The World Famous Linda’s Doll Hut in Anaheim is noted mostly for beginnings. Its where SLF and I met while her band was playing. (A better trailer for the doll hut) The Marte era begins. I really think this will be the last watchable A’s baseball for a while. 6 down to houston, 2 up ...

The A’s open a three-city, ten-game West Coast road trip with four in T-Mobile Park. It’s a great chance to remind the Mariners that they haven’t seen postseason play since 2001 and should make it 20 straight seasons this year.

We may be taking on water. Everyone may be more focused on a city council meeting tomorrow. I may not be able to watch. But damnit we will have a series thread. Ohtani-Irvin Suarez-Kaprielian Camelot sure fell apart, didn't it? -Steve McCatty

The A’s head into the ASB with a 52-40 record which honestly isn’t too different from their usual records during contending years at this point in time. So why do things feel more dire? I would say a lot has to do with the overall negativity around the stadium issue/relocation. jeffro with a positive spin ...

Oakland heads to the shed for the last series before the break. Irvin vs. Jordan Lyles, Fri 5:05 Kaprielian vs. Foltynewicz, Sat 1:05 Bassitt vs. Kolby Allard, Sun 11:35 We miss Kyle Gibson again, but Allard is also having a good year, and Foltynewicz has had two good starts against us.
