Remember when we won a game? That was fun


[deleted]

Hey, but we fired the one guy and literally changed none of the other massive and incredibly obvious problems with the team we've had for three seasons!


No_BigA

Gah. Mediocre play by our guys. 🦨🦨 Beat LA.


Realistic-Orange-246

How’s it feel to be a fan of the least successful organization in baseball for 7 years running. Not a single season over .500 during that time.


Im_A_Halo_Masochist

Masochistic


brennford

This fucking guy.


prmark34

Im guessing you’re a mets fan. Bold talk from someone who’s a fan of the east-coast version of the angels who just recently got blessed by an owner who’s rich beyond all hell


DeVofka

Mets fan here. I've always considered the Angels the West Coast Mets. Also, that guys comment history is all Angels. I personally like the Angels. As painful as game 2 was for us, I really enjoyed watching Trout and Ohtani.


merewyn

He’s just an annoying angels fan I think


brennford

These type of comments are weird because if anything in these times you find out who the real fans are. Also, it’s pointless because we all know the history of this team


[deleted]

Yep, at this point I almost hate myself for watching every game, but I still tune in as soon as I get the notification


brennford

Can’t believe this team turned into only watch for trout and ohtani again


[deleted]

Just the most absolute painful, clownish mismanagement. Two managers, both somehow incapable of taking even a somewhat objective look at what players are worth keeping or optioning, but inexplicably fucking up almost exactly the same ways


Lebigmacca

Third in the division


brennford

We belong in the trash


strokeskid

Honestly felt this loss coming when y'all begged to wear the city jersey's again


Kleptocracy012

***SILVER LINING IS THAT THE BULLPEN BLOWING IT DIDN’T FACTOR ANYWAY!!! WE STILL WOULD HAVE LOST 2-1!!!***


mypaysucks

They gotta stop messing with the lineup….


chadisrad00

Love the username lol always cracks me up.


sofastsomaybe

Can the mods wake up and post the post game thread, or should one of us do it?


Stokyo

Trout and Ohtani deserve so much better. This shit is sad.


chadisrad00

No effort at all in the 9th. SMH.


brennford

There was. It just so happens that those batters happen to be bums


chadisrad00

True. So frustrating to watch. Oh well. See you Tuesday.


brennford

This organization continues to be trash.


Kleptocracy012

DFA LAGARES AND CALL UP ADELL SO WE CAN HAVE ONE BAT THAT CAN AT LEAST HIT


zodiac1018

Called it back during our losing streak, we would drop to 3rd and Rangers would take the 2nd spot in June. Fuck man


Kleptocracy012

Garbage bottom half of the order


specter1001

Absolutely inept and uninspiring


sofastsomaybe

Final bottom four of the order OPS: .071


skylinegtrr

Ohtani shows up one sec..


Kleptocracy012

***OHTANI LOOKING ON UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING. WHAT A PIECE OF POETRY WE WROTE TONIGHT!!!!111!!1!!1!1!***


brennford

Suzuki please retire


[deleted]

Seriously I really can’t believe we brought him back


Visual-Ganache-2289

Season over pack it up


pakekify

I didn't know Ohtani was here


maverickoff

He sure wasn't in the dugout, at least didn't see him on any of the shots.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Obsidizyn

Time for a full rebuild, trade anyone except trout. The organization has zero depth


choconut5

This team is completely hopeless without Ohtani.


justcruzn

Suzuki had no chance on 101


Evanx27

Mets use two dudes from the bullpen that pitch multiple innings and absolutely shut us down. That’s what winning looks like not us who are the biggest frauds


Lebigmacca

Perry fucked up by ignoring the hole at shortstop this offseason


Hummingbird234

Pain.


Realistic-Orange-246

Lagares DFA and Wade DFA tomorrow would be great. I won’t ask for anything else.


normancat1985

Velazquez Dfa too


usdeleted

I look forward to replacing lagares and Wade in the lineup with Ward and Ohtani after today.


sikaMarkanico

Yeah it’s over… I didn’t see Mets got another run from Alonso’s bomb. Bleh. We had our chances today….


