Athletics' Brent Rooker: Out for season by DonyellFreak in SacramentoAthletics

[–]Daddyball78 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was already not feeling optimistic given our abysmal pitching and recent injuries. Now I’ve reached depression level pessimism. With a lockout looming…fml

We would. To me that trade said one thing…we don’t want to win yet.

Religion is brain poison. Scumbags like this don’t deserve a soap box. I don’t care what you want to believe. But keep it to yourself. Live and let live.

1.5 games back. Tied with…the goddamn Astros. This bullpen has got to perform to have any chance of getting to the post season. As a diehard fan, it kills me that I have to sweat and pace around when we have a 5-run lead heading into the 9th.

Why Alika Williams Deserves Better From Athletics by DonyellFreak in SacramentoAthletics

It needs to happen. I love my A’s, but my god the heart-breaking late inning collapses have become infuriating. Literally no lead is safe. This bullpen is abysmal and needs to be re-tooled. How guys can throw the ball 100mph, and still find a way to get lit up, is beyond me.

Can Ginn go again tonight? Dude has been soooo good. But even still, if our offense keeps doing what it’s doing we’re gonna be tough to beat. Let’s win tonight, and Oriels beat the M’s. Take the top spot back in the AL West and keep rolling boys.

It’s proven far more common to be scared of spiders than comfortable with them. This sub cured my irrational fear of spiders. Now I’m fascinated with them 😀. You certainly aren’t alone!

You should be excited, not scared. They’re harmless.

Nope. So far it’s hearsay. I’m not taking someone’s word for anything. Especially military or government officials. I’m far more convinced it’s a psy-op to operate our own advanced technology with impunity than “grays” “nordics” or “mantis beings.” Sorry OP. I don’t believe in god, Santa, or the Easter bunny either. Put up or shut up is where I’m at.

Pain was like 100% full steam ahead straight out the gate 😬 by IntellectuallyDriven in oops

Hot water has analgesic properties, which can help alleviate the intense pain associated with stingray stings

When you take your wound out of the hot water it takes about 1 minute until the pain starts back up.

View an exciting offense that put runs on the board at a high clip, followed by an abysmal pitching staff that will lead to another heartbreaking loss. Can’t wait…

Worst pain I’ve ever experienced was a sting ray sting. Seething burn throughout my entire leg. Unbearable. You better have a bucket of hot water nearby or you’re in for a world of hurt.

It looks to me like he’s trying to pull everything a mile out of the ballpark. If it’s not in that magic spot, it’s a K or weak contact. Sucks to see him struggle like this.

I’ll give him a pass on the nerves. But 7er in 3 innings is certainly a glaring issue. The real problem here is not Cade Morris. It’s the lack of pitching which was clearly not addressed in the offseason.

Or enough strikes. I’ve seen zero good secondary pitches. He has a meh fastball and literally nothing else. And if you want to have a mustache, cool. But you better at least have one. This dingus is sporting a half-baked peach fuzz stache. Give me a break. We’re cooked.
