ha. ha. ha.
joe smith is garbage.
comes in and gives up a run before he even throws a pitch.

last time i saw him pitch (a few days ago) santiago went 7 scoreless on 111 pitches, smith comes in and gives up a HR on the first pitch.
dude is bade now.

I feel bad for Trout. He deserves better.

I usually don't like to come into the opposing team's fan thread and kick while they're down, but it was such a facepalm moment I couldn't resist lol

no it was a joke. i couldnt believe it. announcers were saying "ive never seen a balk where the guy drops the ball before, and ive been doing this for 20+ years" lol...

edit: and these were OUR announcers. one of them was gubicza who used to be a pitcher for the royals.

WELL FUCK!

Angels right-hander Nick Tropeano has been diagnosed with a medium- to high-grade tear of the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow, the team informed reporters (Twitter link via Mike DiGiovanna of the L.A. Times). While he’s headed for a second opinion, Tommy John surgery is the likely outcome. While he could potentially aim for the same stem-cell treatment that teammates Andrew Heaney and Garrett Richards have utilized — Heaney has been ticketed for Tommy John surgery in spite of said alternative — MLB.com’s Alden Gonzalez notes (links to Twitter) that doing so would mean that Tropeano’s recovery would linger well into the 2018 season if he attempts the treatment and ultimately finds it unsuccessful.

fucking 3 SP going down with TJS required this season. CJ wilson out for the year without even throwing a pitch, skaggs still hasnt returned from his TJS.
better trade weaver, santiago and shoemaker before their arms fall off.

Pujols: 5 for 9, 4 HR, 11 RBI last 3 games.

good to see the Roids are kicking in finally after a dismal start to the season

he still has 5 years on his contract, cant make it completely obvious like big papi.

Skaggs may finally be joining the rotation next week!

Would be nice to see what he's capable of. He had 12K's in a AAA rehab game (5 2/3 innings, 1 hit).

If only we didnt have this TJS bug going around like you said FLC. Far too many key pieces of the rotation out

Wouldn't be surprised to see Santiago delt before the deadline. He's a decent middle of the rotation guy with one year left on his deal.

We really need to rebuild the farm system because we're not winning anytime soon.

Shoe would be another good guy to deal but idk if they'll pull the trigger on him.
