#Athletics announce closer Sean Doolittle not expected to be ready to start season because of L shoulder issue.

Doolittle has a small rotator cuff tear, inflammation. He had a platelet-rich plasma injection and will be re-evaluated.

 

 

bullpen takes a major hit if he has to miss extended time/perhaps miss the entire season.

That's what he gets for passing too much.

Getting injured on the A's means Billy Beane can't trade you. Sounds like a victory for Sean Do Little.

[Troll Daddy]

Tyler Clippard to the rescue.

bad news for the A's -- lose a quality pen guy and lose a guy they could move for more player additions at trade deadline time.........

[DW711]

He's the last guy they'd trade.

 

He's cheap!
