That wasn't even close to a swing. Yoan might be too pretty for baseball. He's making all the umps jealous. 

JFC. They're trying to job Moncada in any way possible. That wasn't a swing. It was close, but it wasn't a swing. 

Even Steve Stone is getting annoyed with the calls Moncada gets

Yoan can't catch a break from the umps.  With that said, he's 0 for the 2nd half so far with nothing hit well.

The All Star break was not timed well...

Nor was facing two lefties and two guys with great off speed pitches in his first 4 games back.  Seems like he's down 1-2 every at bat.

Scratched due to illness. I put a conspiracy in Trade Winds, there were some eyeball tweets before he got scratched lol

So you were the one!

Lol...at this point this might be true

Haven't seen an Anderson misplay like that for awhile. 

starts hanging pitches once he goes to the stretch....it never fails

The Anderson boo birds will certainly be out & about tomorrow in full flock if we end up losing by one.

It was a bad hop.  He plays so extremely deep that if there's ever a bad bounce, he has no chance.  

Wow the Angels are all over Giolito 2nd time through the order. Trout and Upton nearly went B2B there.

They will for sure but but obviously was a bad hop 

i'm kind of sick of all these dh/1b types that aren't that good.

Poor Davidson, his career definitely peaked opening day this year.  I like the guy, so hopefully he can get it going again.

I'm about ready for Davidson to be DFA'd. Get more ABs to Palka/Delmonico 

Davidson is looking more and more like he isn't part of the future.

that ball was killed.  Lucas gonna get someone killed in the bleachers.

Eh, crap. I thought it was that Giolito wasn't throwing strikes, maybe he just isn't good. 

that hitting mechanism of ohtani is pretty sick, just incredible precision how he gets the barrel through the zone with that timing 

If (big if) Ohtani can stay healthy enough to play a full season, I see an MVP in his future

I mean, Trout, Upton, & Ohtani are pretty good hitters.  The fact is he’s improving and that’s all that matters.

Same. Everyone seems to be talking about choosing one of Delmonico or Palka when/if Jimenez gets called up - I'm leaning towards DFA'ing Davidson and letting Delmonico/Palka split DH duties.

i really think they should just let ohtani hit and play of full time.

Kinsler with this umpire is like the opposite of Yoan and every umpire.
