What's with
Erstad's picture for the Angels?

But he's not
on the team anymore.

it's a joke Coach
don't try and read into it.

Still why
not put the real "face" of the Angels, Garrett Anderson?

"God I hate you" said Coach

Can you please retire from LL?
No one likes you.  You say dumb things.  The type of things, that when read, make one's jaw drop in utter amazement at the lack of intelligence that is included in each of your posts.  Making fun of you was okay at first.  In fact, I enjoyed it, it was funny.  But when you make fun of someone for so long and they don't realize they're not liked, it becomes rather tedious.  CoachOwensMoralCompass was as funny to me as to anyone else, but for chrissakes, can there be a conversation about beer or other fun things that are bad for you without you intervening for once?  It's gone from funny to rather irritating.  

I know you're going to respond to me with some sort of lame witty insult about how no, it is me who is not liked.  Well, yeah, I'm probably not the most popular here, but whatever.  Or you'll ask Jeff to put a stop to this.  Why can't he put a stop to the insight you add to this website, then?  Why can't we just get along?  Because you are not fun to talk to.

Stop saying dumb things.  If you have any thought at all that what you are saying might be partially stupid, just don't say it.  I think the red flags that tell you "Hey, maybe I shouldn't say this" don't go up in your mind when something dumb crops up in there.

Anyways, enough ranting.  Just like, go away, and stuff.  We're bored of your antics.

I must've missed the
coachowens hate-fest, because I still think it's funny.

He could put Willits
but no one knows who he is.

LOL
I don't know what's more surprising:

Vidro on that list

-or-

A-Rod not being on that list (how many walkoff HRs this year again?)

br

by sirbrianwilson on Apr 21, 2007 1:16 PM PDT   0 recs

At the rate A-Rod's going
He'll hit 117 homers and over 50 2B this season. Unreal, no?
Thijs must be his "I can walk" year.

Willie Bloomquist.

Julio Mateo
The next Goose Gossage.

by Gomez on Apr 21, 2007 2:21 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Julio Mateo
The way he kills the team every time he pitches, I believe that Goose Gangrene might be a slightly more appropriate name.
The throw to the plate will be... LATE! The Mariners are going to play for the American League Championship! I don't believe it, it just continues! My Oh My!

by AFRanger on Apr 21, 2007 2:34 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Who do you think
is a better left-handed specialist, Mike Myers or George Sherril?

Sherril

by Scruffy Lefty on Apr 21, 2007 3:01 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Sherrill
I actually think Sherrill is among the best lefty specialist in the game.

A'rod only had 2 hits and 1 RBI
what the heck is wrong with him??

he's slumping

by MFAN on Apr 21, 2007 4:55 PM PDT   0 recs

He's reminding me of Ichiro in the summer of '04
Remember when we'd get disappointed that he'd only go 2-5 in a game?

The Marlins
play in the biggest minor league stadium in America.

This is gonna be one shitty baseball weekend if the Mariners suck as well.

Just like how last night we were the anti-VT team.

Colon,
packing on the pounds.

"We expect another terrific crowd"
I assume he's speaking in terms of quantity.

Who, the wait staff?

Ichiro
Good start. Also, Colon is done.

Ichiro is good
when he's not popping up.

The disadvantage of 700k MLB.tv:
Better picture of Bartolo Colon's face.

Kind of like HiDef and Joe Buck.

Bad Beltre :(
At least take a few pitches before you ground out.

by Graham on Apr 21, 2007 6:09 PM PDT   0 recs

Productive outs
That's what we should be focusing on.

Beltre OPS over the .800 coming into the game.

hahaha
hudler just called Vidro a professional hitter.

by MFAN on Apr 21, 2007 6:10 PM PDT   0 recs

Technically he is.
So is Ramontiago.

by Jeff on Apr 21, 2007 6:10 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Vidro.
Why haven't you made a productive out yet?

by JLC on Apr 21, 2007 6:11 PM PDT   0 recs

Matchups
Dice-K vs. Ichiro?  Pfft.

Bartolo vs. Vidro!  Is there enough room on the field?

who's uglier
colon or vidro?

Colon has that pretty curly hair at least.

it's god ugly, like a Pig with Magglio hair

Vidro
Colon's Cy Young, even if it wasn't deserved, is still sexy.

And here comes the Ibanez flyout.
No sir, I don't like it. ~Mr.Horse

by Goose on Apr 21, 2007 6:12 PM PDT   0 recs

Vidro.
That wasn't very productive. But at least you made an out.

by JLC on Apr 21, 2007 6:12 PM PDT   0 recs

Striking out Vidro
Not something terribly impressive.

by Graham on Apr 21, 2007 6:12 PM PDT   0 recs

Jose Vidro was added to the team
because he puts the ball in play.

by Jeff on Apr 21, 2007 6:12 PM PDT   0 recs

Actually
Vidro racked up the pitch count...unfortunately we're right on par with the usual pitches per inning after Beltre swung at the first pitch.

Go home, Ichiro.
There's nothing for you here.

Leadoff double and the run doesn't score.
I hate this team.
No sir, I don't like it. ~Mr.Horse

by Goose on Apr 21, 2007 6:13 PM PDT   0 recs

Way to waste a leadoff double, guys
Also, I got told that I should 'watch a game or two' for criticising Vidro on the M's facebook group. :P

Ibanez
That would've been a productive out one out ago. You should work on that.

by JLC on Apr 21, 2007 6:14 PM PDT   0 recs

whatever
it's not like the Ho was gonna hold a 1-0 lead.

by MFAN on Apr 21, 2007 6:14 PM PDT   0 recs

Well while we wait...
...for their terrible lineup to come up, Wisconsin lost AGAIN in the bottom 9th...they blew their lead.

Its in the genes of the organization.

"Gary Matthews Junior...

He's retiring?

Hey Ramirez
Don't give up the productive out here. That's costly.

Last night
Simms said Colon is pushing 270.

On the Angels broadcast they said he is slimmed down from last year.

Hmm.
