Why do the angels continue to pitch scott shields?

Question

this guy is really bad this year. it seams like every time i watch him, he blows the lead. he blew the lead against the rays today costing the angels the best record in baseball. why don't they pitch arredondo who has like a 1.00 ERA and opponents are only batting like .185 against him.

Answer 1

It's hard to watch isn't it?...I mean i was dying.I can't say anything bad because not just anybody can pitch in the major leagues so who am i to call shots..i felt for him.

Answer 2

He's good that's why but his command tonight was WAAAY off! He hasn't been this bad this season and Mathis making the error made things that much worse. (i mean his at bats were awful today same with Figgy.. man they need to step up!)

James Shields just shut down the Angels today

Tampa Bay is kicking our butts and i'm frustrated!

Answer 3

BECAUSE THEY SUCK!!!!!!!!

GO MARINERS!!!!!!!!

Answer 4

Angels defense cost them this game.

Shields' ERA is still under 3.  He have allowed an earned run in only 3 of his last 12 games.  THe thing is that errors have reall yhurt Shields over the last few weeks.

Answer 5

What do you mean the defnse blew it for him.  That was like his fist strike in the whole dang inning and throughout the whole inning he was shaky as could be.  I thought they should have put in Arredando after oliver got the second out but then again it would have been a stretch on the bullpen if they got past the inning tied.
