PrintWell, it's not a very clean game being played by either defense, but despite it all, the A's/Angels are locked in another of their close ones as we head to the fifth. Angels 2, A's 1.

bankston
why are we batting bankston so high in the order anyway? It’s taken gonzalez almost a month to get to the 6/7 spots
L/R alternation
Still, I’d even take Donnie Murphy over some guy who just got to the show.

This L/R thing only matters if you get the starter out of the game

C Gone looked like he hurt his nakle a touch.
Looked like it on the missed swing, them limped after running to first too.
Bring back Hammer.
Matt Watson.
Anyone remember him? He would actually look good in this lineup.
What about Barry?

Wes Bankston
I took a quick look at his stats.
He seems to be a pretty low OBP guy, some power, below average defense, supposedly. Does anyone know anything about him?
by VORP is too nerdy on Jul 2, 2008 1:58 PM PDT reply actions
The Rays org used to be pretty high on him, and he has slipped every year since
Moved around different positions, eventually landed at 1st base where he’s still a subpar defender, and he doesn’t hit for enough power to justify a corner spot. But he does have good raw power that has yet to show up in games, apparently.
Ryan Sweeney: I probably irrationally embraced him before you did.
What is the A's interest in him?
How did they acquire him and why?

Message to the pitchers.
I’ve read a few comments about how we were mailing in the game today with this line-up. I just wonder what the pitchers think of something like this? It must be frustrating mentally to know if you do anything less than a shut out you are probably going to lose. I think sending out that AAA lineup today sends a really bad sign to the pitching staff. Especially with young guys we have that may be a little shaky confidence wise.
What about Barry?
"Barry who?" Forst said, and I felt like I was in the middle of a knock-knock joke.
I'm not sure the pitchers read AN, so I don't think they care about comments about mailing it in with that lineup.
Well, except for Ziggy.
I'm sure Eveland...
has the common sense to interpret the lineup during the national anthem while it sits there in bright bold letters on the scoreboard.
What about Barry?
"Barry who?" Forst said, and I felt like I was in the middle of a knock-knock joke.
I totally agree
Not going out and trying to improve the offense sends a ver strong message to the Pitchers. The message to our young pitchers is that the organization is not really concerned about you. We care more about Daric Barton’s development than yours.
Hudler commenting on why the A's were picked to finish last in the divison by many.
He’s suggesting it’s because the A’s are a young team full of uncertainty, which is true.
But I chalk it up to idiotic sportswriters overrating the Seattle Mariners. All the projections suggested the A’s were going to be somewhat competitive in the division.
by VORP is too nerdy on Jul 2, 2008 2:08 PM PDT reply actions
Definitely
The Mariners’ 2007 season was a smokescreen for a profoundly crappy team. Add more crap like Carlos Silva? Not a recipe for success unless you’re a commentator on the East Coast who knows nothing about baseball out West.

I mean this as a serious question
No snark involved. But why would we take our Eveland when Kotchman was coming up? I know he’s hit lefties well this year, but I would’ve taken my chances with Eveland against Kotchman, then if you need to use Foulke, start with him the next inning OR if Eveland doesn’t get Kotchman, then you go to Foulke. Was it just that Eveland had hit the magic pitch count?

That is the one move worth second guessing.
I would leave Eveland in for sure. He deserved a chance to get through that inning. Pitch counts be damned.
