Agreed. One of those guys that I wish the Pohlads would have burned their money on. He never had any interest in coming here. He was just using us to leverage a better deal with the Cubs. I'm glad he didn't come here.

Not sure what's wrong with the quoting feature on this thread.

Bad game this afternoon, but I couldn't be more impressed with what the Athletics are doing this season. Houston has the second best run differential in the league, yet Oakland is just one game back. Legit shot at going from last to first. How do they do it? Davis certainly isn't the Saber obp guy that Mauer is, but he sure hits a lot of balls over the fence. Seems like a valuable tool to have if you are a baseball player.

The A's just keep impressing. That's the stuff I always see too, Pete The AWESOME Astros yadda yadda yadda .... oh, and btw, the A's are basically at the same pace. They try to run on the cheap, too, but the difference between them and the Twins, is that they're good at it.

HRs and some decent pitching The A's are sending out a lineup that has 7 or more guys with double digit HRs every game. Lucroy says the other advantage is the Coliseum "We have a built-in home-field advantage here, because it's a graveyard. So teams don't want to play here. It's true. I'm just telling you."

We make our opponents feel very good about themselves here at our house.

It's so weird that AUG 23, you face a team for the first time all season.

Amazing how much its changed Ed That's why you were taught as an IFer ... NEVER hang on the bag. And when you had to hang on the bag, your throw better be started, and it better be head-high. Because YOU'RE going down, if not.

End of the play Fans booing But that's it. No fight, no benches cleared. Out at second on a force play. As the announcer said that's how they play it in the World Series.

Vida Blue was one of a kind. Had some incredible years.

No worry about retaliation, etc ... get up and do it again No going on the injury list, etc We have some guys who would have had to retire after that hit

Rudi was part of the A's in 5 straight ALCS Lost to Baltimore in 71, then 3 straight years of wins and WS titles, then lost to Boston

Mr. Ed -> RE: MLB General Information PT 4 (8/23/2018 11:27:51 AM)
In 1972 Regular season Joe Rudi's WAR was 6.1 In 1974, it was 4.7 Not bad.

Would love to find that rookie card 1967 Last year A's were in Kansas City
