OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AROUND THE MAJORS:

Quietly, the Athletics have been creeping back towards respectability.

They have won 4 straight games (including a sweep of the Tigers), 6 out of their last 7 (including taking 3 out of 4 from the Yankees), and 9 out of their last 12.

Their defense this year has been horrendous though, which is a major reason why they are still well below .500, at 23-33.

*********************************************************

Michael Joseph Wacha continues to roll.

Last night, he pitched 7 innings of 1-run ball for his 8th W of the season.

He walked 0, struck out 5, and had an excellent strikes-to-balls ratio: O107 Pitches (76 Strikes, 31 Balls.)

His previous start against the Dodgers was interrupted by a rain-delay, and he had to warm up twice. Although he threw 5 shutout innings of no-hit ball before giving up 4 runs in the 6th, his command was lacking, and he uncharacteristically had walked 3 batters and had thrown almost 90 pitches in those first 5 innings.

*********************************************************

The previously-smoking Nationals have been stymied as of late.

They have lost 6 out of their last 7 games, 7 out of their last 9, and 8 out of their last 12.

*********************************************************

Former Oriole Jake Arrieta tallied his 5th win of the season by pitching 6 innings of 1-run ball against the Nationals.

Arrieta struck out 8, walked 0, and had an excellent strikes-to-balls ratio: O97 Pitches (63 Strikes, 34 Balls.)

For the season, Arrieta is 5-4 with a 3.04 ERA, and a 1.085 WHIP.

In his 11 starts so far, he has gone at least 6 innings 9 out of 11 times, at least 7 innings 5 out of 11 times, and at least 8 innings 1 out of 11 times.

    • There were several and I was one them. I'm  on record as saying I was one of his biggest Apologists . You should feel good about yourself as you were able to see that Means would be imploding before our very eyes( which was an opinion or a guess, which is what I did) as far as feeling bad for me? Dont I'm plenty good enough to know I wont be able to guess right every time 
    • Fantastic pickup by Elias and big kudos to O’Hearn for taking advantage of the resources to improve. He’s a great story. 
    • Given his injury history and what’s happening right now, Means may make more money as an Oriole next year than as a free agent. He may have to settle for league minimum as a FA but would do better than that in arbitration. Heck, unless he’s effective at least a little this year then the orioles might release him after the season to avoid paying more than league minimum. I hope Means recovers, very much so, but this scenario is possible imo.    ps. I guess I ignored the part where you said if Means thinks he is healthy. 
    • What I'd like to see in the next game Holliday plays, is for him to keep his eyes following through on the ball when he swings. In the last game I saw, he was yanking his head off the zone when he swung and couldn't see the bat to the ball. He was missing wildly and it wasn't even competitive. So, keep your eye on the ball! Follow all the way through! If your swing is so violent that it's yanking your head off the sight of the ball, then adjust your mechanics because you can't hit what you can't see!
    • What a great example of pedantic! Please tell us you meant to do that. I honestly can’t tell these days. 
    • Well it certainly doesn't look like he'll be winning Rookie of Year award. And if we send him down for like the tiniest amount of time, we get him for another year, right? I think if this poor hitting continues it's financial mismanagement not to send him back down. Grayson got sent down and came back way better.
