Hunter "pop up" Renfroe, that is IF he makes contact.

Q is hitting a rhythm again as manager. I love how he's been managing these pitchers and I'm saying that before seeing how this inning goes.

GabyKeepsMeWarm 05-03-2025 07:57 PM

Mrs Robinson theme...


Where have you gone, Dairon Blanco, Hunter Renfroe makes me want to die... aye, aye, aye...

GabyKeepsMeWarm 05-03-2025 07:58 PM

Outstanding work Daniel! Man, has he found a niche in the 'pen, or what?

Ron Swanson 05-03-2025 07:58 PM

Nice play Isbel!

Why Not? 05-03-2025 07:58 PM

Bubic and Lynch kicked ass tonight.

PHOG 05-03-2025 08:00 PM

Nice! An insurance run (or two) would be excellent

Indeed.

Izzy!!!!

wazu 05-03-2025 08:02 PM

Isbel is driving the bus!

PHOG 05-03-2025 08:02 PM

That works!!

GabyKeepsMeWarm 05-03-2025 08:02 PM

Isbel hanging a big dong! No doubter!!!

There's your insurance PHOG!

Ask and you shall receive

GabyKeepsMeWarm 05-03-2025 08:04 PM

Damn... just gotta tip your hat on that one. Outstanding bare handed grab and throw from Gunnar there.

TLO 05-03-2025 08:05 PM

Torpedo bat FTW

wazu 05-03-2025 08:05 PM

3-hole hitter batting .175 and we're in May now.

GabyKeepsMeWarm 05-03-2025 08:06 PM

Damn Vinnie... another no doubter!

tk13 05-03-2025 08:06 PM

That looked like a real Vinnie home run.

wazu 05-03-2025 08:07 PM

Well I guess I need to shit talk him more often! Same thing has always happened when I shit on Mecole Hardman.

Love CP LMAO

PHOG 05-03-2025 08:07 PM

That's a Vinnie Dong!!

lcarus 05-03-2025 08:07 PM

Suck on that Vinny dong. These O's ain't Royal!

Everyone we talked shit about is homering. Renfroe, it’s on you now.

Massey hit! Hope he's figuring it out.

GabyKeepsMeWarm 05-03-2025 08:12 PM

So with the Braves/Dodgers game still in delay, has this game been getting total nationwide coverage? Kinda cool if it was and we win with a national audience watching, all 20 or 30 of them who are actually tuning in...

If that were to happen we'd have to create a new religion.

Just sitting here watching Hunter renfroe making my dad sad again.

blake1771 05-03-2025 08:14 PM

he put a good swing on it at least.

Gio just wasn’t quite good enough. The Royals certainly didn’t hold him back. He just didn’t hit enough.

And Mullins is cooked? He’s one of the best hitters in the American League and has been an above-average performer offensively for five straight seasons.

Maybe sit a few plays out and don’t talk for a while. You’re embarrassing yourself.

Look at you throwing rocks at the Angels while in a glass house.

srvy 05-03-2025 08:15 PM

No go yard for Renfro. At least it was hit hard to 3rd instead of the weak infield popup.

GabyKeepsMeWarm 05-03-2025 08:16 PM

Waters in for India. Hope India's alright. He really stretched out on that bang bang play at first.

PHOG 05-03-2025 08:18 PM

The Ferminator takes care of that pop foul :clap:

lol. Hey, I get that you’re a “never criticize the home team” type of guy, and I respect that. It’s just not my thing. I didn’t say Vinnie should be cut or demoted, I said he needed a game or two to get his head right. I was as happy as the next guy when he crushed that homer. Maybe that will get him going. But that’s what we thought last Saturday night and prior to this homer, he had what, 2 hits this week? Maybe 1? He’s got to get going and produce more consistently. If you disagree with that, I don’t know what to tell you.

I’m talking about the fact he got full-time playing time for a bad team (though it was the 2016 Angels that collapsed to a sub-.500 record, a team he wasn’t good enough to be a regular for).

GabyKeepsMeWarm 05-03-2025 08:30 PM

Who's got the 9th? Schreiber?

They've really faceplanted so far this season after such a good couple of years. Gotta think they'll eventually get going. Hopefully no sooner than after tomorrow.

GabyKeepsMeWarm 05-03-2025 08:36 PM

Eat a bag of shit O'Hearn, you dirty no good goat****ing cockgobbling rat **** son of a mother****er.

Why Not? 05-03-2025 08:38 PM

Is that 4 shutouts by our pitching in the past 8 games ?

srvy 05-03-2025 08:38 PM

Shutout

PHOG 05-03-2025 08:38 PM

I mean, with all that talent, why aren't they playing for chips? Coaching?

ping2000 05-03-2025 08:38 PM

Nice!!!!

And that's your ballgame folks! Nice win! And that seals a winning road trip with the chance to really put an exclamation point on it tomorrow. All the better, considering nobody from the AL Central wants to lose anymore.

Why Not? 05-03-2025 08:39 PM

Winning trip. Pressure free tomorrow, might as well take the series.

PHOG 05-03-2025 08:39 PM

That's ANOTHER win!!

Yes. They've also allowed 3 runs or less in 10 of the last 12 games. Allowing an average of 1.8 runs a game over that stretch.

Every Royals pitcher today finished the game with an ERA under 2.00. The pitching has been absolutely outstanding.

Don't make me do spreadsheet work on my one day off. Is your position that Chris Getz was better than Johnny Giovatella during the, let's say, three seasons before the Angels acquired Giovatella? WAR is a counting stat I might remind you.

And how many runs is our offense averaging? 1.9 per game?


EDIT: If I did the math right, it's 3.8.

My position is that neither one of them was good enough to be a major league starter, and suggesting the Royals screwed over Gio is stupid.
