Let's get more recent numbers, shall we?  Since May against LHP Mateo has a .629 OPS.  Do you call that hitting lefties well?

Good point

Ugh Gibson. Gotta take 2/3 here and he represents the best chance for the A’s to get a win. 
 

Overall lineup is decent though 

[Ripken]

Time for some bats to wake up.

McCann, McKenna and Mateo in the 6-9 spots?  Sure,  give Oakland pitchers the entire inning off.  Yuck.

McCann has been better lately but overall I agree.

Mateo is going to break out...I can feel it!

By “better”, do you mean better than pretty much everyone else on the roster over the last month?

.972 OPS since the ASB.  Doesn't deserved to be lumped with the other 2.  McKenna can run into a good game also.

As for Mateo...um...he's fast.

[Since1984]

Hope Mateo has another streak coming! Gunnar is starting to heat up again and Hays is hopefully due for a rebound! 

[OriolesMagic83]

I'm looking for Westburg to have a big game.

I can't tell...it might just be a poop pain.
