Wait Powell hit a grand slam?
What’s his RBI to plate appearance ratio at now?
"I feel like we are sending Danny Haren for Mulder all over again." - Cardinal fan on the Matt Holliday trade
"But at this time of year, two plus two doesn't always add up to eight. Sometimes, it equals four." - Geoff Baker, Mariners beat writer.
27 RBIs in 107 AB
.2523 RBI/AB
Full season, ~500 AB = 126 RBIs

All 3 of those strikes show as out of the strike zone on gameday

But it didn’t look like Cust saw a single pitch in the strike zone in that at bat.
It does not matter
if the ump called the first two out there you might want to swing at the next one

Why take Cahill out?
After 84 pitches? Come on A’s, there’s no need for that.
"To tell the truth, I'm not excited to go to Cleveland, but we have to. If I ever saw myself saying I'm excited going to Cleveland, I'd punch myself in the face, because I'm lying" - Ichiro
To limit his innings.
I see no problem with it.
"I’m Joey Devine, I’m what Joba Chamberlain would be if he was good and nobody had ever heard of him."
Limiting his innings is one thing
But he was only at 84 pitches, meaning his arm probably wasn’t strained or anything. If he was at 100 I could see it but this is being overly cautious, in my view.

Eh. It's a 10-3 shellacking of the Royals, and September callups were made
There’s no really good reason to let him run out there for 2 more innings, it’s hotter than shit outside right now. Pat the kid on the back and tell him to go grab a juice box.

Drinking dairy products when you’re trying to fight off the flu is sort of like dumping half a gallon of epoxy into the oil of your car. It will gum up the works. It will make it far more difficult for your body to perform the complex physiological activities on which your health depends. Cow’s milk and dairy products should be strictly avoided by those who don’t want to get the flu or who are suffering from flu-like symptoms.

That's a hell of a link.
The bit about dairy products is the one thing he prefaced with “in my opinion”. Given all the other stuff he presented as non-opinion fact — essentially, all food is bad for you unless it’s fruits, vegetables, or whole grains — I’m inclined to treat his opinion with a grain of salt. (Oh, and salt is bad for you, too, unless it’s special salt from the Himalayas in which case it’s good.)

Kilby major league debut:
2 innings pitched 1 hit, 0 runs, 0 walks
in bay area and sick of tv blackout?
If you have directv, and if you have the MLB extra innings package, go to the MLB MIX channel on 720 (720-1 HD) to see the game. Yep, even here in Oakland/SF.

On another note, Daric Barton is continuing his torrid form. At least he is consistent.

Hey did you see my niece in bbg’s pic-post? She’s the one beaming next to Blez.
I'm here to talk about the past.

plus, it's a whole entity.
You gotta go the other way with it.
Do this.
When you get home, call AT&T, talk to whatever customer service rep they give you. Get his full name and extension however you can. Then, instead of blaming AT&T, you blame Greg Jennings!
Don’t forget ot call him several times a day, when your reception is poor, when your reception is good (they get tired of all the negativity), when you see a gaggle of baby ducks. Maybe Greg’s trapped in an office somewhere and would enjoy a report on the ducks. In all way, Greg Jennings has become AT&T to you.
