Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

L.A. Angels of Anaheim GAME 10/162 THREAD

GAME THREAD
Angels at Indians in Milwaukee - 10 a.m. on FSN
Dustin Moseley Vs. Jeremy Sowers

Star-divide

Sowers is a Lefty who walks a lot of batters that don't hack at the junk, and then gets lots of double plays to get out of trouble. Moseley gives up hard line drives then relies on the defense to hold the runners.

You Down With O.P.D.?
Quinlan - Speier - 3
(no clue if Quinlan will even be in the lineup but live on the edge a little sez I)

Random Song Lyrics
Do you take me for such a fool
to think I'd make contact
with the one who tries to hide
what he don't know to begin with

I am totally going to be asleep for this one, so the next time some East Coast yokel bitches about the games on the West Coast starting too late, grab the fogger by the throat, squeeze until he is purple and say "Ten Friggin A.M. buddy, TEN friggin' A.M."

P:  Carrasco, assuming spring wasn't a fluke.
D:  1

Also, I'm stepping out on a limb and saying that like Spring, it's time for another triple play.  Line-drive-Moseley would certainly set up the possibility.  Come on boys, make my wild guess true!

Yeah, not good timing to cap on ORTIZ
especially with this game FAR from over.

Look at Ortiz's 2007 stats (through 2):

W-L ERA K Walks WHIP

2-0 1.80 8 2 0.67

Although, Moseley has pitched admirably. (Damn, don't jinx him).

I don't give a shit if he's thrown...
...back to back no hitters. Bottom line is Ortiz is a 34 year old journeyman who will never be anything but below average. Moseley is only 25 and at least has a chance to be decent. Ortiz is what he is andwill probably be out of baseball before Dustin is 29.

Ortiz is probably getting lucky up in Mini-scrotum.  I noticed he was always wearing his heart on his sleeve and too emotional.

Further, I say again, we have no rings if Ortiz starts game 7.

Look at the pitcher...
It says he was drafted in 1986 by the California Angels....

Don't seem to recall this fella ever being in our system.  He came up with the White jizz-stained Socks.

I can see him warming up in the dugout (in my mind).

Scioscia is going to let it get to 10...
before yanking him.

But, at least he still has a shot at striking out the side!

I was just thinking to myself...
"sheesh, Shields is sitting on 0.00 ERA...wonder if that'll go as long as Donkey's did a few years ago when he was flawless all the way into the early summer........."

Bang, done.

Although, a steal attempt here is pointless, as we are down by 2.

Aybar, just take a chair out to first base
and don't try and steal.

Hillenbrand is the closest thing to power off the bench. Giving him a shot would have been the smart move.

I'm pretty sure he was running on the pitch
he might have ended the game that way if the pitch was a ball.

That would have actually made my day
and brought a smile to my face....I was hopping he would get caught steeling since we had already lost.
