Open Thread: Game 8 - A's at Blue Jays
by Nico on Apr 8, 2008 4:00 PM PDT
Email
PrintChad Gaudin has two things going for him: A healthy lat and a passport. So unlike 2/5 of the A's rotation, he's actually good to go. Rich Harden, who gets scratched more often than a vinyl record (young fans should look up what a vinyl record is), has been pushed back to Saturday, and so Gaudin will make his season debut tonight against hard-throwing righty A.J. Burnett. The A's will start the nine players who are healthy and have been allowed into Canada, specifically:
Buck - RF
Ellis - 2B
Barton - 1B
M. Sweeney - DH
Cust - LF
Crosby - SS
Hannahan - 3B
Suzuki - C
R. Sweeney - CF
For the Blue Jays:
Eckstein - SS
Stairs - LF
Rios - RF
V. Wells - CF
Big Hurt - DH
Overbay - 1B
Hill - 2B
Marco...SCUTARO!!! - 3B
Zaun - C

2008 Oakland Athletics...more than meets the eye!
by OptimistPrime on Apr 8, 2008 5:02 PM PDT up reply actions
I think this is the best lineup we have right now
It should be the basic format upon which all game to game variations are made
Big Papi Eats Big Boogers
apparently,
the A's scoring is too much for my firefox to handle, because it definitely crashed right before the run...
"The hard... is what makes it great."
Wow...a REAL RBI!
Not a passed ball scoring a run, not an error, not a walk, but someone on the A's HIT THE BALL with 2 out and drove in a run.
I'm stunned.
Um...c'mon pitching!
So, bring on Bonds! Or, not... then, bring back Langerhans!! -One won lost one
I thought Sweeney hit it out too
I'll take the RBI double though!
I like Cindi. A. She never pretends to know more than she does. B. She has unbridled enthusiasm for her "Hotties," and isn't afraid to show it. -IM4Oakgal

or "the pesky Eckstein"? I've heard about them both.

Hey at least at 81.00 era he will get better as the season goes on
by asfaninpismobeach on Apr 8, 2008 4:25 PM PDT reply actions
What did we expect?
Gaudin clearly wasn't going to be ready to start, so if he makes it 3 innings I'll be surprised. I was afraid that this would happen. Hopefully he can settle it down and get out with only these 3 runs, because burning the bullpen and hoping Greg Smith can go 7 is not a good strategy.
Might as well Jump! - Van Halen
4-5 innings for DiNardo today should be a good tuneup for his start on Saturday
The A's colors are green and gold.
Sort of forgot about Lenny
Hopefully we just put up a 10 spot so we don't have to worry about it.
Might as well Jump! - Van Halen
I thought Cust was going to rob Vernon of that Hr. I also thought Rich was going to stay healthy. I'm 0-2
There are few things less likely than Harden being healthy,
but a Cust web-gem might be one of them.

i hate how gameday audio is very very slow.
definitely had it spoiled.
but whooooo!!
"The hard... is what makes it great."
MLB.TV Mosaic's box score updates itself before the video shows it.
I saw Sweeney's average jump to .500 before I saw the hit.
But whooooo!
OMG! A HIT!
and a useful one at that! Go Buck!

Straight away, looked like
MaE gets knocked in!
Hit it perfectly to the long gap and the ball stalled at the fence.
Yeah, and it always exists against my fantasy starters, too
This is better than a crappy Yahoo t-shirt, anyway.
Do you get a Yahoo t-shirt?

"The hard... is what makes it great."
Helloooooooooo offense!!!

This makes sense:
We used to have great pitching and bad hitting, now Duke and Harden got hurt, so we'll have great hitting and bad pitching.
The A's colors are green and gold.
That's not such a bad situation
if Gio and Greg Smith and the Stockton Studs are the real deal.

Baseball is not necessarily an obsessive-compulsive disorder, like washing your hands 100 times a day, but it's beginning to seem that way. We're reaching the point where you can be a truly dedicated, state-of-the-art fan or you can have a life. Take your pick. ~Thomas Boswell, Washington Post, 13 April 1990
