For Fun - The Heavyweight Title
After watching Landon Powell and Tommy Everidge make their debuts this season I couldn't help but wonder....
...what it would be like to see this line-up for a day:
DH - Tommy Everidge
C - Landon Powell
1B - Chris Carter
SS-
2B -
3B - Brett Wallace
RF - Jack Cust
CF -
LF - Travis Buck
...along with...
SP - Brett Anderson
RP - Joey Devine
RP - Andrew Bailey
The return of the 1999 Beer League A's? A new reality show on Bravo?

You wanna talk a heavyweight lineup (at least in terms of pounds)?
Look no further than across the Bay.
Not fat at all
Dude’s a physical specimen.
Not in the Prince Fielder way, though. In a good way.
Solace: Law says he's a fourth OFer
PaulThomas: I think Keith Law is only a fourth analyst
And what is Buck doing on this list?

I thought that at first, too
Then I looked up his weight. On the A’s site, he’s listed as 6’2", 230 (just 10 lbs less than Everidge). I’m not sure what’s going on there, but I never thought the guy was 230. Perhaps that’s why he’s in AAA.
Everidge's weight is LISTED at 244 or whatever
Fosse said he asked Everidge, and Tommy told him 275. That seems like it could even be a little bit low.

This is not supposed to be about these guys being fat (though clearly some of them are), but just about them being large dudes which is why Carter and Buck and Brett etc. are on the list. This just made me miss the days of Giambi/Jaha/Stairs/Grieve (Grieve wasn’t fat, but again he was a big dude and could hit the ball a long way).
These were the days when the A’s had personality. They were a better team after Stairs/Jaha/Grieve were gone, but they weren’t as much fun. The A’s right now not only suck they have very little personality. I’d much rather watch a team with Nick Swisher, Travis Buck, and Marco Scutaro (who we should bring back! Start the campaign now!) regardless of how many wins it produced cuz at least it would be more fun. On that note, bring back Matt Stairs! Start the campaign now! :)
this is pretty funny actually
Oh, but if I catch a line drive by a girl, that’s girl-on-girl action, the twiceness is eliminated, and it just counts once - gigglingone
does
john jaha manage, matt stairs acts as team doctor, etc?
Let's get Ryan Howard
on the team and then this post is starting to make a lot of sense. How about Sweet Lou as the manager and Rick Reuschel as the pitching coach. Work KU Football coach Mark Mangino in the mix somehow and this team might crash the charter flight plane. Go XXXXL A’s!
Also
Brett Anderson, while chubby in the face, is 215, 6’4’’, which seems quite normal to me.
Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt.
Eveland can be on this team
