Critics to Ervin Santana: YOU SUCK!!!


Let's break down this debacle: 2 walks, 4 hits, 5 earned runs, 1 out recorded, before the string was pulled on this chump.

Thankfully we have Suga'Shane Moseley, ready and more than willing to take this spot in the rotation. As for Santana, if he sees anything other than garbage time action I will be thoroughly upset. He has shown that he loses his head at the slightest sign of trouble and is a Ramon Ortiz proselyte.

Moseley pitched with surety, accuracy, and skill, to put down all batters in his 5 1/3 innings. The Angels bats were restored with this pick up and fought hard to tie the game. They got one in the 3rd off Hoagie's error, two back in the 4th as Gary Matthews Juiced a homer followed by Morales' golf-shot homer. The comeback continued with Cab Fare's rbi single, scoring Mathis, and G to the Iz-A's sac fly that scored Cabbie. Did you see the look on Jeff Weaver's face as he was taken out of the game? Classic. The Mariners deserve him.

In the 7th the Angels took the lead when Vlad doubled in Mathis (he had a good night at 2 for 3, 2 runs, and a walk) but gave it back on Ichiro's rbi single.

The Angels won it on the Cuban's double to score GM Juicer and Vlad stroking a single, driving in More-Alice and Reggie and the Full Effect. Mice Hair had a nice hit also, which drove in Cab Fare, but on the same hit, Vlad was meat at the plate. Angels win 10-6 in awesome come back fashion!

Yo Stephen Smith, are you still in love with Santana? I bet you are...

Today at 1:35 pm, Weave it to Beaver faces Felix "El Gato" Hernandez in what should prove to be an awesome match up. Will the Angels sweep 'em in Seattle? Well, I for one can't wait to find out!

Ha, ha, and I see Wise&Eck's comment on Smith's site. All is well.

Dustin was certainly one of the heroes last night. Magic? He "vowed" not to return to Triple-A again. Perhaps he will just retire instead. I really do want him to pitch well, but last night was tough to watch.

I will be hitting the local pizza joint for lunch to watch the Angels finish the sweep.

Magic sucks. Plain and simple. I really would love to see Future Angels try to spin last night's "performance" by Santana.

"He's a great kid, the media makes him out to be a pariah, he's afraid of train whistles, everyone has one bad game, etc. etc. etc."

Seriously, he's horrible. Kudos to Moseley for restoring order and saving Magic's behind.

And kudos to Bavasi for signing Weaver the Elder. He is awful.

It was great to see the Angels pull off the sweep of the M's. Weave it to Beaver was fantastic and the bats were working magically. Very, very awesome!!!
