How Lowrie Affects the A’s Infield
Posted on 6 Feb 2013 by Josh Muller.
With my next post, my intent was to discuss the A’s outfield situation but in light of Monday’s trade I’m obviously going to focus on the infield. On Monday the Oakland Athletics acquired infielder Jed Lowrie and right-handed reliever Fernando Rodriguez from the Houston Astros in exchange for first baseman Chris Carter and two prospects, right-handed pitcher Brad Peacock, and catcher Max ...

Three More Games in the Hunt for a Green October
Posted on 1 Oct 2012 by Josh Muller.
Folks, we only have three more games left in this weird, wild season. Can you believe it? And with only one series against the Texas Rangers left, the Oakland Athletics are sitting in a pretty solid spot and control their own destiny. Their magic number is down to one, which means that if they win just one game out of the final three then Oakland would be in the playoffs. Or if both the Angels ...

A’s Have Traveled An Improbable Road
Posted on 13 Sep 2012 by Josh Muller.
As I write this on September 13, the Oakland Athletics have just taken three out of four in Anaheim, a little payback for the sweep the Angels handed the A’s in Oakland about a week ago. Since then, the A’s have won six out of seven games on the road. In fact, the A’s tied an Oakland record with 12 strait road victories, they have a one game cushion for the top wild card spot and only sit...

Manny Not Being Manny In Oakland
Posted on 15 Jun 2012 by Josh Muller.

I really don’t think it’s that big of a deal. He just never really got going, only hitting 2 doubles and zero home runs in AAA Sacramento, a hitter-friendly environment. Apart from that, he can only DH, so heâ€...

Meet Sean Doolittle
Posted on 15 Jun 2012 by Josh Muller.
I know I said in a couple of weeks time, we’d have a better idea of where the A’s would be at the end of the year, and of course, during that time virtually nothing has changed. Oakland is still 8 games back of first, Yoenis Cespedes and Brandon McCarthy are out with what will hopefully be minor injuries, and the wins (and losses) are coming in bunches. The A’s took three out of four from...

Minor Reinforcements
Posted on 17 Sep 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
The Phillies should clinch their fifth straight NL East divisional title very soon. Philadelphia manager Charlie Manuel will also find ample opportunity to begin affording the regulars some extra rest in coming days. Most teams expanded their major league rosters to 40 adding a collection of players from their minor league systems as the AAA and AA seasons came to an end September 1. The Philli...
