I literally can’t win.
How the hell does the Angels bullpen blow a 5-1 lead at home to Baltimore? Joe Saunders cruised through six and left up 5-1, and still didn’t get the win. On Sunday, I had three starters going - they received a combined ONE RUN of support between them. I used to lead my league in wins, now I’m middle of the pack and falling.
To make matters worse, I made a mistake that will probably cost me any chance of moving out of fifth place. Last week I inserted Jeff Baker into my lineup for Mike Aviles. Usually my lineup changes only work out miserably. But, and Woody Allen would be proud, this one worked out horribly. Baker was 1-for-23 at the plate last week, while Mantle, I mean Aviles, went 15-for-26, including a 4-for-4, HR, 3 RBI game on Sunday before I could get him back in my lineup. On Monday night? Aviles was a predictable 1-for-4 with nothing.
I should only be so lucky, to be miserable.
