Don't have much to say about that game FRI night.
Same story as for much of the season.
Offense stinks.
Cahill? His first horrible outing of the season after pitching two solid and one great one in his first three.

5 runs, what is this thing called, offense?
Braden continues to show why he's been the best SP for this rotation. Don't know if that's a good or bad thing to say.
Buck finally gets playing time, HR, as does Giambi whos been stinking it up.
5-2 bottom of the 8th.
Oh yeah, GO CRABTREE!

I'm very excited with the draft so far. Hoping for Michael Johnson or Shonn Green in round 3 tomorrow.

I'll be honest, I had flashbacks of last year's MLB draft when Smoak went one pick before the A's selection.
Felt that way with Crabtree today.
Thank goodness it didn't happen again.

Well we won a series, first one since getting jacked up the past road trip.
What happened to the Rays, they're playing just as bad as the A's are. Maybe some pressure from being the top dogs now. Still think they'll be very godo at the end.
Nice rebound start by Eveland. He needed it.
Tough next series against a offensive charged TEX team.
Hopefully the bats that woke up this past weekend continues.

Although Eveland did leave a mess to the pen but they like usual have been lights out this season.
If only the offense could hit like this consistently.

What do you think of the draft overall ninerpride? Personally i'd give it a B just because of the Crabtree factor.