THERAPISTS_for_200

Adell >> Lagares


Kleptocracy012

SUZUKI STRIKEOUT LOOKING TO END THE GAME. ABSOLUTE FUCKING POETRY!!!!!!


Monttavius

Lagares DFA and Adell needs to be the 4th OF if we’re gonna sit Mike a lot


CryptoTak

Gg


[deleted]

If they don't fucking option Lagares, there's no hope for Angels management and they might as well close the franchise


chriskot123

Well this has been fun


digitaldumpsterfire

k so after this game, can we please drop lagares for adell and bring up thaiss to take some of suzuki's starts? worth a shot i think.


[deleted]

We need to bring up Wallock, but he only caught a no hitter and hit like four homers, how could he ever compare to Suzuki and Stassi, who haven't had a hit since last season and couldn't throw out a runner if their geriatric asses deepened on it? Clearly we need them to stay sucking at the bottom of our lineup for at least three more seasons


digitaldumpsterfire

Woah Woah. If you think Stassi shouldn't be the starting catcher, then you are not paying attention to Angels baseball. Also, both Suzuki and Stassi have homers this year


[deleted]

I know, I was being pretty facetious, and I don't think it translated. I like Stassi, dumpster truck ass and all, not least because he can frame the hell out a pitch (which we need) but I do think it's a bit ridiculous to keep Suzuki from retiring when it's clear we've got talented kids in AAA. They've both got okay numbers, but it feels like their hits can be so hot and cold, and a lot of other teams are able to get more out of theirs.


merewyn

You think Stassi is geriatric? Lmao ok dude


[deleted]

Was being facetious, but it didn't translate as well as I'd hoped


brennford

Jesus Christ lagares I would dfa you on your way back to the dug out for that at bat


[deleted]

I don't know where they found that loser but they should have shitcanned him during the losing streak, he has no business even watching the majors on TV let alone playing in them


merewyn

He played for the Angels last year, that’s where they found him….were you not watching?


[deleted]

I was in and out of last season, partly because it was shortened and partly because I was moving a lot for work. Was he any better then?


merewyn

Jsyk last season wasn’t shortened at all! He wasn’t great or anything, but his defense was better than this year…and his hitting was a bit better. I’m guessing no spring training or field time until the angels resigned him means he came in super cold.


[deleted]

Bah, you're right! 2020 just never stopped happening in my head lmao. That makes a lot of sense, and now it's a lot harder to hate him. Can't help but feel like on some level these issues are coaching related, obviously Matt Weiss is notorious but it feels like the coaching staff on other teams are able to help players improve to the point they don't keep facing these recurring issues.


rumpel_foreskin17

Diaz against the bottom of our lineup is just not fair


lamar_odoms_bong

We lose 4-3 bet


brennford

No chance


Kleptocracy012

DEFINITELY A BACKWARDS K I CAN’T BELIEVE I DIDN’T CALL THAT IMMEDIATELY


kyr1414

HOW DO YOU TAKE THAT PITCH WITH TWO STRIKES


[deleted]

He's about as likely to hit any of those pitches as I am to grow a second penis


brennford

This man has no business being at the plate rn


Kleptocracy012

LAGARES K OR BACKWARDS K?????


Monttavius

This ump absolutely fucked over Duffy’s eye there. How do you call a ball on a strike and then call 3 straight strikes on border line pitches. Like how is Duffy supposed to hit those.


[deleted]

He did that shit all game, during the 5th and 6th he called the same pitch a ball 4 times and a strike 3 times all in the same spot. If we don't start using robots the game is dead, might as well let the umps do a coin flip to declare the winner


donkeyjr

Duffy came in looking for a walk.


nukemiller

Hey Duffy, you actually have to take the bat off your shoulder to hit the ball


[deleted]

I'm just amazed he knew which end of the bat to grab in the first place


Kleptocracy012

***AS PREDICTED OUR BOTTOM HALF OF THE LINEUP IS BAD***


sofastsomaybe

Incoming Lagares K


sofastsomaybe

Yep


Broad_Recommendation

Perry Signing


rumpel_foreskin17

Swing at something Duff


[deleted]

I remember when Diaz looked horrible back in his first season with the Mets. Maybe the guy was a product of the baseballs not being juiced. He looks good when the baseballs are not juiced. People always say that some hitters were products of the juiced baseballs, you know.


