Mariners blow it in the 9th to extend their losing streak to 5 games and are now 1-9 in their last 10. They have already lost 5 1-run games this season. Not getting all that flukey/good luck like last year where they seemingly won every 1 run game they were in

You hate to see it

You get by on smoke and mirrors for an entire season, then you don't.

I was just looking at where the Halos stand in comparison to the Dodgers. How have the Halos played 5 more games? Did the Dodgers have a bunch of rain outs?

He had a 4.31 FIP with the Angels despite his horrible walk rate.  

Not aiming this at you but Angels fans really tend to dismiss the impact the defense has on pitching.  It was legit the biggest issue two years running.

All the Angels pitchers suffered due to horrible defense the last couple years.
