Open Thread: Game 52 - A's at White Sox (cont)

The A's scratched out a 1-0 lead after a double by Holliday and a sac fly by Suzuki, but they finally got a really big hit; a 3-run homerun by Giambi. We are heading to the eighth inning; Anderson has pitched all seven so far.

Cotroneo just said that the Rangers just DFA’d Vicente Padilla for throwing at guys & exposing his teammates to the retaliatory beanballs from the other team, which they HATED, apparently. He is saying the last time he did it Wash made him apologize to the team, and when he did it again they released his ass, whoa!!!

I think having Mazzarro up

will make the others a little more competitive with each other. ie. Outman last night. If these guys know that they are going to be in the rotation for a while, good things will continue.

I might just be excited because of this series, but seriously, you got to hold onto some hope :)

let's not get too excited

of course, I AM getting excited. But keep in mind that chicago has scored a grand total of 4 more runs than the A’s so far this year (and has played one more game).

if our staff went up against our offense and threw zeroes, how excited would you be?

Do you know the way to San Jose?

Is it just me or our these guys starting to remind you of the big three.

They are feeding off each other and trying to be better than the last guy. The only difference is now all five starters have the ability to throw a CG SO. I can see these boys going on a major roll…

I hate special effects where they

speed up and slow down the action for no apparent reason other than it looks cool. Since Matrix is the movie that started that annoying trend, I assumed I’d hate it.

But recently a good friend, who understands my taste in movies, says that he thinks I’d still enjoy it for the story even in spite of the special effects. So now it’s on my list to watch some day. Not sure when I’ll get around to it, though.

Boy this is what I'd hoped the entire season would look like

2) Holliday so frightening the opponent wants to walk him
3) Giambi mashing 3-run homers, in true Oakland offense fashion.

(Im just ignoring the fact that Kennedy’s at 2nd, Crosby is at 1st, Petit is at 3rd etc).

I hope this is the start for Cunningham.

Maybe once Buck comes back they’ll DFA Raj and Keep Aaron as the 4th OF

by cityplANner on Jun 4, 2009 1:10 PM PDT reply actions  

Aaron shouldn't be the 4th OF.

He should be full time somewhere, MLB or AAA. When Buck comes back, one of them goes to AAA.

Or Holliday is traded by then.

Denorfia for 4th OF!!!!
