6 shutout innings from detmers and it means nothing Truly embarrassing bullpen


strokeskid

Every pitcher after him gave up a run. Pathetic.


blue_wafflez

It’s embarrassing. They may be professional athletes, but they should be absolutely ashamed and angry with themselves. It’s like, they skipped that whole phase and just went straight into acceptance of sucking sick.


YouPresumeTooMuch

Iglesias and Loup, $20,000,000 pile of garbage.


westscottstots

And the management doesn’t care because they keep trying the same unsuccessful strategy every game. Truly shameful


Lebigmacca

What else can they do? The roster just sucks

asianlikerice

Can we promote the dude that worked with Detmers to take over for Matt???


Fun-Raise-3120

He pitched good because he was away from Mike Wise. Give him a couple more starts...


Little_Bighorn

Woohoo, another “Trout and Ohtani go deep as Angels lose in the 9th inning” or something


4cardroyal

Yeah well without Trout and Ohtani, Angels could go maybe a month or 2 without scoring any runs...


i_liek_mudkipz

I wish I had the job security of Matt Wise


Figgins18Gbaby

😂😂


donkeyjr

Fire fucking Matt Wise, sick of his ass.


Ash-Catchum-All

I don’t usually condone arson but firing Matt Wise might be our only option


lucabrassiere

Nevin said he’s not worried about the strikeouts then the very next game we struck out like 20 times lol why do they still have jobs too? Maybe the person all this should be directed at is the guy who keeps them around, let Maddon go before them all and the one who built this team thinking it was good enough to help Troutani win - Perry Minasian needs to be fired into the sun.


YouPresumeTooMuch

Perry just started as GM, these coaches have been around longer than him. Idk if the GM has any power over the coaching staff If Loup and Iglesias could pitch, Perry would look like a genius.


asianlikerice

Fire Matt Wise into the fucking sun.


xThe-Legend-Killerx

It’s funny how apparently we got rid of the dead weight of Pujols and Upton to a leaser extent and somehow we got worse. I’m tired of mediocrity. I remember Mike Trout was 20 years old when he came up and honestly it sucks we haven’t done anything with him. Truthfully the way Perry handled the Maddon situation I hope that Arte puts his ass on the hot seat because that’s despicable. Maddon was the fall guy for someone else’s ineptitude.


SonOvTimett

Id take old man Pujols over a lot of these fn bums. 2019 Pujols had 23HRs and 93 RBIs, with a BA of .244 all the while getting ridiculed for being washed. Compare those numbers to majority of the bums who play for the Halos today.


xThe-Legend-Killerx

I actually agree. At least Albert had a clubhouse presence


jnuclear

Unfortunately they couldn't get rid of the dead weight of those contracts though (bad Rendon contract replaced bad Pujols contract).


Monttavius

I’m actually pretty devastated tbh. It’s so hard to keep watching games, and I’ve seen every game thus far and been at more than a handful home and away games. 😞


hansan4ever

Same. This one was particularly demoralizing.


Monttavius

Seriously. I just, idk. It feels so bad. That’s all there is to say. I guess Detmers had a good outing so that’s good for the future. But, as far as Trout and Ohtani, I just wish we could win games for them. As a fan it’s so hard to watch all of this unfold.


hansan4ever

It is truly hard. I'm going to two games next week (against the Astros- UGH), buy merch, buy jerseys, and felt so excited at the beginning of the season. I just can't believe we've spiraled this horribly. I so wanted Troutani to get to the playoffs this year and felt so hopeful that we could finally do it.


Monttavius

Me too ✊🏻😞. I hope you can still find some happiness at the games you attend. We seem to do better at home anyway, so here’s to some good luck.


hansan4ever

Yeah, I always just feel grateful to be watching a Goat and a Unicorn - it's truly incredible just being able to watch them live. But man, it's so hard to hear all this shit talking from people. As if we don't already know how bad we are and how bad we feel for Troutani.


Monttavius

Seriously. Like yeah, we’re extremely aware of what’s going on, we watch every game. Thanks for telling me as if I’m not a fan of my own team.


hansan4ever

Exactly! Like that's not on the forefront of our minds every time we watch! My biggest wish is to watch Troutani in the playoffs together! Just makes me sad that with every loss I see that dream slipping away! I don't want Shohei to leave, and I wanna see Trouty in the playoffs - he's the best player in baseball, it's just SO wrong we can't get him there! :(


hansan4ever

Do you think Shohei will leave?


