Guessing the roof will be closed tonight. Feels like some of our newer players like Hernandez will take time to get used to hitting the ball at T-Mobile Park. So many close home runs, wonder if it changes with warmer weather.

 

[Jerhawk]

Fingers crossed they find a way to score more points than the Angels

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Remember what the late Ron Fairley told us: If you score more than the other team...........you're gonna' win the game.

Yes, it gets better with warmer weather. That's true all around the country. Obviously doesn't apply to indoor stadiums, but when the roof is closed at SafeCo, it is NOT indoors. Maybe less wind, but it is still cold and damp in there.

Angels' Anthony Rendon suspended 5 games for altercation with fan

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon was suspended five games on Monday for a public altercation with a fan in Oakland last week, videos of which circulated through social media.

The decision was announced Monday by Michael Hill, Major League Baseball's senior vice president of on-field operations. If Rendon does not appeal, he will begin serving his suspension during the team's road game against the division rival Seattle Mariners on Monday evening.

What a dummy.

 

[Jerhawk]

Good job France stealing 3rd.

Too bad nobody could get him home with no outs

 

[Bobblehead]

He just crushed it.

 

[Sports Hernia]

2 f***ing hits! SMDH. Glad we don’t need bats.

 

[Hawk-Lock]

Baseball is a weird sport. Only major sport you can literally go from good to bad without much reason. We are playing pretty awful baseball as of now.

 

[Jerhawk]

Back breaking homerun given up in the 8th.

1-4 to start the season. Servais' seat is warming up

 

[beastalamode]

18th highest payroll out of 30 teams I hear

 

[Jerhawk]

Poor hitting. Poor pitching. Poor defense. Mental mistakes. This team, this franchise, is infuriating.

They finally get people to come out and support them, and they play like the same ol Mariners. What an embarrassment. Being an Ms fan truly is testing at times

 

[Jerhawk]

90 wins by overachieving and winning close games and utilizing the new ghost runner rule got this team to thinking they're better than they are.

Truth is this is an average at best squad, now being exposed. Teams aren't taking them lightly anymore.

Their division got better, while Dip-oh-no got complacent and ownership acted a fool. Absolutely shameful that Julio's career will be wasted here.

 

[Crizilla]

Winky and Frazier are off to good starts. Course.

 

[Bobblehead]

Well... we sucking out of the gate.

 

[Jerhawk]

Winky and Frazier are off to good starts. Course.

Figures. Either this team is cursed, our the hitting coach needs to go.

I guess Tim Laker wasn't the issue. Maybe it's something else. Servais?

 

[SonicHawk]

I am hurting.

 

[Chapow]

Poor hitting. Poor pitching. Poor defense. Mental mistakes.

Yep. There isn't a single area this team is playing well. Pitching is giving up a ton of hits and walks. Defense is committing errors and just generally not making plays. Hits are too few and too far in-between. Terrible start to the season.

 

[Chapow]

Winky and Frazier are off to good starts. Course.

And of course, Hernandez and Wong aren't. It feels like this happens a lot.
