A's Grab Series Win, Take Advantage of Red Sox Poor Play

For the first time since June 11, at 32-31, the A's are once again over the .500 mark on the season. With a strong performance today to secure the series win (and 12 hits to boot!), the A's beat Buchholz and the Sox this afternoon to continue their hot play. Gio Gonzalez picked up his 9th win of the season in his six innings as he did just enough to keep the A's in the game; allowing seven hits and four runs. Spectacular bullpen work by the flame-throwing Rodriguez in the seventh (up and over 100 MPH several times), Ziegler in the eighth, and Wuertz in the ninth kept the Red Sox off the board after Gio's departure and led the A's to a big series win.
Gio allowed the first run of the game in the very first inning, and although the A's loaded the bases themselves in the bottom of the inning, they failed to score, as Kouzmanoff hit into an inning-ending double play. But Matt Watson decided the second inning was the perfect time for his first major league homerun as he blasted one to tie the game. Jack Cust followed with a moon shot of his own in the third, putting the A's up 3-1.
The Red Sox would get a run back in the fifth to tighten the score, but the A's would not relent; they led off the fifth inning with back to back singles by Suzuki and Cust to set the table. Ellis came through with the one-out RBI single to score the A's fourth run, and Rajai Davis had the game-deciding, two-out, two-run RBI single to clinch the win. The A's six runs, combined with the stellar bullpen work, would be enough, despite having two runners thrown out at the plate in the game. The A's took advantage of a less-than-sharp Red Sox team, both on defense and on the mound (Buchholz hasn't pitched in a month) to take the game.
The Angels finally lost a game today, and Texas is playing right now. The A's are doing all they can to get back in the race; but they need a little help. Tomorrow is an off-day; the A's welcome in the white-hot White Sox starting Friday night.

Interesting
And we all know Beane knows how to maximize returns in trades. I think if teams are willing to give up a decent amount, we should trade him regardless of our status as contender or not. If Beane decides that this team can make the playoffs, he should look to flip Sheets for a solid reliever under team control for a while, in addition to a decent prospect or two. If he decides we aren’t competing this year, he should instead target one decent prospect that is close to the majors and one or two high upside prospects further away.

that was my thought.
Before it seemed like he was hurt, my first thought was to sign him to an extension. He’ll probably improve (as he figures out what type of pitcher he is or isn’t) if he stays healthy.
But now, get rid of him before he’s actually worthless.

They didn't get much back for Harden and he had his best year ever in 2008 - 5.2 WAR.
I don’t want to repeat that. I’d hold out for a real prospect. If Philadelphia, I’d want at least May and Gose. If they keep Sheets till August 31, fine. If they keep him in the rotation fine and lose the division by 7 games fine.

I would be exstatic if the A's could get as much for Sheets as they did for Harden
A solid young arm like Gallagher, low level prospect with upside like Donaldson, and a couple potential big league back ups would be a huge return for a half season of Sheets. I doubt the A’s see any offers even close to that.
Well yes, I didn't word that well.
The point was that they traded Harden when they did because they were afraid he might get hurt and then be worthless. I don’t expect anyone as good as Gallagher was supposed to be. I’d be fine with May and Gose. I wouldn’t be fine with less than that.

Crisp gets thrown out. Am I not surprised?

You send him in that situation
late in the game, 2 run lead, you take big risks to score runs. this was a big risk, but it took a good throw to get him, and even in the big leagues, the throw is usually a little late and/or a little off line.

I thought the sac bunt would be better in that situation
If Penny had bunted to first, Crisp would have scored. Or if Boston throws Crisp out at the plate after the bunt, then Penny is on first and Bartons double scores him.

but the A’s would not relent

7.5 games back
Philly and Boston are both 7 back. We are still in this. I am all for trading Sheets regardless of wheter we are in it or not. Mainly due to his performance on Monday and the fact that Mazzaro is better than or very close to him right now. BA TC GG DB and VM isnt a bad rotation down the stretch

The only reason to keep Sheets
would be if Anderson isn’t able to come back this weekend.
Hate to see the team without a sixth starter in case of emergency, but if Beane can get the right prospect, Sheets should go.

My arguments yesterday that Geren wasn’t a complete idiot for removing Cust and replacing him with Rosales were attempts to make Geren appear to be less than an idiot. In retrospect, I think that’s a task that is beyond my ability to accompllish.

This reminds me of a sculpture I made of Dionysus pouring wine on his head in a kiddie pool with Apollo looking on
disapprovingly and wagging his finger. In any case, I’d want Zeus managing, Athena in the front office, Apollo working with the medical staff, and Aphrodite standing naked on a shell somewhere in the outfield.

Nike as manager. With her at the helm, we could have the 9 muses batting in our lineup and still have a winning season. She IS the goddess of victory, after all

No, you made good points.
You’re right in that there was some justification for his move (unlike some moves about a month ago). A reasonable person could say “well, Rosales is much better against lefties.”
There was logic to Geren’s thinking last night for sure. It just so happens that it was, well, incorrect (and I don’t think you really disagreed with that point).

I don't know, he's making 11mm this year
and we have a bunch of $$ coming off the books. He’s 26 years old and may theoretically fit into the A’s longterm youth movement. He is a consistent power threat.

But paying a DH 25 mil

WTF GEREN?!?!?!
Agreed
But it seems that Boston has pretty serious interest in him and it seems to me that we are in a better position to win the West than they are to win the East…. Sometimes you just need to make a big step. We don’t have a legitimate 3 & 4 hitter right now, this would change our offense a bunch.

Ross' line tonight looks alright for a guy still getting stretched out:
2 H, 2 BB, 7 K, 0 ER in 5 IP. I’d like for him to spend a big chunk of time in AAA – like a year or something – before the A’s fuck with him again, but I still think he has the upside of a good middle-of-the-rotation starter. Also Carter has hit his 22nd dinger.
You call it “alright,” but I call it pretty good.

Maybe on White Light/White Heat it was "All Right!"
But by Loaded it was just “allright,” and ten years later it was, “Where were all you assholes when it mattered? Bring me some whiskey salted with heroin.” Clearly the point I’m trying to make is that if you take Reed’s ability to feel good at any point in his life and scale it as a perfect 100, then Tyson Ross’ performance tonight was about 85-90 in comparison. If you use the third, late 70’s-Reed, scenario, you could say that Ross pitched like a “scrum-fucking junkie” and it would be still be a compliment because in my statistic everything is judged according to Lou Reed’s orgastic potency, which I admit is relative to the man’s environment, much the same way UZR is relative.

5 innings, 2 hits, 7 strikeouts and names like Troy Tulowitzki, Jay Payton, Kaz Matsui and Eric Young Jr were all in the lineup against him.
The A's are a fairly quiet team, and then there's Ben Sheets. Sheets, as a kid, must have been thrown out of every library in Baton Rouge. ~ Scott Ostler
Not surprising
He had some big control problems here, but he has the fundamentals, and did well initially; he just needs more time in AAA – for the love of me I had no idea why we kept him up here so long and just demoralized him further.
I’d be surprised if
a) he’s not up again next year OR
b) he’s good trade fodder
Well to be optimistic
maybe the A’s felt that keeping him up to work with Curt Young and learn from the other pitchers was worth the inconsistent pitching and poor results. It’s hard to define the correct way to bring a prospect along and while I was hoping he would have been sent down a lot earlier maybe the A’s had a reason for keeping him up.
He was also one of the best pitchers coming out of ST and in the first month.
