FREE KRAUT!

It�s Patterson + Cameron

  1. Never question TDF when he�s been reading the spoor trail
  2. Who gets dropped from the 40-man? Herrera? Gray? I guess Crosby or Chavez would be too much to hope for?

Slusser sez that the extra spot on the 40-man will come from Duke going from the 15-day DL to the 60-day DL. — salb918

Game postponed, Zodiac killer (maybe) revealed. Obviously not a coincidence. – 74mk

    I, for one, would like to welcome our AAAA overlords

      Apparently it was a false alarm, they restarted the game.

      After their 8-1 lead turns into 8-3 in the ninth inning, with two outs already, the Yanks bring in Rivera(!) to close the game and he gives up a three run HR to Granderson. It’s now 8-6. Rivera gets the out, game over.

    And someday, grove-hoppe-r, you will understand.

    Kirk or Crowe?

    City toy?

    It’s very surprising to see Patterson actually playing. I was expecting to see Hannahan and Croz every day. At least now, the A’s can find out if Patterson actually can hit at the ML level (we KNOW he can’t field).

    Oh, great:

    Jason Giambi is the latest member of the injury ward; he’s out tonight with strained hamstrings (he’s considered day-to-day and he can pinch hit).

    So Eric Chavez, several days away from being able to play third because of an elbow strain, is at first base.

  7. xbhaskarx Apr 29,2009 4:05 pm

    The lineup: Ryan Sweeney CF, Orlando Cabrera SS, Jack Cust DH, Matt Holliday LF, Eric Chavez 1B, Kurt Suzuki C, Travis Buck RF, Bobby Crosby 3B, Eric Patterson 2B.

    Uhh.. at least Cust is batting third.

    With Outman pitching tonight, I think I’ll watch this guy and just follow the A’s on Gameday.

      FK got outed on **, some new folks arrived via bizarre Google searches, no A’s were injured today, Grein-K 2R 6K so far.

    Whoa, check out the site traffic graph…

    Why do some KRAUThors have blue names?

    It’s a vocabulary thing, isn’t it?

    “delayed-rain”

    Email from iamawesomer:

    Unfortunately as I’m now a baseball ops intern with the A’s I can’t be a member of your guys’ site, confidentiality and all that good stuff. You will however have a regular reader/lurker though ;)

    I hate rain delays.

  13. xbhaskarx Apr 29,2009 5:40 pm

    Dashboard: Why does FK have page views for “04-30” already? Are we not on Pacific time?

  14. mikeA Apr 29,2009 6:12 pm

    game postponed.

  15. Razr Apr 29,2009 6:17 pm

    Anybody around?

    SOBs

  16. Razr Apr 29,2009 6:22 pm

    oooh oooh pick me pick me (for krauthorage that is)

    Yanks – Tigers game: Comerica Park is being evacuated right now?

  18. xbhaskarx Apr 29,2009 7:04 pm

    74mk’s link: based on the internet research I did after watching “Zodiac” I think the movie got it right.
    I suspect this will be just another hoax.

  19. Poppy Apr 29,2009 7:21 pm

    Okay, FK is now officially too f’n busy for me to catch up on quickly between school and work. Somebody give me a quick-n-dirty summary of the day’s activity.

    Hey guys, not sure where exactly I can make my introduction but I guess here’s as good as any. Anyways, just wanna say thanks for the invite and I’ll try to contribute as best as I can. Although I do have an issue with clowns…stemming from a horrific incident that happened during my fifth birthday party. So clown porn might be a bit much to handle at first..

    Anyways, just wanted to say hi!

    This is lovely. I just laughed more reading this thread than I have at ** all month. The last two weeks I have been looking for xbx comments in the game wraps – and that has really been about it.

    I was scairt you all were just in digital oblivion.

    I find it appropriate to leave my strangelove moniker in that other spot… although FK in a mine shaft would be dandy.

  23. nevermoor Apr 29,2009 10:48 pm

    By the way… ** eat your heart out.
