Oh man Bundy and Joe West in the same game. This one's gonna be a doozy

Lol Bundy's ERA is 6.66. Clearly a sign

I'd be totally fine with just re-signing our guys and maybe adding a bullpen arm

Not sure what you're talking about, I think Michael Jordan will lead the league in touchdowns this year.

In the jungles of Papua New Guinea to be exact. Internet can be a bit spotty sometimes but I do my best to grace this board with my extensive sportsball acumen

These kind of contracts pretty much never age well, regardless of player. But when you haven't been able to develop prospects for like a decade straight you have no choice but to rely on the free agent market

Canada sounds nice. Hot as hell year round where I am.

I don't think we'll have to worry about this for the duration of Rendon's contract

We have Gosselin for a fraction of the price

The Trout contract is looking worse by the day

I honestly wouldn't mind if we never signed a hitter for more than 3/60 or so ever again. And that includes Ohtani. We're batting like 0 for 1000 at this point

Barria's yacht fuel joke at the company holiday party was in poor taste; he'll be paying the price for years

Nailed it

Agree with this. He was just starting to build momentum in AAA and get his K rate slightly down. Let him finish out the year in the minors on a high note rather than scuffle while getting partial playing time. You have to also keep his trade value in mind for this offseason. Likewise for Detmers, he had one start in AAA. Let him build more momentum; he has known issues with his HR rate and fastball command, which we saw on display yesterday. He doesn't have the arsenal of an Alek Manoah where he can breeze through the minors and succeed right away. But then again, I tend to be conservative regarding prospects, especially when the major team doesn't really need them

Honestly it's another lost season and I prefer this to seeing Detmers and Rodriguez get rushed and struggle like we saw with Adell

Yesssss this is the news I've been waiting for. Bring back Blanton and we can have the killer B's

Hope the bullpen can give us 6+ good innings tonight

This sort of thing seems to be common across baseball (look at Syndergaard for example) just due to all of the precise mechanics and timing involved. I just assume that when someone gets injured their season is essentially lost.

Gotta love planned obsolescence

Plus you know those numbers will drop even further once you add in the Angels factor

It was absolutely a desperation move to call up a guy drafted last year with one AAA start under his belt. We may be excited about it, but just like calling up Adell last year it was ill advised.

Yes it does

Pujols just hit a bases clearing double. Nice

That makes it worse, not better

The A's are a well-run organization that consistently does more with less. The Angels are a complete mess. Big surprise
