Open Thread: Game 35 - A's at Rangers (5) - CT Thread
We go to the 12th! Rangers all over the bases, A's bullpen doing their best Houdini impressions. After a 1, 2, 3 inning by Breslow in the 11th, the A's offense (who has done a lot of nothing) tries to score ONE run.
Update: A's lose in the 12th.

Sadly
You could make an arguement that today’s starting lineup for the A’s was the worst we have EVER put out on the field. Perhaps the worst in MLB history, in terms of experience and numbers. To my calculations, 7 or 8 of the starters were in the minors at some point last year or this year. Can anyone think of a worse lineup? Even the 2008 Giants were more threatening i’d argue
The A's of previous years have put out Major League worthy players and have floundered in the division
This year A’s are made of tons of meh and are competing with first? Certainly far from the worst in the MLB today.
