Open Game Thread: Game 105 - A's vs. Royals

Kansas City Royals at Oakland Athletics, Jul 28, 2008 7:05 PM PDT
Yes, the A's have the best run differential in the AL West. Yet the team also has the worst record over the last 10 games of any team in the AL West. The team is 2-8 with their win over the Rangers yesterday.
The bigger story over these next few days is whether or not Billy Beane will opt to trade both Justin Duchscherer and Huston Street. The games are becoming secondary with how quickly the team has fallen.
Tonight the A's send Diamond Dallas Braden to the mound with his 2-0 record and a 4.05 ERA. He takes on the Royals Zack Greinke who is sporting a 7-7 record and a 4.06 ERA. Braden is one of those guys that Beane and company have loved for a while, but who must really impress over the second half of the season is he's to have any kind of future in the A's rotation. I personally think it's unlikely he will have that much of a future in the rotation with the arms the A's have in the minor leagues, but that could easily change with a stellar performance in the second half. Whether or not Braden has it in him remains to be seen.
The lineups look like this:
LET'S GO A'S!!!!!!

Pre-game radio notes:
In his interview with Vince, Jerry Blevins claims that he grew up rooting for the A’s. Loved Canseco. Also rooted for the Niners, because there aren’t many celebrity Jerrys out there. Hopefully he’s also a Deadhead.
Blevins’ high school grad class had 39 kids in it.
Barton’s 4-for-17 in the rehab thus far with Rivercats.
Korach’s back! Claims he listened to some of yesterday’s game on the radio. Was not convincing…presumably he was actually holed up in a squalid hotel room engaging in all manner of unhealthful conduct. His voice smelt of pruno.
Korach: What’s it like when you take a foul tip to the face?
Geren: If it’s dead-center on mask it feels like your jaw goes back and rings your ears. But Kurt feels great today.
Fosse: "You can never take any club lightly, that’s for sure." (fill in any premise…they all work!)
They want to steal the land papers which is why they have tried to break in. But they had to give up after being bitten by Chhotu.

Other than Blevins
(who is a stud—ice water runs through Ichabod’s veins), I don’t like the sound of any of that. Ominous and scary and Fear & Loathing-ish. Let’s hope tonight’s game against the Royals is not a bad trip.

I think Braden's future with the A's lies in being a bullpen guy
Forgot to mention:
- While Josh Hamilton was stretching in the outfield, Milton Bradley jogged out and leaped over him, then they pretended to block/evade each other like linemen. I’m surprised Bradley didn’t injure himself in the process of either.
- Frank Francisco hit a little girl before the game – he was jogging past the field box on the way to the bullpen and gave her a high-five.

Brewers vs Cubs
Brewers score back to back solo HR to tie it up. Corey Hart doubles to bring in the go ahead run. 3-2 in the 6th

Ever since I saw that 100 yr old guy on Saturday celebrating his birthday at Wrigley and realizing he was 3 months old last time they won it all. For that old dude alone, I want to see them win the WS.

Maybe they take a test before they're signed:
Q: what do you do with a runner on first and 1 out?
A: hit to the shortstop for a 6-4-3 double play
Q: what do you do with runners in scoring position?
A: pop it up for out number three
Q: what should you strive to do each at bat?
A: strike out, strike out, strike out. consistency is the name of the game.

1) Carlos Gonzales with another hit
2) Manny Ramirez giving K-Rod the touchdown pose with a bomb even though the Angels win. Reminding K-Rod what he did last post season and what he will do to him this post season providing Boston gets some pen help

Fosse and Kuiper don't seem to have noticed that A's pitchers who...

Street and Ziegler are the two main ones for that right now.

I was stationed in Japan. Me and a bunch of other service guys were recruited to be extras in a Japanese movie. It was a bar scene with Japanese strippers. My buddy grabbed a part where he is feeling up a nude Japanese girl. Dumb ass that he was. His wife was not amused at all when the film was released.

Crosby needs to follow suit as well
I about puked when Korach defended him because he didn’t have a rehab after the DL stint and that might be why he struggles.
No Korach, he flat out is a bad player hitting and fielding and needs to be gone.

Mostly the smugness

(Cut to extreme close-up of WASPy self-satisfaction)
“Luckily, I am a physicist.”
