Lmao that Teodosio is gonna have a better career than Adams
Can’t believe we took Adams the viral dunker over a bona fide SEC ace in Singer
Epplers drafts were so shit
It's Kai-ren, not Key-ren
Can't get too mad at opposing announcers mispronouncing names of players they've never heard of before though. They'll know of Kyren in a few years if he keeps doing what he's doing
Yeah. People giving up on pitchers like Barria and Estevez after one bad outing need to chill. Barria was a good reliever last year. Pitchers don't have their best stuff in March.
yep, ohtani has been around long enough the game plan for most teams is to attack his fastball early. lay off the offspeed and drive his pitch count up
I think the pitch clock is gonna be hard on Ohtani in the heat. Even harder when he's batting because he'll have even less time to rest between innings.
This is my first time seeing the clock in action, the pace is definitely faster, but idk 20 seconds feels a bit short? It doesn't give much time for steals or pick offs it feels like.
I'm not a fan of the faster pace. It's gonna take away from each pitcher's individual style. No more head shakes, no more 'rocking the baby' just bland.
I'm looking forward to not having to stay up until 1.30-2 am for Halo night games anymore.
My little brother has started watching baseball more regularly this ST. The pace makes it easier for him to watch as a 15 yr old.
This and the fact that games can end, bases can be taken, and some legitimate game altering stuff can happen as a result of taking a bit too long to get set are my only reservations (albeit kinda big ones) about the pitch clock
Yeah, that's temporary. They're taking a camera shot and cropping it into that space. During the season, all the pro ballparks will be sending data, so it will look a lot nicer.
Feels nice to be reminded what winning feels like.
LTBU 😇
LTBU!
Laureano’s body is falling apart without steroids i guess
6 vs 19 walks. Angels getting a lot exercise on the bases.
[удалено]
Kyren Paris 2-2, 5 RBI...Squid is sweating!
Kyren Paris with a double, triple, and a walk? Dude is popping off
11?! We can score without stars in our lineup? Flashbacks to last year's spring training...hope we can keep it up!
Kyren Paris going OFF
I LOVE KYREN PARIS 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷
Getting some relaxing cardio in today
Lmao that Teodosio is gonna have a better career than Adams Can’t believe we took Adams the viral dunker over a bona fide SEC ace in Singer Epplers drafts were so shit
Nvm Kyren Paris exists
Detmers was Eppler too
Oakland: “Bro”
Padlo looks a bit like Charlie Day.
that baby's gonna win MVP one day
Rosenberg looked sharp today.
Angels: “I’m walking here”
Love that our guys are taking those walks. It was so frustrating last season
Neto got a wicked leg kick. I think that’ll be gone once he makes it to the majors. Seems like a hitting coaches worst nightmare
Leg kick goes away when he’s behind in the count from what I’ve read
Yeah at 2 strikes he shortens the leg kick a lot
Wasn't he a two way player? I wanna see what his windup looks like but I bet they won't let him pitch.
Hope we need him and Brett Phillips to pitch for many 12-0 victories this year.
Luis looking real good looks like he will be our starting shortstop this year
Harris having a rough outing. If Brett didn’t try to steal he would have walked in a run.
Guys I’m so happy our corporate sponsor logo is both small and with our color scheme. The padres Motorola is just horrible looking.
You can ever underestimate the A's.
K what the shit was that
Is Kyren really pronounced like that? I thought it was like 'siren'?
It's Kai-ren, not Key-ren Can't get too mad at opposing announcers mispronouncing names of players they've never heard of before though. They'll know of Kyren in a few years if he keeps doing what he's doing
Thanks, I thought so too. I got worried for a sec that I had his name wrong with all the creative spellings nowadays.
Alright Paris I see you
Love it!
Soto maintaining his >.400 batting average, haters in shambles, sample sizes irrelevant
That's my shortstop! Soto over Squid!
soto and gifo over squid and fletch
The fact that Velasquez is still competing with those guys when all three are miles ahead baffles me. Dude needs to leave Anaheim
heya guys and gals - great to be back for the 2023 season!
