Turning Seth Brown into Barry Bonds lol. Good thing Hahn doesn't even bother to get a real LH power bat in this lineup.

I hear Seth Brown is available

Carlos Pena and Scott Hatteberg still available.

4HRs to 0.  By the Oakland A's at home 

How the front office allows this is beyond me.

Let’s go suave flashy dick… only need 3 to tie it now. ?

We have a team of lifeless zombies that seemingly don’t care that they are failing over and over again and that the team is vastly underperforming. Obviously I don’t condone the bump of the umpire, but I have no problem with TA (or anyone) having an emotional outburst. They should be pissed, maybe someone can inject life into this team. Obviously it won’t come from our manager, an emotional outburst will land him in the hospital for sure

They need to fire the whole coaching staff and front office. This shit is inexcusable.

And for a guy who's strike zone is as big as Texas.  He swings at everything.

So say he gets a 6 game suspension.  Way to miss about ten percent of the remaining games when “every game counts”.

I can't believe how bad we are at home.

4 to 1

But I get your point

A’s four homers tonight so far.  Giving away our home field advantage once again.  Go after Gallo, we need a lefty slugger pretty badly.

Well, with the way guys get rest, maybe not that many.

I don’t get how all these teams have minimum salary relievers that are better than the high-priced Sox guys

I was actually thinking maybe we can get Brown in the 1st inning...then I saw his .270 OBP. He can play OF but he's probably trash out there. 

It's crazy to me that someone with a .279 (updated) OBP is an above average hitter by wRC+. I don't want Brown either, but that shows you how broken the offensive environment is in baseball right now.

It's amazing how the A's relievers they've used so far today have way better numbers than most of the guys in our $50 million bullpen. 

Awesome 0-4 for Yoan tonight.

Give ‘em hell old blue dick.

FO too worried about relievers and not bringing in any lefty sluggers.  Our priorities have been terrible.

As I’ve said in many posts this year, this is a snake bit club that under current management will not make the playoffs this year and if they stand pat for next year management wise they will get the same results. The roster is very good, but remember the Chicago Bulls? Doug Collins was not coach to win championships, same situation here, ironically same owner. Players good, management bad. 

Pull the fucking ball in the air

3 pitches, 2 outs

Boyz have called it a night....

He's back.

In my opinion Grandal has to start looking and getting dangerous at the plate or this team is toast.

Why is the roster considered really good?  Lots of injury prone hitters with insignificant track records and older players who are showing signs of being cooked.

Timmy needs a shrink.
