Gameday Thread: Angels @ Guardians (9/13/22 3pm Pacific): Suarez on the mound, Fletcher still out, Moniak in LF

Reruns of the Queen's Cortege heading to the palace had more drama than this.

He’s hit a home run in every game since you posted this.  Keep up the good work, your reverse jinx is working. 

And he hasn't hit one since you posted this. Good job ruining the streak by trying to show someone up on a message board. 

Dumbass.

I agree (two days in the past...).

Moniak is an upgrade/has more upside than Marsh? Really? 

Ford battled in the ninth. Suarez hung tough till he didn't. A one handed Fletcher got more out of his at bats than almost everyone else. Trout and Ohtani taken care of by Cleveland pitching. How realistic is it to expect Thais to become even an average receiver? 

The Trout streak was an unexpected  positive sideshow, but he just couldn't get the right pitch today. At least he's not striking out like he did mid season. Ohtani's best chance to show elite stats the rest of the way are on the mound. Fifteen wins and he could be top three for Cy Young. MVP looks out of reach.

For Moniak, a finger injury may be slowing him down at the plate.  He looks very good defensively and I expect he’ll compete for the fourth outfielder spot next year.  I don’t get playing Ford- is he AAA depth next year?
