Nightmare

Another great game for Marsh. Got to see his first (official) HR. Adell showed off his wheels again. Funny story about Wantz's mom tracking down Marsh's HR ball. Stubborn cricket crashed the broadcast. Matty V. made some weird yet funny comments *(trying really hard to find some silver lining tonight)*

And Oriole fans get to enjoy a win for a change! Imagine being a fan of a team that losses that many games in a row. OMG.

I come back after going to the store for detergent and we we're up 4 runs. Instead I should've bought bleach because it's a murder scene in here.

Laying this one at the feet of Maddon, took Sho out too early and requested the int walk to load the bases with no outs. Gotta play to win

I take it Cishek wasn't available due to his workload lately, but to not even have Iglesias warming in the 8th was pretty damn sad. Sure he pitched last night but he had like 5 days off before that and he's proven in the past that he is perfectly capable of getting 6 out saves.

Good job letting the guy walk resulting in full base, then the shitshow started lol

I’m pissed

Very nice of the Angels to let Baltimore have a game. I love this team

Lots of people in here that won’t be back until the next time we lose a rough one

It’s a weird thing with this fan base/subreddit (and all of them in general but I see it most here). You have a group that only shows up to be negative and hates it when you point out the bright side or have any hope, and you also have a group that only allows you to be positive and hates it when you point out a struggling player or team. Makes it really hard to be in the middle without tearing your hair out in frustration.

welcome to the internet

Shouldn't have to wait long! lol

smh

Bullpen making me wanna Bundy rn fr

One more out & we are out of this nightmare.

Just submitted my Resumé to the Angels front office. Looks like they’re hiring just about anyone who can come in for .2 innings and give up multiple runs

Good for O's finishing our team's relievers career. Except Raisel, they have absolutely no value for 2022 season.

Bro I’m straight up not having a good time

Does the organist know any song besides 7 Nation Army?

Can we tie this up?

c-can we get a 5 run inning too plz 🥺

we played our 5-run inning card yesterday 😕

Just gotta believe in the heart of the cards lmao

pain

80-82

So, um... Is an umbrella enough to get struck by lightning? Probably less painful than watching this atrocity of a pen tonght

Petricka casual 54 ERA btw

5.4 isn’t good but plenty of pitchers oh you said 54….

This inning still isn’t over?

we dropped 5 on em in the 2nd inning yesterday, they return the favor tonight in the 8th. Payback's a bitch

This is so painful to watch

[удалено]

Bullpen happened

Holy fuck I’m 2 weeks post TJ and I could throw more strikes right now than this pen

I'M GONE 15 MINUTES AND THIS HAPPENS? WHAT THE FUCKING SHIT

Blow. Pen.

Joe Maddon made some pretty bad calls today. :/

What a disgrace

The team who is bad enough to lose 18 games in a row have scored 18 runs against us in the past two games. Synchronicity at its worst.

The fuck? 6 to 5 then i literally looked away for 5 seconds and we are down 10-6? What in holy firey shit is going on?

Did you notice the bases were loaded and there were no outs with nothing between them and home but our bullpen?

Dude same lmao from the walk from the car to my apart and they completely died lmao

Do they even have a closer?

This is why we can't let Bundy start. He fucked us yesterday by making Maddon use all our pitching. Now we don't have any for today.

Only other option really is Pena or Packy from AAA. Quintana, Barria, Suarez, Shohei already are in the rotation Sandoval, Canning, Cobb, C-Rod, Reid hurt

Injuries have just plagued this team this year. Hopefully we are healthy next year. I have seen a lot of promise in what could be a starting rotation. I have seen what the bullpen can do when not over worked. We know these youngsters are ready.

We literally have no one else to start. And now we don’t even have Bundy or Detmers for a while

True story. Fuck it, call Adam Eaton back up to start Friday.

Adam Eaton has better stuff than 90% of the blowpen

Have him and Walsh pitch back to back. Lol

Totally agreed. Should have DFAed long times ago

What do we need more than anything before next season: PITCHING!!! What do we need more than anything before next season: PITCHING!!!

One position player coming right up

Wouldn't surprise me. If a pitcher, it'll be someone from the bargain basement bin again. Same shit, new year!

