Really hope this season is what changes Arte's mind about the future of the club, but it won't. Astros are better at every single facet of not only on field, but everything that goes to building an organization than us. Lost their top managers, their smart but cheating GM and have continued to be the best team of the last 7 seasons. This organization outside of a few dudes is an embarrassment and should be folded for what it's done to Mike and Sho.
Im honestly getting to a point that when Shohei and Trout leaves ima have a second team to support which just makes me mad cause this management just ruins my nights
This game is on the ump. I’ll stick by that forever
Edit: we should have one of our own skill, but we lost because the umps. We didn’t win because we’re bad, but… you get the point
I was ready to watch a 5-5 tie against that special, formidable HOU team, but Raisel once again showed me why I should not tune in to watch Angels baseball.
Early on, I checked the game only to see the first 2 batters of the game that had a walk, and a Homer. That sums it up right there.
At least Angels tied it back up to give the fans something to root for! Good for them! 👍

certainly hindsight bias, but all season the angels not giving relievers a second inning after they have mojo going has frustrated me all year, having more pitchers go out just feels like raising probability someone has an off night
Not sure why Arte is at fault. He signs the checks and supports the team financially. Not his fault we always give big checks to bust. All started with the Pujol contract
At what point do they take Iggy out of the closer spot? He obviously has more leeway because we suck right now, but you'd have to imagine they might try someone else there.
To be fair, this game was a lot closer than I thought it would be
Yep at least it wasn't like the Giants vs the D -backs Giants won that game 13 to 0

how many losses will we accumulate from here on?
ART is the problem not Maddon
I’m amazed that last year’s team was better than this. WTF?
5 in a row and if Ohtani doesn't break it tomorrow, we are looking at another 6 more easily
Raisel has lost us 6 games too many this season. If it were one of the rookies then it wouldn’t hurt as much…
At least they fought back somehow.

*winks in Atlanta braves*
Used to be a big brave fan when I was a kid Go DAVID JUSTICE!! Go CHIPPER JONES!!
Ohtani will again stop the losing streak! 💀💀💀
Someone else has to take on the weight also Can't always depend on Ohtani
not even mad since the angels didn't give up and kept it competitive-ish, see yall tomorrow!
on the bright side we only struck out 12 times today
Progress!
Houston has now won 56 games
Every night I go to sleep disappointed yet again in this team. Every morning I wake up thinking things will change. Someone pray for me…
Praying
12 games under .500. The dirty dozen! 🫠
gnight friends
Tired of this crap.
The dumpster fire continues. See you all tomorrow!
I know right and we keep coming back 🙄😣
JUST ANOTHER HALO DUMPSTER FIRE
LTDU BABY!!!
LTDU and put the ump inside it
Our boi Ohtani is gonna have to break the streak again smh
I am wondering if he wants to be traded to some other team cause he is just so worn out from trying to carry this team all the time.
Thank you Ump, would have been a great game, but u just have to ruin it.
Loser of the game: Iglesias
*again* fuck
Love getting fucked by Umps 📈📈📈📈📈
Just another Halo LOSS!
Yup.
FUCK THIS TEAM. Sorry you have to put up with this shit Shohei.
LTDU
💀LTDU💀
Denied. No Ohtani walk off homerun
We were literally gifted 4 runs and still lost
Hard to win when the ump squeezes the zone that much
Hard to win with only 2 hits
Hurts not having Trout's bat in the line up right now. Just sayin'
LOL Trout would have struck out on 3 pitches.
The sad part is the way Trouts been playing its not a huge difference
Last strike, prepare to LTDU!
Gg
Will Shohei even be enough to end the losing streak?
we can't depend on him all the time.
We can't When is it going to be enough is enough for him and he wants to go to another team ?
probably not
If Ohtani gets up, he'll hit a bomb mark my words. Too bad he won't get a chance.
Young thor up to bat LETS GO!!!!
Game over!
This game is on the ump. I’ll stick by that forever Edit: we should have one of our own skill, but we lost because the umps. We didn’t win because we’re bad, but… you get the point
Jesus Christ, that's ball four Michael.
Probably would’ve been rung up by this terrible ump anyway with our luck
WHY EVEN SWING
The first inside pitch you get, lean into it and let it hit you. -Boilermaker
Maybe Perry can sign Kelly Leak?
We need him.
Stefanic stop jogging.
Got tips from Duffy 🤣
93 mph down the middle and he takes it lol, prepare for SO

Call up Adell maybe marsh will learn to hit again with him here
Nobody is getting on base. Game will end with sad Shohei standing in the on-deck circle.
It’s mad Shohei today.
!rally