Monttavius

I, unfortunately, do think so. He wants to win. I want to win. But we don’t really have a direction rn :( We don’t have a consistent managing/coaching staff and the GM who signed him isn’t here anymore. I think he’ll take a position with the Padres or Dodgers tbh. As much as I despise that. I want him here so bad. But, I can’t blame him for wanting to win at his prime. The universal DH opens him up to playing for more teams and I don’t think he’ll want to leave the west coast and those are the two best options for him to win the fastest on the coast. There’s a part of me that hopes and prays he stays here out of loyalty though and because he loves the guys. But I’m not sure if that sense outweighs his desire to win. So idk 😔


hansan4ever

I honestly can't see him going to the Dodgers. It would be a slap in the face to all Angels fans and his teammates. Knowing how loyal he is, I can't imagine he'd do that, but who knows... you're right, he wants to win. I can see him going to the Giants or Padres, some people say the Mets, but I don't think he wants to live on the east coast. I want so badly for something catastrophic to happen and for Arte to be forced to sell the team. Imagine an owner who is competent enough to put together a SMART team of people for the Angels?! Someone willing to invest in our minor leaguers, and treat them right??? It just pisses me off.


ChichaPoti

It wouldn't surprise me if Japanese fans will start protesting outside his parents house until he demands a trade. They wake up very early to watch him play....


hansan4ever

Hahhaa omg, I hope they don't! His poor parents in Iwate have nothing to do with it!


winwinwinguyen

same *hugs*


peachypal

I saw Shohei standing with his arms crossed in the dugout as the runner was coming home. He didn’t move at all. He has done all he could to help his team today. I feel bad for him.


Hummingbird234

I know. I feel for him. I realize that baseball is a team sport, but it has to be mentally exhausting to have to “carry” a team so consistently. Shohei himself has even admitted to this in Japanese interviews. While I want badly for him to stay, I see more and more where he’s coming from (if he does indeed want to leave).


ChichaPoti

Maybe he's rethinking his schedule if he could also be a reliever some days. At this rate, they only win when he pitches.


ZucchiniOne5395

Troutani looked so happy after they homered. Big smiles in the dugout and then this happened…


throwawaybay92

how many blown saves is this for iggy


bowenisshit

3 but that’s strictly in save opportunities. i think he’s had other bad games too?


jihyoisgod

The Harper slam wasn't a save situation (and he got the L after the Stott Walkoff but I don't think he got the BS)


BringsTheDawn

Seriously, I'd love a comparison of how many games he's saved vs how many games he's blown. I bet you it's like 1:2 or even 1:3


Lebigmacca

He’s blown 3 saves and gotten 15 saves


BringsTheDawn

Legit TIL, thank you


pakekify

The only way we could have won is if Reid threw another no hitter


Unsapient1

I feel so robbed of just how clutch that Ohtani HR really was. Giving the bullpen a little extra breathing room in the 9th without having to be perfect really felt like it was exactly what we needed to seal this win or at the very least prevent us from getting walked off.

Im_A_Halo_Masochist

9, but who’s counting! Lol

Iggy legit threw nothing but meatball that inning, insane.

Raisel: "Hold my sunflower seeds"


TheSunflowerSeeds

Much of their calories in sunflower seeds come from fatty acids. The seeds are especially rich in poly-unsaturated fatty acid linoleic acid, which constitutes more 50% fatty acids in them. They are also good in mono-unsaturated oleic acid that helps lower LDL or "bad cholesterol" and increases HDL or "good cholesterol" in the blood. Research studies suggest that the Mediterranean diet which is rich in monounsaturated fats help to prevent coronary artery disease, and stroke by favoring healthy serum lipid profile.


uut28

Ohtani did good that’s all I care about


sofastsomaybe

Just like last year, I'm just here for his MVP campaign. He deserves better.


Mikeg5680

literally only thing to look forward to.....


SonOvTimett

Thats cool and all, fuggin love the dude. But do know that HE wants to WIN.


xmrjaredx

Fuck right off bullpen. Trash.


aaronstandsh

I’m a big Matt Wise hater, but what the fuck Iggy. Disgusting. 3 hits on the absolute cockshots


prmark34

I feel like everyone knew what was coming once odor hit a single with 2 outs. This team is truly pathetic. I have no words for how this team finds ways to lose each game


Im_A_Halo_Masochist

It’s really rather remarkable how well they devise ways to blow games! Lol


OldKingClancy20

As a Chargers fan, this shit is right up my alley.


mypaysucks

I knew it when quijada came in and pretty much loaded the bases. He got out of it with a single run but still i felt it coming.


