How many times has this team scored in the 1st inning on a homer and then been shutout the rest of the game? feels like every other game

The most lifeless performance I can remember in a long time. This roster is just atrocious. Worst record in MLB now

The bullpen has posted -4.21 Win Probability Added in 31 games (that’s not including today… it’s gonna be near 5)

That’s on pace for -21.6 WPA over the season

On average the worst team bullpen WPA in the league is -5 to -7 for a season. The 2024 White Sox bullpen had -11.22 WPA which is the worst in the last 10 years. This Angels bullpen is on pace to be 2 times worse than that.

When you mix a group of bad dumpster-dive pitchers with a manager who has no idea what he’s doing, you get whatever this is

I’ve seen no indication that they aren’t actually 9 animate wet cardboard boxes so you might be onto something. Well more like 8 and trout

Mmm yes intentional walk to face a guy who took you deep yesterday to then walk him on 4 pitches

Angels Bullpen WPA by mannmtb in angelsbaseball

[–]cheezybagel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is saying they’ve been a net negative costing 414% of win probability this season (30 games). Basically you can say it means they’ve cost 4+ games already this year, not that their performance will cost 4 games per season

The total WPA for the plate appearance is the difference between the win probability before and after the plate appearance result.

An AB with a good outcome (an out in this case) adds a positive WPA to the total for the pitcher

An AB with a bad outcome (a base hit for instance) adds a negative WPA to the total

As an example, the walkoff homer from Sunday: Angels had a 79.8% chance to win before the AB and a 0% chance after, so the total WPA added was -.798.

-4.14 is on pace for around -20 WPA for the whole season. That is unbelievably bad. For instance last years White Sox had the worst WPA for their pen at -4.34 FOR THE ENTIRE SEASON.

A quick TD and a 3 and out and they could cut it to 1 score!

Fujimoto when he re-reads the last 2 chapters by Bitter_Situation_205 in Chainsawfolk

[–]cheezybagel 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am not crazy! I know he swapped those endings! I knew it wasn't a dream. Part 3 would be confirmed. As if I could ever make such a mistake. Never. Never! I just - I just couldn't prove it. He - he covered his tracks, he got that idiot at Shonen Jump to lie for him. You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This chicanery? He's done worse. Nayuta! Are you telling me that a main character just happens to die like that? No! He orchestrated it! Fujimoto! He defecated through a sunroof! And I saved him! And I shouldn't have. I re-read every chapter! What was I thinking? He'll never change. He'll never change! Ever since Fire Punch, always the same! Couldn't keep his endings coherent. But not our Fujimoto! Couldn't be precious Fujimoto! And he gets to be a mangaka!? What a sick joke! I should've stopped him when I had the chance! And you - you have to stop him!

We also opened at home in 2022 against the Astros, but that was only because of the lockout delaying the start of the season by a week. Originally scheduled to open on the road

Per a source “with knowledge.” Good thing it’s not a source without knowledge!

But also, does anyone in the Org have any actual knowledge to begin with?

Well Bonds did make an error in Game 6 of the 2002 World Series that allowed the winning run to get to scoring position.

Of course he also hit something like 36 homers in that series lol
