Yeah, who knows, the division really is wide open. The angels have talent, they have been so incredibly inept but maybe this is their year

Personally, I didn't think Kirby was that bad last night. Had a lot of 2 strike counts and couldn't finish hitters off. He wasn't missing by much on a lot of those hitters. His velocity was fine. Long term I think he will be fine. Next start will be at home vs the Nationals on likely 6, possibly 7 days rest.
The frustrating part for me was all of the runners left on base especially in (I believe the 5th inning) when they had bases loaded. Just can't get a big hit. However, when you are trotting 4, possibly 5 guys out there that are minor league players, that is what happens. Sounds like Julio is D2D.
Offense has to get back to working counts, stealing bases, and manufacturing runs. You can't expect to get a walk or two and Cal to hit a HR to win every game.

See where the red Sox picked up a possible casas replacement, Ryan Noda from the angels. He's been hitting 148/.364/.270 so far this season....in AAA

Re: 5/22 GT: Kirby Your Enthusiasm
Weird how your argument is usually "Management this, management that, this is what management is doing" when there's not even an argument on that subject and it has nothing to do with what people are talking about. Like SOB said about you, arguing C instead of A vs. B. It's just the weirdest damn thing that you do.Donn Beach wrote: ↑Fri May 23, 2025 5:37 amDipoto has options, he's not stuck, there's moves he could make. But he's not making them, I really believe he's pretty happy with things. So far they have been overcoming their challenges.