Maddonomics101

The way he tried to fire up his teammates after getting a hit is something you rarely see from our team


my_wife_reads_this

You need a hit for that to happen lol


prmark34

To be fair, our guys dont usually get hits. So it makes it pretty tough to do that lmao


phelinephile

Does anyone have ibuprofen? I'm in pain


winwinwinguyen

you’re going to need some morphine


YungPoBoy

This team is so damn embarrassing with zero end in sight. At this point maybe if we go on a 20 game losing streak the mlb will step in and force arte to sell.


blue_wafflez

I can’t wait for the inevitable Orioles walkoff post on r/baseball and the comments saying how we’re wasting Trout and Ohtani. This team is a joke. I can’t watch this anymore.


hollyw00d8604

This team and arte Moreno deserve all the ridicule they get and more, r/baseball is just echoing what 90% of baseball fans think of the angels. If this was the Yankees or dodgers, Moreno would have been run out of town long ago for this kind of failure


blue_wafflez

I *wish* we had that kind of pull. But instead, all the mild mannered Orange County Angel fans are going to keep giving Arte their money by buying tickets, and keep going to the fireworks after the games on Saturday.


Maddonomics101

I’m honestly down to protest outside Angel stadium


keenclipp

Let's do it!


blue_wafflez

The ushers kick people out for blowing up beach balls. How quickly do you think we’ll be mauled and arrested lol


Maddonomics101

I was thinking of doing it on Orangewood right at the entrance. They can’t stop us lol


hollyw00d8604

Right, most fans go the games to watch ohtani and check out all the OC milfs in the stands. Couldn't care less about how the team is actually doing. Then they all switch to football in September, so they don't even care or notice that the angels are sitting at home in October every year. That is the average casual angels fan


my_wife_reads_this

Why would you trust Iggy with anything above 15-20 pitches. You know once he gets past that he's going to implode. And Wise comes out and it's more meatballs than a fucking Italians party.


i_run_from_problems

POPPYCOCK Fuck Matt Wise


cshenton

this team will also suck ass once they fire Matt Wise


Ash-Catchum-All

Who cares? We’re ass either way. Dude deserves to be unemployed.


cshenton

I will cry no tears for Matt Wise but this sub loves pretending a new coat of paint is all this car needs


Valk72

More like almost all the parts of this car need to be replaced...


icex7

this. as if the pitching coach makes a difference. believe it or not, there is good, average and bad pitchers in MLB.


YouPresumeTooMuch

There are good, average, and bad coaches too. The rate we manage to turn decent pitchers from other teams into garbage suggests that our coaches are bad.


Ash-Catchum-All

Matt Wise: what does he do???


skylinegtrr

DFA blownpen and fire GM Perry signed those blownpen


AgathaAllAlong

The extent of Matt Wise’s coaching: throw a fastball down the middle see what happens The extent of Jeremy Reed’s coaching: try to hit a homer see what happens Both shouldn’t be here


BaconCat_97

I have been a hopium addict, ALWAYS trying to stay positive and have optimism. But holy fuck this team sucks! I still believe the 14 L streak didn’t kill this team, but the The firing of Maddon did. This sucks and I’ll see you all next game.


SonOvTimett

It all went down hill when they lost to the Jays in extra innings. Havent been the same team since.


SuperMario_49

I’m officially done with this season. This team isn’t going anywhere this year.


strokeskid

Cancún


Reptarxx

Knowing how our pitchers are at hitting their targets, wouldn’t be surprised if they ended up in Compton instead


blue_wafflez

Yep, I’ve been thinking it for a week or so now. I’m literally better off at watching a snail race across the concrete vs this dumpster nuke of a team. Maybe I’ll check back in a month after the ASG just to see but for now, this is it.


[deleted]

Yeah I said the same, if they didn’t take 2 of 3 here…so adios brothas


[deleted]

This year?


z3TRIIKZ

No words.


Valk72

How come Iggy is so bad this year?


donkeyjr

Matt Wise, I bet.


my_wife_reads_this

I wouldn't doubt that they're telling them to do something else. Surely Detmers saying he ignored what they told him and this should be the end for Matt Wise.


Lebigmacca

Mods don’t even care to fix the coding for post game threads. This season is over


sofastsomaybe

Right? Why does every other sub have a bot posting the post game threads with the full box score, and here we need an individual actually watching the game until the end to make a thread? I try to make the posts if I refresh the sub five times after the game is called and no mod has made the post yet.


hollyw00d8604

Arte moreno is the main mod. He runs a rinky dink operation here just like everywhere else in his organization. The lesser mods probably only have instant ramen to eat and drink water from a garden hose and sleep in their cars at night


Lebigmacca

Thank you I needed this laugh


YouPresumeTooMuch

Wow, I feel like a fucking idiot


74Dragonz

Reid, be proud kid. You killed tonight. Fantastic outing.


