And there's two.

Green & Gold Heart · 06-05-2014, 04:17 PM

Well two out of three ain't bad!

RchW · 06-05-2014, 04:43 PM

I guess Tanaka is the real deal.

With games like that you just tip your hat to the guy and move on. If we didn't win off the bullpen, we weren't going to win.

I expect the A's to pummel the O's on behalf of the Blue Jays starting tomorrow.

Machado, he's a nice guy, eh?

In an 11-1 game, you need to have a little excitement. Ya know, thow a bat here or there, pitch a little too far inside. EXCITEMENT!

To quote Mr. MM... /sarcasm

Well the A's lost but that throw Yoenis Cespedes made in the 8th was phenomenal.

Another 2 of 3.

Well at least our depleted pitching staff doesn't break it's hand in anger after a game. Oh, wait. I typed a little too fast.

mirrf · 06-20-2014, 08:30 PM

Brad "Dollar" Mills goes for the A's tonight. Let's hope this is another one of the Billy steals.

He didn't pitch all that well, but we got the W.

That first inning was awesome. The rest, not so much.

But I like W's.

The A's could end up with three or four All Stars this year. Legitimately.

Donaldson looks to be voted in.
Kazmir and Doolittle should be shoo-ins.

Norris, Cespedes, Moss also with strong cases.

Usually we just get one guy, a pitcher who may or may not be used, but this year I might actually have reason to watch the All Star game.

I'd add Sonny Gray to the list. But I think Donaldson, Norris, Kazmir, and possibly Doolittle make it. -With Cespedes invited to the HR derby.

Disappointing that we couldn't pull off the comeback and the four-game sweep yesterday but this team is just rolling. I was thinking, I don't remember seeing an A's team this good since the 1988-90 era. I think this is better than the Big Three teams.

Green & Gold Heart · 06-24-2014, 01:32 PM

I love this from Athletics Nation today.
Vogt is so A's, and I love these A's.

I believe in Stephen Vogt - Athletics Nation

Bluenoser · 06-26-2014, 03:52 PM

Not particularly an A's fan, but have to be impressed with run differential.

+129

The next closest team is the Mariners at +51
