Gameday Thread: Rangers @ Angels (5/7/23): Suarez on the mound, Rendon is back in, no Neto

[T-angel]

Suarez far too often sucks when the angels are competitive but when they are far out in the standings starts to pitch well. Also, because its his second time that he's been caught tipping his pitches, one starts to wonder if he is either woefully unprepared all the time to start the season or that he is purposefully throwing games and/or shaving runs. I could say the same for Loup and Tapera to a certain degree. Either way can't win with these guys on the team. I would see if a trade could be made with non contending teams for a AA reliever in exchange for Suarez in order to open up a badly needed roster spot. It may be selling low but its just reached that point where you know he isn't a championship caliber pitcher.

[T.G.]

Rally time!

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Ohtani HR coming, l hope

[Dtwncbad]

Trade for Zach Greinke.

He doesn't deserve to be in the rotation until he actually shows any semblance of consistency.

He has been one type of consistent. 

Sadly, not the type they needed.

Rendon Grand Slam would be something

[HeavenlyHalos]

nice patience that at bat. Let's go, Rendon!

[Angelsjunky]

A single will do. Come on Mr Clutch.

LOL.

This one's on Nevin. He should have known - everyone knew - that the game was about to get out of hand. 

Suarez doesnt waste a lot of time telling you when he's off.  Ive said this before, maybe I just can't remember it happening, but the dude just doesn't tend to FIND his command like others can when they stumble out of the gate.

[HeavenlyHalos]

niiiiiice. Come on, Renfroe...

That works too

[jsnpritchett]

[Dtwncbad]

Worth every penny. 
 

[Angelsjunky]

Why the fuck didn't Trout score?

[ScottT]

Yall crazy.

Suarez has been an above average pitcher the last two years over 45 appearances. 

He was terrible early last year too.

 Him being hurt would make some sense, too.

But GameDay threads are the least rational of the irrational threads on here

This is gonna end up being like a 13-12-type of game.

Yep, that's why I said it was on Nevin. He should know better, or he's just stupid.

[HeavenlyHalos]

productive out. Please drive Ohtani in

I'm hoping for 8-7.

Fuck off and go listen to some more AM830 interviews.

[Dtwncbad]

Plenty of time.  Angels gonna win this game.

[Angelsjunky]

Steal home, Shohei.

[HeavenlyHalos]

Drury you POS

[Angelsjunky]

Drury, you suck.

I have never had high confidence in Suarez and have always been surprised when he has pitched well.  I couldn’t care less if the Angels move on permanently.
