I don’t expect the handful of fans who will show up at the next three games at the Coliseum will see many runs scored. The Marlins are #27 in team OPS (.665) with the A’s #29 (.627). The Marlins come to town with a 9-21 record since the All-Star Break and this impressive streak of ...

Bsssit was being gritty in Philadelphia so I and I assume all of you were paying more attention to that. Anyway three games with seattle. They are in a playoff position I think. I don’t think they would be if it weren’t 2022 or 2020. Ivin, Kaprielian, a “sears” Gonzalez, Gilbert, and castillo I think ...

The new manager isn’t wearing Green and Gold, he’ll be in the Rangers’ red, white and blue after the firing of Chris Woodward today. When the team spends $500M on the middle infield and is 23 games out in mid-August, somebody’s gonna go. I don't know what you can say about Chris Woodward's tenure as ...

Shooty guesting in the TV booth this series as Dallas continues to do the new dad thing. So it feels like a good series for the radio. Though now that I’ve told Comcast to fuck off the delay is 20 seconds worse with YouTube TV. Fans of 18 US Code § 2071 hollah! "Kraut will ...

A delightfully frenzied Deadline Day concludes with the A’s on the sidelines, making only one minor deal as they dispatch the forgettable Austin Allen to St. Louis for a 21-year-old low-A Venezuelan RHP, Carlos Guarate. We move now to the extended denouement of the A’s 2022 season, first featuring a series in Orange County which ...