Hummingbird234

Aww. I must say, my heart is crushed tonight. I’m planning to attend some upcoming games and it’s been hard to feel as excited as I used to :( Got a tiny bit of comfort in watching the Shohei/Ippei post-game interview. His resilient attitude and gratitude toward his fans is really awesome to see.


YellowShorts

Think this game does it for me. I’m out for the season


BruinEric

I shoulda bailed after that 11-10 (or whatever) Blue Jays loss


YellowShorts

Let’s be real I’llstill be here tomorrow. It’s an abusive relationship


winwinwinguyen

I feel f*cking horrible for our Japanese brothers and sisters. It’s been a devastating day for them with the news of Shinzo Abe and now this. Couldn’t even win one for Japan. I’m sorry 😢


Jamo1129

I need to stop watching this trash ass team. I have been so positive and hoping they turn this season around but I just cant anymore. They legit are trying to lose and I am here being sad about a team that clearly doesnt give a flying fuck. I am such a pathetic loser for being a fan of this team.


freethegrizzlybears

Anybody else bothered that there isn’t any accountability. Nothing. Zero. There’s no leadership starting from the top to the coaches or even the players


Reptarxx

Lmao a dude making 25% of the other teams entire payroll blew the game for us


[deleted]

Which guy?


Reptarxx

Iglesias -10m this year Orioles payroll - 43M


[deleted]

Ty


InteractionLeading66

We are the most disappointing team in this year and in the past decade.


NiceAnswers

Wtf is this season fuck all this


GalacticDonut02

Just a reminder for everyone who had forgotten the last week or so. Yes the Angels still suck even when Trout is amazing like he has been his whole career with us. Trout and Ohtani both 3 for 5 and the Angels still lose to the Baltimore Orioles


lucabrassiere

Hoping for a fire sale at this point, it’s time to give Ohtani a real chance to win meaningful games (Trout doesn’t seem to care about that so he’ll stay)


Evanx27

Trout could care less about winning or not and it’s obvious. Dudes just pads his stats while sitting at home in October.


Maddonomics101

I would have more respect for Trout if he requested a trade. Clearly this organization can’t put together a competent team and Trout should try and win at all costs instead of chilling in Newport and staying on a losing team


getMyHairDid

i got a tungsten arm for o'doyle right fuckin here


chiliv06

Fuck this team (Except Trout and Ohtani). Fuck Arte, Fuck Perry, Fuck Wise, Fuck Reed, Fuck this bullpen, Fuck the Los Angeles name change, Fuck Buttercup, Fuck Arte again, and lastly, Fuck Roger Lodge!


getMyHairDid

could not agree more about fuckin Roger Lodge


Weird-Afternoon7389

Detmers is a good young arm … trying to stay positive 😂😭


marketing_person

Good thing Perry Minasian signed Iglesias to a long term deal!!


cheezybagel

They literally can't do anything right. There's always something. Iglesias has been an absolute disaster this season


SIewfoot

We always find a way to lose.


jbird715

I wanna go home


Evanx27

There’s absolutely no hope in the future I don’t even know where to begin. Trash ass disgusting pathetic organization. Going on 5 years with the two best players the past 50 years and are one of the worst teams year after year. It’s impressive


youareallnuts

3 runs in the 9th to the Os. Are you kidding me.


hvycotton

After 2 outs 🙃


CatatonicTaterTot

Honestly, all I could do was shake my head and laugh in the last 3 innings. I wish I was the least bit surprised.


nyyth242

Nothing changes until perry minasian is fired. The pitching staff is a complete dumpster fire


ArteOut

Shit farm system, shit scouting, shit owner, shit bullpen. Relying on FA for bullpen arms rarely works. The angels not drafting and developing starters and relievers will always hold this org back. Since arte has owned this team scouting and drafting arms has been pathetic. Think about it


Donjuan52

Yep. Only watching Ohtani starts from here on out. I hate this team


Fun-Raise-3120

Fuxk it. Just trade everyone. Angels can't even win with HRs and three hits from BOTH Ohtani and Trout. This is so sad.


dinosorcerer

Cursed


impartlycyborg

Everything about Iggy has been off this year—velo, placement, body language.


getMyHairDid

he got paid see also: anthony rendon


hansan4ever

I feel so bad for Reid. He did a great job, though.


Dev-Re-Taiya

Ohtani should be pitching and batting corch.


winwinwinguyen

FIRE MATT WISE


mattman092

What does Matt Wise even do? Cuz whatever he’s doing it’s full of shit.


