Series Thread: Angels @ Mariners - August 10 - August 13

[boogiewithstu2007]

I could see a long losing streak coming up. These kind of losses are very demoralizing, the manager has fucked up these last two games, the guys in the clubhouse have to know it and there's no ace to lean on to get a win when you really need one. We'll see but yeah this could be the beginning of the end for this team.

Yep, this team is gonna slide, the air is being sucked out.. you can just feel it... Being up 5-1 late you gotta win that one... Also yesterday the skipper sent a bad message using a closer in a non save situation, and then letting him shit the bed, his confidence is probably shaken now as a young player... Now you have Paxton out, Felix out... It's not good ... This loss was effin disgusting... I"m actually seriously pissed right now, just a dumb loss...

Leaving Moore in as long as he did basically signaled that saving the pen was more important than winning this game. Simply not true at all Fuck Servais

The one chance that Gonzalez had to drop his ERA...then along came Moore:

Even bring in Moore was the stupid part. I watched him give back to back to back HR's last Sunday in Tacoma.
it's over, this offense can't carry this team, it sucks, they had a chance to make September fun again with us putting football on the side burner, but now fuck it.......

 

[SeattleCoug]

Here's the excuse.


So if that's the case then Servais fucked up the night before. He brought in Zych for one batter the night before once the game was over. Glad we chose to use him then instead of when we had a lead to protect without Diaz. And Lawerence? If he's not available, send him down and get another arm up here. He's not important enough to take up a roster spot if he can't pitch. Why would you go into a game with three relievers unavailable and have that quick of a hook
For a starter. Sorry rant over just ridiculous

 

[PolarVortex]

We have one of the worst rotations in MLB and a manager who doesn't know how to manage a bullpen. This is a recipe for disaster, or, at the very least, a recipe for another year of missing the playoffs.

But never fear, there are still good things in life.

 

[Anointed One]

Yeah, it's unfortunate with all pitching injuries we've had this year... Sux that it's been the bullpen that's lost the last two games for us...

The Alonso trade is kind of a dud so far.

The Alonso trade is kind of a dud so far.

So many trades have been a dud so far... Never understood the trade w/ pitching being our main need... 1B wasn't a huge need atm...

Yeah, can't really argue.


That said, nice to see a quality start from Ramirez. It's been awhile since anyone other than Paxton has pitched one.

 

[AceKeptic]

Now, if they can just keep Moore out of tonight's game, we may actually have a chance to keep a fucking lead around here!

Nope, gotta get the guy with an ERA north of 6 in there.

 

[AceKeptic]

and just like that...

Another lead blown, another loss on the horizon. Way to go, blowpen. Way to go.

 

[Anointed One]

So Sick of Lawrence... He stinks...

I blame Servais again. You had Zych, Vincent and Diaz all good to go tonight. I have to imagine Rzepczynski could pitch tonight too. What the hell was Lawrence doing in there?

7.25 ERA this year in 22 IP. Fits the bill.

 

[seahawksfan234]

Why the fuck would they send Alonso home there? He honestly looks like the slowest runner on the team.

 

[Destroydacre]

Great stuff Acta. Everyone else fucking up, I guess you didn't wanna be left out.

 

[Msfann]

He was out by a mile and a half. WTF
