All games are broadcast on Root Sports unless otherwise noted. 6-20 Jhoulys Chacin, RHP vs. Doug Fister, RHP 7:10 6-21 Hector Santiago, LHP vs. Collin McHugh, RHP 7:10 6-22 Matt Shoemaker, RHP vs. Lance McCullers, RHP 1:10
2-1 or 3-0 Astros Don't walk guys in front of Trout and Pujols...if others in lineup beat you so be it, but don't give these guys opportunities to tee off with runners on base.
i'll take 2 out of 3, but I think we can sweep. shoemaker might be a little tough but angels lineup don't scare me. btw 10 dollar view deck 1 seats for tonight's game. from 11 am to 4 pm.
looking for a series win, and hoping to see a longer / more efficient outing out of Lance. Need him to turn a corner and consistently be a top of the rotation guy for this team to have a real shot this year

Yeah - crazy that Hinch would start Springer, Rasmus, and Gomez over a rookie batting 0.200 with no power.
I guess it's completely illegal to put Kemp in LF and let Rasmus DH... Or maybe that .179 AVG and .265 OBP Gattis is putting up against RHP is a MUST HAVE.
not like rasmus is setting the world on fire since his great april. and that .200 avg is a small sample size. he has like 38 at bats. LOL
When Kemp came up the whole OF other than Springer was in a bad funk Gomez is now out 2nd best hitter over the past 3 weeks, so hard to just sit him for Kemp. Rasmus is gonna play vs RHP and George against everyone I would be ok with Kemp at DH instead of Gattis, but Gattis last couple of days been good and he is so streaky can't blame him for keeping him in I want to see more Kemp too, but vs RHP just not a lot of openings.
