Open Game Thread: Game 23 - A's vs. Mariners

The A's kick off an important road trip today against Seattle at 7:10 p.m., fresh off Thursday's invigorating rout of the Twins in Frank Thomas' A's debut redux.
I began this season thinking I'd use game thread previews to discuss a human-interest element involving the opposing team's SP, and tonight game grants us yet another interesting human, right up there with the religiously devout reformed porn addict % and the most sabermetrically-influenced player in baseball , both of whom we've profiled in this space on previous Fridays.
Today the Mariners send out Miguel Batista, who writes poetry and novels in his spare time , including this one about about a serial killer (excerpt of Miguel's writing included).
Meanwhile, the A's counter with Dana Eveland, one of AL's leading pitchers thus far with a 1.90 ERA and 1.18 WHIP in his four starts. Although he hasn't written any crime novels I am told that he has read several books.
% = Byrd's "problem" inspired, IMO, the three best consecutive QOTMs in AN history by Nico, FSU and Monkeyball within the first 20 comments.
Tonight's lineup hasn't been posted yet but will likely include Cust in left field and Big Hurt DHing, with Barton and Hannahan back in at their customary hot corners against a right-handed pitcher.
The A's are 14-9. They can split their next four games and still be on a 96-win pace with exactly one-sixth of the season in the books. If they could somehow keep that pace going for the remainder of the year they'd be division champs.
Let's go Oakland!

Mariners need Batista to go deep into tonight's game
The last two nights vs. Baltimore, the Mariners bullpen has been asked to throw 133 pitches. Sean Green and Brandon Morrow have each worked both nights.
Meanwhile, the A’s bullpen is well rested, having thrown 70 pitches total the last two games.
Neither Bedard nor Duchscherer figures to last long tomorrow. If either starter is knocked out early tonight it could have a fairly significant carryover into tomorrow…and that’s particularly true if it’s the A’s KO’ing Batista early.

Unfortunately, the Angels are on the same pace as the A’s are. Is it too soon to mention tiebreakers?

At the beginning of the month, I was starting to think
about four-way tie-breakers and how that would work. But the Rangers appear to be in a bit of a slump completely suck.

Four way is pretty easy actually
assuming you’re playing for one spot.
Toss coins to determine 1-4 seeds, then play 2 rounds of single elimination.
Where things really get hairy is when there are cross-divisional ties of more than 2 teams involving the wild card.

Brown? Why is Cust playing over Denorfia or Davis for that matter?
Why people continue to ride for Jack Cust on this site is baffling. I guess if he gets a hit tonight that will guarantee him playing time for another week, God help us all if he actually hits a home run.
by sactownbull on Apr 25, 2008 6:37 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
My concern is that with OF defense so important at Safeco,
since you have Big Hurt for BBs/HRs why not get Denorfia in there instead of Cust, for defense if nothing else?

It’s only a matter of time before he costs us a game with his creative routs to the ball
by sactownbull on Apr 25, 2008 6:44 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Or Brown with one of his throws -
He never hits the cutoff man. We should combine this OF into one guy who gets a bad jump on the ball, then is slow trying to get to it, then picks the ball up and hurls it to no one in particular.

Though you could argue that hitting a cutoff man
is within anyone’s capacity, while being fast and agile are not. Which is just to say that Cust will always suck in the OF and it’s not his fault, but Brown should be better than he is.

Not his fault? lol
Who’s fault is it? I guess you could blame his dad since they say he’s the one that focused Jack on hitting as the cost other aspects of the game. But as someone who’s played outfield beyond high school, I can guarantee you multiple coaches have sat him down and told him how important it is that he work on his defense. There’s just no excuse to have played pro ball this long and not be able to consistently take your first step back or stop running with your glove up. These are things I don’t see from 16 year old girls I coach. I agree with you Brown should be a better outfielder than he is. But Cust can’t be excused for his little league fundamentals.

I don't have a problem with Brown in there right now,
because I think he’s swinging a hot enough bat – especially in terms of RBI production – that it makes sense to get him in there. Although his defense has been pretty disappointing; very unfundamental. He and Cust mean Sweeney has to cover a lot of ground – oh wait, he gets terrible jumps on balls. Hope it’s a ballpark with small dimensions. Aw, crap.

Favorite A's moment
One of my favorite A’s moments was when Big Hurt was up at bat against the Mariners a couple of years ago, with Joel Pinero on the mound. Pinero fell behind 2-0, and the Mariners commentator on MLB.TV said something along the lines of, “If Pinero’s thinking about throwing Thomas a fastball here, he’d better keep it down.” He didn’t keep it down.
