Open Thread: Spring Training Game 21 - A's vs. Rangers
As Cactus League action winds down for the A's, Oakland takes on the Texas Rangers, whom the A's beat 9-7 in an Arlingtonesque game two days ago. Justin Duchscherer gets the start for Oakland - thank you to whomever posts the lineups.

According to the A's Press Pass
Besides Duke the only other pitcher assigned to pitch today is Casilla. The press pass is never 100% right but it usually is quite accurate. It even had Chad Gaudin set to pitch yesterday.

I think the link off the gameday page is broken, and so this is a hack.

Barton's power numbers...
from the end of last season and this spring give some hope that he might be finding that pop(the one thing critics say is lacking) that could make him one of the best hitters in the game in a couple years.

I felt good about them coming back against the Rangers
but it still fosters hope for a really great regular season and I hate setting myself up for that.

E6, wild pitch, groundout, wild pitch.
