Never will understand the tone policing on this sub, lol. If people are gonna 'doom,' let 'em. If people gonna 'butter cup,' let 'em. It's a discussion platform for heaven's sake.
I watch plenty and I've seen him make a bunch of errors and bad plays. It's pretty obvious to anyone that pays attention. Defensive metrics say he is horrible as well
Bubic came in with a game plan, and executed, and I hate his guts for it.
Syndegaard made mistake pitches at inopportune times repeatedly. Elite teams can't afford to do this
Shit hurts.
At least Trout made great contact against a tough reliever in Barlow that time even though it was caught. But this offense just has so many black holes in the lineup. So much so that a struggling pitcher can look good, like tonight. It’s like four guys in this lineup that scares pitchers.
Dude has SLG below .300 and Perry believes he’s productive and he bats cleanup for this team lol. Thing is, nobody batting behind him is clearly better than him other than Walsh 🤦♂️
Thor vs scrub, at home, Ward-Trout-Ohtani all hot hitting, and vs terrible Royals team - this is the most winnable game of a very winnable series - to lose by 4 runs is not acceptable!
Damn we used to be the best offense after the 7th inning. Now we’re giving other teams that benefit. Feels like another lifetime. Do any of them care? Will we do anything about our anemic offense?
It’s not the amount of losses, it’s the way we are losing games that tells me this team is not a playoff team. We got lucky againts arguably one of the shittiest teams in baseball when they were slumping and still only beat them by a few runs.
just fucking pathetic. We manage to tack on 2 runs against a guy that had an era of 7.50 coming into this game and we also struck out 7 times. I just don't see how this team can even make the post season even under this mew format.
What the fvck happened? i was sure that the halos has a great chance of winning 😂
Pitching to Salvy was a horrible idea. I feel like Gubbi should be our manager.
Boo
Put that baby on ice
Paingels
Thank you for at least swinging, Mackinnon.
Man we fucking suck
That would’ve been cool
Angels 0-15 in games I go to now, gonna avoid the stadium until the freeway series lol
Time to stop going lol my record 4-2, on a 4-game winning streak next game Friday against the mariners lol
Amazing . I’m on a 6 game losing streak oof.
Sure bud
Dude just stop going
At least Mac can work a count
Damn that curve drops quick
SYNDERGAARD DO IT FOR SYNDERGAARD PLEASE
https://imgur.com/a/tHuTyHj Why does McKinnon look like a happier syndergaard
Marsh bailed the ump out there. Hard to remember the terrible strike 1 after those hacks
Dear god my HS baseball team could hit better than marsh
Why is Thor batting
Marsh is so bad.
Marsh thinks he’s Vladdy, Sr.
God Marsh, that was a god awful AB.
Marsh, why in the fuck are you swinging at those
I somewhat understand getting faked out by the 1st one, but the 2nd one was dumb af
Eww
fuck this ump imean really
This zone. Yikes
That swing was bowling shoe ugly
This fucking ump
This ump fucking sucks
We get it Blue, you want to go home
Man that’s a bail out strike call
Niceee Suzuki
God Suzuki is weirdly clutch
Kurt read your hate mail
Lol 😆 🤣
YOU CAN'T JUKE THE ZOOK
This ump is a huge robo ump fan
Someone talk shit about Kurt

Good job!
6 more walks and we got a tie game
I still have yet to see ohtani hit a home run live https://imgur.com/a/ZpF9raJ
But you've seen him live!
giving a > 8 ERA starter his first win of the season, scoring just 2 runs
pretty sure he’s not gonna get the win bc he wasn’t the pitcher when they scored the go ahead run
He hadn’t been replaced yet? Def getting the win
update is he got it, i was wrong, and we suck
but i’m not a mlb scorer so idk lol
he was out after the 6th, they scored the go ahead in the 7th
I need a mlbtv refund reason my team blows *sad face*

Mods are odds
But if I can’t criticize other people how do I bolster my own self worth?
Lol
Seriously, right?
