Gameday Thread (6/11/24): Angels @ D-Backs: Suarez on the mound, Stefanic leading off again

[jsnpritchett]

Jordan Montgomery gets the start for Arizona. In addition to his 6.80 ERA, his StatCast numbers have also looked awful so far:

Found out yesterday the Angels are in town, don't know how I missed it.

So I'm gonna be at the game, got some great tickets last minute for a pretty good price. 

Field level row 1 baby!

depending on how the game goes, you may want to bring something like this, just in case.

GO ANGELS!!!!

DON'T GET SNAKEBIT!!!!

Pitch well, Jose Suarez.

[T.G.]

Why are the Angels playing the Savannah Bananas?

[Waybackman]

Two pitching titans.

[katie]

We are so fucked. 

[No Roles]

all I do know is there is no reason to ever activate Brandon Drury again...if they can trade him for a bag of chips they should, we no longer need his services !

[No Roles]

schanuel was so dumb to not let that easy curve ball just hit him...

Sorry may have overreacted to the leadoff walk

Haven't had the chance to watch some of the games as off late, but did Adell change his hitting mechanics? I don't recall a leg kick earlier in the season.

Turns out the overreaction was valid. 

[Waybackman]

Why did we sign Suarez?

[Halo in Chicago]

You don’t see 2 triples in one inning every day.

I think it may have been an UNDERreaction.

Fulmer warming up in the 2nd inning.  Really great idea to give Suarez this start.  Top-notch decision-making all around, fellas.

I was hoping it was to increase his trade value, but I’m probably giving them waaaay too much credit.

Oh, yeah, I can't imagine he has any trade value at all, at least on his own.  Maybe he's an add-on in a larger deal, but I don't see any reason anyone else would put much value on him.

Yeah, I wouldn’t trade a case of beer for him, but I thought I read awhile back rumors that a couple of teams were interested in him. Can’t imagine he would bring much at all, but better than a straight DFA.

2 year extension for Pillar now!
