Buzz is one jinx attempting mofo

Nice bullpen work tonight. Needed that one.

Grinded that mofo out. Great night, BP. Now somekne pitch deep into a game for criminy sake.

Had to have that. Martinez on the mound tomorrow so probably another loss

A's take the lead With a 4 run 9th

A's with the comeback. Be nice if they could hang on and win.

Have a little faith man. We're facing a 3-7 pitcher with a 5+ ERA. Vegas has us favored.

Time to go troll their thread

Maybe not tonight. A couple of those guys were pretty cool today.

Yeah I won't really troll. Only read.

Lohse starting tomorrow

Its gonna be a long tough 2nd half

Hoping we can get some pieces back and keep a healthy distance, nice win tonight and I hope Cole is okay

F'n A's.

Lohse starting tomorrow

I've been waiting for that.

Aside from 1 GS, he has been serviceable and the best part is... only 14 BB in 10 GS!

With all the teams looking for SP, I'm guessing teams have been calling asking about him and this is the point of decision time.

Chi Chi down.

Now Martinez returned to minors.

Neither can return for 10 days, is that right?

Unbelievable Oakland.

We did this as well but still didn't get a hat

Wow. Sorry to hear it. I actually like last year's hats better.

That's right.

They can come up earlier as a replacement for an injury.

True. So if their date is the 9th, that puts any possible return to be like the 19th.

That would be the 5th game back after the ASB, so we're safe, there. Worst case (Darvish isn't ready), Lohse gets the 4th game, and we have to recall Nick or Chi Chi.

I'm guessing if we don't acquire a SP during the ASB, it will be:
Hamels
Griffin
Perez
Darvish
Lohse (barring a complete meltdown)

Actually, as I'm looking at the DMN, they have it:
Perez v Hendricks
Darvish v Lester
Hamels v Arrieta

All tentative, of course. So, looks like some confidence in Darvish.

Watching the Astros game. Never seen commentators whine more about borderline pitches than their guys.

A's starting pitcher is doing a thing through 4 innings

Maybe the F'n A's can finish this time.

Feldman pulled after the trainer came out to the mound to check on him

Oakland trying to blow it again.

Prepare your anus.

Tarp on the field, any delay tonight?

Place looks like a cavern. I sure hope our new Ballpark allows more natural light than that.
