Angels @ Tribe

• Laley23

  

  Make-up game from earlier in the year sees the Angels throw Jared Weaver while the trip will send Danny Salazar to the bump, fresh off his best start of his career.
  
  A win here would be nice, as we have the Twins on deck and can do some damage with the mathups...but don't want to lose momentum we have built up.

  Angels are rolling in scary fashion.....peaking too early perhaps, but they are rolling

  It will be September 8 and we are still in it.
  
  I feel like the girl in the State Farm commercial who doesn't have the money and the old man dips the fishing rod saying he's got a dollar for her:
  
  "oh...ya gotta be quicker!"

  Go Tribe.

  The angels have had the tribe's number lately. I expect them to lose and our season to end.

  Notes:
  
  Angels winners of 10 of the last 12.
  Tribe winners of 8 of 11.
  
  The Angels have feasted off of any pitching but sport a 62-37 record in games vs right handed starters.
  
  Very interesting to note:
  
  The Angels are 31-32 vs teams with a winning record. They have really picked on the Astros and Rangers this year.
  The Indians are 36-32 vs teams with a winning record.
  
  Starting pitcher notes:
  
  Weaver's last 3 starts- 2-1 with 19.2 IP and 5 ER. 17 k's and 5 walks over that stretch. Two wins were vs the A's and one of the games was 7 innings of shutout ball.
  
  Salazar's last 3 starts- 2-0 with a ND. 20 IPs and 1 ER over that stretch. Complete game shutout last time out vs Detroit. 5 innings of scoreless ball vs the Royals the time before that. 19 K's and 4 walks.
  
  Weaver is 8-4 lifetime vs the Tribe in 18 starts. His team is 12-6 in those games. Salazar has one start vs the Angels. It was last year and he didn't get a decision in the Tribe's 4-1 in LA last August.
  
  Go Tribe.

  Weaver carving up the Tribe's potent offense like a hot knife through butter.
  
  Salazar gave up two hits in the first but got Pujols to GIDP.
  
  No score. Bottom 4.
• TBone14

  

  Angels on the board and still threatening in the 5th.
  
  1-0. Might be all Weaver needs today.
• TBone14

  

  Calhoun hits a 2 run homer.
  
  3-0 Halos. Good team that is hot. Buzzsaw.
  
  Gotta find some offense to help these pitchers. They can't post shutouts every damn night.

  We are gonna lose today, but it would be nice to see some runs scored heading to the Twins series...
• HitsRus

  

  6-0 now in the 5th....Salazar has been chased, and Zac Mac is on
• TBone14

  

  Tribe on the board. Chiz with a two run bomb.
• TBone14

  

  Lonnie pulled the Tribe within 3 at 6-3 but McAllister has given it back plus another.
  
  8-3 Halos.
• TBone14

  

  Glad these assholes aren't sticking around town for 3 days. Don't they know they aren't allowed to score this many runs?
• Laley23

  

  I got the Angles and Dodgers in Vegas in May. They had horrible odds (relatively speaking). Both teams have turned it completely around. As such, I take full responsibility for today's beat down.

  Gonna need someone to start the Twins thread.....

  I can do this. Had a nice run early in the year. I'll gather my notes and try to rekindle some magic. Work can wait...this is a pennant race. I'll pump it out shortly.
