THROW STRIKES C.J.!

[jshep]

Lol Ibanez/Freese vortex of suck still in place

 

Here we go again!

[Richard]

and bleh to the Ibanez thing. He's actually been okay this series. I don't think the Indians will throw anything close to the strikezone to Trout the rest of the series. Time to step up ALBERT.

[fan_since79]

Trout has to stay hot in order to pull the dead weight of Ibanez and Freese (and to a lesser extent, Pujols).

 

Pujols, .657 OPS this month.

[fan_since79]

They're going to have to put out a missing person alert for CJ Cron soon.

That spin Ibanez put on the ball yesterday to cause that error by Cabrera was phenomenal! Guys a stud!

Get off Ibanez, the guy is on a TWO games hitting streak.

Unselfish player!

Saw this today

@richardjustice: Mike Trout through 66 games: 16 HR, 54 RBIs in 2014; 12 HR, 42 RBIs in 2013; 12 HR, 40 RBIs in 2012. This kid might make it.

Pretty impressive considering the "slump" he went through.

Ibanez-the gift that keeps on giving.

[Make Angels Great Again]

Mike Trout's last 22 Games or 101 PAs: .410/.475/.819/1.295 with 8 Dingers and 26 Ribs

 

Machine.

History in the making!

Interesting to read the Indians DFA'd Josh Outman today. Would love to see him as a lefty specialist out of the Angels bullpen.

[fan_since79]

Mike Trout, last seven games:

 

1.590 OPS

36 PA, 2 strikeouts, 7 walks

 

I think the strikeout problem will soon be history.

[70runner]

Pujols the big hole in the lineup early, Freese/Ibanez later

 

Cron only hitting .400 with RISP, no need for him

 

2nd/3rd in the Angels lineup, best player in MLB followed by ... you fill it in

 

Throw strikes CJ

Surprised to see Calhoun back in the line up after a nice day yesterday

Amber Alert

CJ Cron

He was out of minor league options, so the Indians have 10 days to trade him, release him or try to pass him through waivers.

 

Currently he is only available through trade and they can recall him to the 25 man roster.

Guess if the price is right. He has control issues apparently.

This board is going to be hilarious when Ibanez pulls a pinch hit home run out of his ass in the playoffs.

You are wrong, most people here are ok with Ibanez as pinch hitter, just not the regular DH over guys like Cron, Green, Navarro.

Veteran!

Yeah, and Frieri will strike out the side in game 7 of the WS.

This team isn't making the playoffs with guys like Ibañez starting,
