Open Thread: Game 115 - A's at Texas
I don’t mind the tribute Hank Aaron has taped in anticipation, and I’m ok with the presence of 300-400 additional reporters who have flocked to Arlington this evening, though I’m rather annoyed that Bud Selig is not in attendance. That’s right, folks: Tonight, Lenny DiNardo goes for career win #7. It could get crazy.
Kevin Millwood opposes DiNardo in the rubber game of this 3-game series, and…wow, the pitchers might want to go for strikeouts because the two teams are NOT putting their best defensive team out on the field. Cust and Botts in LF? Wilkerson and Melhuse at the corners? All righty then!
Said lineups:
Buck – RF
Swisher – CF
Cust – LF
Piazza – DH
Ellis – 2B
Johnson – 1B
Scutaro – 3B
Murphy – SS
Bowen – C
Kinsler – 2B
Wilkerson – 1B
Young – SS
Sosa – DH
Byrd – CF
Cruz – RF
Botts – LF
Saltalamacchialamasccherer – C
Melhuse – 3B

Whew. Much better.
According to comments on MLB Traderumors
The Cubs claimed Shannon Stewart on Waivers, per Bruce Levin on ESPN 1000.
So we'll see if its true, and if so, if a deal can be made.
Who would we be able to get from the Cubs? Dare I pray for Pie?
Pie would be sweet. Pun intended.
So now we know why DJ is in the lineup, we
have no more outfielders.

by SwisherThresher on Aug 8, 2007 6:58 PM PDT up reply actions
He's on the 40 man roster and would
never clear waivers. I fear this is just going to be another nothing trade.
If he was claimed by the Cubs, the A's have 3
options
- Pull Shannon off Waivers
- Negotiate a trade
- Let Shannon be claimed
With Shannon, only making 1Mil, the A's won't just let him go for free.
by theblackpearl on Aug 8, 2007 7:02 PM PDT up reply actions
Actually, Pie wouldn't have to clear waivers
He'd just have to make it far enough for Oakland to claim him, then we could trade.
That means he'd have to get past Tampa Bay, Texas, Kansas City, White Sox, and Baltimore.
Yeah, still not gonna happen.
Billy Beane is racist!
Pray
Sounds doubtful to me. I'd gladly give Stewart for Pie even if we pay Stewart's salary. Heck, I'd throw in Kotsay, too.
Pie
I think the Cubs just recalled him Pagan is on the DL
I miss Wash and Art
It's not good to see them in Texas, gets me as blue as them dern uniforms to see them that way.

Cooool. I had a 15% off coupon so that helped
alleviate some financial pain. They had a tent full of shirts, caps and jackets and some of the stuff was only $5. You could have bought any of their fitted hats for $10 but they would only let a certain number of people in at a time.

- 2 HR for CHC too, total 4 HR in 126AB

Bowen HR's
He hit 2 HR's for Padres this year not Cubs--They (the Cubs) had no clue what they had he was just trade bait for them.
I think they knew what they had
looking at his stats, they don't look too good.
He's your standard backup catcher.
I'd rather have Jeremey Brown, especially with a "defense minded" primary catcher. Brown can play 3B as well, anyways.
Oh those who only look at stats
You need to look at underlying issues before you condem someone. That's ok though we can choose to disagree but I'll take Bowen anyday
I don't think Bowen is any big prize but I
definitely prefer him over Brown. I've seen Brown play several times and I don't think he has that much upside. He hesitantly signed my Moneyball copy.

There's more than one hotel
right across the street. :)
and "Denny's" sometimes. It was closed for
a while last year.

You can't drink beer at Denny's...
can you?
I don't see why not.
Nope but the hotel has a bar that is open late.
Hell our tailgate wrapped up around 1:00 a.m. if I remember correctly. It's like security doesn't give a shit. In Oakland they kill the lights while Celebration is still playing.

A series win for our A's which followed a
split. Things are beginning to be tolerable again.
