25-18
Winner takes all (temporarily) today. If we win today we leave Oakland back in 1st place.

We need to hope for 5-6 good innings from Garcia.

We need to hope for 5-6 good innings from Garcia. When Valdez and Odorizzi return, Castro will make a great multiple innings pitcher....He should be able to 2 to 3 innings every 3rd or 4th game.. If that could actually happen that would be extremely valuable for the team...Possibly Javier could so the same. Greinke Valdez McCullers Urquidy Odorizzi |

Greinke Valdez McCullers Urquidy Odorizzi If that rotation is effective, having Garcia and Javier as 2-3 inning guys before Pressly will be fantastic. I think they're both starters long-term, but right now they'll have tremendous value in the bullpen. |

Greinke Valdez McCullers Urquidy Odorizzi This is the rotation Blum and Kalas talked about last night. I can see that being a good idea.......Javier is capable of dominating for a couple of innings at a time. Adding him and Garcia to the pen to go with Paredes, Scrubb, Raley, Pressley, Abreu and hopefully another lefty from Taylor/Emanuel. This should allow us to release or trade Joe Smith. We still have no idea if Baez will even pitch this year. I can see Bielak going back to Sugar Land. Has anyone seen an update on how Taylor is coming along toward rehabbing his ankle? |

LOL I had a brain fart, but, since I'm a "mongoloid", I can be excused. I meant to say Javier Speaking of Castro, I see that he is riding the pine again today while Maldonado's no-hitting ass is still in the lineup. Maldonado must be blackmailing our moron manager. What difference does it make if a left-hander is pitching for the A's since Maldonado can't hit a righty or lefty. |

Maldonado is darker than Castro.

Maldonado is darker than Castro. That probably has something to do with it. Maybe Castro would refuse to wear a BLM shirt and Maldonado has a collection. Any clown who is 15-104 with 40 K's should not be a regular. Castro should at least be getting equal time. |

Our top 5 hitters in the lineup are all batting well over .300. That is awesome.

Two-strike homer to Kemp. Not a good sign for Garcia.

Garcia isn’t missing Maldonado by a little. The control is way off.
