PrintFinal Score in Toronto: Angels 4, Blue Jays 5
Angels rookie Sean O'Sullivan didn't fool anyone as he allowed 4 Earned Runs in 1 Inning Pitched and wound up the loser in a 5-4 ballgame. Matt Palmer and Jose Arredondo filled in admirably for a team with no off days until September. As a 5th starter, O'Sullivan's days are numbered as Joe Saunders has thrown decent bullpen sessions and Trevor Bell has pitched serviceable for a number 5 (especially relative to SOS) ... or at least more together than Sean-O's most recent starts. A late inning comeback was squelched but the team showed a little bit of heart and soul after traveling all night from Cleveland to Toronto for the privilege of missing Roy Halladay on the mound.
The number of runs scored by the Angels was less than the number of runs scored by the Blue Jays, but totaled for the season, the number of runs scored by the Angels is more than the number of runs allowed by the Angels. But the Angels STILL lost the game tonight. In losing the game by one run the Angels continue to confound their number of wins and losses with the number that can be expected based on the total of their runs scored and runs allowed totals.
Do you believe in palmistry too, you pinheaded sabermetric mystic?

Well, SOS sucks.
Palmer deserves a chance to earn his 10th W.
Make it happen.
What do you need a fancy suit for, Charlie, you ain't got no job to wear it to.
when you say healthy, you mean sucking badly again?
We Will Win With What We Got.
R.I.P. Nick Adenhart, Marquis Cooper, Steve McNair, and Frank Grimes, or Grimey, as he liked to be called

And whichever one of you guys who thought that Palmer would get the loss, you're wrong.
SOS is the losing pitcher.
THIS… IS… ANAHEIM!!
Damn you Pythagoras
and you suck SOS.
We Will Win With What We Got.

Put Palmer in the 4th or 5th...
He is a servicable pitcher this year. 6 innings 4 runs. We can live with that…
SOS has given up 5 or more runs his last three starts and doesnt last as long.
Do it for Nick '09

Blame: Sean "Oh no" O'Sullivan
This guy is not Maddux, the magic is gone, his 89 mph heater is not fooling anyone. It’s was fun while it lasted…..
Still young, I predict we will look back on these starts as a learning experience.
We have not seen the last of SOS.
