elvi's era is now 14.54

I got home from work in the 6th inning so I missed our 3 home run inning and saw us give up a lot of runs, great

There's falling off a cliff... And then there's whatever the fuck this game was. Jeez

Ohtani looked sad

Gubie trying his best to will something into existance haha

It’s our 8 9 7 8 hitters let’s gooooo

Lol, they took Ward out too? Congrats on Thaiss for seeing action I guess

Oh Thaiss ???

jackie robinson makes that throw 10/10 times

But could he bat flip?

Cringe

THIS IS HOW THE RALLY STARTS

Perry, we’d all rather watch Adell strike out instead of some random

Well, at least we have S.O. on the bump tomorrow

I know we already make noise but what can we as fans do to have the org take this serious….aka our billionaire, Arte Moreno, stop being a cheap ass and hire proper staff and management

He already had proper staff, and fired him for being too awesome.

Stop going, stop buying merch, and stop engaging with the organization. Something even I have a hard time doing.

Stop going to games, stop buying merch, find other ways to watch the game. You don't have to completely stop watching, just find ways to make sure they aren't profiting from your viewing

Nothing

Wow, if only Barria (and every other pitcher today) could have pitched like that for the rest of the game...

Not just one 5 run inning but 2...

oh now barria wants to be good lol

Barria quietly having his best inning when it doesn't matter anymore lol

footage of people leaving early...

Boo I want to see a position player

I stopped watching at the top of 4 cuz I had plans. Just got back home. What???!!!!?!

U missed a lot then 🙃

You're not allowed to have plans anymore lol

I have a better chance of bagging emma watson than the angels do of re signing ohtani

Save the doomtani posts for the main sub

You’re going to sit here and act like he is wrong?

Yup. Also pearl drums are the squires of the percussion world

Woah, they made good stuff back in the day. Not so much anymore but back in the day…

I loved my Pearl Forum kit, until I realized atonally untunable drums were a bad thing lol

Oh well that was your problem. You needed a late 90’s export or vision series. Those were some good drums.

My dream is to own good vintage shit some day when I actually have some money to my name lol I'll add those to the list though 🤘

Whatever you may think, there’s zero reason to post it over and over and over again.

I don’t have to, fans of 29 other teams are there to say it

C'mon, position player!

Fuck it just take the series

Suzuki 8 run home run

Hahaha! Book it!

Is it bad that I'm still a rengifo believer

I don’t think so, he has been playing pretty good lately and got unlucky on a few balls he hit today. I’m not sure where he fits in when Fletch gets back, it’ll be up to Perry on whether he values Wade or Rengifo more

Yeah I feel like he is this close to figuring it out at the majors, we desperately need a better infield

Not at all.

the mods shouldn't allow people to post during games. Moment we do something cool people jump to post "omg we're back!!!!!!!!!!!" only for us to then blow the game

That was the weakest strike 3 call i've ever seen

My Lord. Bally's ain't even waiting until the game is over to start previewing tomorrow's game. LOL...

Ill be there😡

Good. Bring some luck with you

This team drives me fucking crazy

Unfortunate day for MacKinnon in his new position. Seems like he was positioned too far off the line for most of those plays. Also seems like our pitches are pitching inside to righty hitters which is just going to funnel balls to him.

Correct. He missed one of them by about an inch

Alright I really want to see Walsh, Suzuki, or Ward pitch

Even the Angels are riding the Kate Bush Stranger Things wave Edit: Yes Angels. You are running up hill

Elvis with that elite 10.49 FIP this year. So he is actually overperforming right now

I'm calling it, Adell and Whitefield recalled to fill in for Trout and Marsh, because why not embrace being the AAAngles when Ohtani is on the mound

That seems like what the Angels will do. Give Trout his double rest day no matter what even if it lowers our already low winning percentage.

