GO ANGELS!!! Go Matt Shoemaker!!!

Going for the series win tonight, Shoe. You can do it. Focus.

Unbeaten so far after the All-Star Break!

Go Trout! I need your fantasy points. Ditto Calhoun.

 

[eligrba4ever]

Don't let it go to your heads, Angels, but FiveThirtyEight gives you a 60 percent chance of winning tonight. And 58 percent Sunday. Must be because it's the White Sox.

Is Gubi representing '70s drug kingpins? Oh, it could be Night Fever. But it looks more like Rockford Files.

Go Halos..Go Shoe!

[Glen]

I get to watch this entire game uninterrupted.  Apologies in advance. 

[tdawg87]

Season over.

[Glen]

Productive out.

[Glen]

Jesus Christ.

It's about to be two wins in a row and the Angels will be in the hunt for the AL West division winners

I know a lot of you want Santiago and Shoemaker to continue to pitch well, so we can trade them at the deadline. I on the other hand would rather keep them, if they have truly turned the corner. Good pitching is hard to find and expensive to sign, when you find them.

Keeping Shoemaker (the good Shoemaker) and the improved Santiago, of this July to go with the rebuilt Skaggs, and Tropeano would give us a solid core of 4 starting pitchers. We can add Nate Smith as a #5 starter and we may be a contender again next season.

If you need to trade players, we have Escobar who is older and having a good year with the bat if not with the glove. Cowart can play 3b next year.

If Cowart isn't given his chance soon, he may be wasted in the minors until it's too late for him.

Keep everyone a healthy team with the guys pitching like this wins it all.

Rangers lose again so we have a chance to gain another game.

Baby steps.

Boring offense is boring.

Has Choi gotten a hit yet... I mean ever?

3.  2 singles and a double.

[Angels#1Fan]

C'mon, lets get some runs!!!!!!!!!!

[beatlesrule]

So I assume with all of these best friend diamond ads that they think Angels fans are single guys in long term relationships that can afford to waste their money on a symbol?

[bloodbrother]

Shields to give up 6 runs on 9 hits in 4 innings in his next outing

I wonder if I can set up notifications on my phone anytime he gets an XBH. I might forget I have it on though.
