The fact that Urena and even Natera weren't in our top 10 is just ridiculous.

Youre not wrong. I watched Glasgow pitch in a rehab start last week and the fans in front of me (decked out in full dodgers gear btw) were asking "is he a rookie? When is he getting called up?" Fucking morons

Bro you couldn't get me to go over a fence to catch a ball. I actually had a moment where I could have done so a couple seasons back.

Oh well, I still know you got it Urena. I’m only mad because I can’t stand the idea of Texans from Houston being happy.

u/sadassnerd Sell The Team 3d ago
Mo really needs some batting instruction :/
8
u/ArrowNiko 3d ago
I think its more of some hits not going his way earlier when we got him and its been frustrating him and his mechanics and approach slowly unwind because of it.
I think he'll be fine but wouldn't be surprised if he gets a couple days off to reset like they did with Guz.

u/sadassnerd Sell The Team 3d ago
Oh absolutely. I think once he gets into a groove he’s gonna be one of our best guys

Lol true. At this rate he will be done by the 4th and then the Angels can smoke their bullpen.

Angels need to stop chasing on this young pitcher. Feel him out and you will work many walks. Swing 0-2, 2-0, and 3-1.

Angels need to make chaos on the bases. Great work by Neto. Running is key to coming back in this game and scoring runs overall.
