Gameday Thread: 4/20 vs. A's

[nando714]

Joyce dribbler to 2nd.

fire hatcher...too soon?

[bloodbrother]

Joyce as cleanup hitter is not going to get you anywhere

[nando714]

Can't take this shit anymore. Night fellas.

[disarcina]

1,2, 3 nada....

[Ohtaniland]

Here come's the "it's early" talk

[bloodbrother]

Did that inning last longer than 3 minutes?

[disarcina]

we need to at least split this four game series with Oakland......

[Ohtaniland]

CALZONE - it's been a long dry spell for Canadian based NHL teams.........last Cup for them was your Habs in the McSorely Cup playoffs -- geez -- that's what? 25 years ago now?

 

Long drought for sure. Habs fans want every coach fired every season. Scioscia wouldn't last two seasons in Montreal. 

[disarcina]

yeah -- Victor launched into that 'it's early' talk stuff.

 

It's early until it's not.

 

the real problem with a slow April is that most of the games are against AL West teams so every game is a two-fer.

 

you can find yourself 10 games back real quick.

Just watching Joyce throw a baseball makes me not want him on the field at all.

[Docwaukee]

and this is where Salas does his thing by turning a slight deficit into a game out of reach.

McSorelys curved stick changed hockey history.

[Mark68]

At what point is it no longer early?

[Stradling]

At what point are we going to blame Claude? Matsui was pretty awful under Matsuiland. Hamilton sucked during Hamiltown. And now so far Calhoun has been pretty brutal in Calzone. I am pretty sure this is all Claude's fault. Jerk.

[Lhalo]

Close throw.

[Angelsfirst]

Nice throw Joyce. Doin it all tonight.

[disarcina]

nice throw -- good running play by A's runner.

 

this is how you win games.

 

of course, the Halos runner would have been tossed out.

 

not sure if they kept these stats last year (am sure they did) but I think my guy DiSar's first season as 3B base coach resulting in Halos leading the league in runners thrown out at third and at home.

 

what sort of throw was that by Joyce?  GEEZ.

 

A's manufactured that insurance run.

[Tyler]

Seriously. Get Joyce off the field... am I the only one watching him play defense this year? I'd rather watch a Josh Hamilton at bat.

[Ohtaniland]

At what point is it no longer early?

 

When Mota say's his famous........"It's getting a little late to say it's still early"

[Mark68]

Calhoun's arm>>>>>>Joyce's arm

[Ohtaniland]

At what point are we going to blame Claude? Matsui was pretty awful under Matsuiland. Hamilton sucked during Hamiltown. And now so far Calhoun has been pretty brutal in Calzone. I am pretty sure this is all Claude's fault. Jerk.

 

Guilty as charged!

[Frank Selders]

A's are a fundamentalay sound team. Angels not too much.

Its okay Angels, just keep living off the Ducks success and light the Halo orange tonight.  

[Docwaukee]

nice throw Matt.  you'd have had a shot at him if he was tagging from first.  

[Stradling]

We could be the best fundamentally sound team in the league, if we are batting .180 it really doesn't matter.
