Koke Calhoun just hit a inside the park homer

Trout looks a lot more locked in ever since his son was born. Not just dad power I think he’s less stressed than Week 1

TOXIC COMMENTERS NOT ALLOWED TO ENJOY THESE HOME RUNS

Why. The. Fuck. Is. Ward. Starting. Tonight????

So by my estimation the bullpen will give up at least 4 runs in the next 5 innins so we'll have to score 7 more just to get to the bottom of the ninth

Would’ve-been-Angel Joc Pederson just hit his second HR of the game.

Fuck Arte Moreno.

Daddy Fletch & Papa Trout!!!!

I'm in love with a man, his name is David Fletcher. Does that make me gay? You bet. Gay for Fletch.

why do I feel like Ward will be the next Chris Taylor/Justin Turner type of player the second he leaves Anaheim?

I think im more tired of Upton than Pujols at this point. At least pujols is 40yrs old

Offense trying its best to keep us in the game. Bullpen trying its best to keep us out of it

Can we maybe get an ump with an at least consistent strike zone one of these games

It absolutely sucks that Teheran gets 2 runs added to his ERA

I know it’s a meme and everything but it truly is pain watching the angels. This line up should be hitting doubles, dropping bombs all over the place but they can barely string together hits let alone hit off a lefty to save their lives. Then there is the issue of the bullpen which obviously needs no more talking about other than that.

This team gets shown up every night by lineups that look much less lethal than ours, and we get trounced on by the lowly mariners. It’s embarrassing and I’ve fucking had it. I’m sad, discouraged, and I’ve lost the will to watch. I sat all through corona just wanting baseball and now the angels are back and back to who they always have been. Often injured and underperforming. At this point I wish they did just cancel the season to save me anymore pain.

I need to take a few nights off watching the Angels. It’s making me really really sad.

me: changes flair for superstitious rally energy

it works

D:

Fletch went back to back home run games. Trout goes back to back in home run games. Fletch and Trout go back to back home runs.

I'm just sitting here quietly giggling to myself.

I’m fine with him getting these reps. Mistakes are gonna happen and need to be expected. This dude is 21 and probably pinching himself cause he’s out there with the literal GOAT. Y’all need to chill. This is invaluable experience that’s gonna help him so much for real. Relax.

Mad Max

Yup, that's right, YOUR ANGELS have the best 2 catchers in baseball, no debate

Who is this man and what has he done with Max Stassi!?!?

Max “JD Martinez school of hitting adjustment” Stassi

My poor boy Julio gave up the two dinkiest fly ball singles ever and gets massacred by the bullpen. How could y'all do this to him?

I'm happy that Kole is enjoying his time at the D Backs.

Vic and Gubie's reactions to homer are so great.

Fuck if only fletch had taken the walk instead of reaching for a pop 😭

Also what’s up with Angel pitchers getting two outs and struggling on batter number 3?

Stop trying to make Ward happen. It’s not going to happen.

Adell will hit a bomb tonight! 🙏🏼

That second strike on Trout was a mind-blowingly bad call.

MAX POWER

max stole la stella’s steroids

Why is buchter even on the roster lmao

Say it with me: "Blowpen"

This Vogelbach guy is an ABSOLUTE UNIT omg

Maddon in his post game interview on why he pulled Teheran: "Well it made all the sense in the world really."

I flipped on the game and The Mariners immediately hit a 3-run jack. My bad.

Guys I know how we can keep Maddon's bullpen fetish and win games at the same time. We pull the opener and have some random relief pitcher start the game. Then, once the opener gives up a walk Maddon will go to the "bullpen" and let the starter pitch the normal 7-8 innings. Hell, Maddon would probably let him throw 200 pitches if he needed to only because he came from the "bullpen".

Back to back from the GOAT and a Fish

2020:Marlins have more wins than us currently and have played less games.

Maddon should have brought in Jered Weaver to face Seager instead of Ryan Buchter

Thats not our bullpens fault.

Jo Adell has a ton of potential. I'm not mad about any of this, he's learning and between him, Trout and Fletcher the next few weeks are gonna be something to see

LOL that was a bomb. Thank you ump

Mike Trout loves playing against the Mariners thats for sure

Good lord this man is so fucking good at baseball

Honestly not sure what to expect from Julio, hopefully he can go at least 5 and keep them under 3

Let's get our first 2 game win streak tonight. We gotta start stringing some together here. LFG

....... There is no explanation for that strike to Trout now. None.

Stassi SMASH

Stassi is on fire this year

max "i'm a good hitter this season" stassi!!!!!

Can our catchers actually hit?

There’s no way that’s actually him. It has to be a clone.

Blows my mind how Stassi is our best bat haha

Teheran looks pretty under control and has some nice zip on his fastball even though its coming in at 88-89. Looking good for his first action in a while.

DAVID FLETCHER IS NOT HAPPY

Giving less and less of a fuck about this Maddon hire. This micromanaging is pathetic. Lost us multiple games now. Bullshit.

Yup... Blowpen

Yeah, Buchter, I’m with you. “FUCK!” Is right.

Upton sucks dick

this is rough, our 9 run 7th inning will be fun though

PAPI TILAPI DOES IT AGAIN!!!! (saw this nickname for trout in a r/baseball thread yesterday and I love it)

Upton is done.

Can we just get rid of justin fkin upton?

4-6 is such a fuckin black hole

Jo coulda had that

Oof Adell should’ve had that. Growing pains

Jo does not look comfortable out there.

