Apes will grill 37

Fuck you, Republicans. ZipMower nm bait … the YOTD, however, goes to Matt’s choice of photo to illustrate this item. Of course, he missed the perfect photo to use for this one: 12 and 13 year olds, Drewd Litigators: is Calcaterra off-base in his Bonds wrap-up? Can they give $5? Pecs -> Ducks Well, I ...

The ill is a grass 26

Kahrl on Cahill (tl;dr) Also tl;dr, skimming the first couple screens of this seems to confirm my inchoate/uninformed anti-batted ball data biases (and anti-advanced fielding stats that rely on batted ball data) nm post-kitchen-renovation lifeplan bait (via Tango) Awesomeness from FFFB: I’m obligated and happy to pimp this. Dunno if I’ll be able to make ...

The Grill is a ass 186

Mistakes happen, but when you’re a lawyer you don’t fix ‘em by pulling the old switcheroo. Jean Quan — gettin’ things done in and out of Oakland Nice Deuk Neukom profile Well, that’s odd — Slusser is in Chicago, but sfgate (dunno ’bout the fishwrap) has an AP recap up from last night, while Slusser’s ...

A dart-throwing chimpanzee 47

Cahill’s deal, per Olney: along the lines of the five-year, $30MM deals signed by Ricky Romero and Jon Lester, reports ESPN’s Buster Olney, “with some option years and a $1.5MM buyout.” YOTW: If there’s a meritocracy somewhere out there in the American economy, journalism isn’t it Well, shit: this one is even better This is ...

Game 9: Escape from Twin Cities 62

I believe that the A’s will score more than two runs today. Though I find my belief tested by that first inning.

Game 8: A’s @ Twins 97

Just in case I’m not the only person who’s going to spoil a lovely spring Saturday late afternoon with A’s baseball, here’s your open thread. No changes to the lineup. Slusser reports that Sweeney and Powell will start tomorrow; however, the weather forecast for Minneapolis tomorrow isn’t terribly promising. A little fun with SSS with ...
