They were saying that Lorenzo Cain was DFA by MIL.

That guy killed us in 2014.

He sank slowly over time in Lake Michigan.

Trout now leads the AL in HRs

You love to see it.

If there's one guy not to walk in this line up, it's 0-fer Upton.

Do you think M V will follow the Angels to KC or head directly back to his 2pm show in New York on Monday?

Doubt he'll go to KC but that doesn't matter for me, I'll be listening to Rex. 

I don't care much for O'Neal either, but I've listened to Reynolds before and usually get sick of him never shutting up, and I don't care much for what he says. But if you like him more power to you, everyone has their preferences.

Until the TEAM wins its way back into meaningful nights, Individual stats are the next-best thing.

Doesn't Judge have 25 thanks to that band-box in NY?

Yeah I edited my post but not in time.

He is first in the AL in OPS

2 hits.

2!

This offense is still so frustrating. 

[gurn67]

Everyone, but Trout, making him look like Cy Milone.

[tdawg87]

I miss when the offense was good.

[tdawg87]

When you strike out 12 times a game I guess that tends to catch up to you. Babip is real.

[gurn67]

So smart to walk one of the worst hitters in baseball with the top of the order coming up after him.

What about “most people wearing a pancho night” world record to keep your excitement up during those winless nights?

I wish Jose could have gotten more than 13 outs with his 95 pitches; but he did throw some innings in relief on Thursday.

Gotta be honest I'm pretty happy with his performance, he got himself out of some tight situations and has really given this struggling offense an opportunity to win. 

[eligrba4ever]

That's Trout's first hit in this series that did not leave the yard, is it not?

Yes he has 5 hits this series, 4 of them are Home Runs. 

[CaliAngel]

As long as Ohtani keeps trying to pull everything that's thrown to him, he's going to keep having at bats like that. 

[CaliAngel]

Matt Duffy sucks nutz.

[tdawg87]

I just cannot foresee this team winning 1-0. Gotta get some runs. Can't just hit homeruns all night.

[Lou]

Ward is now batting under .300 

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

The M fan said the Angels are paying Upton hit against them. I said not yet
