GDT: 8/5/13 Rangers @ Angels- No Calhoun

Nah that's okay Jerome, a 2 run defecit was much too close

[Amazing Larry]

Where is the option where Jerome gets clobbered and there's no win for someone to blow for him?

Good call.

[Angel Oracle]

Dude, I have met and talked to you many times. You are a good guy but lets be honest about you ranting on here about the same damn thing all the time. It has been a long season for all of us around here, hearing the same thing three thousand different ways is beyond old.

Fair enough, maybe this franchise needs one of these seasons to purge a large part of these past 4 seasons. As a fan since the 60s, it is frustrating going through potentially another bad decade.

I just hope the moves this org makes are better going forward.

Ideally, Scioscia should go to the bullpen right now...but this team has nobody in the pen worth putting in. 

[Angel Oracle]

Hyperextended knee for Kendrick

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

Hopefully, Vargas comes back soon, so Williams can go back into the bullpen. 

[gotbeer]

I'd rather see if Jerome could get out of it, then hand it to the pen.  But I guess they need more practice in RISP situations.

Hyperextended knee for Kendrick

Out for the season probably. Could have torn his ACL. 

[Amazing Larry]

That was totally a catch. He took two steps with the ball in his glove... it only came out when he impacted with the ground. Bullshit umps.

Rangers' announcers agree.

Well that was quick by the pen.  Jerome could have done that.

Williams and Blanton are nothing but garbage.  They better not be on this team next year. 

[jshep]

Kohn in and Blanton warming up.

I have some paint to watch dry. Probably will be less painful than the rest of this game

[Amazing Larry]

Eric Kay just tweeted Howie is day to day.

I agree with you about Blanton but I think Williams could be effective out of the pen if used correctly.

obligatory "aren't we all."

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

Eric Kay just tweeted Howie is day to day.

Hopefully, he'll be back by the start of next season.

Probably can't do anything till the swelling goes down.

[JAHV76]

Blanton warming up in the bullpen.

Fox Sports West reports a arsonist hast been spotted in the Angels bullpen.

Defcon Elmo!

New Howard's commercial coming with Howie talking about how it's not so bad being on the DL when you have cold drinks from your subzero freezer/refrigerator combo and your 72" TV.

[The God of Runs]

Tommy Field looks like he get picked last everyday back in grade school

[gotbeer]

Late Batting Practice for the rangers.

[gotbeer]

Wonder if Blanton can close?  He has the I will kill you if you hit it look already.

[gotbeer]

He made it look easy.  

[AngelsAndRamsFan]

Hamilton is a sad joke. He never shows any signs of improvement. His numbers (.222/.275/.409/.684) are quickly approaching Wells' historically bad 2011 numbers.
