Lol, another TJ. Who will be next? I'm calling Shoemaker.

[mulwin444]

Guess Heaney and Richards will have company

[eligrba4ever]

Right elbow soreness. Is that anything like UCL damage?

[Lou]

do people still want to trade Santiago and/or Shoemaker? 

[TroutField]

Damn now Trop? This is getting beyond ridiculous. We aren't even going to have any major league starters in 2017

Right now the Halos can't afford trading any starters they have no depth

Santiago's funky up and down velocity has always freaked me out a bit. There is no scientific basis for that concern but every time I see him throwing softer than usual I worry.

[bloodbrother]

Trop going down was probably the easiest guess of the bunch tbh. Seriously crazy how they are all going down within the same season though

[eligrba4ever]

Will the Dipoto's Angels legacy be entirely wrapped up in the name Tommy John?

[JAHV76]

JC

 

nice pitching out of a jam

[daygloman]

Nice!

Light up the Halo!!!

[eligrba4ever]

LIGHT THAT BABY UP!!! The Angels fall behind early and come roaring back!! Four in a row!!!

Trout and Choi provide some muscle. Chacin stops the bleeding after NiTro melts down.

The hitters pick it up after Salas coughs up a lead.

[JAHV76]

LTBU! Chacin did a nice job filling in for Trop. Congrats to Choi for his first home run. 

[eligrba4ever]

Class act, Mike. Sharing Alex time with Choi. LOL.

[Lou]

pretty cool of Trout to call Choi out to the mic after the game

[wopphil]

It could actually be worse than TJ. Seeing as how in this organization "stomach cramps" and "fatigue" really mean "Tommy John," the term "elbow soreness" could really mean lobotomy or heart transplant.

I recall thinking this earlier in the season but it seems like he's been consistent the last 5 or 6 starts. 

[CaliAngel]

Alex Curry could be less useless with her interviews. Atleast she has boobs.

[CaliAngel]

Once again, this team's lifeline begins and ends with Trout. What a blessing he is. And what a shame he's in the middle of all this subpar ballplaying.

My money's on leprosy.

[bloodbrother]

With Hector I always just assume it's fatigue. Every time I watch Trop pitch I'm just baffled at how he came to that sort of delivery. The way he throws/winds up looks so unnatural as a throwing motion overall and it makes my arm hurt just watching it. Always got the same vibe whenever watching Jordan Walden pitch with his goofy ass mechanics

 

[CaliAngel]

THAT BEING SAID: It's always a GRRRRRR-RREAT night when the Halos win. It makes me feel all warm and squishy inside.

Either that or I sat in something.

[bloodbrother]

Angels the best team in baseball post ASB and also will probably not lose another game the rest of the way(going off this current trend)

By the way, we need a better light the halo celebration. That's a clown gif brah.
