Open Thread: Game 161 - A's vs. Angels

Los Angeles Angels at Oakland Athletics, Oct 3, 2009 1:05 PM PDT


To the surprise of many fans, Scott Kazmir reveals that the Dibs actually ended up under Joe Saunders' cap.

by Steve Nesius - AP

To the surprise of many fans, Scott Kazmir reveals that the Dibs actually ended up under Joe Saunders' cap.

This game doesn't have quite the drama of Game 161 5 years ago, when the A's hopes for catching the Angels in the season's final weekend banged off the wall Erstad vs. Rincon style and Oakland had to watch the Angels celebrate the end of the Oakland "regular season dynasty."

7 or the 8 playoff teams are confirmed, and everyone else is either playing out the string, setting up their playoff rotation, fighting for best record, or in the Dodgers' case seeing if they can almost historically choke away the division they led by 6 with 7 to play -- but still limp into the playoffs as the wild card.

Dana Eveland. What can be said that hasn't already be said? The guy has a WHIP of 2.24 and there's just no way to spin that. The Land of Big Mice-urizturis counter with Scott Kazmir, thought to be the likely Game 3 starter in the ALDS, making his first start against the A's since he was traded to the Angels.

thanks for that memory, Nico.

maybe there’s some stories from 1988 or 1990 you’d like to relive too.

Chris Sabo's two homer game in the 1990 series.

basically because of their long-standing relationship with USC. The also have played Stanford every year for about twenty years or so. Washington’s more recent.

they won't do it.

They’re part of the Big East for basketball. Their football program doesn’t need it, though. It makes no financial sense for them to join a conference.

I thought so too.

Then they hired Bob Davies. Then they fired him and replaced him with Ty Willingham. Then they fired him and replaced him with Charlie Weis.

Charlie Weis seemed like a good idea

I think ND should find a good coach and not worry so much about a “name” guy. I know that the coach KU hired had been nothing but an assistant and he’s done a great job.

by sirbed on Oct 3, 2009 1:37 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Charlie was the back up plan

to Urban Meyer. Ty Willingham was the back up to George O’Leary. We haven’t even fielded our first choice coach in 8 years.

That said, any of us would kill for Gruden. Gruden, I think, provides everything the Irish need.

is that Geren and co. actually have faith in the bullpen (however many guys) getting through the game. The starters, however, don’t deserve that kind of faith.

I was just re-reading up on Meloan,

and it sounds like he could be a great under-the-radar steal, a la Wuertz. Sickels consistently says, over 4 years, that while Meloan may not hold up as a starter he has the tools to be an excellent reliever (“maybe a closer”) and so far with the A’s that has appeared to be the case.

Behind Bailey, Devine, Wuertz, and Ziggy, Meloan could potentially give the A’s an awfully deep 5 from the right side.

from today's Drumbeat:

Travis Buck missed yesterday, and he’s out today, with post-concussion syndrome. Buck missed a large chunk of last year after running headfirst into the wall in Sacramento, and after hitting his head making his catch a month ago at Sacramento, he’s been having headaches again. Yesterday, though, was the first time he’s been dizzy, which pretty much precludes playing big-league baseball.

henceforth, i never ever, never ever want to see Eveland, Casilla, Crosby, Nomar, EGon, in an A’s uniform. Oh yeah, no more AK29 at 3B.

As for the real BART, no quotation marks.

I would say that it can be a fun and sexy place if you’re a couple and already in love, and it’s late and you’re coming home from somewhere fun and the car is mostly empty. Whether you’re feeling frisky, or just sleepy and affectionate, it’s sweet to BART together.

But meet someone or get hit on by a stranger? Eeew, no.

That reminds me, the musical Producers closes this weekend. I was going to go back and see it again.

Gardenhire should have the bullpen ready in the 7th

As well as Blackburn has pitched, he had a long time in the dugout in the bottom of the 6th and he’s pitching on 3-days rest.

I like seeing Rajai hit here

But since he’s hitting .305 I’ve half a mind to put him on the bench to preserve his +.300 average. .300 for the A’s is like .400 for a player on another team.

But like Ted Williams, he comes through anyway!
