Kiké just can't join in on the fun. His bat is dead.

Detroit with the combined no-hitter against the Jays. Chance to gain a game on Toronto if we hang on to this lead.

Kikéâs bat speed and athleticism donât look the same after his abdominal injury, itâs painful at this point

It might seem impossible, but the A's are actually worse than their record indicates. Um, as I was saying. I mean these guys are God-awful.

Oh my, this is a very, very bad team.
Happy to have Wong as our catcher - bat coming alive too.

Nice to have the comforting familiarity of the onslaught of “this team sucks” comments in the series thread, even nicer when it’s about the other team

Can't pitch, can't field AND can't run the bases? Damn.

Yup - Masa has a nice kit of hitting skills. Some Ichiro, some Boggs, some Gwynn going on thete

So...we are turning things around with a few lingering cold bats - Raffy (as I was typing this, he doubled), Casas, Arroyo, Kiké, Duvall. I expect some or all to heat up in the 2nd half.

The odds of the A's using a position player to pitch the bottom of the 8th have to be pretty high. Does FG post odds on that?

Wake is so clueless (thinking Toronto traded for Matt Olson), Middlebrooks is well-prepared at least

The usage of Paxton today should indicate whether the Sox see hun more as a trade chip or a long term piece.
