Not available tonight. — Jeff Fletcher (@JeffFletcherOCR) May 8, 2017 Nolasco v Graveman Meyer (who?) v Cotton (on the MLB app, he gets his forst letter ...

How many heartaches must we stand before we find a team to let us win again? Motown at Oaktown for three: Friday 7:05: Michael Fulmer vs. Triggs Saturday 6:05: Jordan Zimmermann vs. Hahn Sunday 1:05: Justin Verlander Daniel Norris vs. Gray (oh yeah, the Tigers were rained out yesterday)

Rajai too

My last game thread sucked, so I’m going to jump right back on the horse. Get ready to endure lots of orange all weekend from Enron Field Minute Maid Park. Friday at 5:10: Cotton vs. Charlie Morton Saturday at 4:10: Triggs vs. Joe Musgrove Sunday at 11:10: Hahn vs. Dallas Keuchel

I find Mariners series to be especially tedious for some reason. To bad my next business trip is not until next Monday – otherwise, I could’ve missed nearly the whole thing. Anyway, four games with the M’s. Whoopee.

Cotton vs. A.J. Griffin, today Triggs vs. Darvish, Tues. Hahn vs. Martin Perez, Wed.

Keuchel vs. Graveman McCullers vs. Manaea Morton vs. Cotton Let’s drop an upper decker on these guys.

Today: Cotton vs. Ian Kennedy, 1:15 (MLB Network/MLB.tv Free Game of the Day) Tuesday: Unneeded off day Wednesday: Triggs vs. ever-popular ex-Athletic Jason Hammel, 5:15 (now on MLB Network/MLB.tv FGotD due to conflict with Sharks playoff game) Thursday: Hahn vs. Jason Vargas, 5:15

When hoping for an ugly error-marred slugfest is your best chance. After Alcantara left us trailing 8-0 through two innings, the A’s have clawed back to 8-4, still batting in the top of the fourth.
