RZZZA Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Doesn't even matter, Gavin just ended the game and made it academic. No need to call Viciedo names, it wasn't an easy ball to cut off with the backhand, and who really expected to beat Weaver in a must-win game for the Angels anyways? Probably nobody....as evidenced by the dead gamethread. dead game thread because it's football sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitekrazy Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Sep 23, 2012 -> 03:16 PM) Fine, then bat him at 5. Good luck finding a left handed bat that gives you 40&100 on the free agent market So far the Sox haven't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 23, 2012 -> 04:21 PM) No idea why Viciedo just hasn't been permanently benched (outside of facing LHP). He sucks at the plate and his defense has been awful of late as well. Would it really even matter? We were losing this game no matter what after we let Weaver off the hook in the first inning. The only surprise is how far along Floyd got before imploding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSqwert Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 We should forfeit the remainder of the season. What an embarrassment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Jered Weaver on the bump. Might as well be wearing a Santana or Sabathia jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 What a choke job. Everybody on the offense can't hit for s*** when guys are on base. It's unfair to expect our pitchers to throw shutouts every night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 BTW, that inning all started cause Gavin used his crappy cutter on 4 straight pitches to walk Trout. None of that damage came on his curve that inning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RZZZA Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Baron was giving me a hard time for suggesting that we should bench Paulie, Youk and Dunn... whatever man, we havent scored for weeks. We got swept. Whats the worst that could have happened if we benched all our underperforming vets? We get swept? Oh that happened any way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a strange feeling, going to those Indians games will be, for someone. We could still be in first place by one game, the way we've been playing this week. Hopefully momentum (big victory today over KC on the road) or karma doesn't exist, or the Indians will sweep us and get revenge for 2005 during the final week of the season. I don't know. If the season ends like this....with these consistently atrocious performances, this offseason might be as equally depressing as last year's.

JohnCangelosi Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 We are an awful baseball team right now, but what's funny is Detroit is just as bad. That 6th inning today was the worst I've ever seen defensively from a "contender". So who knows maybe we'll still be the tallest midget in the central Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
