for the ladies.....

So if the Angels have a 1-3 run lead going to top of 9th, does Scioscia use K-Rod?
We pitched a perfect inning yesterday.
no
they said on the radio today that KRod has the day off and WILL NOT be used.
Kotch would've had that.

At best they consider Mathis an equal.
While Napoli has gotten more playing time lately, that has more to do with the Mathis slump rather than a recognition that Napoli is the superior player.
I dunno
I think they may be coming around on Napoli’s slugging prowess.
If GA wasn't so Lazy, I'd have something clever here.

Late at night Napoli came and stole GA's fuego.
If GA wasn’t so lazy he’d have fought of the Naps.
Driven into right-center field, Erstad says he has it...the Angels, world champions!
Naps average is up to 270..........

isn't it awesome that we have a guy hitting 20 homers in 226 ABs
that is STILL being sat on the effing bench?!
there’s absolutely NO reason why he should not be starting EVERY game in the playoffs. we need a win… not a sac bunt.
Kotch would've had that.
I'm not sure his knee/hands could handle every start
But he should get the majority.
He’ll be catching Lackey & Saunders in the ALDS.

he'll be playing basically every other day
and he’s only played half a season.
i doubt that his body wouldn’t hold up just fine.
Kotch would've had that.
by howiestheman on Sep 28, 2008 1:53 PM PDT up reply actions
That's only the ALDS though
1 or 2 days off can go a long way top keeping a guy fresh.
Howie hadn’t played that much but also hadn’t seen a day off from when he came back before he went down.

Only if we're carrying Budde/Wilson

Otherwise no.

why not......If mathis comes out, Napoli just moves from DH to Catcher.
You can change positions during the game.
Put Kendry Morales at 1B, and move Sean Rodriguez to 3B......NOW LETS GO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You have a good point though about my way requiring a third catcher.
If Mathis were to come out and Naps was DHing. If Naps changes to C, we lose the DH forcing the pitcher to bat. Good point. I hadn’t thought of that.
Yea, we'll see what Mike decides with he roster
I’m sure Nipples will get the majority of the starts behind the dish either way.
If GA wasn't so Lazy, I'd have something clever here.
by TheTypingFiend on Sep 28, 2008 2:16 PM PDT up reply actions
WHY? If mathis comes out the Batter taht hits for him would become the DH
and Naps would move to catcher.

there should be no games of Mathis
playing him in the playoffs, where every stinking win counts, is plain stupidity.
Kotch would've had that.
by howiestheman on Sep 28, 2008 2:06 PM PDT up reply actions
Yep
Maybe Mike’s hoping to entertain the Baahstiin crowd with a nice game of catch between Jeff and Torii.
Not to rag on Mathis, but yeeeesh—Clean it up, man!
Light Up That Halo!
when one catcher is hitting upwards of .270 with as many homers as your $19MM center fielder
there’s no effing reason to play the guy hitting .190. i don’t what the hell is CERA is… it’s beyond stupid.

Naps en fuego!
Nuclear fuego
Driven into right-center field, Erstad says he has it...the Angels, world champions!
Not going to happen
Santana doesn’t like throwing to Naps. Santana’s ERA is about 1.5 lower when Mathias is catching him
small sample size, FTW
look at the stats
Kotch would've had that.
by howiestheman on Sep 28, 2008 2:24 PM PDT up reply actions
you can talk all you want about his ERA being 1.5 lower
but when he’s started 27 games with Mathis and a whopping 4 with Napoli, you CAN’T take that seriously.

Anyone else notice all these hits are coming with 2 outs?

anybody know why Napoli isn't our everyday 5/6 hitter?
lol.
good heavens… the man is insanely hot.

ET on the hill
GREAT game for Hokie Joe, who is about to become our winningest pitcher of the year.
Kotch would've had that.
I recall Naps was in a good offensive groove last year when he was injured.
I think it was Melvin Mora of Baltimore that buckled his ankle on a play at the plate?
yeah i remember that too
Kotch would've had that.
by howiestheman on Sep 28, 2008 2:21 PM PDT up reply actions
2 hit 6 innings for Hokie Joe, with 9 Ks
Just do that 3-4 times in the playoffs, Colonel, and everything will be all right.

Q flies out to center field.
Angels win 100?
Driven into right-center field, Erstad says he has it...the Angels, world champions!
i want to jinx it.
angels win 100 and lose the world series.
this is going to get complicated.
Driven into right-center field, Erstad says he has it...the Angels, world champions!
how the hell do you know?
Just cuz we won 99 the year we won the world series doesnt mean we cant do it if we dont end the season at 99 wins. Maybe if we win 100 we can sweep our way to the bling bling, and Torii Hunter gets his ring.
Put Kendry Morales at 1B, and move Sean Rodriguez to 3B......NOW LETS GO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's not that i dont want 100
it’s that I want to give the gaming gods an offering of the 100 and in return we get good karma and a ring. cuz honestly i care more for a ring than the 100.
Driven into right-center field, Erstad says he has it...the Angels, world champions!
well no crap......I think EVERY Angels fan would rather have a Ring over 100W's
But whats wrong with both?
btw We dont need no “Gaming Gods,” we just need GOD to help out his Angels, and keep them in good health through out the playoffs.

I don't dig...
that you sit a guy to insure any record or streak. That being said, Vlad and his old daddy longs legs get use any rest they can get.
"why do you we still have quitlin?" -VladdyG
i dont think it mattered
even if vlad went 0-4, he would have finished above .300 on the year
Maybe if GMJ keeps doing well through the playoffs, he will have trade value,
and would be willing to be traded so he could play every day on another team.