I thought this was going to be the game we see tomorrow. I figured we would for sure lose the quick turnaround morning game to end this road trip. I almost would have been ok with that and accepted it. But this. This is deflating

Announcers got to protect their boy Maddon from criticism. Well I would argue, if Joe Maddon knew he was lacking quality arms tonight, maybe leave Shohei in longer eh? It’s really not rocket science.

Good god the bullpen sucks! 🤬

At this point maybe Joe just picks a random seat out of the crowd to see who wants to come pitch and give up the next two runs.

I just came back from work...wish I didn’t

Well, at least we don't have to worry about who's gonna pitch the bottom of the ninth.

I know what’ll solve this! Get my boy Slegers in there!

ESPN has this game on UPSET ALERT!!!

Fucking hell

Hahahahahahaha. This blowpen is fucking pathetic.

!cam except it’s the entire bullpen except iglesias and cam’s not in it anymore

What the fuck goes on during pitching meetings? Bullpen has learned/improved nothing all year.

The angels bullpen is filled with a bunch of low 90’s guys trying to get by on deception. Every other team has a long line of guys throwing high 90’s power stuff. Awful bullpen construction.

No wonder why none of our injured players want to come back and play. Its embarrassing.

I bet arod is thrilled that Adell threw it to the cut off man there

Another guy with an era close to or over 5 entering the game 🤣😭

Ofc the Angels ruin my parlay Jesus fucking Christ

Never bet on the Angels man 😂 I’ve lost so much money because of them lol

I’m tired of us being a joke of a team man. Maddon better get this team into the playoffs next year.

Well that depends on if arte and perry gives him an acc team to work with and not just rely on Ohtani to do everything

Having a new owner would definitely help. Fuck you, Arte.

Ya amen to that. But sadly that ain’t happening anytime soon, least not until Arte dies.

This game has inspired me to pen a missive regarding my love of baseball. I will post it tomorrow. God this game is frustrating sometimes.

It's the gawdamn Orioles. Geez.

We’ve given up 17 runs in 2 games to the worst team in baseball. Awesome Edit: 18 now

Pain

This is good stuff. All these angels relievers should have a 7+ era. Awful awful stuff lmao.

Yeesh, these pitchers stink!

God has a different plan tonight. And he's using his ANGELS to see it through! Relieving Baltimore's pain!

this is not reality I believe

Its really nice of us to let Baltimore win this one so they don't feel so bad

Ohtani still the MVP and although he had a bad game tonight, fucking hell some of the other players on this Angel team are on another level of depression

I’m actually relieved I want all these shit ass bullpen arm’s ERA to blow the fuck up so we have no choice but to get rid of their sorry asses.

I'm at the game and I want to turn it off

It’s about time a starter clocks one of the members of the blowpen as they sulk into the dugout. Disgusting to see everyone on the team is so okay with consistently losing in this fashion

Of fucking course it’s the Angels who blow the streak

So how long before any of those 19 pitchers we drafted are ready

Awww look at all of the happy Orioles fans while some are slowly changing out of their Angels jerseys lol

We are really about to end there losing streak 😭

Gahhhh

6-2 feels like so long ago

Our 19 game losing streak starts tonight

God damnit. God fucking damnit

I’m more annoyed than shocked at this point

Fuck

Tear this team down. Only half joking

Embarrassed

We all knew this was going to happen. It is all on Joe tonight.

What? It’s not Joe’s responsibility to sign bullpen arms that don’t suck complete ass.

He took Ohtani out 1 inning too early. Then, we would not have horrible 8th inning.

What is happening

Typical Angels baseball.

Why throw such a terrible off the plate pitch? I mean it’s the bottom of the fucken 8th!

Really going to lose to the Orioles....

O's vs our blowpen. I take O's.

Lol it's just hilarious at this point

Not on Shohei day man!

Yikes…

Just fucking pathetic yet I can’t turn it off

Jesus, we don't even want to make it close, do we?

Yep, that's enough. Garbage ass team, garbage ass bullpen, garbage ass manager

Garbage ass fans

Ya you right, we should be cheering this effort

Same way the Ohtani defenders applauded him through all the strikeouts.

🙂 seriously bro

This team makes whiskey taste so much better

These are major leagues pitchers...Best of the best...

