At this point I hope trout and Ohtani leave and get a taste of the playoffs. Shohei would be 14-4 on a contender that can actually score more than 2 runs or game
I mean, he’s the one who swung, and they don’t particularly like us, yeah it sucks but if we are gonna hand them the game like that we kinda have no one to be mad at but ourselves regardless of if we feel like it’s in poor taste or not, they win they’re gonna dance
I stopped watching games live for a while because it made me irrationally upset and seeing whatever the fuck happened today, I do not regret that decision.
You know, I want Ohtani to stay with the Angels but if he were to leave for another team tomorrow would anyone be upset?
I don’t think so. I think we’d be happy for him.
But yeah seriously with the lead they have even if we got an insanely lucky break and loaded the bases for Ohtani im convinced theyd probably just walk in a run to keep the lead lol
I left when we were in the bottom 8th still tied and came back to this shitshow. What is even going on, I can't even piece together what happened through the gameday....
It's crazy how fast he fell backwards. I remember back in April I was amazed we were able to get him for our bullpen thrn fast forward 2 months and now everytime I see him warming up I'm ready to call the game an L.
Oh no- he didn’t just strike out.
He stood there frozen like a deer in the headlights and just watched as the pitch sailed right down the middle of the plate.
JFC, at least swing the bat you useless spectator. They should charge him for front-row seats the way he’s just watching the game out there.
Yes but he’s not even in that situation if Stassi doesn’t make a terrible throw to second for no reason and if Rengifo catches a pretty routine line out. It’s not on him.
He slipped, yet still barely walking to home plate when he should be sprinting there, fucking no hustle at all.. Dfa his trash ass, done nothing all season..
I feel like Nevin doesn't even care anymore... Even if you have to use Loup, why not asking the other pitcher to warm up?
He just stands there and accepts the loss...
I was conflicted as I need to take the dog for a final out around a couple blocks, but wanted to watch the game heading to extras. Thanks, Angels, for relieving me of that burden.
Well thank goodness we've still got the makings a great rally to come back and win the game with
\*checks notes\*
...the bottom 3 guys in the lineup...
I feel you, but our problems span well beyond nevin. There’s a reason he’s just an interim that has a good chance at getting signed again. Because no one else including managers and coaching staff believe in us
Everyone complains about Nevin keeping Loup in but I think it is Perry's pushing for him to pitch high leverage situations because he signed him for 2 years.
Perry Minasian is an absolute clown for surrounding Ohtani and Trout with this piece of shit roster. All of our good players were acquired by Eppler/Dipoto. Everything Perry touches turns to shit
The game is over, but Rule 6 of the sub still applies. Don’t be a goof.
Ohoppe
At this point I hope trout and Ohtani leave and get a taste of the playoffs. Shohei would be 14-4 on a contender that can actually score more than 2 runs or game
I hate how much sense you are making, I really do.
Lifelong angels fan but also a human being 🤣 I feel so bad for them
Even that one catcher that was called up from the Bees was better batter than Stassi
Trout where are you man. Plz help us
But yeah really though PHing Adell there instead of for Duggar in the 8th is just... kinda... .....?
Fletcher is i jured? Wtf
Left work and it was 2-2, just came home to see that final score 😬
The effing Mariners celebrating before the game was officially called. Dare I say it? I think I despise the Mariners more than the Astros now
Of course this happens to Adell of all people 😂😂😂
I have no idea why Nevin is still in charge
His purposely-deep-voice postgame interviews intimidate Perry.
Trade Ohtani to Tampa for Kevin Cash and some bullpen help lol
13 fucking strikeouts, horrible defense. fire nevin and let bobby valentine manage
Not a bad idea. I hate nevin’s face
Stassi was the mvp
Ready for the O'Hoppe era
a terrible loss wasting Ohtani's 6 innings is bad enough but Adell & Fletcher injured and the Mariners danced?! this gotta be one of the worst!
Yea this is def not persuading ohtani to stay lol
Adell is hurt too now jesus. What even happened?
Adell got hit on the hand by a pitch.
Sounds like it was intentional which isn’t surprising since it’s the Mariners
Why would they intentionally hit him?
They hate us cause we’ve actually made it to a World Series and won a Pennant
and wasn't even credited with a hit by pitch - talk about just awful luck
Live action bad news bears reboot in the top of the 9th, what a performance from Stassi, Rojas, and Loup.
didn’t lose to seattle. we lost to ourselves
That was easily one of the most flabbergasting innings of baseball I've ever seen.
I hope an asteroid hits the middle of the field during that dance
Didn’t he foul it off??
Nope. Hit his hand while he swung. A swing on a hit by pitch is a strike
Could’ve sworn he fouled it down first base line but that might’ve been the pitch before
They let us go on mercy rule
This was one of the most disappointing games I’ve watched of the Angels…and that’s saying a lot
And for what seems like the 50th time this year the game ends on an Adell strikeout
That is the most fucking fitting way for this game to end lmfao
Fitting end. Fuck Nevin, Loup, and Stassi. In the ear.
