He started a pretty sharp decline early as he is only 33. Makes what Ortiz did in this area that much more impressive.

Time for Upton to either roid up, or retire?

Good 'ol lead off walks. 

Those have never hurt us. 

Ohhh those base on balls.

[daygloman]

I don't have the gift of prophesy, but I don't think we're coming back from this one. 

Not today. 

Go Halos!

Maybe Upton got his birth certificate from the same swap meet that Pujols got his.

The angels are just trolling us fans at this point

Got to love the competitiveness between the relievers in the Halos pen. Each guy who comes in does not want to be outdone by the other and so they're each taking turns serving up HR's. You love to see it

My dog.

And Suzuki lifts his chin when trying to block a ball in the dirt.

All are better than Chick Morono

[CaliAngel]

Oh Guerra gave up runs? 

Didn't see that coming. 

Last 7 games: 9 walks, 7.20 ERA. 

Way to pick 'em, Halos. 

[Erstad Grit]

Beyond anything I'm nervous about Rendon as a hitter. I can't stomach another bloated terrible contract.

Fletcher should attempt to hit the ball out of the infield. 

[UndertheHalo]

See out of the infield.  Even barely.  Is good.

I have to be honest, I was glad when we signed him. He seemed like one of those consistent, can't really go wrong contracts. 

But it seems like the contract bug has stung us again, he gets that paper, and maybe he's always had that Garret Anderson complex, but like Upton he seems like he just doesn't give a shit. Batting .242 with 3 homers, yeesh. When he comes up, I don't even expect him to do anything anymore. He's starting to feel like Pujols of 5 years ago. 

[UndertheHalo]

Out of the infield is good. 

[daygloman]

Ohtani!!!!!

Man, is he SOMETHING ELSE, or what!?!

Awesome!

Go Halos!

[HanfordGuy]

Ohtani!!!

[CaliAngel]

Thank you Ohtani, for giving this team some semblance of dignity for the game. Double and a triple tonight, guy is a beast. Love the pop up slide into 3rd.  

[fan_since79]

I want the 2019 Rendon. Where is he??