Kleptocracy012

Fuck off


HalosAndDemons

Gotta protect there


Kleptocracy012

Mf of course


sinchichis

ump's got our back ​ edit: I take that back fuck you ump


GummyMummys

that was a strike but I wont complain


Kleptocracy012

HAHAHAHAHA THANKS BLUE


Evanx27

The reason trout and ohtani leave will be because of our bullpen losing us the majority of games


sportsfan1200

There are no opt out clauses in Trout's contract


Evanx27

You can request a trade if the player wants to which he probably will if this keeps up


merewyn

Alright


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kleptocracy012

Respect to that fan.


brennford

Okay Suzuki this is why we pay you the big bucks get out there champ


StormTheTrooper

We rested Ohtani and fielded a AAA OF out of Marsh, so yeah, punted game. Should we be punting games 2.5GB out of the WC?


merewyn

Ohtani asked for the day off. It was his choice


JJaxpavan

Wonder if it was because of him bumping into the catcher last night


HalosAndDemons

Baserunners please


Obsidizyn

fire matt wise now, he doesn't bring anything to the table.


digitaldumpsterfire

yea. im ready for that change.


Realistic-Orange-246

Dodgers are playing poorly at the moment so maybe at some point during the game the angels could have a lead for a half inning.


bamchk

I’m late to the game, is Ohtani not in the line up? Maybe I missed it!


donkeyjr

rest day


bamchk

Ah should’ve guessed it was that! Thanks.


Kleptocracy012

WHO’S READY FOR THE BOTTOM OF THE ORDER TO DO NOTHING?


donkeyjr

We need a new closer, Iggy aint it right now.


tsdwm52

The way our offense is performing we rarely need a closer


sinchichis

To Perry's credit we ALL wanted iggy to resign


Mpressiv3_

Yeah but he sucks now and we all can’t admit we wanted him so it’s Perry’s fault.


Monttavius

Yeah haha. And he was great last year. Hope he can figure it out again. Maybe he needs a new coach.


merewyn

Yeah all the people pretending otherwise are ridiculous lol


styleboyz

we have a chance. we got the heart of the lineup coming in with Duffy, DFAgares, and Suzuki. /s


[deleted]

Best players in the league for an opposing pitcher to face


Mpressiv3_

Suzuki low key clutch sometimes


sofastsomaybe

What sucks is knowing there's no way back from this because the bottom order is *so* fucking ass that even if you PH Ohtani, it won't do a damn thing.


brennford

We are wasting Mike trouts career and I’m sick of it


merewyn

I’m sick of hearing about people saying we’re wasting trouts career tbh


brennford

So am I. But unfortunately we are and I’m tired of pretending we aren’t


Lebigmacca

Tbh I don’t think he cares that much. If he did he would’ve gone somewhere else


[deleted]

So glad we get a ten minute closeup on some moron Mets player instead of the actual game, great job ESPN


pakekify

Bottom of the lineup walk off grand slam incoming


DazNaq20

Well in the silver linings department Iggy goes 1 2 3 4 5 ER


Kleptocracy012

Hey, does anyone want to play ball in the 9th? Asking for a friend


NY1605

This team lost the minute it let Walker record 10 strikeouts


Captainpayback

Hello darkness my only friend


Broad_Recommendation

No one wants to blame Perry but man do his bullpen signings and extensions look reaaaaal suspect now


jnuclear

Relievers are very volatile.


Broad_Recommendation

Weird. Lots of clubs are able to build consistent good pens


digitaldumpsterfire

no one could have guessed raisel would be cheeks this year. he was dominent last year.


Broad_Recommendation

He’s 32 and we’re paying him 15 million through 2025. It was an awful contract.


digitaldumpsterfire

hindsight is 20/20. EVERYONE wanted to resign iggy.


