Let's fucking score some runs.

The kings remain missing, so they're playing with Eric Chavez Bobbleheads. "Chavvy does have six Gold Gloves," Brown explained. "That's good enough to be king."

What I don't understand is that if

Meyer ruins a career by saying “No really I’m fine” and then Duke goes on the DL after saying “No I can keep pitching”...Why do the A’s continue to allow guys to throw after they feel so much discomfort you can see it in their body language? This is hard to see coming?

Annoying, to be sure.

I blame the manager.

He should take the option away from the player. Eveland shouldn’t have pitched the 2nd.

by WaddellCanseco on Apr 30, 2008 8:08 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

yeah exactly

it should be enough to call the training staff out…once you do these guys need to be able to trust them. it’s too much to ask them to call the trainers out AND then beg their way out. and it usually leads to just getting whacked around and losing the game anyways. a competitive disadvantage, and worse injuries due to overcompensation. It’s just all around making me wanna pull my hair out.

Jeremy was safe. He jumped over the tag.

I'm sorry. You were so looking forward to it. I thought I bombed my interview but they are

interested enough to reassess their travel requirements to accommodate my being a single mommy. Amazing. Interview was 30 mins and I was on Cocoa Beach by 10 AM.

I never made it to the beach but I did have an awesome dinner

at “Columbia” restaurant. It’s unbelievable food and atmosphere. Where might you be moving in Florida?

Injury?

What is the injury talk with Eveland all about? I missed the first couple innings.

Eveland rocks! Eveland rocks! Somewhere Drew Carey just smiled.

by miggyk2 on Apr 30, 2008 8:10 PM PDT   0 recs

he just popped something on his last warmup pitch

called the training staff out and has been laboring and wild.

not that he’s not prone to laboring and being wild, it just seems unnecessary.

Jeremy was safe. He jumped over the tag.

That's pretty typical I think

Definitely looks like something is wrong. He is probably compensating

for something that will cause a more severe injury later- A’s baseball.

Looked good that inning but he is throwing a lot of curve balls, which I am fine with cuz his curve is nasty!

smith's track record doesn't indicate anything like he's pitching now.

eveland has been the better prospect.

but beane is great at making the deal look like that , but seeing things others don’t of course.

Jeremy was safe. He jumped over the tag.

of Smith but I haven’t been here much this year.
