Gameday Thread: Angels @ Guardians (9/12/22 3pm Pacific): Detmers on the mound, still no Fletcher

[BTH]

What a pathetic season from Max Stassi.

To not only regress offensively, but defensively too? Come on. And to do it after getting a 3 year deal? Absolute joke.

Yep, I counted three strikes that were called balls because of where he caught them. He's trash.

Weaver is joining the MLBN show for the top of 3. The pitchers who watched Detmers' second inning dinged him for trying to overpower every pitch.

MLB Network version of this broadcast is not having a PBP format. A stack of kibbitzers including Sabathia and 3 MLBN analysts are on the left side.

Not real impressed….but maybe that’s an old guy’s perspective…

Pass the Duff Beer!!!!

[Revad]

Duffy says f-you AW.

Did you catch Weaver's stories?

Duffy brings zero value to this ball club and he doesn't have a future with the club either next year. Doesn't make sense to play him over our own guys IMO. 

Like clockwork.

[jsnpritchett]

Duffy hits a HR.

[eligrba4ever]

Theo's batting in the fourth on MLBN's show. He's itching to get back into the day-to-day of  baseball.

I agree only players with a chance to help next year should be playing, but on the other hand it’s correct to put the best team out there against teams in the playoff race.

[eligrba4ever]

The 2023 model of a base bag is big enough for JUDGE to stand on. OR even Shaq-daddy.

[eligrba4ever]

Max got some wood on that ball. His numbers are down, but so are maybe 7 or 8 other Angels. That's how a team stinks it up so often.

[CaliAngel]

TROUT! 7 STRAIGHT! HOLY SHIT!!!!!

[Revad]

What a stud

[eligrba4ever]

TROUT!! 7 STRAIGHT GAMES!!!

[CaliAngel]

A quick inning by Detmers here after tying the game would be nice.

[eligrba4ever]

Judge is at 55 in 137 games. Trout is at 35 in 100 games.

Right now teams just have to decide, which at bat would you rather Trout hit his home run. Unfortunately for the Gaurdians Trout waited for a runner on base.

Yes….Weav was good….

I'm trying to figure out if this is just an observation or if you're trying to make a point about Trout's pace.

Duffy with the OBP higher than SLG. 

Not anymore! Now hitting a robust .246/.291/.298

Way to get him that first HR. 

[BTH]

What is Nevin doing?

The only reason to leave Loup in for Rosario was because Ramírez is way better vs. RHP (156 wRC+) than LHP (108 wRC+), but then he takes him out for Ramírez??? Then why’d he face Rosario?

My guess is that Stefanic never gets a real shot, and ends up on on the Athletics, where he turns into a solid platoon/fringe starter.

I’ll take that bet.
