In a way, I'm happy the Angels decided to bunt there. Always glad to get the first out of the inning, especially with a pitcher who can strike hitters out.

My best guess is that Ozuna will attempt a steal.
Go get it, Pablo.
Good call. Thankfully Molina didn't get it out cleanly.

You'd also have to be nuts to think that these hitters can keep looking this bad for an entire season.
You sure of that? I would clearly say that our pitchers have pitched better than they were expected to as compared to our hitters and their expectations.
KW.....please, please, please do something about our offense. You have to be nuts to think our starting pitching will continue to perform at the level they have.

I don't expect much from this inning. Surprise me.
Like the last inning, our best chance at getting a RISP is a hit-by-pitch.

I TOLD YA'LL THAT WE NEVER f***ING SCORE ON THE CONTACT PLAY. DO YOU BELIEVE ME NOW?!?!
You do know that the next batter made an out on the play? That didn't matter in the long run. I would rather see us send the runner on 3rd hoping for a miscue by the defense than to just stand on the base and wait for a 2 out hit.
The thing that makes our offense so awful right now is that it's not just the end result of their AB.....so many of the hitters are taking strikes, and swinging at bad pitches.
This is f***ing ridiculous. AJ takes the first pitch right down the f***ing plate, but then swings at a pitch that was clearly inside. The offensive execution has been terrible lately.

1st pitch popout
Holy f*** our offense is a joke
As long as we keep winning more games than we lose.....KW and Ozzie won't even think about making changes. It's a shame though...our pitching deserves a lot more support than they are receiving.
QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ May 27, 2005 -> 03:17 AM)
He's going to come around. Haven't you heard?
Seriously, he's an automatic out and his defense is overrated. Gotta do something about that.
Rob Mackowiak would be a great fit for our team right now.
QUOTE(elrockinMT @ May 27, 2005 -> 03:03 AM)
I would be embarassed to take this team offense to a little league game
We're going to get blown out by the Rangers if our offense continues to suck this weekend. The Rangers are tearing the cover off the ball lately. Even Hidalgo is on fire now.
QUOTE(ReinsdorfSucks @ May 26, 2005 -> 04:33 AM)
ozzie overmanages the bullpen. if he doesn't learn what the hell he's doin this team will NOT win if they make the playoffs
Lord knows I'm the biggest overanalyzer on this board.....but that was the right decision. Marte usually makes Anderson look stupid at the plate.
QUOTE(Rowand44 @ May 26, 2005 -> 04:32 AM)
Wow, risky play by damaso there but if pays off. 1 down.
I think my heart skipped a beat when he made that throw to second. How many times do you see a pitcher throw that ball away late in a game?