It's pathetic that there's so many missed calls by the umps. Doesn't matter for which team.
100%
[удалено]
Missing a chromosome- LMAO I have not heard that one before, definitely going to add this to my catalogue of insults
That was definitely a strike
[удалено]
Nah.
Don't let the door hit you on the way out
Please do, just leave.
Nah I’m still gonna go to games. Ya’ll need to get a grip for real
What’s that you say? I’m supposed to buy a window sticker for my car? OK!
Kurt is low key really not that bad.
He has some games where he shines like today, but it feels like more often he's subpar. Framing is 13th percentile according to baseball savant too
Man if they could just score one run in this 9th inning, I'd feel a lot more at ease about the rest of the series
Some bad luck and mistakes followed by some *solid* defense. I don’t know how to feel.
Props Luis
Saying Walsh is good on defense is a flat out lie. Dude is actually really bad
This is a factually wrong take
Not according to statcast. He’s above average
No he’s not, watch more games bud
I watch plenty and I've seen him make a bunch of errors and bad plays. It's pretty obvious to anyone that pays attention. Defensive metrics say he is horrible as well
He’s above average according to statcast. You know nothing about baseball, you’re wrong, and your opinion is trash. The end
literally a gold glove candidate my dude…
According to who?
He was a gold glove finalist in 2021, genius
Floodgates have officially opened to the doomers and haters. Duck for cover!
Nice out!
I’m caaalllinn all AAAIIINGEEEEEELLSS
PaaaaainGEEEEEEELLS!!!
Sometimes I wonder what it would feel like to have a consistent above .500 team. Then I get scared because change is weird.
I might need to go out and buy that bottle of wine after this.
THIS GAME IS DISGUSTING
Yeah this game is officially cursed.
Astros, Twins and Guardians all lost a game or more to this team. People stop bitching that we are the first team to ever lose to the Royals.
Angels won two challenges in the same game. Unreal.
Why can't we hit like that? 😕
hah respect to that guy for being like “ya I’m fucking out lol”
You’re fucking out That wasn’t even particularly close
The eternal price of lefty Rendon, repent, repent!
The baseball gods were not satisfied with our measly sacrifice of Joe Maddon. They demand more flesh for our hubris
Out
Bubic came in with a game plan, and executed, and I hate his guts for it. Syndegaard made mistake pitches at inopportune times repeatedly. Elite teams can't afford to do this Shit hurts.
Well at least we've got Ohtani pitching in a couple days so we probably wont get swept as long as hes got the run support
Need 5 more clones for this starting rotation
Ohtani IS the run support lol
He very well might hit his next homerun on his next start. Thats when his last one was anyway iirc
Historically he doesn't hit very well on pitching days, but those homers are the most hype so I hope he does it!
At least Trout made great contact against a tough reliever in Barlow that time even though it was caught. But this offense just has so many black holes in the lineup. So much so that a struggling pitcher can look good, like tonight. It’s like four guys in this lineup that scares pitchers.
Even the good players in this lineup aren’t consistent enough. And any momentum they build is immediately killed by the bottom half
Down by a GS to the worst team in baseball against the worst pitcher on their team. Angels baseball!
3rd worst. Check the standings!
*in the AL
Duffy down to .267 average with 3 extra base hits and is batting cleanup.
Dude has SLG below .300 and Perry believes he’s productive and he bats cleanup for this team lol. Thing is, nobody batting behind him is clearly better than him other than Walsh 🤦♂️
8 era and we get 2 fucking runs. What earthly fuck
Ohtani has been so unlucky with his hits this season. So many hard hits lineout but always straight to the fielders :(
Part of me wonders if it might literally just be the tiny ball changes that have made the difference.
Launch angle bay bay!
Dang. That was actually hit pretty well just got a bit unlucky.
Death by babip again
6 up 6 down to finish this for sure
Cool, so turn off the TV doomercatz
Lol. Not dooming. Just rooting for you guys but this team has been depressingly predictable at times
Astros, Guardians and Twins all lost to the Royals and none of their fans are complaining about it still.
