Got this text from a friend who's an A's fan:

" u can take that POS Kazmir back now"

But then who will play Xbox and drop hammers all over Oakland?

[Blarg]

CJ is sacking so bad they went to commercial mid inning.

[Lou]

It's easier to deal with a horrible outing when you're up 5 games in the standings. Read their boards when they're getting bounced from the playoffs again

you're as good with haiku as CJ is with an early lead.

In Anaheim

 

In Anaheim and chasing Seattle for 3rd.

This. Good point

[Angel Oracle]

I think you forget that Wilson, even with his occasional rough outings, is a good pitcher right? He was great last year, and has been very solid this year....

I'm noticing a difference between A's and Angela fans... Kazmir has a bad start and they say, oh well, he'll get em next time. Wilson has a bad start and half this board is talking about how he's a "sack of shit" "a disgrace"... A little perspective goes a long way.

So does being post-season less after 2009, something the A's aren't doing!

Nice Cj

And when your most active fan forum has like 10 regular users.

Mike Butcher is an awesome pitching coach.

He reminds me so much of Mickey Hatcher..

He was slappin happy with CJ after the 1st inning, all excited, like a fan sitting in the dugout.

I fixed it.

Butchy should have pulled a knife on him after the second, and threatened to eat his family.

 

It's just good coaching.

Uh, that's one approach I guess.

[Lou]

Baylor is averaging 3.5 runs/inning

[Docwaukee]

Baylor is averaging 3.5 runs/inning

He's not running anywhere.

 

 

Too soon?

[Blarg]

I see Baylor in the dugout thumbing through the notebook trying to figure out who the hell is at bat.

[Homebrewer]

Maybe

Maybe Baylor will temper Butchy's giddy attitude with some reality.

[moccasin]

It's also easier to be patient when your guy isn't being paid 77mil, and has a track record of doing this same thing over and over again.

If Shoemaker had one bad outing, I'm sure most fans would be much easier on him.

[jshep]

Nah, threats are nice and all, but you have to eat AT LEAST one of them to show him you're serious.

[Angel Oracle]

Nice pitching "Kevin Appier" Wilson!

[Docwaukee]

Every player named CJ should stop sucking today.
