Is weaver looking that good. We looking that bad or a little bit a both. Don't have WCIU out here.

 

He does look good tonight, but our hitters have the same approach as usual against him. And now, Danks hits the leadoff hitter.

Everyone is seeing a lot of pitches. Weaver can't locate breaking balls real well. Lucky for him, throwing straight fastballs on the outer half is enough to destroy the Sox.

Anytime we want to move OClayton out of the leadoff spot, that would be fine.

In favor of who though?

What exactly do we move into the leadoff spot.

You forget, he is throwing the changeup. The pitch that hawks says looks like a fastball, but slower. I love that explanation.

I just don't see the point in having our worst hitter getting the most at bats. Danks doesn't look comfortable out of the stretch.

Well you know, the curveball moves at about the same speed as one of those changeups except it curves.

Hawk and DJ are at their absolute best today.

Hit the 9th hitter, walk the leadoff hitter, and he's not even close on his pitches.

Well what's the point in trying if the pitcher can throw at different speeds.

 

Looks like trouble for Danks.

Sarcasm?

Nice effort by Danks, no clue why Angels weren't bunting.

It simply doesn't get worse than Hawk and DJ.

Nicely turned DP right there. Great job by Danks.

Nice double play, as Danks did a great job of keeping the ball down in the zone.

You'd bunt with Vlad batting?

I've always thought that if we had a legit PBP guy and not a storyteller, DJ would at least be tolerable.

He said that with Aybar batting.

Absolutely...Ozzie showed yesterday he's not going to walk Vlad early on. And if he does walk him, then you have them loaded for Hunter.

Oh that is thoroughly different. I was about to say. :lolhitting

I think he's good on Fox games.

I thought you were being sarcastic. That's like the equivalent of having Quentin bunt. It's kind of a waste of an at-bat.

Nasty pitch by Weaver, but our hitters need to realize he's going 3-2 change-up.

Quentin rung up on a 3-2 pitch 6 inches, at least, outside.