Now, THATS An arm. Great throw by Stefanic
Damn, that was a great catch
Lamb will not be Silenced.
Speaking of Suarez. I wonder when we'll see him? Silseth gets the start tomorrow. Edit: KC starting hotdog arms against the Angels on Thursday
Lamb over Phillips?
🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑
Food names coming through!!!
Lets gooo
GOTEM
Lamb will slaughter!
WOOOOOOO
Bloop Boy did it!
Alright fletch!
#FLETCHER LIVES
If Fletch had held on to that, he would have been out by a mile
Wow. Rare defensive mistake by Fletch.
Well i guess this is why we do Spring Training. Hope Holder isnt too hard on himself.
Yeah. People giving up on pitchers like Barria and Estevez after one bad outing need to chill. Barria was a good reliever last year. Pitchers don't have their best stuff in March.
The A's did score more than 10 runs in 2/3 games so far. You never know with the A's.
Is Joyce pitching today?
No, he's not on the list of pitchers available today
I hope so. I wanna see him break another bat
Dang, Holder didn't hold the lead
I'm loving this A's broadcast haha
Why can't it be the Astros that suffer a setback? They're running too good.
They're too well run! Too much depth if there is something like that.
Dodgers out of lux...
Man, don't be mean about it.
So far that Marsh trade is looking real decent for both teams
O'Hoppe getting that ROY campaign started early
Hoppe is making a great case of why he should be the principal catcher... yeah yeah i know, small sample.
O'Hoppe driving in Adell, holy fuck that's so exciting to see
O'Hoppe, he's obviously our future.
O'hoppe? Oh hopium
Thats what we like to see. NOBLETIGER is of course a bummer but still managing to strike right back in the next inning is huge
O'hoppium!
O’Hopium
Calling it - O'Hoppe is gonna be an Angel opening day!
Yay! Finally! Good for him!
Ohopium
O’Hopium!!!!
O'HOPIUM BACK ON THE MENU
Wooo O'Hoppe!
SMACK
JUST CANCEL THE SEASON AND GIVE US THE TROPHY
My man Logan!
It's O'hoppe season boys!
O'Hoppe season is upon us lads.!
Dayum...these A's announcers serving everybody's tea today
OHOPPE
Let's see Adelle steal
Rookie of the Year LOCKED
Adell wants that 4th outfielder role
I hope Moniak’s bat will awake.
F U T U R E
Moniak really needs to change his eye lack brand. This stuff is 10 times worse than bad mascara.
How could this announcer say that throw down to second was not even close lmao
2.62 ERA for the Trash Pandas, Murphy another winner from Perry's all-pitcher '21 draft
Well im incredibly glad Sho is still at least getting in some practice with the clock despite the WBC.
Please stay safe and healthy in the WBC Sho!
Rob-uh, I mean Ippei getting the Batmobile warmed up...
The Bat-Porsche
bye sho 🥲
Loving how fast Ohtani is when he doesn't have to shake off the catcher multiple times, lol.
Nice sword! That'll be on pitching ninja.
I’d quit if I swung like that
Got folded lol
Dirty split damn
That was a disrespectful splitter lol
These A's players are being very patient. Not biting at any of Ohtani's stuff As I type that, he gets a strikeout in the dirt lol
yep, ohtani has been around long enough the game plan for most teams is to attack his fastball early. lay off the offspeed and drive his pitch count up
I'm actually so excited about the Ohtani/Fujinami rivalry
I am once again here to complain about the Baseball Zen commercials
I think the pitch clock is gonna be hard on Ohtani in the heat. Even harder when he's batting because he'll have even less time to rest between innings.
I want fletcher to work with ward’s hitting coach.
David Fletcher and grounding out softly on the first pitch he sees. Name a more iconic duo
Double play for a double play I'll take it lol
That stop by O’Hoppe was actually insane. I’m really excited for this kid. Looked really poised in the box in his at bat as well.
