"A slumpbuster is if a team's in a slump, or if you personally are in a slump, you gotta find the fatest, gnarliest, grossest chick and you just gotta lay the wood to her. And when you do that, you're just gonna have instant success. And it could also be called jumping on a grenade for the team." - Mark Grace

The circle is complete. Now, they can get things going.

That's the best lineup we can put out there, offensively.

That's the best lineup we can put out there, offensively. If the best offensive lineup we have includes Gattis and Correa, it is not that good. Gattis is in about a 0-20 streak and Correa is lost at the plate. I can see having Carlos in the lineup, but, not as the cleanup hitter

How is it that when the A’s can’t score, neither can the opposition?

Any player in AAA has just a good a chance of getting Hit, HR as Gattis at this Point.

Right now, I think I'd use Tucker or Fisher either one over Gattis.....less likely to hit into DP's

Mariners beat the A's 2-0 in extras on a two-run Dee Gordon home run.

That's the best lineup we can put out there, offensively. Until the majority of these guys start hitting, it won’t make much difference what the lineup or batting order is.

The DP’s are so bad that if they just up the steals and hit and runs, I think they can steal some wins before Springer and Altuve get back.
