that is it. Oakland has got to get his pitch count high as early as possible if they expect to win this evening.

That and have Straily pitch his best game thus far this season.

I see it the exact same way. Gray / Perez is the game I am REALLY excited for on Wednesday. Hopefully it will be ESPN's game, havent checked.

A's rarely get over on staff Aces, so don't like chances tomorrow.

And thank you for the invite. Trying like heck to build our own board. But like to stop here and chat with yall.

Great team board here.

:suds:

Oakland has owned Darvish in the past. But, I think this is a different Darvish this year

Should be interesting to see tonight. Straily is a good pitcher, but he's not an ace. The Rangers should be able to score a few runs on him, but all the Rangers get for Darvish is 0 runs everytime

As an A's expert that you claim to be, will it be a few runs or 0. Little confusing for an expert.:laugh3:

I've heard there's a chance that Matt pitches against SEA this weekend, but I assume he will just take Martinez' spot in the rotation. That would be Monday, I think. That means within a week we will get Beltre and Matt back!

Maybe Ross took the lack of run support bugaboo hit last night for Yu. :)

His walks have been down considerably so far

I hope he keeps it up after Beltre comes back. With him hitting well that's a damn good 1-7, assuming Leonys would be in the 7 spot.

Has anyone else seen this video? In the Blues-Blackhawks playoff game, there was an extremely dirty hit in the boards, which knocked out the st louis player. Well, the players were mic'd. Listen to the chicago player taunt him when he's trying to come back to his senses

What is Wilson's definition of "enough". Because from what I can see he should be the DH. Now I will not have a problem with Mitch DHing once in a while but I do not want to see and hardcore lefty-right split. KK should still see some right handers as well.
