Random Clint Eastwood Quote:
Harry Callahan: I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

I loved how they talked about how Pinella sent Bradley to bed w/out dinner last night
Bradley has an attitude – NO DUHHHHH
i really can't stand batters
that crouch down when a pitch comes in

Tough DP there...
that is why Eybar bats 2nd right there!
Any more silly questions?
Miss you Nick...! RIP
yeah, who wrote up the line up today - and what drugs where they taking?

ya know...
I love Sosh, but to put Aybar in the 2nd spot – that’s INSANE
by angelsfan777 on Jun 27, 2009 1:16 PM PDT up reply actions
izturis >aybar
vs lefties
or batting 2nd
or all together

It would make him playing a LOT more palatable if he would bat him 8th/9th...
I had to resign myself to the fact that he is starting everyday whether I liked it or no…
Miss you Nick...! RIP
other than a .270 avg
he is worthless

i didnt want to overshoot it
but i knew it was bad

That was the best throw I think I have ever seen Naps make...
right on the MONEY!
Miss you Nick...! RIP
it was a beauty
catch and and drop the glove 2 inches to apply tag
harder than it looks, i mean, i’ve done it before, but not at that level :\

Hey Rev,
Heard you on the radio the other day… Nope I wasn’t listening to “all things Michael Jackson”.

so, he obviously wanted no piece
of the last two hitters
by Quinlan's Goofy Swing on Jun 27, 2009 1:29 PM PDT reply actions
same script as last night
pitcher looks horrible 1st inning
then the team puts a crooked number up to take the pressure off
by Quinlan's Goofy Swing on Jun 27, 2009 1:30 PM PDT reply actions
that inning lacked the clicking
that scioscia speaks of

Remember John,
For every walk, every run you allow, Krista loses one new imported crystal chandelier in that future mansion somewhere when you sign that big contract next year, and she will be pissed.
I am the Iron Man
roll call
lets get it Angels!!!

good throw by tori

2 feet offline is better than double digits though

Talking about Naps' HR to LF...
now the 4th longest at Chase Field, then Bank 1 ballpark
Miss you Nick...! RIP
when will we stop seeing Quinlan
I don’t mind suckage, but when you look like an amateur and suck … you shouldn’t get starts
by Quinlan's Goofy Swing on Jun 27, 2009 2:22 PM PDT reply actions
who knows
all I know is Q has an OPS of around 400 against lefties this year
and B Wood last time I checked like a week ago had on OPS over over 1100 against lefties in AAA.
Q getting at bats
runs hand in hand with mickey hatcher still having a job

can't wait to see the getaway day lineup
this was an obvious punt, but how does he top it?
Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaathis

Wish I could watch this one
Really hate when MLB doesn’t show the games.
im getting it
and i get the fox feed on my box too
so i get to see quinlan swing twice as many times as usual
i should probably turn the tv off

Quinlan has been a NEGATIVE value player for 3 straight years
FanGraphs has good stats with regards to player value (Wins Above Replacement)
Bottom line is that Quinlan has been WORSE than a AAA player for three straight seasons.
Thanks
I try saying he’s been bad for 3 years and people just say he’s been in a slump. The dude just flat out sucks and it’s not like the Angels don’t have much better much more deserving options
if you can't excel as a right hander who gets to solely face lefties
then you shouldn’t be on a major league roster.
by Quinlan's Goofy Swing on Jun 27, 2009 2:37 PM PDT up reply actions
Exactly.
I hate to be blunt about Q, but he’s AWFUL. Every metric screams SUCK (SLG, ISO, wOBA, etc). Unlike GMJ, the Angels are NOT on the hook for a huge amount of money to Q. It’s bizarre how they hang on to him.
by Fan Since 1981 on Jun 27, 2009 2:40 PM PDT up reply actions
OMGF
That should make hilights for like 20 years
yea a bunt single
pitcher threw past 1B as 2B was slow to get there, Aybar was running to 3rd and Upton airmailed 3B
Im REALLY digging Aybar's aggressive running lately....
Do it for Nick '09

i like how he looks behind himself while he runs
guy is not bright
by Quinlan's Goofy Swing on Jun 27, 2009 2:42 PM PDT up reply actions
Forget using Vlad for Lackey
I’d use him right here
kendry can switch hit
and look like a professional.
Kendrick can play 1st base, and I’m sure he would love to focus solely on hitting against lefties.
by Quinlan's Goofy Swing on Jun 27, 2009 2:52 PM PDT up reply actions
brown
would be worse, looking at his salt lake numbers this year

Fox's Camera not centerd on the strike zone
I mean,,, who gives a fling frack about a watchable television broadcast…
that wasnt even close the kzone
"Boy, did he drop a huge deuce in the stands!" (About a two-run homer)
Rex Hudler
Pitcher batting into a groundout
But Fox has cut away to a gabfest between umpires with a hidden microphone… HMMMMM… could it be that pitchers batting is so stupidly outdated that it s not even considered to be broadcast-worthy?
wow figgins almost killed that

My comment is more about the futility of Q being allowed to bat
I’m guessing this is one of The Soth’s mandatory rest days that he has for players.

Just don't jinx our guys.
The DL is getting to be longer than the roster. We can’t lose anyone else.