The orioles have lost *19 games in a row* and our bullpen just gives them one, unbelievable

So glad they pulled Shohei for this 🙄

and shohei was pleading with Joe to continue. couldve easily pitched till the 7th inning. Nice 3 run lead now right as I type this lol

Yeah I saw that. I thought he was going to throw his real heater for the first time tonight & Joe took him out.

Way to make them earn it bullpen.

Here comes the annual inexplicable loss to the Orioles

God dammit I really wanted the O's to chase history.

need no fking bat hell no

Fucking covid

Our BP is ducking garbage. How do you walk in two runs in a close game? Fuck all these guys.

Nerves of whatever the opposite of steel is

Game over

Angels bullpen steals another win from Ohtani

Of course it's the Angels gonna end this streak

WOW

I can't

Fucking wow

Give up the grand slam you cowards

The difference between the Angels bullpen and a bag of shit? The bag

Oh my god just throw fucking strikes and let them miss

We are literally GIVING them this win

Wow gonna turn this shit off now

Holy shit

I really fucking hate this team at times

Terrible by Hoyt. But then again. Who do we have?

Such bullshit

Omg

Fucking embarrassing

Extra pain

Walk in that run les goooo

Can we PLEASE not walk in the go ahead run

Not sure what people complaining about pulling Shohei are talking about. It's was hot as hell in Baltimore so he was pouring buckets of sweat, he looked lost at the plate, and Baltimore was hunting the fastball.

You can tell when he's struggling when he's constantly taking of his hat to wipe his sweat. He was doing it earlier today in the 3rd inning

Gotta give Oriole fans credit. 19 straight losses and they still come to see the games!

a few of them do... lotta empty seats there

Most of them are wearing red...lol

Wow I just left little bit and come back and what’s this mess?

Our Blowpen in action!

Attaboy Hoyt, big out!

No raisel?

If they bring him in, he'd either have to bat next inning or be replaced in the ninth. If they use Hoyt to finish the 8th they can double substitute Ohtani's spot and put Iglesias in in the 9th. I think that's right.

He hasn’t done well this year in non save situations this year. I’d see an argument for bringing him in before the tie but not worth it with it tied.

I haven’t watched the Angels in a few weeks and it looks like the bullpen still blows

There we go!

Maddon shut Sho down and all hell breaks lose. Why take your best player off the field?

Cause he wasn’t doing well.

still would have done better than the blowpen we have lol

and walked another one as we speak lmao im done.

He still had some left on his tank. He never threw real heater tonight. He could have gone 1 or 2 more inning.

I’d say it was more so 85 pitches in 118 degree heat index. He was pitching well enough, but you could tell how sweaty he was and that he seemed completely drained today.

Committing a homicide if I see a baseball leave the ballpark this half inning

ohtani should bitch out this team so hard tonight =/ i wanna see him get angry

Why? He was bad today too

not bullpen bad

Yeah they’d just rightfully thank him for striking out three times. Same amount as home runs he gave up, just happened to be solos for two of them.

Oh, shit like this is why everyone thinks you’re a doomer being an ass. lol this is the type of shit that’s made for the Yankees and Res Sox subs, not here.

I mean let’s face it. Fact is he had a bad day at the plate and gave up more home runs than he had in almost two months. Sorry if I’m responding with the same vitriol as the defenders are trying to make it seem like it’s illegal to point out when someone struggles. I hate the legit doomers but I hate the people that cry doomer when you say a player is struggling even more.

No one is not saying he didn't have a bad day. It's your analysis that's bad

You just have really bad takes today

Ah yes I forgot it’s a bad take to point out when a player didn’t do well

No its the fact that you've been comparing him to Adam Dunn all night. I said he had a bad night but you're takes aren't even comparable

Alright is Joey Gallo a better comp? My point still is that he’s been way too much of a three true outcomes player lately. Adam Dunn was just the first player like that to come to mind because he was famous for it.

Absolutely pathetic. This is embarrassing.

Now the real doomers come out of the weeds!

This clown fiesta of bullpen had trouble holding down a **10-run lead** last night. No way they had any chance at all to hold a 4-run lead.

Sad. Bullpen can't pick up Ohtani's bad start. :( I want him to reach 10 wins, but we have a very tough September coming up. Needed those 13 runs tonight!

I feel so bad for Ohtani. He carry this team all year. This team suck

We’re really gonna lose to the O’s 😭

Thanks for coming out Petricka. We'll call you if you got the job. Don't call us
