by Adam J. Morris on Jul 26, 2010 10:35 PM CDT

PrintDan Haren just got pulled from his Angels debut, after taking a line drive to either his wrist or forearm.
They came out, checked him, and pulled him. The announcers say he's going to get x-rays.

I will never applaud a player’s injury, but is this Baseball God’s way of evening things out since they didn’t give anything up for him?

I've been wondering
Is it fair game now to refer to pretty much every bone in the arm a funny bone?
I thought the funny bone was in the elbow area, but since it’s not really a scientific term I guess it just means that it’s any bone that really fucking hurts when it gets hit.
I'm going to hell because I snickered.
I couldn’t help it. Sucks, though.

That team has actually had horrible luck...
They had a bus crash in 91 that nearly killed their manager Buck Rodgers, they’ve had several players die in car crashes, including Adenhart last year. Lyman Bostock was murdered in 1978. After he gave back some salary (donated to charity) because he said he didn’t earn it. In 1986 they were one strike away from going to the World Series. A couple of guys got on, and Donnie Moore gives up a bomb that ties the game. The Angels lose that one and the next two and Boston goes to the World Series. Moore killed himself a few years later. They might be the most star crossed franchise. So don’t say they are lucky
If I had a gun to my head and had to pick one pitcher to pitch a game to save my life.... I'd pick 1999 Rick Helling.

"I don't really like pitchers." - Nelson Cruz
If Haren is hurt, this doubly hurts the Angels
They traded Saunders to get him, and as not-good as Saunders is, he’s still better than O’Sullivan, Bell, etc. As it was, the Angels traded one part of the rotation for an upgrade, and still had a black hole in the No. 5 slot. Now they’ll have TWO black holes.
Even if he is on the DL now, this doesn’t ruin the trade for LAA because it’s as much for next year and the year after that as it is for trying to catch the Rangers in 2010. Even if he’s out for the rest of the year, he’ll be ready for next year.
They don't even have O'Sullivan anymore...
I’m not sure what their rotation would look like if Haren is out for an extended amount of time.

Huh. Usually if someone gets hurt or whatever
they usually turn it around pretty quickly and say the X-rays were negative or whatever.

If they announce a contusion, I think it's a given that the X-Rays are negative.
but they could be acting fishy about it.

sucks for Haren and LAA…I know…we hate LAA…but I’d break something if that was Lee with a comebacker to the wrist
markasaxon Angels calling Haren injury a forearm contusion. He’ll be seen by Dr. Lewis Yocum Tuesday.
I thought Dr. Yocum dealt mostly with breaks since he's an orthopedic surgeon, right?
I’d assume the x-ray was either inconclusive, or there’s a fracture somewhere.

They do.
He’s very highly regarded, but he also happens to be the Angels’ team doctor.
He was the one who gave the green light to Scheppers’ shoulder before the draft. That’s why people were really surprised the Angels didn’t take him with one of their 500 picks.

Simon Noble
I was perusing the DBacks board to gauge their reactions to the Haren trade....
…and I stumbled across the greatest post ever. See:
Ah the Eastern Press, the Nabobs of Negativity for anything not centering around the New York Yankees, the Boston Red Socks or the Philadelphia Phillys.
Any chance to bag those upstarts out west who are somewhere near where the Dodgers play, who will never be forgiven for beating the entire City of New York in 2001, the World Series New York deserved to win because of 911.
Sorry I am not making light of 911, it was a horrible viscious attack on innocent people who were representatives of the United States.
But you would have had to be blind or deaf not to hear or see all the reasons given on the sports shows about why New York needed that win.
But, the Diamond Backs could be leading the Western Confrerence, having won more games than any two eastern teams put together and they will still be ignored by the Eastern Press.
Do I care what Sports Illustrated has to say, or the New York Papers who usually just gush about the best team money can buy and declare it to be America’s Team? Shoot no I don’t and I think only time will tell.
Well these three guys make a difference, who knows, Haren, who I liked, wasn’t doing anything to help.
Go get em Angels, kick the bums from the Bronx back to where they belong.
This reads like it was translated from swahili to english by a broken translator.
I wouldn’t trade Michael Main straight up for Bengie Molina, even if my alternate catcher was a pointed stick. - KLaw
Yet, he makes a good point
It dovetails nicely with the frustrating “CBS 11” thread on here from earlier. If you’re in baseball and whatever goes on doesn’t go the Yankees’ way, the media either pans it or pretends it didn’t happen, and it gets frustrating as a fan of a team that’s NotTheYankees.