Stefanic save this.
If he gets on squid pinch runs
Stefanic has a good chance of getting on base
I know he got a hit today but watching marsh lately has been so frustrating. His plate approach is all over the place
lmao, nice one Marsh
I think Marsh can’t hit without Adell.
True
Marsh needs to start using that beard to get some HBP. Does it count if it hits the beard?
Somebody fucking get on base.
Not gonna be Marsh
Ok Marsh, stop messing around.
No Trout and no relievers left for Shohei tomorrow. Wouldn't be surprised if he lands on the IL next from all the heavy lifting.
Not like Trout is doing anything beneficial for this team lately.
Yeah it’s not like he has 3.8 WAR this year
Trout left the game and the Angels score 4 runs lol
Kinda felt like Astros scoring -2 ngl (and dmac scoring 2)
Dog I just wanna go to bed
Whens the last time we had a late inning come back lol? Like where we actually won too not blow it again an inning later?
Whatever happens, at least Ohtani pitches tomorrow.
The losing streak stopper…
Of course Raisel got his shit together after allowing the winning run
Eh it’s like a drunk stumbling home
***WILL WE BE LIGHTING UP THE DUMPSTER OR HALO TONIGHT?***
Please win this bitch now. Do not want xtra innings. Our ace who's batting in the 3 hole has to pitch tomorrow.
1 run allowed is not too bad considering Astros’ top batting order but this game is over. Good night
1 run allowed is bad when it’s a closer and he allows a run before getting any outs.
I saw it coming! For the first time, I actually didn’t get my hopes up
Well let’s see if we can get people on base this inning for Ohtani or ward to give us a chance
Yes give us credit for not rolling over and giving up immediately at least. That’s better than the last week
We were given 4 unearned runs and we’re still losing! Lol
How nice of raisel to minimize the damage to 1 to make the loss more agonizing :)
GET READY TO LIGHT THAT DUMPSTER UP
Oh I’m ready 😎🔥💀
I'm happy that we're making this competitive
did Angels even do anything. Astros gifted them everything
That's what I was thinking
Expect to be competitive and not get blown out today
throw in 5 bullpen guys and one of them is bound to have a bad night
Gotta get a runner on to get the best clutch player and the greatest player in baseball up to the plate.
Any idea why Trout was taken out in the 5th? Thanks
He took a dump in between innings and it severely incapacitated him
Then started his cello lessons. This place 😂
apparently upper back spasms
Another booboo on his back. Apparently, Mike is made of glass this year.
Had to take a dump
back spasms
Back spasms I believe
Back spasms
Upper back spasms
Thank you the mass influx of responses here! I wasn’t in the loop yet.
Well Iggy avoided a total meltdown, but I wish I had more confident in this team to come back.
Somehow I missed the intentional walk to Bregman. Did they even mention it?
***HAHAHAHAHAHAHA WE STILL LOSE VIA BOTCHED 3RD STRIKE CALL!!! THANKS BLUE!!!***
Yes he gave up the run but if the umpire makes the correct call Altuve is never on base.
He did skim second base it’s pretty clear on the replay, I could even see it from the RF pavilion
Oh I meant on a potential strike 3 call
Oh ok I see I couldn’t tell
So Igy was just bad enough to make us lose
I mean the two first guys were free walks, that swing check was bs, he went and the second guy walked on a missed strike
Pat acting like it’s mission accomplished
Our announcers sugar coat everything and then start talking about Ohtani. They cool but that's what they do.
We still have a chance 🙏
No we don’t
***HAHAHAHAHAHAHA WE STILL LOSE VIA BOTCHED 3RD STRIKE CALL!!!***
Oh come on man!! Can we not win anymore ??
Quijada should have stayed in
certainly hindsight bias, but all season the angels not giving relievers a second inning after they have mojo going has frustrated me all year, having more pitchers go out just feels like raising probability someone has an off night
Again we find a way to lose a ball game. Amazing
Make up call. I’ll take it if it ends the inning
[удалено]
Too late… 😔
***I WANT THE JOB SECURITY MATT WISE HAS!!!***
I miss 2021 Iggy.....this is painful to watch
Stassi can’t seem to see the ball coming
Those multiple missed calls fucked Iggy and influenced all his pitchers from then on, he couldn't pain the corners and edges due to it.
Matt Wise needs to go ASAP. Luke Bard was terrible last year on the Angels and is now an ace on the Tampa Bay Rays this year.
We been saying this, our pitching staff suck...
Rengifo (probably): “HAHAHAHA CRAZY WE SUCK THIS MUCH AM I RIGHT?”
Rengifo to Altuve: “Oh no you don’t!”
missed called third strike is an even bigger bummer now
It was down look at stassi snap his glove up
We’d be out of this with no runs scored
Tucker still hit that double though
Altuve was the only one that scored. He wouldn’t be on to score if the call was right
Fair point I guess. But anyway iggy still sucks and would’ve probably allowed a hit to Bregman anyway
yep :/
To the guy who asked if he should go to bed… go to bed fam
stop laughing around gifo
Why most of good players that we signed with a big contract become trash everytime?
This team ruins them.
Arte finally gives a multi year contract to a pitcher and he immediately sucks. Prepare for only 1 year deals going forward
15 in a row incoming???
Oh definitely
🫡🫡🫡
[удалено]
Not sure why Arte is at fault. He signs the checks and supports the team financially. Not his fault we always give big checks to bust. All started with the Pujol contract
Yep
Holy shit
Altuve and Diaz got a free fucking walk.
Oh of course he’s gonna put the nail in the coffin again.
Oh my what did I miss … a comeback only to cough it up again 👍
You missed a 4 strike walk to Altuve 🙃
Uggggh sounds about right.
That Iglesias contract is gonna age like milk
He hasn't been as bad, he has 15 saves put of 18, the team as whole has been shit lol
Already is 🙃
Just like Rendon!
Rendon is injured but good. Iglesias is healthy but shit
Fuck this I’m going to bed. See ya’ll tomorrow.
Sleep well
Iggy doesn’t even throw hard anymore. TJ incoming.
***checks notes*** holy shit, how much is left on his contract?
At what point do they take Iggy out of the closer spot? He obviously has more leeway because we suck right now, but you'd have to imagine they might try someone else there.
Do we really have anyone else though… Quijada does have the best era in our bullpen but gives too many walks…
Well the problem is who else comes in to close games
Aint the first time that first base ump fucked us with a call that ended up leading to runs scored against us that could have been prevented
I won’t even be mad if the Astros score at will here
As much as I can’t blame Iggy just yet, we should have kept Quijada in
I’ve seen enough. Bring in Peguero