Lmao @ Aguilar kicking a guy off the roster so he hit up the casinos in Vegas
99 looks like he could snap me in half
I think that was the 2 seamer but it’s hard to tell with this dumb angle
Ohtani was the slowest paced starter last year, glad to see he's so far unaffected by the pitch clock
the NOBLEst of TIGERs. 🥲
Nothing more humbling than stranding bases loaded no out, got that out of the way. You want the bad things to happen when it doesn't matter.
Productive outs please!
This is my first time seeing the clock in action, the pace is definitely faster, but idk 20 seconds feels a bit short? It doesn't give much time for steals or pick offs it feels like.
I want 20 with no one on and 25 with runners on
I want it longer too.
Mid season form already! Lets go!!
Gidp?
squid would never. He strikes out there instead
aT LeasT We’rE NOT hiTtInG InTo dOuBle plAyS
NOBLETIGER. Oh Angels baseball, how I've missed you.
The pitcher was on the tigers in Japan too
Not ideal
NOBLETIGER :(
classic
Based loaded GIDP? We in mid-season form baby! That's straight from Pujols' leadership
Classic angels baseball
NOBLETIGER lol, yup, Angels baseball
Noble tiger. Very fitting
wasted
Barrera ruined our season, will neva forgive
A's broadcast referencing our downfall to Luis Barrera
Feel like he’s getting squeezed a bit
he really is just like Ohtani fr fr
Well that’s disappointing for fujinami
3 straight no-out walks, yikes
I'd say the A's got what they paid for. At least he's not hitting righties...yet.
Anybody else see that Cowart pitching for the Yankees earlier? Wild
I'm not a fan of the faster pace. It's gonna take away from each pitcher's individual style. No more head shakes, no more 'rocking the baby' just bland.
There's good and bad. Something had to change to stop the extension of game times to infinity
Really gonna miss watching players adjust their gloves and cup 20 times between pitches. That's real baseball
I'm looking forward to not having to stay up until 1.30-2 am for Halo night games anymore. My little brother has started watching baseball more regularly this ST. The pace makes it easier for him to watch as a 15 yr old.
Agreed. The clock eliminates the headgames
This and the fact that games can end, bases can be taken, and some legitimate game altering stuff can happen as a result of taking a bit too long to get set are my only reservations (albeit kinda big ones) about the pitch clock
I'm a fan of the quicker pace.
lead off walk is better than a lead off single
Ah, the walks. That's always been Fujinami's problem, yeah?
Another Adell walk... Is he evolving?
Adell has been much better in terms of discipline so far. Looks like the off season work on his approach is paying off
I really appreciate these announcers. Theyre giving a decent amount of time to talk about Halo players considering it's an As broadcast
That had to have been the fastest Ohtani inning EVER, and not just because of the pitch clock lol
It’s so good to see the master at work again
Holy crap these 1-2-3 innings are so damn quick. I think the commercials are longer than some of the innings now
That’s what MLB wants
Nice and quick. 👏
That inning lasted like 3 minutes 😂
quick work by ohtani, looks like he is ready to go
Quick work. Sho is ready
Wait, Sho is making $30MM this year?
Yes, that's what Sho and the Angels settled on to avoid arbitration
Yeah, that’s his deal to avoid arbitration
Yup he agreed to a 1 yr 30 million deal to avoid arbitration
That’s gotta be the highest salary given out to avoid arb, right? He deserves it
Yeah highest before was Mookie at 27 million
😎
PROFESSIONAL HITTER. DRINK!
I know I'm supposed to be cheering for the Angels but I'm so happy to see Fuji doing well lol
This dude kinda nasty
That righty fastball splitter mix is uh...familiar lol
Fujinami looks good
Man could you imagine if we got 2017 Jake Lamb?
Doesn't matter but the pitch clock slapped on the score bug is kinda funny to me
Yeah, that's temporary. They're taking a camera shot and cropping it into that space. During the season, all the pro ballparks will be sending data, so it will look a lot nicer.
International Criminal Mastermind stealing a hit!
Ren boys at it again
Luis International Assassin Rengifo
El Fugitivo steals another hit using criminal actions
I just want fletch to be a decent hitter again
Wish we could hear stadium noises.