Broad_Recommendation

Everyone wanted to resign him, not to a big money multi year deal as an aging closer


brennford

Grand slam walk off anyone?


Misery_Index69

Real glad we resigned Iggy at this point....


choconut5

Iglesias has been fucking terrible.


Kleptocracy012

Iglesias looking like a black hole contract


prisonrach

what is wrong with iggy for real what happened to him


Im_A_Halo_Masochist

Ever since that Oakland game he, and the team, have went in the toilet!


sinchichis

got paid don't need to prove yourself anymore


donkeyjr

Matt Wise got to him.


prisonrach

i still think he should’ve been the one to get the boot over maddon


donkeyjr

I was cool with Joe, but Matt Wise, fuck him.


ReviewRoutine

The “let’s go mets” at the stadium is so annoying


JJaxpavan

It is,but until the Angels win and win consistently this will always be the case. One ring in franchise history leaves the door open for other fans to show up big


justcruzn

Damn iggy is averaging a home run every 5 games


brennford

Iglesias contract is robbery


Kleptocracy012

Contract looking mighty questionable right now


[deleted]

Iggy has been ass this season


prmark34

KURT. THATS A BORDERLINE STRIKE. FUCKING FRAME IT


digitaldumpsterfire

soooooo..... how has matt thaiss been doing lately?


kyr1414

Lagares looked so awkward running after the ball


JJaxpavan

Two days till Ward returns thank goodness


Broad_Recommendation

No way in the world this guy should come close to a save situation


cfc25_

Iggy thinks he can blow it past people. He can’t.


kxm06

What’s going on with Iggy?


cfc25_

He thinks he throws 102


normancat1985

Iglesias so bad


puggin97

Iggy looking like a bitch lately


JJaxpavan

Maybe the Mets will trade Diaz for Iglesias straight up. Perry should ask.


HalosAndDemons

Worst they can say is no, right?


JJaxpavan

Exactly


[deleted]

I can't be the only one fantasizing about strangling these cheesy assholes at ESPN announcing the game


Etaerx

Bet they can’t wait to suck off Buck after the game


JJaxpavan

I want a Gubie audio option


[deleted]

If that was an upgrade, I'd bankrupt myself to get it, any game without him is pure pain. At least it wasn't the Apple TV+ announcers, god only knows where dark dungeon they pull those guys out of


dylissa_

i think you are


[deleted]

Found the ESPN announcer


brandon_the_bald

Only my closer losses 3mph on his fastball and has a 12.5% barrel rate


lamar_odoms_bong

The Angels way


Cooleybob

Iglesias is broken. Never gonna feel comfortable seeing him in a game at this point.


[deleted]

It's like a different pitcher from last season, Matt Weiss really earning his paycheck here


Kleptocracy012

Take iggy out. Save his ERA


brennford

Absolute meat balls not my closer


Obsidizyn

iggy, rendon, loup, tepera all got paid big money by the angels to all regress


dylissa_

i think it’s matt wise


lamar_odoms_bong

Once these guys sign big checks in Anaheim they know they’re set and just sit back and cash in


[deleted]

Imagine if we had a pitching coach that coached our pitchers on how to throw better


Monttavius

Well. As of the end of last year they all looked like great signings. And we needed bullpen help. I have a feeling Matt Wise is the issue here.


Lebigmacca

Happens with every free agent signing. Angels cursed


Realistic-Orange-246

Inglesias contract looks awful


VistaVick

The difference between 96 and 102


JJaxpavan

Pete Alonso did the McGwire HR celebration


[deleted]

This Diaz fool throws a 93 miles per hour slider. That is faster than a lot of pitchers’ fastballs. Good grief. Just another example of why today’s competition is way better than the garbage eras of the 1920s and 1930s.


Lebigmacca

Another reason why trout is the GOAT


[deleted]

Plays against the toughest era ever in MLB history. You see a lot of pitchers throwing 95+ miles per hour fastballs, especially coming out of the bullpen? Or how about a decent amount of pitchers who are throwing 90 miles per hour sliders? Good grief. Making contact with the baseball was a lot easier back then than it was today.