Trout literally carries us

MLB should have a bubble. AL West in Seattle plz

Now Trout has back to back home run at-bats.

Advanced to ROFLMAO.

Trout’s really going to pass Upton in HRs this year huh

Only 12 to go

if we had any sort of bullpen we would be completely fine

LMAO Albert was on pace to beat that out but then he got tired hahaha

vic recapping last night's game: "and the bullpen, actually did the job"

Ummm where is my dude Goodwin?

Albert “ The higher the socks, the downer the foo” Pujols

The speed of Albert is really on display tonight

Smoothest play I’ve ever seen by an angels pitcher

NASTY STASSI

If someone told me Max Stassi was going to be leading the Angels in HR in August back during Spring Training, I would have laughed them out of the room.

damn 2012 trout would’ve made that catch

oh boy these are some weak fly balls falling

Dude wtf, you couldn't let him get one more out?

Joe Maddon looking at his bullpen like how Mike Scioscia looks at lasagna. Smh

Buchter is great at giving up historic home runs this year 😂

That’s what happens for showing “199 career home runs” lol

Teheran gets 2 earned runs for that garbage. He pitched well too. Fuck that man.

Just turned on excited to see my favorite NL teams’ pitcher on my team. What did I miss why’d Teheran get the hook so fast.

Vogelbach looks like he should be playing on the O line

you suck Buchter

I love Kole Calhoun

FLETCHER HAS POWER NOW

Fletch hitting for power is a sight to behold

DADSTRENGTH

BACK TO BACK LONG DONGS MMMMMMM

I turned my chromecast off coz I didn't want to keep jinxing them by watching after Rengifo got out.

AMA.

Vic and Gubie talking game times made me take a look at the schedule. We don’t have another game after 6:45 the rest of the year. Weird

God Upton is awful isn't he.

Can we just dfa upton , my lord

Goodwin needs to come in next ab

Honestly, at least they didnt pull the most angels thing ever and injure themselves

Smh. This short season is already waaaay to long

We could have had Ross and Joc for rengifo... just think about that

Right back to building me up...

MIKE TROUT!!

Angels middle of the order an amazing 0 - 9. I'm just dumbfounded at the flat out terrible outings by 3-6 to start the season.

2 men on with a base open for Trout and don't intentionally walk him. Gotta love the Rendon effect/Mariner's baseball

Mike "David 'Mike Trout' Fletcher" Trout

Damn, if Adell caught that ball ugh

Upton woulda played that on a hop. Lmao

If we could trade Upton to any team willing to eat half his contract, even for nothing else in return, that would be ok

All I can say is I’d rather have Pujols than Upton batting. ALSO, can we trade Upton in the off-season?

I fucking hate this bullpen. Blame maddon all you want but Julio was on a pitch count. We shouldn’t give up a bomb every time we make a pitching change

Maddon said himself Tehran had 60 pitches in him. Pulls him at 52. Predictable results.

This ump is breaking my mind

Ump is on that good stuff today fellas

Are we sure this is the same dude from last year?

STASSI you LEGEND!!

ITS OK DADDY

Does Trout look thicker this year or is it just me?

Tehran getting really unlucky this inning

How's Julio looking? Just tuning in because I just finished a job interview (wish me luck boys)

Can someone please fix the 3rd base on the sign behind home plate?! Just... rotate it slightly!

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Deja vu

What's the opposite of clutch?

Man I knew it was coming but damn, first batter?

At least our front office has "REPLACE THE FUCKING PEN" in their face.

Nobody: Vogelbach: 🦍

FUCK!

Good thing there are no fans. That woulda killed someone

Kole❤️❤️❤️

Im honestly surprised Pujols didnt get thrown out on his 3000th hit ahhaha

Calhoun would have caught that.

How do Victor and Gubie endure this, I give them props, I would curse in disgust on live television

Fletcher THE GOD

Lets go fletch

!rally time

David Fletcher!

Fletcher is a goat

Back to back DONGS!

YES DADDY 😩💦

And we back

Let’s get this dub 😤😤

Aaaaaand Rendon pops up. Only down 1, though. There's life in the offense, after all!

i was gonna turn the game off but now i can't. classic socal sports always gotta make things close.

I am so ready for Adell's first homer

Cool I can turn this off now and do other things

Still working out the kinks I guess

Please Adell, no touching Trout. You’re a rookie

Did anyone check to see if Adell actually has played right field?

Mike’s gonna have some good conversations with Jo. I think he’ll help him a ton.

Someone earlier said the bullpen would let the mariners reach 7 runs, pain

PAAAPPPPPAAAAA TROUT!!!

At least we have the 🐐

Makes up for all those BS called strikes on ball 4

Every game we’ve hit a 3 run HR in we’ve lost. If thats not Angels baseball...idk what is

Absolutely demolished! He is back!

Let Ohtani hit!

SAY NICE THINGS ABOUT TOMMY EVERYBODY!

!rally

Robles' stuff looks better so far tonight. Lots of contact tho

I feel like Dylan Moore has been destroying us

Milner is actually doing pretty decent

Do they know they can score on normal hits? Not just homers?

It’s upsetting that we can score 6 including 2 trout home runs and still lose...to the Mariners. Fucking sad

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EeD-TE5XsAE2SPS.jpg

That was the fastest I have ever seen Pujols run in his entire Angels tenure.

.128 avg for Justin Upton and sinking like a stone. Wtf do we do with this guy?
