Jerome Williams Quality Start Wasted in Angels Loss

TORONTO,CANADA - SEPTEMBER 19:  Jerome Williams #57 of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim has a chat with pitching coach Mike Butcher #23 during stoppage against the Toronto Blue Jays in a MLB game on September 19, 2011 at the Rogers Centre in Toronto, Canada. (Photo by Claus Andersen/Getty Images)

Final Score in Extras in Toronto: Blue Jays 3, Angels 2

Pre1_medium

Star-divide

With a chance to step right up into the Wild Card Race, the Angels hacked into quickly-ending-inning chaos at the plate and fumbled on the artificial turf of Toronto just enough to hand the Blue Jays a victory on a silver platter.

Both Halo runs were on solo homers - 1 by Torii Hunter and the other by Mark Trumbo. Hacka-hacka-hackaway allowed Blue Jay starter Ricky Romero to avoid nibbling, allowing him to throw 110 pitches in 9 innings.

Jerome Williams had a tough inning mid-game but was dancing through raindrops brilliant, throwing 53 strikes of his 90 pitches in 6.1 IP, striking out 3, walking the same and allowing 6 hits. The Angels have a strong contender for 4th Starter in 2012... and after the miserable loss in extras tonight it looks like that is just about all they have to look forward to.

The bottom of the 10th was sloppy, gutless and inexcusable on the part of everyone involved on the field, in the dugout or wearing a red baseball cap in the stands.

That is all. Kiss your season goodbye. Texas Magic Number is 5 for the Al West and the Wild Card Magic number against us is 8 for the Rays and 7 for the Chowd Sox and counting down as I type oh why the heck do I even bother to type these words that only sadistic horsepoking Rangers fans will read, laughing aloud as they recite my dirge to their illiterate ma and pa wearing flannel shirts and eating chicken pot pies on the porch under the stars that will still twinkle when every last baseball stadium has corroded away into the eons and not a soul around will understand the thing called baseball that gave early man such emotional pain.

Barring the Angels signing Pujols this offseason

I really have no interest in watching yet another season where Jeff Mathis and Vernon Wells are considered starters. Its pretty much a given that Wells starts next year in the lineup, given his 20+ homers and best month coming in September, they’ll spin that into he just had a bad first half or some shit. If Mathis is still in there hitting like 180 then what makes anyone think he won’t be here next year.

This team needs a big bat like Pujols, or sigh even Fielder. This offense is just not going to get it done.

Jim Bowden on Tony Reagins.

by clover_black on Sep 19, 2011 7:22 PM PDT up reply actions  

the sad thing is

Vernon’s contract is probably the reason the Angels won’t get a middle of the order masher. Fielder and Pujols are guys I’d think the Angels would have had a good shot of getting too. I mean NY and Boston have their 1B as does Philly. Angels would have had a lot of money and someone actually worth it, but alas we got Vernon telling us not to worry about struggles.

I agree, but realistically, the Angels need more than one offensive upgrade.

Look at Teaxs’ line-up. Nearly every batter that steps up to the plate is a home run threat: Beltre, Napoli, Murphy, Young, Hamilton. Their line-up is unrelenting. That’s the stuff that championship teams are made of.

So true. Between that giant sucking sound (Well's salary commitment) and its counterpart vacuous space

(think the area between Reagin’s ears) there is no chance of any significant short-term improvement.

Plus, as long as Sosh is the coach, the Angels will never have a lineup of HR threat at every position. That’s not just Sosh’ way. It’s small ball, it’s chaos on the bases, it’s defense, etc.

I feel like, with Arte’s resources, IF Sosh wanted the Yankee way, he would have been able to do it since Arte got here.

by sheisalovelyladyandmyapologiestoher on Sep 19, 2011 8:30 PM PDT up reply actions  

I have a feeling that Sosh didn't have a say in building the '02 team

He was barely in his third season managing and he didn’t have quite the juice he has now. One World Series Championship, two Manager of the Year Awards, a slew of Division Titles later, and now he has the power to acquire players of his choosing for “Angels style” baseball.

Pre-2002 Scioscia would not have been able to keep Mathis as long as he has.

by LAA101010 on Sep 19, 2011 8:44 PM PDT up reply actions  

Exactly

He didn’t build that lineup, but who wouldn’t want that lineup – Salmon, Glaus, Anderson, Erstad??? All he had to do is manage them and he managed them pretty well.

Now that Sosh is in his 10th year managing, and all those players are gone, and all these current players have been brought in and brought up during his tenure, you can see the type of players he really wants. He hasn’t exactly duplicated the combined power of Salmon, Glaus and Anderson for consecutive seasons (I have no doubt he could if he wanted to), and he moved on from that type to the types of Figgins, Aybar, Kendrick, Bourjos, Trout.

Arte has oodles of money to sign both Fielder & Pujols
