Angels and Jered Weaver eek out a Win in Tampa Bay
Holy Smokes... That was not fun. Angels win.
Final Score in Tampa: Angels 4, Rays 3
Jered Weaver pitched brilliantly and got the win, but it was ugly letting Jason Bulger allow the Rays back into the game. The tension was palpable among the Halo faithful When Brian Fuentes aloowed a baserunner to begin the 9th inning. The squeaky widdo Angel offense had scored just enough runs (hey, even auto-out Vladdy had a Ribby!), tough and beat the big and beaten-up Rays to take the first game of this three game series, but it was an unpleasant reminder of the 13 losses incurred at the hands of the bullpen to Angels fans.
Looks like '09 is shaping up to be the season where Angels fans are only relaxed when there is a 9 run lead in the 9th inning... and even that does not sound like it is the slam dunk certainty that it might seem.

Eek is right
This pen situation HAS to be addressed
This season just seems jinxed. If it can go wrong, it does
K-Mo should receive consideration

Jepsen sucks worse than Arredondo!
WTF are they doing?!
Thank you, Nick Adenhart. You will always be remembered. #34
Dondo is NOT on his game. Plus, Jepsen has big league experience.
I mean, who else are you going to call up??
I think Jose needs to work out his shit in SLC. Which I have faith that he will just in time to comeback in 2008 form for playoff run time this year.

Jepsen is NOT on his game in AAA
which is even freaking worse!
Thank you, Nick Adenhart. You will always be remembered. #34
let me 'splain...
this season in AAA, Jepsen has pitched 18 innings. in those 18 innings, he has given up:
30 hits, 24 runs (18 earned), 4 homers, 16 walks and 20 strikeouts. he has a 9.00 ERA and a 2.55 WHIP. he’s averaging 15 H/9 and 8 BB/9.
even though he’s been struggling, Arredondo has been better than Jepsen in every one of those categories, and he’s pitched in the bigs all year.
tell me how this is helping the team.
Thank you, Nick Adenhart. You will always be remembered. #34
hey, better he works out his shit in AAA
and not in the MLB where he causes more losses.
Your response: But Jepsen will contribute to losses!!!
Me: no he wont. he wont see the mound unless were up by 5+ or down by 5+ in the 8th….

Dondo has talent....er (tanasity). He needs a big brother.
May Preston haunt his dreams……in a good way.
RIP NICK ADENHART
Salmon in Right Field. Trout in Center. Flounder in Left.
We don't have a Bullpen. We have a Cowpen. Before we get to call it a Bullpen these guys gotta grow a pair.
Well, if you are going to go there...
Mike Carp (to be picked up from Seattle) at 1B
Johnny Ray at 2B

Thank you, Nick Adenhart. You will always be remembered. #34

Well, LHP's are baseball gold. But...
They have value in only two cases:
1) they become quality pitchers on the big league team, or…
2) they are prized trade bait to obtain needed MLB talent.
But, since the Halos are very reluctant to exercise option #2, I am not as thrilled as I could be.

Dang! How did I get a -minus-3 ???
I start playing this silly game again after getting a new laptop after having my last laptop stolen, play the game and get a minus 3 ???
