LA Angels of Anaheim GAME 98/162 GAME THREAD
GAME THREAD: Choakland She-Wolffs of Fremont @ Angels - 7 PM
Chad Gaudin vs Bartolo COLON
I enjoy this rivalry.
Random Song Lyrics
Every dinner was crummy
nothing was on t.v.
I was ready to pack it up
our heads were so achey
You didn't mean anything to me
Wonder if Bartolo is looking over his shoulder at Dustin Moseley...
Post Your OPD Picks in this thread before Game time
Bonus OPD Guess: Name an Angels Pitcher besides Colon who will throw a pitch in this game.
Guessing "Nobody" means you think Bartolo will pitch a complete game or there will be a rainout or Iran will nuke the stadium prior to Bartolo's removal as pitcher of record.

I don't know if they're "fast"
The bottom line
Stomache ache?
I can forgive Santana for being young, but Colon has no excuse for sucking. If he's injured, then its still his fault for not saying so.
Good AB, Garret
talk about frustration
Colon's delivery was a frickin' mess
It's sad; Bartolo's a warrior (remember his reluctance to come out of Game 5 in the '05 ALDS?), but the body just won't follow his commands, it seems.
To clarify
to clarify even further
this oakland offense is gross

Does Rex know that OBP and BB aren't the same?
Yes!!!
The exclamation points are a mistake
WoOoOoHoOoOO NAPOLI!!!!
Four more of those
I love ya duckie
More a fear than anything else
FYI
That "may" have been out
Ay cara.
Can we just stop sending Colon out there, please
His elbow
I've never been more thankful for an injury before
Not necessarily
hey man...
Would you rather him be pitching or not?
Take your pick.
Also, way to go GA for not really reaching for a ball you could have had. Way to go.
It's possible
Now What???

uh huh
by ANewFoundThrice on Jul 23, 2007 8:27 PM PDT reply actions
leave Mosley out there
Bad time to give up sniffing glue
Looks like Dustin gets the hook. And the Angels suddenly have problems in both the rotation (for the balance of the season) and the bullpen (for the balance of this series, at least).
Hey, I know! Let's call up Kasey Olenberger!
Should that fan have let Garret try for the ball?
Garrett wouldn't have caught it
I was there...
GA had a bad jump on that ball.
by Downing Rules on Jul 24, 2007 12:05 AM PDT up reply actions
Can we bring up Adenhart yet?
Is anyone surprised by Moseley's fall?
Now, I think he's better than that. But he's a mop-up guy, no more, no less, at this point.
That could work
I could have caught that......I've robbed 3 HRs
i mean
by ANewFoundThrice on Jul 23, 2007 8:31 PM PDT reply actions
Wow
Bootcheck
Doesn't help that Dusin had to pitch yesterday.
In that case, we should just bring up Steven Shell
Three True Outcomes Hero has two of the good kind
we gotta eventually score more than 1 in an inning
Or, better yet, we could call up ...

God help me if what I think is going to happen ..
I feared a patent OC twin killing
woohooooooo
swing that BIG BAT!!
outta here!!!!!!!
GOOOO VLADI!!!
And, the Vladiator ...
that pitch
Vladi trying to do too much
It would be nice

Garret did what he always did
He never saw a pitch he didn't like
fuckin' Gagne
Not to worry
I blame myself
Wow .. see what happens when you guys actually
OBP is not overrated folks!
Non-save situation
4 runs on BBs
Championship teams do whatever it takes.
WOOT WOOT

Um, strike zone?
ump jacked up vlad too
The fact that we didn't even get a hit with the
heart of the line up
seattle lost!!
hate to sound greedy
They're both scuffling
And it's only the 5th.

But hopefully we can still get things a stirrin'.

I thought Garret's bobble would have cost us a run
Whoooo!
How much for A-Rod? How much for Cabrera? How much for Rolen?
TEN 2-out runs for the A's
Can we just put Brandon Wood in the game yet?

Please........and Kendry too
...somebody remind me why we have Wood
And...for the umpteenth time, can we please swing at strikes? Vlad, GA, OC....hmmm? Pleaseeeeee?!
Well our third baseman
Let's see....
I hear you
Oliver........I love you (Not really but thanks)
OK according to the box scores
Bring up Adenhart....we did it with Santana!!!!!!!
Lackey....
This game sucks
by cardinalwraith on Jul 23, 2007 10:07 PM PDT reply actions
Does anyone think...
Adenhart is not ready
Sounds reasonable.

Spitballing ideas
- We have room on the 40-man roster, so look at putting Bulger and/or Gwyn on it and bring them up to the 25-man. Wood, Morales, and Haynes (yes, he'd have to pass through waivers) may all be expendable to the 25.
- Let Moseley/Bootcheck tandem a couple of starts in the Colon spot (this is all assuming Bart goes on the DL) for a few weeks; say one starts, goes three innings or so, the other guy replaces him for a couple innings. Having Bulger/Gwyn up (hell, maybe even Rich Thompson) helps the bullpen depth to allay these guys being on this schedule.
- After a few weeks, evaluate where Ervin is, and bring him up if he's back on track.
I'm nervous to pursue these given how close
