That had some amazing on base streak to start his MLB career.

Just in case people haven't looked at the Detmers thread: he's getting shredded at Salt Lake tonight.  3 IP, 8 H, 7 ER, 0 BB, 4 K, and has given up 4 HR and 2 2B.  Ouch.

He will always have the No Hitter and Immaculate inning to look back on.

That belongs in the 9 hole, not at lead off.

how Is Neto not leading off? SMH let's let a bad hitter who can't run take bats away from our star?

Again: .195/.253/.286 in 83 plate appearances as a leadoff hitter.

[No Roles]

nice adell...that was productive

[TheLordofOuts]

Pillar OPS .979

Ohtani IPS .955

How long should they extend Minasian's contract?

 

[No Roles]

that was on Zach for not swinging at the right pitch ! 

[EDinTUSTIN]

Actually, Schanuel belongs in single or double A. If he was a gifted defender and hitting in the 9 hole, then maybe let him learn through baptism by fire. But right now, he is a mediocre defender who is nowhere near ready for the majors.

mickey Moniak doesn't look healthy to me honestly....like he looks like he is drinking in the dug out..lol

GO ANGELS!!!

BALANCE THE BOOKS ON THAT DISASTROUS TEXAS TRIP!!!

The Angels had a great Texas trip. 4-2 and the 2 loses were lost in the 13th inning

[Duren, Duren]

Nice recovery for Canning. Maybe his bad inning which wasn't terrible,  is behind him. But Houston has some tough outs. 

[Jay]

Say goodbye to Rengifo.

What is the point? We aren't competing for shit. Let him suck. 

[No Roles]

He belongs in AAA. Early on I spoke for being patient, but he's clearly not a major league hitter, and I'm starting to worry that by pushing him to the majors so quickly, he's pressing so much he's forgotten what he's good at. 

Sounds sorta familiar.

[Ace-Of-Diamonds]

Canning has really turned his season around...
