Yeah, this hasn't changed. Even though they're coming here, I still hate Oakland. Can anyone here name 7 guys on the A's team not named Sonny Gray? No cheating.

I hate the Athletics. I really do. I'd love a sweep, but 2/3 would be awesome. I really, really hate Oakland.

They're too mediocre for me to hate them. 11th in runs scored, 9th in ERA, 14th in fielding percentage. It's a team we need to beat.

Who doesn't love some Coco Crisp?

Oh hey there, Frobby. How are you feeling this morning?

Hasn't changed on my end! BUCK OAKLAND. BUCK THEM HARD. BUCKBUCKITYBUCKBUCKBUCK.

Odd how that OP is three years old and has stayed true, minus the names of specific players involved. Cannot stand going to Oakland.

They certainly dominate us out there no matter who's wearing the uniforms. It's quite embarrassing how bad this team plays out there.

    • Starting point has changed.  Given the fact he has approx 1/7th of his season in the books at 1.139, to OPS just .780 for the season, he'd have to drop off to under .730 the rest of the way.  That sort of drop off wouldn't be acceptable to me. I'd like him to OPS .800 the rest of the way for roughly .850 for the season.  The more they use him in a platoon role, the better I think that number might be.
    • Can I ask how you timed it vs the DVR?  Did you use a stopwatch or count click with pause/FF, or something else?
    • I can’t fathom why anyone would want a Tanner Scott return. In 10 innings, he is 0-4 with a 1.78 whip. He was maddening before, and now he’s older. But I wonder if the Red Sox would part with Justin Slaten? He’s been pretty outstanding. Yeah, only 8 innings, but we hired Yohan Ramirez, and he’s been a catastrophe in 10. Yes, I know he’s a rule 5, and the Bosox are in the East. And their pitching is pretty thin, too. But they know they aren’t going anywhere in this division, and they might think getting a good return for a Free Rule 5 guy might be worthwhile.
    • This draft unfolded weirdly.  First with the *nix guys getting taken early and then how no defensive players got taken all draft, and then a bunch of teams reaching for OTs.  I'm pretty happy with how the draft unfolded because I think we got a player that I expected to be gone by the teens or early 20s.  I don't know what we're doing with our OL but hopefully we can maybe trade up from 62 to pick someone up.
    • I have it on dvr and I timed it four times. I got 10.75, 10.80, 10.74, and 10.78.
    • This is exactly what EDC said tonight     
    • My guess is more of a safety profile than they preferred. They clearly wanted Wiggins. They ran that pick up fast. And then when you listen to the press conference, the love for the player was obvious.