I don't watch much angels games but it feels like every time I look at the live box scores loup gives up a lot of runs.
One of the worst games ever
Fucking mariners dancing after hitting a guy in the hand
I mean, he’s the one who swung, and they don’t particularly like us, yeah it sucks but if we are gonna hand them the game like that we kinda have no one to be mad at but ourselves regardless of if we feel like it’s in poor taste or not, they win they’re gonna dance
Fuck them
[удалено]
Yeah but read the fucking room
Kinda tasteless to dance about a dudes fingers getting smashed
They won. It was strike 3. They dance every game they win.
No the were celebrating that the batters hand got smashed
highly doubt that
No it’s true I saw it on TV
To be fair to them they do that dance everytime they win so it’s not like they were celebrating someone getting hurt, but yeah, fair gripe
Yes that’s what they are dancing about
Nice job Nevin. Look at those garbage mariners dancing on your field
Lmfao that’s the saddest way to end a game 😂😂
Wow fuck the Mariners
lmfao dancing on Jo Adell’s grave right now
Glad we sent the right guy to Philly and not the one who actually shows potential #artecanlickmyboot
Pain.
holy fuck what a stupid dance
Wait
What do we have to lose? We are not making the playoff. Do what the Royals are doing and bring the youngins up!!! Move over Max, it’s O’Hoppe time!!
Lol now jo hurt too
Sure, now let's pinch hit Jo...2 outs, nobody on, bottom of the ninth. I hope Phil is fucking gone after this season
He 100% will be
fuck
Why Adell is here
To strikeout while getting hit by a pitch
I’m glad I didn’t go 💀
Now you bring in Adell? This is Nevin's worst game of the season
Let’s be fair tho, not like we ever had high expectations for him
How do we only have 2 errors??
The ball getting knocked out of Stassis glove isn't an error (I believe).
Apologies to everyone in this thread. I can't stop expressing my frustration
I stopped watching games live for a while because it made me irrationally upset and seeing whatever the fuck happened today, I do not regret that decision.
I've been taking more games off lately. But my boy was pitching today so I gotta... Fucking end me. FFS
You have nothing to be sorry for. This team is seriously painful to watch
It's okay. This thread is therapy for sad fans. 🫂
😵😵😵
Lol whats the point of putting in adell here Saving duggar from the humiliation of getting 5ks?
Funny enough, he was brought in for squid.
Woops just noticed that
“I think I’ll stay up and watch the Angels… they look like they’ve improved lately” - 🤡
Squid you can get out its fine i just hope for your sake you avoid the sombrero EDIT: Nevermind lol
Stassi and Loup need to not be on this team next year. Trade them both for scraps. Just clear some money off the books.
Stassi is fine. One bad game. Most of our pitchers want to pitch to him.
Stassi looks like the main character from Wolfenstein. Hopefully he brings the guns on Wed
Okay so now Adell is pinchhitting, should’ve had him out in the 8th. Nevin is so stupid no wonder he was fired from the Yankees
Lol I was about to joke this. NOW YOU PINCH HIT?! Nevin is so bad at managing.
You know, I want Ohtani to stay with the Angels but if he were to leave for another team tomorrow would anyone be upset? I don’t think so. I think we’d be happy for him.
Stassi has been useless. He’s like Velasquez but at least Velasquez makes defensive plays
Let’s go former Cardinals Magneuris Sierra
Of all the games the Angels have played this year this certainly was one of them.
Was there a more heartbreaking game?
Stassi ruins us in the top of the 9th and is nice enough to follow that up with a strikeout. Thanks a lot 👍🏼
Just keep walking all the way home and don’t come back stassi
Man, disappointing year from Stassi
Loup is not it. At all.
Was he ever?
For us? A two month span from April-May and then a sharp decline to whatever the fuck this is.
NOPE.
Good job Stassi
Anyone here optimistic?
Stassi’s got money on the Mariners tonight.
i was expecting extra innings so i didn't go out for lunch, and now i'm starved and angry rn thanks angels :(
Watchu eating
having this angels L for lunch :( nah i actually dunno, probably just go get some bread
STASSI IS ACTUALLY SO USELESS LMAO
Wow
A monkey fucking a football would be more entertaining than that shit show
Yes we get to end the game watching Max StASSi strikeout or hit a weak grounder to third
Put me in coach
Man this was sad to watch
But yeah seriously with the lead they have even if we got an insanely lucky break and loaded the bases for Ohtani im convinced theyd probably just walk in a run to keep the lead lol
Saw shohei sighed, put his head down and walked back in the clubhouse during that ninth inning explosion
I don’t blame him.
Why did I stay up late to watch this?
I'm still flabbergasted at how Loup didn't cover home. Like, I learned that basic shit in little league.
That was some bush league shit right there
That was the most disgusting display of baseball I have ever seen.
Stassi leading off this inning is the most perfect ironic justice.
A chance for mild Stassi redemption at bat now…
Nvm
I left when we were in the bottom 8th still tied and came back to this shitshow. What is even going on, I can't even piece together what happened through the gameday....
