QUOTE(Heads22 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 04:36 PM) I wonder where Jabroni is? Maybe not home?

QUOTE(ThinWhiteDuque @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 04:03 PM) How about Cliff? We only have a 4 run lead.

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 04:00 PM) he's still only faced the minimum so thats pretty cool. Uh.. no... He walked someone earlier.

QUOTE(Cuck the Fubs @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 03:46 PM) Did he go back down to the minors during that time? No..

The KC centerfielder is an infielder, look at his defense. I really hope Jeckle sees this game and his fielding, and realizes that his hopes and dreams of Cintron taking over for BA in CF is a horrible idea. And Pods, wow.

wtf.. people are posting in the game thread. I left it earlier because no one was Great play by Juan to end the inning

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 02:19 PM) When you have the type of team Oakland has you don't trade your quality starting pitching for a group of prospects to try and get better for future years. That pitching staff is so ridiculously strong and to take away from that would just be retarded imo. You are thinking in the completely wrong way for a team like Oakland. Because of their lack of money, they have to trade players that won't be on their team in a year because it helps them get the players that will be cheap studs in the future. Its basically, do you want Zito for another half year, or do you want someone like Sowers for 6 years in the future (I only mention Sowers because of the Indians, I don't really know if he'd be an option or not)?

Fun game!

Nice single for Cintron

He was out by a mile. That was a nice throw by Bako.

5 pitch walk for Pods

Nice easy inning for Vazquez.. 1-2-3. Game thread seems dead

He gawn! Nice pitch there

Keep the ball down Vazquez... seriously.

No Sweeney today!

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:16 PM) Which is why I believe Vazquez will be the odd man out. Vazquez and Ozzie are pretty close too. They aren't family, but they are pretty good friends.

QUOTE(Wedge @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:23 PM) The problem with that is then our bullpen becomes more questionable. Right now, McCarthy is doing great in filling Hermanson's shoes as the "glue-guy" in the bullpen. We lose a lot when McCarthy goes to the rotation. QUOTE(Felix @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:11 PM) Brandon McCarthy? I'm assuming that any starter would be dealt for bullpen help, so BMac could be moved into the bullpen without a problem. (by bullpen, I meant rotation )

QUOTE(LVSoxFan @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:10 PM) If you trade Garcia to keep Buehrle, then who fills the Garcia spot? Isn't Garcia our #3? Brandon McCarthy? I'm assuming that any starter would be dealt for bullpen help, so BMac could be moved into the bullpen without a problem.

QUOTE(AbeFroman @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 01:06 PM) he's got homers in the last five games Huh? http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/profile?statsId=7028

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 19, 2006 -> 12:32 PM) Be real dumb of the A's to trade him imo. Why? He won't be in Oakland next year, and if they trade him now, they can get a good group of solid prospects.

Keep the ball in the park Vazquez Lets keep this hot streak going

bmags, you are an indians fan. go hang out with SSH and qwerty. k

I missed most of the game, but a win is always nice

He's still perfect.. yes!
