am I the only one optimistic that they'll go to the playoffs? It aint like the Angels are running away with it. If they're still competing by the deadline, I think Beane will use one of his trade baits to better the club for a push
The Angels aren't running away with it (yet anyway,) but I think Eveland and Smith will gradually decline as they become more familiar to other teams... Also I have a feeling that Blanton or Duke (or both) will get traded away before they bring anyone to try to make a push...

And I think they're more than one or two (or more) moves away from making a REAL push anyway.

12-0, ouch

Eveland got lit up

Thomas goes on the DL

Chavez is back
Rotoworld: Eveland allowed 11 hits, topping his previous season-high total by four. It's probably not a complete coincidence that his worst outing of the year came the first time he was asked to face a team for a second time.

hmm

damn this game tonight is getting dramatic as fuck, Chavez 3 run homer (whered that come from?), then he scores when he should have been out at the plate. Granderson makes a hell of a catch in center to keep us from going ahead, tied going into the ninth.

i really dont know what to think, there offense is obviously not consistent. But atleast they dont have a bunch of old guys trying to make a run.

who cares we won the last series against yall so now were even and being 4.5 back instead of 6.5 is a lot better. You should feel very fortunate that our offense aint so great right now cuz our pitching is pretty good.

i forgot that other series against the Angels was a 4 game series so we split so those assholes are 1 up on us in the season series. Just think if the A's would have even put up a fight against our division wed be even or ahead of the Angels