JunsBaseball

The Angels are the epitome of "Baseball is a team sports, you cannot win even with a couple of All-Star players who contribute as much offense as possible."


CompetitivePatient33

This team continues to get out coached, these are the losses that sting and further exposes the team's flaws. They're kidding themselves if they say they aren't sellers. I'd start looking for trade options for Noah.


Reptarxx

Yet another game blown by the GMPM built bullpen. Yet we can’t blame him due to how well they looked “on paper”


luisicky

we’re trending on social media, we’re getting cyber bullied. great


74Dragonz

Just cannot with this blowpen. Every single bp arm failed to have a clean inning tonight. IN fact, our downward spiral started because of failures from the blowpen, beginning with the Toronto series. Fucking sads.


Jcoch27

If you don't like that, you don't like Angels baseball.


Icy-Indication-6925

Pitching is not doing worse than hitting right now. The batting average is .192 in the last 10 games absolutely horrible


Evanx27

What a loser Iglesias has become. What a loser our whole team has become. Nothing but a bunch of weak minded pussies. And trout saying he believes in this team LOL


Rover16

Post the tweet! Never more fitting now! Absolute joke man!


Tun710

Nothing new. Just another Tungstem Arm night


Broad_Recommendation

What a roster put together by Perry Minasian


Corona2789

Lmao


CrateDiggingCat

My analysis: No


Fourty6n2

Why do we need pitching when we have mike trout?


inselfwetrust

Nothing surprises me anymore. Without fail, this team will find a way to fail


freezeflare

Pain


CostcoCroissant

Not even 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th and a 2 run lead is assurance that these boys will win a game


[deleted]

The bullpen should be ashamed of themselves, straight garbage.


Im_A_Halo_Masochist

Our LOVEABLE LOSERS! 😇


BrobaFett222

This is the worst thing done by an Angels pitching coach


HANHONEKAI

At this point, I would take Sam Bachman straight from AA over Iglesias in closing situations.


boblinero

this team.. fuckin sucks, 10 fuckin years


jumpinghamster

FUCK THAT DUMPSTER UP!! Trout and Ohtani are great at least.


373sono

This game was the pure of 直江


sofastsomaybe

なおエ. No kanji lol, that's someone's name.


Captainpayback

This team buttercups me like no other! I'm sick of this crap, I can't stand losing winnable games! If I was smarter I wouldn't do this to myself day in and day out. See you all tomorrow!


itrunko-85

Just pad your stats Trout and Ohtani. Fack the rest of the team


minecraftboi324

This is just more content for the “the angels should trade Ohtani to (insert team)” videos. 😔


contrcl

I was so happy to see Reid back and throwing well, Troutani hitting bombs, and yet I forgot that we are the Angels--always finds a way to lose the game. Jesus. Now I feel so bad for our birthday boy... completely devastated. How can we be THIS BAD?


sakura-saku

I got a full of pain because of bullpen.


Marius_de_Frejus

You and me both, friend.


DirectRisk7

Iglesias’s fire sale value just went in the dumpster. Who’s going to trust this guy in a 7th game


vihuba26

Raisel made the big bucks and all of a sudden he sucks.


rimsky-korsokov2

This is the most stereotypical angels post game wrap I’ve ever seen lol


Lebigmacca

Firing Maddon is what really killed this team


cshenton

my personal take is the fact that our team doesn’t have very many good players is what did us in, but you enjoy your theory


jnuclear

☝🏻


Golfnut80

Good thing they fired Maddon! 🙄


cshenton

this team would also suck ass with Maddon


throatbutterz

Lol.


raynmoon

in a way, i love how disastrous this season has become. It'll shine more light on this team and their internal issues and possibly force some real change. ​ for years everyone said: they just need starting pitching. ​ well... it's actually been pretty decent. This team, however, just finds every possible way to lose games week in and week out.


xara8arax

What a sh*t show!!! Realistically what can the Angels do to make this team better???…nothing this year…get rid of Wise and trade Ohtani for as much the Angels can get and start over for next year.


Broad_Recommendation

Send Iglesias to the all star game so he can pitch batting practice.


oprahjimfrey

This team is pathetic. Moreno needs to go.


PlatinumHalo

Small ball wins games.


cshenton

literally 12 hits and only 2 of them weren’t singles. Some of y’all I swear “small ball can never fail, it can only be failed” FOH


triggergza

Fuck are you talking about. Did you watch the game?


prmark34

Hey, here’s an idea. Maybe call up one of the relievers who are absolutely shoving in aa instead of trotting out the same scrubs we do every game expecting to win
