This team is so annoying. What's the point of getting on in front of Trout if even Gentry is going to GIDP. I have to stop watching this shit

 

In hindsight, shoulda, woulda, coulda order a hit n run, scioscia is just asleep at the wheel tonight.

[eligrba4ever]

Beltre goes deep. 2-1 Texas.

[JarsOfClay]

Ya Richards fastball is completely flat, it has good velocity, but it doesnt have the movement in had in 2014.  Not sure why though.

[CaliAngel]

Nice K.

 

Gotta score more than 1 if you expect to win.

[TroutField]

How does Scioscia not lose his shit. Richards pitches like a little pansy, throws a change up 5 feet outside walks around the mound, rubs the ball up. Throws a fastball a little outside, gets all pissed he doesn't get the call. Walks around the mound some more, rubs the ball down.

Get the damn ball and throw it, your stuff is ridiculous if you could just trust it!!

[CaliAngel]

I dunno why ou guys are bitchin' about Richards. His stuff is filthy. Yah he's made a couple mistakes tonight, but it happens.

[NrM]

I think we're expecting a little too much out of richards. He's pitching fine right now.

[NrM]

Trout needs to wake up.

Richards is quite the competitor, no need to call him a pansy and other stupid crap like that, he's frustrated with himself, he knows hes better than this but the results just arent there.

Yeah I don't think so... He's expected to be our ace this year and he doesn't seem like he's ready to step into that role. Sink or swim and so far he hasn't been doing much swimming

There is a world of difference between Richards and Hamels in how they act on itthe mound.

He's a major league player, have some composure. When the fans can see you having your mental breakdown there is a problem. That's why I'm frustrated with him, and the way he's pitching is pitching like a pansy. He's nibbling around the zone the way CJ Wilson does. It's frustrating to watch, he looks completely different than 2014

[CaliAngel]

Looks like legit catcher Perez blocked his hand with his foot.

 

Great play at home by Perez. Can't say enough good stuff about this kid.

[CaliAngel]

Great catching by Perez. Holy hell great play!

[Broad Street]

How are we doing? I haven't been paying attention

[tdawg87]

Perez is legit. We got that nigga AND Tropeano for our own backup catcher.

[laagamer]

****ing kid is solid.

[TroutField]

Awesome tag by Perez! Andrus shoved his hand right into Perez's spikes

[TroutField]

Perez is legit. We got that nigga AND Tropeano for our own backup catcher.

Speaking of Trop is he schedule to take Heaney's spot in the rotation? Anyone know?

[Jason]

So far 2016 Trout is an automatic out.

Thanks Jerry?

[TroutField]

So far our 3-4-5 is an automatic out. Frightening

[tdawg87]

Trout sucks trade pls
