Print7:10 PM - SAUNDERS @ RowlandSmith or Jakubauskas
Joe Saunders is our temporary ace, I guess they are all temporary like Achilles.There isn't much more to say with an ace on the mound besides "PLAY BALL!" and knowing that we skipped Felix and a seemingly healthy Bedard and still had the first two handed to us only for us to politely turn down such gauche things as an easy victory in the Pacific Northwest
Pregame Guesses:
- YES or NO: The Angels will have a baserunner safely reach 3rd Base in any one of the first two innings.
- YES or NO: Vladimir Guerrero will score a run in tonight's game
- YES or NO: Scot Shields will throw at least one pitch in tonight's game

…I notice that in yesterdays picks you neglected to post your prediction in the comments.
Your fine work notwithstanding, I do have a question – will you be deducting those 2 points from your score?
I see red people
No No Yes
With RRS on the DL, this should be eenteresting.

Outfielders For Sale! This weeks special...GMJ - see Tony for details!
From Seattle: Yes-Yes-Yes
Jakubauskas is going to pitch OK, but my guess is that he only goes 5. The only person in our bullpen that I remotely trust is Shawn Kelley and he pitched last night (and therefore might not be as sharp were he to be used). Vlad HRs off Batista and it either ties the game or gives you guys the lead. Shields will come in and shut the M’s down like he normally does…
As long as the M’s have Batista, Washburn and Silva you guys still have hope. In spades…
This signature space for rent.
Jakubauskas should do very well
The Angels have enough trouble scoring runs (currently last in the AL). Last year I recall a few games where the Angels would struggle badly against pitchers with no track record.
From 2008:
Matt Harrison (Rangers): 7 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 1 BB 1 K (major league debut)
Sean Gallagher (A’s): 7 IP, 2H, 2R, 3 BB, 7K (AL debut, 1st appearance with the A’s)
Chris Waters (O’s): 8 IP, 1H, 0 R, 3 BB, 3 K (major league debut)
yes yes yes
Still, I wish Nick was here

Yes to the TURD POWER

Put Kendry Morales at 1B, and move Sean Rodriguez to 3B......NOW LETS GO WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yes - NO - yes
had to change my guesses, seeing how Vlad isn’t in the lineup today. I wonder what’s wrong with him?

thanks!
if Vlad goes on the DL, we better see Brandon Wood up here to DH!
World Series '09 - In Memory of #34 Nick Adenhart!
If it's a tear and needs surgery, Vlad could be out for several months
I’ll consider it lucky if he’s only out 3-to-4 weeks.
No Yes Yes
Heaven has another Angel. RIP, Nick Adenhart. You'll be missed.

That'll only happen if that one prospect is the second coming of Christ and redemption for mankind can only be achieved by smacking many balls out of the yard.
