Whats up with Nolan? Rookie wall?

What's up with everyone else as well? John Lackey is doing well. Only a few hits so far. Now If you asked this yesterday and Nolan got 0 hits, yeah maybe I'd be wondering what's up, however, that's not the case. He's been one of our best hitters since the AS game.

Wow, the score went from 0-0 to 5-0 in a second.

Of course, this is to be expected after yesterday's game. We're just not a solid enough team to play very well consistently. Hopefully the front office fixs this during the offseason!

Man it isn't like I said cut the guy...geez. Just like to see him snap out of it. The guy can hit decent pitchers btw. Mariano Rivera is no slouch.

Yeah I got ya. I'd like to see Nolan a little more aggressive, he seems to always wait to get one strike before swinging at anything. I guess maybe he likes to see a strike first or something.

Who was that guy in the third and what did he do with Matusz!?

He was absolutely dealing... Then that mess.... Then dealing again...

Yeah, I think he got out of the groove or something. Also the AJ error hurt. It probably should be maybe 3 but most likely 4 runs for the Angels instead of being 5.

Welcome to the Terry Crowley school of hitting.

    • Mayo coming back from injury could have his debut in Baltimore delayed. 
    • Wasn't a huge fan of his swing for that last out today but coming in to pinch hit with 2 outs isn't easy.
    • Interpreting Malike's comment that way is theoretically possible, but I didn't take it that way--didn't feel that shade was being thrown on me at all. But thanks for the concern.
    • People are being a bit ridiculous with the holier than thou takes criticizing a little humor. I am not saying what happened couldn’t cause a significant concussion, but it would be a bit of a fluke if it did. Mullins barely hit him with the bat and he had a helmet on. The fact that it was in the back of the head did make him more vulnerable, but this wasn’t the type of thing you see and think he was lucky to be alive.  Guys have probably hit their heads harder on the top of the dugout or on the fence making catches.  And note this comes from someone whose son has suffered severe concussions and who is well aware of the dangers associated with them. In short, people need to lighten up a bit on guys like Roy.  It was a little gallows humor. 
    • Yeah, you read that wrong. LA2 is one of my favorite posters here and he knows it. No harm, no foul. If you aren't familiar with the game threads, it doesn't matter what the team is doing, people complain about it and people did make that same joke in the game thread long before Roy said it here. Game thread in summary - when the O's are not doing well, it's insufferable, when they are doing well, it's mildly less insufferable. There, that wasn't hard. I'd appreciate it if you didn't assume I'm throwing shade at people. I'll leave that up to you to do, you're really good at it.
    • Comp a. Like Gunnar, and beavers…
    • Wasn't Westburg a 2nd round draft pick?  It's a little early to judge last year's draft.
