Open Game Thread: Game 78 - A's at Cleveland
Gooooooooood morning, Oakland!!! Yes, wipe the crusties from those eyes and get you some Starbucks (as opposed to your normal "adult" beverage) because we've got early morning baseball from Cleveland, Ohio. The A's look to start a streak heading in the other direction today by sending Smokin' June...

First of all, a team could probably play worse than the A's played in the top of the 6th, but it wouldn't be easy. Start with a 4-pitch leadoff walk followed by muffing a two-hopper back to the mound. Then a "wild pitch" that makes you appreciate Kendall--or most any catcher, really--topped off by...
Bradley to DL
Diary here: http://www.athleticsnation.com/story... I would say this is getting ridiculous, but it's already there.
Duchscherer to DL
Closer #2 joins Closer #1 on the DL. We'd better start losing or winning games by 5 or so. <shakes head in disbelief at the mounting body count> See OaklandA23's diary for more info: http://www.athleticsnation.com/story...

Things Have Gone A Little Haywire
At the beginning of Spring Training, I don’t think there was a lot of talk about possible injuries to Dan Johnson and Esteban Loaiza, but here we are, on one of the last days before the season is to start, and it appears we need to rebuild the team a bit. First piece of big, season-changing news...
Open Thread: Spring Training Game 28
Good morning! baseballgirl here. Due to Blez’s move to Southern California, I will be your host for the next couple of games. Together we will cheer, and hope, and wish, and cry...what?! The games still don’t count?! <throws radio> Anyway, today at 1:05, Danny Haren makes his last Spring...
Open Thread: Spring Training Game 27
Cactus League action is wrapping up and all eyes figure to be on Joe Kennedy in his final chance to prove he can get hitters out. 9.2 innings of 31 hit ball have made people understandably nervous, but Kennedy remains--if by default--the front runner to start the regular season's fifth game. You...
On the Move
I'm going to continue to try and temper my excitement about King Richard. I mean, that dude could strike out God right about now. If only he wasn't as easily broken as that UPS package in the opening of Ace Ventura. But instead of chatting about meaningless spring training Ks, I wanted to make a...
