      … and Buck still practicing 1B.

    Completely against the run of play!

    (in case anyone’s planning to watch the game later, all my comments will be intentionally ambiguous).

      You mean Ichiro ran to third on a grounder?

        More of a double and a steal, but the effect is the same.

        Taking the finesse towards dummy, and if it fails forcing E to lead into the ruff and a discard.

        Nonsense.

    When Soccer starts incorporating this


    I’ll start caring.

    Since it is only this:

    Cust out – maybe respiratory says Slusser.

      I know the Oakland air knocks down home runs, but players?

      I actually noticed last night that it looked like he was having allergy or respiratory problems.

    Ooooo. Rob Johnson.

    I hope we have another play at the plate.

      This is the only thing that can explain that.

    Why do we have Kennedy hitting #6? Even as hot as he’s been, he is terrible vs. LHP (but then so is O-Cab and look where he’s hitting)

    "There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want"
    • nevermoor May 27,2009 1:12 pm || Up

      Also, don’t look now, but SSS says Crosby is good against LHP (of course, the homer helps that a fair bit)

      "There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want"
    • mikeA May 27,2009 1:12 pm || Up

      Well, Crosby is really the only one who figures to be better in this lineup….

  10. lenscrafters May 27,2009 1:15 pm

    I cry every time Rajai Davis is in the lineup

    Hot Suzuki-on-Suzuki action!

    Cahill should just pitch against the Mariners all the time.

    • nevermoor May 27,2009 1:40 pm || Up

      Lets examine that when he can go more than 5 innings a start.

      "There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want"
      • lenscrafters May 27,2009 1:45 pm || Up

        He’s getting better at that lately. He’s gone over 5 innings 4 of his last 5 starts.

        • nevermoor May 27,2009 2:02 pm || Up

          And it looks like he will again. Fair enough.

    Some teams have good road records. Incredible.

      Such as Hope & Crosby.

    Geren is a moron.

      what now?

      moronic decision pays off.

        Making it a gritty gamer’s decision.

    Dammit, that should have been Nomar batting DL’ed for the Mariners there.

      Stupid not-signing Branyan.

      "There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want"
      • monkeyball May 27,2009 2:20 pm || Up

        And I don’t wanna hear anything about L/R issues, either — sign the better player (and, yes, per that fuckhead Will Carroll, health is a skill).

    Is it too early to note that even just winning a series is nice. If we keep doing that, we’ll be fine.

        Lose this.

          Also, ignominy cabbage tastes better when you’re expecting it.

  19. lenscrafters May 27,2009 2:41 pm

    Ok there’s no way Buck could’ve done worse than Rajai.

    • monkeyball May 27,2009 2:44 pm || Up

      I don’t care how embarrassing a K looks, it’s still nowhere near as bad as a GIDP.

      • lenscrafters May 27,2009 2:52 pm || Up

        Interesting enough, Buck doesn’t have a GIDP yet this year (Raj has two) although that’s probably because IDIOT GEREN REFUSES TO PLAY HIM.

  20. mikeA May 27,2009 3:18 pm

    That was a relatively painless loss.

    • green star oakland May 27,2009 3:30 pm || Up

      Certainly less painful than Toronto’s was or the Dodgers’ might yet be.

      • green star oakland May 27,2009 3:41 pm || Up

        WTF … Broxton has just walked four batters in a row (although Tulowitzki let him of the hook by swinging at ball four in the dirt) and the pinch-hitting Hawpe swings at the first pitch to lose the game.

        If this is His will, He's a son of a bitch.
    • nevermoor May 27,2009 3:37 pm || Up

      A’s vs. good lefty = loss.

      "There's never enough time to do all the nothing you want"
      • mikeA May 27,2009 3:40 pm || Up

        Looks like 4 rhps vs. Texas. 3-1 or 4-0 would be very nice. It’s a little annoying that they’re going with E. Gonzalez…
