GameDay Thread 8/30/14 A's @ Angels

[Sherlock31]

Good job but he's done

[CanadianHalo]

Couldn't ask for a better 3 innings. Good job Rasmus!

Now if only we didn't have Freese and Conger maybe we could get some dam runs

[Halos of Anaheim]

He better go one more. He looks amazing right now.

[Stradling]

50? I thought they said his arm was stretched out enough to start?

How could it be, he has been in our pen. He threw 55+ pitches the other day. I'd let him start the 4th.

[Stradling]

Roth is warming up still/again. He's coming in.

[Chris]

Ya start the 4th, you can always bring in Roth after a batter or two..

[Angels]

Still scratching my head how a soft-tosser with 53 walks and 79 strikeouts in 140 AA innings is considered a "starting" option in such an important game.

[Angels]

Roth has control issues and doesn't strike anyone out.

[bloodbrother]

Calhoun slumping hard right now

[fan_since79]

The A's are going to tee off of Roth lmao.

 

That's what I'm dreading.

see:  injuries to Skaggs and Richards, 4 man rotation, performance by LeBlanc last start, starters at AAA

[fan_since79]

And so it begins...with a leadoff walk.

 

[Angels]

And there it is, a walk.

[Season Over]

Cool story, Roth.

[Halos of Anaheim]

Offense needed to put up some crooked numbers today with our SP situation, I'd be really shocked/proud of this team if we win this one.

[papawealey]

Jeez Roth, a leadoff walk?

[bloodbrother]

Had him 0-2 but can't put him away because he throws junk

[Aaronkv]

After 0-2 too. Sigh

[Jason]

Hopefully Roth doesn't stink as usual.

[martinpa25]

God dammit

[fan_since79]

And now Conger gets into the act. Dammit!

 

This inning is going to explode very shortly.

[martinpa25]

Wtf is conger doing

[Season Over]

Conger has been poop on a platter this season.

[Jason]

Hopefully Roth doesn't stink as usual.

Nevermind

[bloodbrother]

I'm sick of Conger...can't hit for shit and has a terrible, inaccurate arm