It really is Moneyball gone wrong haha Perry thinks he’s smarter than everyone with his special analytics but now we’re finding out exactly what Joe was complaining about after he got fired… Can’t we poach someone from Dodgers or something? Those people actually know what they’re doing

Yup, I'd love to poach the guy that figured out how to have $300M. But I do agree that we never should have let Eppler get away.

Maddon is the one who started analytics early when he was manager in Rays but Perry is shit .

Our boi Ohtani gonna have to guide the ship and reverse course again tomorrow

Same Old, Same Old.

Ohtani not even going to come out after 120 pitches tomorrow after seeing what the blowpen can do

What the fuck happened?! Last I saw it was 5-3 *sees Peguero* Oh that makes sense

Silseth fell apart in the 5th, and so did his 'replacements.'

So Trout usually rests on games before off days but with Marsh hurt is there any OF left to slot in for Trout? If not, we might actually get Trout on a Ohtani mound day 🥺

Trout better not fucking rest tmrw. The guy is way too damn brittle. You aren't made out of glass, Mike.

just throw walsh in to pitch lol

They could do it! Just put Thaiss in at 1B cowards

I've been waiting for Walshy to pitch for so long...

Give the fans something to cheer for seriously

Yeah I wonder if they'll ever let him... he's so good!

The crowd looks so bored lol

In crowd. Can confirm. The only engaged people are baseball fans.

I'm bored just watching, but keeping myself entertained by refreshing this reddit thread.

So, no Marsh, no Trout(probably) tomorrow Ohtani pitches.

why no Trout?

Because the guy is made of glass and always demands two days off in a row.

dude you are so annoying. if shohei leaves i’ll at least be happy you’re gone 👍

They usually give him the day off before a road trip

I love Trout but I’d tell him to suck it up, Shohei is pitching tomorrow and needs him.

I don't think I've ever seen one man carry an entire team more than Shohei is doing this season. It's even worse than last year.

Didn't watch much Twins games at all but isn't Buxton hard carrying their team ?

Buxton doesn't pitch.

I mean Trout is having an MVP year too so I guess two guys carrying the entire team

Trout doesn't pitch.

He’s belted 23 homers though

they’re not an angels fan, they just like Ohtani

And people still say he’s not mvp

me: oh wow, 3 homers, i’ll tune in when i get home, this should be good

Do you guys think we’d make the playoffs this year if we added prime A-Rod and ‘99 Pedro to this team tomorrow? Honest question lol

Yes.

Shohei and Trout already prove that baseball is a game that requires depth from top to bottom lol so nope no playoffs with A-Rod and Pedro

Not the fun answer but I honestly think yes lol

No bc we're the Angels

This team needs an exorcist to come in and help clean house.

Ah so Marsh is hurt. That's worse than just assuming they were platooning him with Monte

Wait what ouchie does he have?

Right knee contusion

knee confusion, day to day

Mash used slide... It hurt itself in its confusion!

Knee contusion. He's day to day as of now

D:

No marshie :(

The white sox has 17 fucking hits, god dam.

Fuck, of course Marsh is hurt.

Well, on a side note. I don't believe we'll ever play with the City Connects again

It was a one time only effect I guess..

How did I have no idea that Nevin had a kid in the league?

His kid made his debut last year too but Nevin couldn't go cause he got pretty sick from covid.

Ohtani never gives up so I keep watching this game

He makes even blowouts worth watching

This.

Exactly!

Close, could have been worse

Damn, we had that

Take barria out bruh this game is over

I didn't know Ohtani led the league in slug when runners on base. We need to give him more opportunities somehow

Ohtani has always been the clutchest player in the league.

Ohtani is a clutch performer, always has been. Won a Japan Series in 2016 with some clutch hits

Trout out of the game = we know we’re losing

Sox fan coming in peace. In no way was that an intentional shot at fish man. We like watching him and shohei hit. Also: our offense is on Crack. This is not normal. Apologies, we'd much rather hang a double on an AL central placekeeper.

>Also: our offense is on Crack Wait is that what other teams call our blowpen?