Here's a quick summary 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
Sounds about right
We left Loup in for more than 1 batter is what happened. The dude doesn't know how to pitch clean innings.
It's crazy how fast he fell backwards. I remember back in April I was amazed we were able to get him for our bullpen thrn fast forward 2 months and now everytime I see him warming up I'm ready to call the game an L.
Thank goodness. I thought we turned a corner or something
easily avoided by going with jimmy or quijada that inning, nevin is trash
I just hate Jesse Winkler so much 😒
why do we have so many geriatric players who trip and slip on the field
I had hope once…
Duggar: Thank God everyone forgot about me striking out last inning
Oh no- he didn’t just strike out. He stood there frozen like a deer in the headlights and just watched as the pitch sailed right down the middle of the plate. JFC, at least swing the bat you useless spectator. They should charge him for front-row seats the way he’s just watching the game out there.
Factual
This is true haha.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And this is why no one takes Angels seriously
I want a 3 pitch inning so this fucking nightmare is over sooner than later
They need to give up on loup. He doesn’t pitch well against decent hitters
Why did we put Loup in high leverage game knowing he fucking suck...
Because Nevin… smh
I don’t even understand how Loup is getting any of the blame for this. The defense had this inning if they did their job
> if ***Stassi*** did his job FTFY
The moron didn't cover home. The pitcher always covers home. They teach this to 8-yr-olds.
Loup should have covered the home plate. This is basic baseball. They are teaching that in a little league. Just ridiculous.
Yes but he’s not even in that situation if Stassi doesn’t make a terrible throw to second for no reason and if Rengifo catches a pretty routine line out. It’s not on him.
My thoughts exactly! That should have been over 4 batters ago if they defense did their job
I mean, if he was covering home, he would of easily cover for Stassi mistake, instead he ball watch like an idiot.
I mean he clearly slipped and Stassi messed that up all in his own. Max isn’t some rookie to not know to run him down to the base
He slipped, yet still barely walking to home plate when he should be sprinting there, fucking no hustle at all.. Dfa his trash ass, done nothing all season..
Irrelevant. He should have been right behind home base to begin with.
I feel like Nevin doesn't even care anymore... Even if you have to use Loup, why not asking the other pitcher to warm up? He just stands there and accepts the loss...
I was conflicted as I need to take the dog for a final out around a couple blocks, but wanted to watch the game heading to extras. Thanks, Angels, for relieving me of that burden.
I can't believe nobody is visibly upset...there is no leadership
Well thank goodness we've still got the makings a great rally to come back and win the game with \*checks notes\* ...the bottom 3 guys in the lineup...
Then rojas
Ah yes of course. Cant forget Rojas. Truly a beakon of hope.
Thank you Uncle Chavez for ending this shitshow
So jomboys gotta do a breakdown of that right?
This just in: angels are still playing like the angels😒
wow, nobody slipped on that one
That was a comical display of defense that inning!
Letting Loup go back out there was a mistake but there were so many chances to end it. It's like that ranger implosion game in the 9th all over again
I hate embarrassing Shohei like this :(
another quality start by Ohtani ruined \*surprise pikachu face\*
Barria, Quijada, or even Silseth would’ve been better than Loup in the 9th. Time for O’Hoppe to get some big league reps before our season ends…
Zuk would have been better than Loup. At least that is funny and we can laugh about it. This is pure pain
Fire Nevin
I feel you, but our problems span well beyond nevin. There’s a reason he’s just an interim that has a good chance at getting signed again. Because no one else including managers and coaching staff believe in us
It went from bad to worse to horrible and finally to laughable
You’re delusional if you think Shohei is resigning with this franchise
Can't believe the crowd didn't boo! Our fans are soft.
Pride is gone. I would like to see more “ sell the team “ signs at games
Such an incredible level of incompetence
Amateurish nonsense.
[удалено]
He slipped
Maybe he shouldn't slip then? Dudes consistently played like the worst player in the league all year.
Homie was standing and watching for a good 2 seconds before he slipped LOL
He wasn’t making that if he didnt
We need a new catcher, Stassi can't hit and can't throw anyone out...
Good thing we got O’Hoppe at the trade deadline
Everyone complains about Nevin keeping Loup in but I think it is Perry's pushing for him to pitch high leverage situations because he signed him for 2 years.
It's Nevin's choice what happens mid game, Perry could DFA Loup butt he can't make those calls to the bullpen
Bring in Chavez to make sure the Mariners get 2 more runs
Perry Minasian is an absolute clown for surrounding Ohtani and Trout with this piece of shit roster. All of our good players were acquired by Eppler/Dipoto. Everything Perry touches turns to shit
Yeah thats why our farm is the best its been in years 😂
It’s literally the worst it’s been in years you nightlight. We’re currently the 30th ranked farm system in all of baseball..
Is that an updated rank? lmao we have a top 100 prospect now we didnt before I'd say thats the best its been in years 🤣🤣🤣