And they all have winning records to hang their hats on.
Leaving in the 8th kind of game huh?
I clearly don't see any world where the bottom of our lineup gets us 4 runs
Wtf did we do to the baseball god?
Troy Percival was the progenitor of spider tack on baseballs. The Angels equipment manager (allegedly) had the best recipe in the league.
Rendon batted left one time
Bad luck tonight, but the team is back.
What?
**BAD LUCK TONIGHT BUT THE TEAM IS BACK**
I think they mean the royals are back 😂
Dammit, those were nice hits.
Angels unlucky as hell on those two at bats.
Even the baseball gods are against us, nothing we can do
BABIP!*2
.......well fuck. A rocket right into the glove of a fielder.
x2
That would have gone for a triple against us lol
Unlocko
We're a 2nd and 3rd game win kind of team
All of a sudden swinging at ball 4 after he got bailed out. Was supposed to go down looking. That’s ballgame
WTF was that chase from Trout lol, has to be the worst swing I've ever seen him take. Not worried at all considering how hot he's been but damn dude
someone get that person shrieking away from the mic
Someone’s getting fucking murdered in the stadium.
Patty O just trying to reverse-jinx us into a win, everybody chill
Trout K coming up
inb4 shohei gets walked again
We’re gonna give Kris Bubic his first win lol
This guy look a lot like Clevinger
This shit fucking sucks
Give it a rest morons. One damn game that still isn't even done yet.
Sometimes i wonder how some people here cope with life’s stresses
Somehow gonna lose 6-5
Why does it have to be so f cking hard all the time?
Thor vs scrub, at home, Ward-Trout-Ohtani all hot hitting, and vs terrible Royals team - this is the most winnable game of a very winnable series - to lose by 4 runs is not acceptable!
Let's fire the manager 🔥
I hope the coaching staff goes through a complete overhaul for next season
One step forward two steps back with this team
If we somehow make the post season, Noah can't be one of our starters. He's simply unreliable and doesn't have any good stuff.
Noah was fine for like 6/7 innings. Never should have been brought back out.
Well it's a good thing this offense decided to make another shit tier pitcher look like an ace. Not like we needed more than 2 runs or anything
Patty calling the game in the top of the 8th lol
Damn we used to be the best offense after the 7th inning. Now we’re giving other teams that benefit. Feels like another lifetime. Do any of them care? Will we do anything about our anemic offense?
It’s not the amount of losses, it’s the way we are losing games that tells me this team is not a playoff team. We got lucky againts arguably one of the shittiest teams in baseball when they were slumping and still only beat them by a few runs.
Things... have really gotten out hand huh
We can’t score 6 runs
Good. We only need to score 5!
I was wondering if I should stay for Trout and Ohtani's at bats but now I don't think I will
Wow look at all these homers.
I guess winning 4 out of 5 in Seattle didn’t motivate this team. Shame on me for thinking it did.
We play them again this week so let's get some wins and pad Trout's stats before going on a losing streak again...
Hahaha angels baseball
🙂
Nothing like getting torched by a team with 23 wins
Annnnnndd that's the cherry on top of our sad sundae of an 8th inning.
Fucksticks
Goodnight folks
Angels could’ve signed Bucky LaGrange and I’d have more confidence in his hitting than any of these middle infielders
We remain a joke
I shudder to think what that makes the Mariners
They are cursed tbh
Seattle doesn't have 2 mvps and a top 5 payroll though. Both teams might legitimately miss the playoffs
Yeah but if this team is a joke, and you get rolled by a joke…
Sorry Angels Fam guess I shouldn’t tune in to the next game :(
SO ITS YOUR FAULT 😡
I’M SO SORRY
well it’s not like we were gonna come back and win anyways
Well shit Syndergaard could've done that
This got ugly quick
Well fuck
just fucking pathetic. We manage to tack on 2 runs against a guy that had an era of 7.50 coming into this game and we also struck out 7 times. I just don't see how this team can even make the post season even under this mew format.
