DLD: the Daily Injury Dump, May 17, 2005
It's called the DLD, but it feels more like the "Daily Injury Dump." From today's SFGate:
"Outfielder Milton Bradley "could well be back at square one," Macha said, after Bradley aggravated his oblique muscle strain Saturday. Designated hitter Frank Thomas (quadriceps) might rejoin the lineup tonight, and Macha also hopes reliever Joe Kennedy (biceps) will be available tonight.
None of Oakland's other ailing pitchers is close to returning, from starters Rich Harden (back) and Esteban Loaiza (back) to relievers Justin Duchscherer (elbow) and Jay Witasick (ankle). The A's hope Loaiza can pitch in a simulated game Friday and Harden can throw a bullpen session Monday. "
http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/05/17/SPG0IISC9K1.DTL
Zack Greinke is expected to throw batting practice:
"Right-hander Zack Greinke is scheduled to throw live batting practice Thursday for the first time since returning from an extended absence to deal with psychological issues.
Greinke got the go-ahead after a 62-pitch workout Monday in Surprise.
A revised workout plan calls for Greinke to throw 30 pitches Thursday to hitters, then have a regular bullpen workout Saturday before pitching two innings Monday in what club officials term a "controlled atmosphere."

Nick Swisher and Joe Blanton:
But in four at-bats at Yankee Stadium the next day, Swisher only got one hit.
Unfortunately, Chastity wasn't working at 40/40 the next night, where owner Jay-Z and galpal Beyoncé partied with Derek Jeter, Johnny Damon and outfielder Bubba Crosby to celebrate the birthday of Damon's wife, Michelle. Cristal and apple martinis were served, with some members of the group staying till 4 a.m. Next day, Crosby got his first strikeout all week, going 1 for 3, and Damon and Jeter both went 1 for 4 in Sunday's stinker, when the Bombers lost to the A's 5 to 1.

Frankie displaces Melhuse?
Saw Melhuse's post-game interview, he said he's happier now he knows he's getting his 4 at bats almost everyday, instead of every 7-plus days.
The guy just wants to play. And rake!

Swish is a monster
OPS Leaders - Major League
- Pujols 1.266
- Giambi 1.134
- Thome 1.128
- Hafner 1.095
That's #5 for around 200 players who qualify with enough at-bats. Wow.

More stat for thought

#180 Sexson 0.594
Kendall?
#72 0.703

some more stats
beltre, 3b, 48hr in 2004, $13m, .582 OPS
sexson, 1b, 45hr in 2003, $13m, .594 OPS
that's no excuse for the kendall trade or for kendall's performance, but just be glad you're not a mariners fan.

A's up 2 on the giants
http://www.glenndickey.com/_gd.php?view_one=yes&which=371
"The A's and the Giants have split six of their nine yearly inter-league series. The A's took last year's, 4-2, to take a 26-24 overall lead. This year should be another tight one. The teams have virtually identical records and both have key components out, outfielder Moises Alou for the Giants, starting pitcher Rich Harden for the A's."
Just an FYI, in case anyone was wondering where we stand.

Does Neyer know something we don't
Rob Neyer: (1:37 PM ET ) Probably, though some hitter (Nick Markakis? Daric Barton?) might make a summer push. And I'd throw Francisco Liriano into the mix, too.
