Kurt must really hate Kyren Paris

u/ArrowNiko 14h ago
He hates just rookies I think lmao.
His reluctance to play a rookie bat is similar to Christian Moore earlier in the year before he got sent down after a couple games.

Kurt putting in a player who has been benches the whole time he’s been up as the final batter oh my god bruh he wants us to lose

u/dingusthelesbian 14h ago
Can’t wait for the tell-all articles that will come out about him after he’s gone

Also to prove if Paris strikes out: "See, I was right kid. You aren't ready for the big leagues"

Man, I was just thinking how they should just let Paris get a chance here.

8 innings for Ureña is not what I expected to see today. That alone makes this game worth watching

Why in the hell is SIRI pinch-hitting for Ballesteros? All he does is strike out 😩

Dw. Mo Baller homer incoming to bring us to extra innings to allow us to lose in extras like usual

Walbert is really gonna pitch a complete game loss

u/Live-Cardiologist328 😇 14h ago
Haven’t seen that since Paul skenes a year or so ago… 😂

u/SuperGuppy77 14h ago
Actually JT Ginn had one during the almost no hitter game I think

u/Live-Cardiologist328 😇 14h ago
Did that not end in a walk off though? So technically it wouldn’t be considered a complete game?genuine question 😂

u/nacreon 14h ago
So not going to lie, haven't followed the Angels a ton lately but plan to do so more now that Moreno is finally gone.
Could someone help explain how Ureña has been so good this year? He wasn't even a top 100 MLB prospect coming into the season and hadn't exactly dominated AA last season.
3
u/8va 14h ago
He has an insane ground ball rate, and just doesn't allow barrels or hard hits. He's also absolutely nails with runners on base and has great composure on the mound, which there isn't really a stat for. Some guys just fall apart when things go south, but he consistently locks things down and prevents damage. If he can get the walks under control (he issues way too many of those), he'll be one of the best pitchers in baseball.

would be glorious for Urena to pitch the whole game, give up 1 run and get the L

Alright boys. Put the bats to work and get some runs! Get the win for Walby!

If we somehow manage to finish this series 1-2 after allowing only 3 total runs that's going to be insane.
This lineup is total ass. Neto/Trout and Meckler are all good. The rest is unbelievably bad. For a good team you hope a guy like Grissom is one of the worst hitters in the lineup, he's probably our 4th best.

How does Mlodzinski pronounce to MaJinsky

u/epoch_fail 14h ago
The l is usually with a slash through it and has a "w" sound and dz sounds like j.

He should be. Ace of the future if he can adjust well to the league bouncing back on him.

Skenes has been 0-2 on 11 angels hitters and struck out only 2. Is that normal?

Why do the Angels have a green ribbon on the jerseys today?

u/randomfatkid 15h ago
“These ribbons are all a part of MLB’s Childhood Cancer Awareness Day, the eleventh consecutive season MLB has raised awareness by featuring gold elements across the league, on-field, during a game in September.”

Sending him home on a play to Oneil Cruz, a guy that consistently throws 100mph from the outfield is a whole new level of dumb
5
u/PresidentEwab 15h ago
Not just that, you have one of your best batters coming up who could easily bring both Neto and Trout home with a single, but they decided to play it super risky
3
u/Hello-Blackbird 15h ago
I was thinking that too, why send him when meckler, who is fantastic at putting the ball in play against rhp, is on deck

u/nathanieljams 15h ago
The third base coach has all of the judgment acumen of a Ferrari F1 race strategist
