I've never made a game thread for any sport, but I'm sick of losing - enough is enough.

Angels are 2-8 in their last 10 just like we are. This is our chance to win a few games and split or maybe even take a series. Although the starters for the first 2 games leave a little to be desired.

I hope Schad feels suitably bad about this.

[vaff87]

I'm not sure I want to watch Mat Latos.

[Schad]

I hope Schad feels suitably bad about this.

Mine was up first, but I'm happier to see someone who hasn't failed miserably take a crack at it. There's even a chance he might not have the game thread wasting disease yet.

Also, the only thing better than a bad joke is a truly wretched one, so there.

The Welsh word for wretched seems to be "truenus", which I am completely fine with.

[Dan2087]

Yea it took me some time to write it up and then once I hit submit I noticed Schad made one 7 minutes before

My record is 0-0 right now. We have nothing to lose

Although those first 2 games don't look good for us

Can't wait to see Latos groove a 90mph fastball to Trout.

[Schad]

That's seven strikeouts in a row for Bautista, if I'm not mistaken.

[Schad]

"[Pillar] is their hottest hitter, I can't believe they're taking the bat out of his hands."

An actual phrase uttered with conviction.

[Lateral Quicks]

Our offense looks merely terrible when the opposing defence makes a bunch of errors.

[Schad]

Rare terrible decision from Trout to bail out Latos.

[vaff87]

LOL, hard luck for Latos there.

[Lateral Quicks]

Can't wait to see Latos groove a 90mph fastball to Trout.

Well it wasn't grooved, but you got the speed right. Hope you enjoyed it.

[Lateral Quicks]

So how long are we sticking with a .100 hitter in the top of the lineup?

[JaysRule15]

Sad watching Bautista fall off a cliff like this. At this rate, he's not getting a contract from any team to play next year, as a starter at least. Nice to see he still shows up the umpires by throwing his bat before ball 4 is even called though lol.

[SharoneWright]

After tonight, Jose has earned $$ 1,777,000.00.

[johanliebert]

Bad strike 3 call on Jose..boy oh boy no respect from that umpire.
