  7. Can they at least send a message by firing Johnny Washington like…tonight? Make it seem like they give a shit at all that the players aren’t hitting for shit. The only time our offense looked halfway decent was when we were hitting an unsustainable amount of home runs.

    Everything about the offense looks bad. Swings and misses, taking pitches right down the dick, not drawing walks. So many completely uncompetitive AB’s.

    I’m really just trying to hold on to some small sliver of hope that it’s our coaching’s fault and Trout isn’t actually washed.

  8. Win series against red hot Giants.

    Lose series against garbage Pirates.

    Baseball, huh

  10. Hardest schedule in baseball by far, especially on offense, and the team is still hanging tough.

    Just stay healthy.

  11. Kochanowicz looked good, its too bad the offense was shit again. I dont think they will fire the hitting coach so early in the season but man this team fell off hard.

  15. The famous Angels fan base silver lining tonight…The mighty Pirates leave town tomorrow. 

  18. About to get swept by the Pirates… Looks like this team gave up when it got real against the Astros and Rangers.

  20. I almost had hope that we’d be a .500 team this season. I still think that’s our peak potential. I’m just hoping to not finish at the bottom of the division

  23. The increasing “Fire Ron/Johnny Washington” fervor got me thinking. How much manager/coaching staff turnover does the Angels have compared to the rest of MLB over the last decade?

  25. Well done jack nice bounce back game. The rest of these bums can suck a fat one.
