Guess that's good news for this LH based lineup although the A's will be facing two LHSP to start the series.

You think the A's can double their HR output, 3, so far this season in the three game set MON-WED.

I really hope you guys sweep New York this week,it would make my week.

I'm going to be the biggest A's fan all week,because then they have Boston next weekend..

I'd just like to score some runs.

Last thing this young pitching staff needs is to worry that any mistake they make could cost them a loss if the A's bats go silent as they did for the past two games and really for most of this season.

Still can't believe how bad the A's AVG, SLG, and OBP is thru two weeks.

Gladly take 2 out of 3, but if I had to bet, I'd say 1 out of 3 especially if the offense doesn't wake up.

Well looking at the minors and least we're seeing some production down there.

Carter after a slow start is starting to hit well. Went 3/5 today with 2 2Bs, a HR and 4 RBIs.

For the season now he's hitting .286/.353/.476 with 5 2Bs/HR/14 RBIs in 42 ABs/10 games.

One huge drawback, he has 15 Ks in those 40 ABs.

Send us some of that Blue Jay "power hitting" karma...we have none!

Our only (batting) highlight this weekend was a B Croz triple.

We have some good young pitchers that no teams have really seen before,it's only early in the season,I'm sure your bats will come alive,hopefully against the Yankee's