Michael Kohn
per ESPN
Kohn’s 90-95 mph fastball and good slider have been nightmare-inducing for minor league hitters. In two and a half minor league seasons, he posted a 13.6 K/9 mark (10.4 K/9 at Triple-A this year). Unfortunately, the good strikeout totals are somewhat offset by sputtering command; he has a 5.5 BB/9 in 26 Triple-A games. If he can stay under control, he’ll be a useful short reliever.

for all the talk of how many games we have left against the Angels
after the upcoming weekend series, I don’t think we play them again until the last two weeks of the season. At which point, the Rangers should have wrapped this thing up.
A baseball game is simply a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings.
Correct.
Josh talked about how, on average, the Rangers would play the Angels something like once every five games in the second half. But that’s a little misleading, since it was two series tight together to start the half and then two tight together to end the season.
He wants that pitch back

It was the Kinsler "steal" of home
The pitcher threw the ball about 15ft up the 3rd base line. I’ve never seen a non Randy Johnson wild pitch that far away from the plate.
Can Gio, Cahill and Mazzaro swing the bat? If not, I'm not worried...

Be very careful not to underrate the Oakland offense.
Not only does their ballpark hold them back a ton, but they’ve gotten pretty damn unlucky.
For one example, they hit exactly as many line drives as Texas, but have a much lower BABIP (.303 when, purely by line drive rate, it should be closer to .320). And they actually hit fewer ground balls than the Rangers. Their offense, after park adjusting, isn’t too far below average, and it would probably be comfortably above average without so much bad luck.
And they’ve been playing like it lately.
that foul ground creates a lot of bad luck
which is why they’ve never had someone win the batting title
A baseball game is simply a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings.
I'm on Cloud 9
And believe it’s not our opponent anymore, but ourselves, that control the game. I just think we have such a complete team that unless our entire offense slumps at the same time, we’re good to go.

there is still more than 2 months to play
and 10 games between the 2 teams. We have a great shot, but I wouldn’t say it’s in the bag yet. The Rangers have to finish strong.
A baseball game is simply a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings.
But, but. . .
Unfortunately for the irrelevant Rangers, who have won just one playoff game in their history, and for their fans, which pound their chests like only Texans can, 2010 will end in much the same way that the last several years have ended — with the Angels on top, the Rangers sputtering toward the finish line.
Some say the Rangers falter in the heat of Texas. Others say the pitching just can’t hold up. Maybe this year it will be the financial status of the club and its owner. Whatever the case may be, the Rangers will find a way to drift back into obscurity once again.
Upon returning from my trip to Texas, a good friend asked me: "Did you find any place you’d want to live?"
Yes. I did find a place I’d like to live: Southern California. Likewise, the American League West crown won’t be moving anytime soon.
Well...
he’s right about one thing, the Rangers are pretty irrelevant. But that’s the way we like it.

I look at it this way:
For the Angels to win 90 games this season, they’d have to play out the rest of the season 38-22. That’s a .633 clip.
For the A’s to reach 90, they’d have to play out at 40-24. That’s a .625 clip.

I'm not understanding messages like these.
This is why the playoffs odds are 90%. Because 10% of the time, something astounding happens. Every single person here knows the Rangers haven’t clinched everything.
But that means those things almost never happen. It is alright to be mostly comfortable right now. Because a team in the Rangers position will almost always make the playoffs. No one needs to be reminded that “almost always” isn’t "always. LSB isn’t stupid.
Also, they still won the division in ’96, so. . .
AccuScore...
has it at nearly 96%.
The fact that there’s a 4% chance that the Rangers don’t make the playoffs is what makes baseball baseball. Shit can happen. But I’d rather be on the side of the 90-96% odds.

Dallas Braden ERA, tERA and FIP
3.77, 4.03, 3.63
ERA and FIP being pretty much inline and tERA being much higher is pretty funny to me. So, his ERA isn’t unlucky based on what he has the most control over, but it is lucky based off of his contact rates.
Hm.
OT
Every series, I glance at the average MLB wOBA, and it’s just gone down and down as the season has progressed.
It’s now at .324. That’s the lowest since 1998 (I haven’t bothered to check before ‘98). Not by much, but it’s by 2 points now (.326 in ‘05 and ’02). And it’s way below most of the last 10+ years. Average in ’99 and ’00 was .341. Average!

Jayson Werth.

Jayson Werth isn't going to make the Angels much better than they already were going to be the rest of the season.
So you’d have to expect them to be significantly better than the Rangers going forward to expect Werth to pull them back in it.
things continue to fall the Rangers way
It must be the Rangers year. If look at run differential in the standings, I don’t think the Angels or A’s can catch the Rangers as long as they don’t nose dive. I think the Rangers have +30-40 plus. A’s +5-10, Angels -20 plus. It’s just a matter of time the Angels go into a dry spell. 4-6 in their last 10 works. Same with the A’s.
