SB Nation Angels Blog Writes Cringeworthy Josh Hamilton Farewell | The Big Lead

Jeebus, I knew this guy was ... Out there... From my days on SBN, but this is crazy.

Halos Heaven was always a terrible website. Rev Halofan is a fucking douche.

Wow, this division is terrible. Just looked and Houston is the only team over .500.

Yes a 'slow' start for all Rangers are lucky the entire division is struggling.

Rangers are too much of a dumpster fire to recover from that slow start. That was a painful series to watch for fans on both sides.

How 'bout those Astros

And F.U. to comcast and TWC for not allowing me to be able to watch them. Grew up Astros fan (they were never really good, but didnt matter), then Rangers came along so fan of both.

The Rangers are a dumpster fire again this year. Already looking to 2016 and 2017.

Didn't realize how bad the rest of the West is after Houston.

The other 4 teams are at least 3 games under .500

I know it is early and all but gotta feel good for Stros fans to have a 7 game lead

lol @ the Angels. How fucking sanctimonious does Arte look now? LOL

If the A's don't fare well this year, it's time to fire Melvin!

Another home run for Vogt. Now rocking a 204 wRC+ on the season. Behind only Adrian Gonzalez and Nelson Cruz.

Since abandoning the Cardinals for a payday if Pujols didn't have bad luck he wouldn't have any luck at all.

Looking at their team stats, they appear to be much better than their record suggests (average offense but above average pitching), so the 2-15 in one-run games certainly explains why.

And now we'll hear all the "Beane is overrated" talk again from some...

Unfortunately, that bad luck's probably enough to doom their season.

And so begins the Joey Gallo era.

Willie Bloomquist batting 2nd. McClendon should have been ejected for that instead.

I'm not sure where to look this up, but I think the Astros' Carlos Correa and Altuve is a new record for the biggest height difference between a shortstop and second baseman middle infield combination. Can you think of another? Cal Ripken, Jr. comes to mind.