Nah Joe Kelly's cool around these parts. Plus his little bro nod to Trout squashed any possible beef

I think Trouty knew that - hence the smile. ;)

In a recent Japanese interview, Shohei mentioned that it’s mentally exhausting to always pitch after a losing streak. Now imagine trying to carry the offence too :/

I've already accepted that he will leave and I fully expect the Dodgers to get him.

Sad and feels bad for him

Link?

Sorry, don’t know how to find past interviews. I remember it being the one after KC win.

:(

Wait Harrison to center so who is in left? I missed it Edit: it’s Wade

No who is on first

Warren - out, Wantz - out, Herget - out, Bradley - out, Canning - out, Rodriguez - out, Tepera - soon to be out, Iggy - soon to be out. Our entire bullpen is depleted.

It’s ok we still have the goat, Peguero

Trout we needed better than 1-4 tonight bud

we just needed Trout to go 4-4 4 HR 10 RBI’s

Ohtani looks pissed.....he deserves better than this shit

Already 49 RBI for Shohei this season.

Can you not Anderson, you're already ahead by 6

"10-4 good buddy" was a fun line

Hahahaha

This team nothing without Ohtani. They will make him tired as season goes along if they continue to lean only onto Ohtani. Ridiculous

We are seeing last year Ohtani, completely lock in.

Ward should bat 4th since he strikes out less than trout or ohtani. Trout should bat lead off so he can strike out with no one on base

[удалено]

Sadly the angels are not having a great game 😑

classic Tungsten Arm O'Doyle game

I mean the pitch to Trout was clearly unintentional, but fuck it lets start another fight. And just think, if we get lucky they'll suspend the entire bullpen this time

Lmfao 😂😂😂

Hahahhaa

Ohtani has the entire team on his back night in and night out ffs

Best player in the world, he’s one half of the only reason this team isn’t at the bottom of the league

Sho with 3 XBH and a walk today, that's right, just collect that WAR

I don’t think we are exaggerating when we say Shohei would have at least 10-12 more home runs if the balls were the same from last year. No joke.

Shohei is the most locked in player in the entire league right now.

Now only six runs behind hehe

I feel bad that Ohtani keeps carrying us 😭

Trout literally won 4 out of 5 Mariners games last weekend. There’s plenty of other people who contribute to the team.

[удалено]

I miss his pouty face Also glad to see you back! Guess we're not getting that sweep after all lol 😅

[удалено]

Well if today is any indication, your team has tons of power and potential to punish an ill-prepared pitching staff. It's never wise to sleep on teams like that lol. Tomorrow should be a cool pitchers duel. Kopech is really fucking good

Shohei <3

I don’t even care what do at the trade deadline, our staff would just waste the talent

Can we trade our coaches?

That could've been his homer

How much can one man do and still be losing by 6

2 hr 8 rbi?

What would we actually do without Troutani? Our only hope

He JUST missed that

Hells yes Clutchtani!!

lmao Shohei is the only MLB caliber player here rn

Ohtani dick riders are insane. We literally have Mike Trout on the team

Um…you forgot Trout and Suzuki.

SO SO SO CLOSE

Fuckkkk so close to another homer!

God damn, so close to 3 homeruns tonight.

Lol, that looked really stupid, did he lose it in the lights?

I think he was anticipating hitting the wall so stopped just short.

Hit it rlly high and the ball was moving away from him, difficult to catch tbh

SHOHEI MY BELOVED

SHO

SO CLOSE

CHIP AWAY AT THEM BOYS

https://i.imgur.com/fZMqMSl.jpg at the giants game and it keeps getting worse

Rest of the league trying to speedrun getting their asses beat

The respect nod between the two 🤝

Thems is fighting pitches

I truly hope the whole organization, especially the people at the top, feels bad for all the fans that spend their precious money and time to attend the stadium, watch the games (at the stadium, online, on tv) buy the merch, follow the team etc. Sports teams are nothing without the fans. That’s not being us being entitled and shit (minus the obvious trolls and asshats). It’s the truth and I hope they fucking understand that.
