If Josh was mad that his great teammate was extended that's even more of a reason to lose him. Huge headcase

Haa Darvish said that this was his worst start of the year. I like these starts as his worst ones

The Angels are 10 games below .500. 13 games behind the A's. 12 behind the Rangers. They are even behind Seattle.

I'm done hating Josh Hamilton and the Angels.

Somebody has to matter for me to hate them....

and the Angels and Josh Hamilton simply don't matter.

Don't hate Hamilton, just think he's getting what he deserved

Used to work across the tollway from Dr. Pepper when Gentry was there. John Mayberry Jr was RF and the laziest guy on the roster. Gentry would cover all of CF plus the RF gap. Gentry would be just a flash out there. Playing every night he'd get one down in the gap and he would tear up the basepath. Gentry creates a whole lot of stress on the opposition. Darn wish he had some power.

Did some looking and these are gentry's numbers over the past 3 seasons (the number of plate appearances add up to the equivalent of about one whole season)

Not too shabby, sure he doesn't hit for power, but he does all those other things you need a ballplayer to do, over this same 580 plate appearances he's accumulated about 5.8 WAR

Ive been on this kick for a while. You're not going to lose games because of Gentry. He makes things happen with his speed.

She's a regular person like all of us. Have you ever said something when you were hurt or mad that you regretted later? Did you ever lash out at others about something that involves your spouse?

I have. Have you?

Awesome win last night to run the streak to eight wins in the last nine games. Keep it going, Alexi! This is actually the matchup that I thought looked least favorable heading into the series. Unlike Richards and Williams, Hanson has pitched pretty well lately. C'mon bats!

“They let us go out and date other people and kind of give our hearts away,” Katie Hamilton said. “I’m so glad they didn’t. We feel so strongly this is where God has moved us and planted us.”

She's right, this is what God wanted for them all along, a terrible season with millions in the bank, congrats!

LOL That's hilarious!

Definitely took advantage of Yu's poor outing. Good teams really have a knack for picking up their teammates.

Appreciate what you did there. Makes it easy to present facts clearly. Will try that too.

I have long been a Gentry fan but TEX power orientation has kept him out of the lineup when had he been getting regular ABs that line you posted might even be better. In June - July last year Gentry performed well offensively ... for long stretch of time he had the best BA on the team.

In order to give Napoli more consistent ABs and to keep him available as second catcher Wash began starting Napoli at 1b ... moving MY to DH. Moving MY to DH pushed Hamilton back to LF. Then shortly later to ensure Murphy had consistent ABs too that meant moving Hamilton back to CF displacing Gentry. Everything affects everything and despite having the best line on the team not being a power bat resulted in Gentry sitting for long stretches. Gentry was far more valuable coming in late in the right situations than

Murphy who was far more limited dimensionally than Gentry ... and to get any value out of Murphy he had to play every day.

She is not a regular person. This was not something she said on the spur of the moment. This was something she said several days before. I loved the treatment she recieved when she came back to ranger stadium. Katie we know you dated others. Because your husband was in that bathroom stall with his date. She is just an idiot, with an idiot for a husband.

I would bet my left nut Katie has cheated on Josh, multiple times.
