  1. My bad. Sorry, Bob. Johnny Carson once said that Uecker was his favorite guest and also the funniest.
  2. The late, great Bob Uecker would have been the perfect play-by-play announcer for this A's team. Remember how great he was in the movie Major League?
  3. Taking one's kid(s) to an A's game could have 2 effects. 1) he'll end up hating baseball, or 2) he'll believe he can perform better than A's players.
  4. Cora has a lot of options with a 9 run lead. Even Joelly is an option.
  5. It's early yet; he'll get his share of hits, hopefully. Hopefully covers a lot of ground.
  6. With all that foul territory Oakland's ball yard would have to be considered a pitcher's ballpark.
  7. I would argue he's the best defensive SS in the AL. Heck, he was the best defensive 2nd baseman when he played there.
  8. How Story will do offensively this season is a question mark, but it's a certainty that he will prevent a lot of runs defensively.
  9. The 13 errors by the A's in the 1st 5 games of a season is the most since 1906. They have plenty of time to add to that.
  10. The A's new version of 'money ball' has been reduced to quarters and half-dollars.
  11. I just refer to him as a high-priced defensive player.
  12. Since the 2019 season, Devers leads MLB in total extra base hits with 333.
  13. The average price for tickets for Oakland home games is $79.00, but some seats are as low as $10.00. IMHO, $10.00 s/b the average price.
  14. It's April 1st, so it's the perfect time for me to post that Story will hit 50 HR's and have 130 RBI this season.
  15. Jarren Duran, Red Sox outfielder, announced earlier this morning that he has decided to join the pop band DURAN DURAN and will retire from baseball effective immediately. Btw, the band will now be called DURAN DURAN DURAN. Speaking for the Red Sox, Sam Kennedy stated "Duran's speed will be missed. We do wish him luck with his new endeavor."
  16. Looks like the opposing pitchers have found Masa's weak spot. Tight inside and he gets himself out. Hopefully, Masa, can start laying off those pitches.
  17. Yup, he didn't help a pitcher who may be on his way to WOO.
  18. Definitely. That's why I compared him to Story defensively.
