The difference between the CWS and A’s is that the CWS play in a weak division. They get 4 guys that plug holes and could be around .500 in that division next year. At the end of the day this is the same package that go thrown around all offseason for Cease. So it was ok for Cease, but not Crochet who has .5 years of control more, and we’d have him for 3 playoffs. But I guess the milkman Cow gimmick matters that much to people. It’s cool and all, but I’d take a lefty SP for 3 playoffs. -

Vespi is definitely ahead of Krook, Gonzalez and McGough, but Krook may just have gotten called up over the other two because he was already on the 40. They may want to keep McGough and Gonzalez in the minors this year so they don’t burn an option year on them if possible. And both probably benefit from more AAA reps anyway, Gonzalez was in international leagues for a couple years and hasn’t performed like this at AAA before and it’s McGough’s first experience at AAA. The most interesting thing for lefties next year is if they hang onto Akin’s last option this year. Then next year they could choose to option Akin and hang onto Vespi once he’s out of options. But I think Akin is easily the most talented of this group and his numbers overall are good, he’s just often frustrating. -

Sorry but have to point out that wasn’t true last year. We won the first game 9-4 and all of the runs were scored before the 6th inning. And the 3rd game we won on Sunday was 12-1 and was literally over after the 3rd or 4th inning and Bradish threw a gem. The only game that was close was the 2nd game that we won in extra innings. I mean I would certainly take this outcome again…. -

Can't remember where I read it, but I thought we offered the White Sox the same package for Cease that we offered to the Brewers for Burnes. But no, that's a little too steep a price for one pitcher. Smells a lot like the Bedard trade in reverse. -
I try to catch at least one game in every series the Os play in Oakland. I will miss this year. I live much closer to Sacramento (on the Sierra Nevada foothills side) so those games will be much easier to get to (added bonus is I don't have to drive to Oakland or the Bay Area, in general). I will not miss the Coliseum.
