I don't want to sound all "Debbie Downer" but this was brutal to read in many ways;

 

After their best road trip in nearly 50 years, the Los Angeles Angels are hoping to carry that success into their first home game in 15 days.

 

A matchup with the Milwaukee Brewers might help.

 

Before heading back on the road again, the Angels start a three-game set Monday night against the Brewers, losers in 10 of 14 on the road.

 

Los Angeles (36-30) has overcome a slow start by winning 15 of its last 19 and used a 4-1 finish to its previous homestand as a springboard into its season-high 14-game trek.

[sheethead]

On paper this is a bloodbath. Guess we'll never know when the Brewers will jack three or four bombs, but its most likely to happen against Rich Harden or Zach Duke.

 

Angels sweep, good thing I will be sleeping for most of it.

I'm on my way to Anaheim tonight. I haven't been down there since Game 6 of the World Series in '02...now that was a memorable game. I'm there with a fellow cheesehead buddy tonight and taking my undefeated daughter on Wednesday (she's 3-0 attending Brewers games...poor kid, she has no idea). I used to get down there each year before the switch to the NL.

 

I got an e-mail that the UW Alums of OC will be tailgating under the "Big A" tonight starting at 5PM. We plan on dropping by. I'll be the guy in the Jerry Augustine jersey with a beer in my hand!

[berniebrewer4life]

Well, at least i'll fall asleep before the angels get to see Wolf the second time around.

[Funketown]

Which massacre will be worse: Milwaukee vs. Los Angeles or Brazil vs. North Korea?

[Invader3K]

Anyone else getting ESPN News instead of the Cards/Mariners game on ESPN?

[wibadgers23]

Was hoping to watch Lucroy play tonight since I didn't get to watch any of the three games he started in a row. It's gonna be a late night. Hopefully I can stay awake.

[BrewCrewForever]

Kottaras starting over Lucroy. Not cool.

Glad to hear you will be representing out on the west coast for all us Brewers fans. Which Augie jersey do you have? Home white or powder blue?

[davemakovec]

Hopefully Wolf likes the return to Southern California.

[brewerjamie15]

Anyone wanna watch the game with me at a bar in the 'Stallis area?

[hawing]

Kottaras starting over Lucroy. Not cool.

He's goin' goin', back back, to Cali Cali....of course.

 

Another example of not enough Lucroy love: Sunday was Jonathan's birthday and the Brewers didn't put a shoutout up on the scoreboard. Cold.

Conversely, they put up a Happy Birthday Gregg Zaun several days in advance of his birthday (since it fell during a road trip).

 

But I digress. Come on, Brewers. Surprise us?

[crewcrazy]

Kottaras starting over Lucroy. Not cool.

Judging by the way the first couple times went, I wouldn't count on Lucroy catching Wolf again, even if Lucroy somehow becomes the starting catcher.

[theavrock]

Was Prince staring in to the dugout waiting for Macha to come out?

 

I might be reading too much in to it, but isn't that saying something about how Prince feels about Macha?

[wibadgers23]

Was Prince staring in to the dugout waiting for Macha to come out?

I was thinking the same thing. Kinda interesting.

[BrewCrewForever]

Not a very good top of the 1st. Yikes.

[pete]

Its all about command!

True, I still think it was poppycock how Wolf treated Lucroy in those starts.

[pmallon]

never seen a player stare into a dugout like that.....

[Invader3K]

Yeah, Prince looked somewhat disgruntled that no one came out of the dugout to help him argue the call.

+1

 

I still wonder if there needs to be a shoving match ala prince and Manny or Prince storming the opposing locker room to juice the club up if Macha isn't providing the motivation

[PNut33]

Anyone else hungry for cheese sandwiches tonight?

Nice double play there.

[TheCrew07]

Wolf... even if you're right, you're wrong... just go sit down and get ready to the pitch the next inning... 7IP would be great from you tonight.

My initial thoughts as well.
