  1. 2 hours 20 mins according to the box score...has to be one of the quickest games I've ever seen to be honest.
  2. Any day the Halos win is a great day! Light that baby up! Way to go boys!
  3. Everyone knew there was no way the centerfielder was catching that except for Rendon, apparently.
  4. It's so nice to see these guys that have been scuffling finally making some solid contact. What are you swinging at Trout...
  5. You should have seen the game last night against the Orioles. I think the box score said 3 errors, but they were much much worse than that on defense.
  6. I would like an explanation from Wash real soon why Adell is not in the g****mn starting f***ing lineup?
  7. No. I already went through it twice and I'm not getting more dumber a 3rd time.
  8. Angels @ Red Sox 4:10 pm PST. That's 7:10 pm in Boston. What's so weird about that?
  9. Happy Birthday buddy, you are missed and still loved
  10. Oh, absolutely. I can't imagine throwing 90+ pitches 90+ mph every 5 days six months out of the year. 7 months if you make the playoffs. I've always been surprised we don't hear more stories from former pitchers about their arms years down the line, I imagine there has to be some long term fatigue or pain. Unable to lift certain weight, pain when reaching, etc. The pitch clock being a newer addition, I'd say we have to wait a couple seasons to see if the injuries continue to increase, level off, or possibly decrease. But something had to be done about the time between pitches, the constant milking time from pitchers really became a nuisance, so perhaps they need to find a happy medium that satisfies pitchers time between each pitch and game time. I think what Gubie says has the most merit. Throwing as hard as you can from the first pitch of the game to the last, and the constant analytics on spin rate for off speed pitches has been too much of an evolution too fast. I know one thing, if I played pro ball the last thing I'd want to be is a pitcher. My arm is just too valuable to me, and I can't imagine having to go through Tommy John surgery. What these guys do out there still blows my mind, it's nothing short of an enigma to me.
