Fugly: Astros 3, Angels 1
Crossed the path then I followed your faceOkay, we get it: the wheels have fallen off the starting pitching, the offense is dead in the water or at best inconsistent, and Salmon has no way to get at bats in a National League park (and barely any in an AL park).
it was hard to believe
it was hard to trace
I saw you today
seems like I see you everyday
but there's something I figured out 'bout you
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh yeah
you're so ugly
I'm tellin' you straight
you're so ugly
don't make a mistake
cause you're ugly
you could bet it on the bank
say why why
why would I lie to you
why would I lie-- Violent Femmes
Phone call to Mike Scioscia: we are in contention this year. There have been experiment games where slumping Kennedy or Amezega (the latter's picture appears next to the word "hitless" in the dictionary) bat second. News flash: there is no such thing as protection. Let's find an order that can hit; Erstad in leadoff actually isn't a bad idea.
Gregg might be the next guy on a plane to Salt Lake. The descent of the Angels' pen to merely adequate is a jarring one.
We have a series with Oakland starting tomorrow. Let's hope the lads acquire some bats between now and then.

A's fan here:
Something tells me you'll be glad to see us. No more interleague play. We both get our DH back (Durazo's absence from the lineup has hurt, and it may have cooled down his hot streak). We'll see familiar faces.
Y'all have noticed, I'm sure, that our mediocre bullpen has degenerated into something truly horrible. Imagine an entire bullpen of Gregg in his current slump. That's us.
Kennedy always kills us, so the sight of our uniforms should help cure his slump. I still shudder at the thought of Guerrero, Anderson, and Guillen - back to back.
Game one is a mystery. We should have an advantage on Tuesday with Hudson, but our bullpen usually screws up worse than usual in his games and Colon looked better in his last start. You've got the advantage on Wednesday with Escobar. We've got the advantage on Thursday with Mulder.
It should be fun.
