Open Thread: Game 5 - A's vs. Indians

527918550406_0_bg_tiny by notsellingjeans on Comment 456 comments

Justin Duchscherer makes his first regular season start since 2003 tonight as the A's begin a three-game series at home against the Indians tonight at 7:05.

Paul "I have a prescription for that" Byrd will be on the hill for the Tribe. 

Three quick facts about Paul Byrd:

1.  His teammates sometimes call him "Frasier" because of his resemblance to actor Kelsey Grammer.

2.  He's the rare MLB pitcher who still uses the old-fashioned windup.

3.  He's published an incredibly honest manuscript of his life, detailing his devout Christianity and an addiction he's struggled with. 

Let's hope the A's generate some offense tonight against Byrd.  A wise woman once said, "If you can't score a single run, pitching doesn't matter."  The A's have only managed 11 in their first four games and have put up a .183/.275/.317 line as a team.

I tried it on Wednesday

I got the tri-tip, and thought it was good, not great, but good. A different style of Q from the other barbecue stand. They have extra sauce in big vats next to the stand itself; next time I get fries somewhere else I'm going to come down to Kinder's and gaffle some sauce.

thanks! Kinders' pulled pork is more expensive

than the pulled pork sandwich already at the coliseum (unless that one went up a lot).

What's in that sandwich, anyway?

I really like the other stand's bbq...

Can I respectfully request we cool the trade talk tonight?

I rarely ask anyone to do anything, 'cause the hosers always do what they want anyway and I shoulda been minding my own god damn business, you know?

But trade talk of players who do well during the game, so early in the season, is a measure of bad fandomhood, in my truly humble opinion, please excuse me.

So much of life is faith. We are here in faith that perhaps although winning will be elusive with so many heroes gone fun and cheering is always worth it, yet trade talk throws a dart at the truly faithful who remain. Perhaps that's a way to look at it, eh?

Speaking of music

Can anyone tell me what the music is that's being used for the in-stadium montages this year?

by Englishmajor on Apr 4, 2008 5:19 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I'd like to know that, too...

I like the montages I've seen so far. Energy! Last year's montages were okay (especially liked the "Brothers In Arms" 20-win streak recap), but they had no oomph. I'm positive that's why the team lost so many games. Yeah.

Paul Byrd

Is not what he appears to be in his personal life. He is doomed to have a terrible year this year. He will be out of baseball by the end of the year. A's should have this one easy.

Paul Byrd is addicted to pornography?

So basically the only difference between me and Paul Byrd is that my windup is simpler?

Chavez Update:

Athletics third baseman Eric Chavez could be sidelined another month after undergoing his second epidural in less than five weeks.

The six-time Gold Glove winner, out since late February with pain in his lower back, was treated by Dr. Robin Dennings on Thursday after consulting with team orthopedist Dr. John Frazier earlier this week.

Chavez will need a minimum of two-to-three weeks of rehabilitation at the team’s spring training facility in Phoenix before resuming baseball activities.

When will then be now? Soon.

60 day DL for Chavvy.

That would open up a spot on the 40 man roster.

and concluded he should be pronounced dead on exactly August 12th.
