I want to see how they handle the Detroit series first. Detroit gave them lots of problems last year.

Weeks aint coming back for a while. Grant Green may get called back up before him.

Hiro might be back pretty soon. They actually have some good infield depth this year.

Bah! Sucks that Sizemore reinjured his knee.

And Yeah, they A's have amazing depth. And I doubt if they'd move Nakajima to play SS as it's his natural position. Lowrie is better suited to play either middle infield spot. I just hope Hiro continues progressing well to 'murican ball.

Finally, while the A's hammered the Angels lack of pitching, esp. their pen, this series w/ Det is gonna be the true test. Scherzer v. Bartolo tonite & Verlander v. our ace Brett tmrw. 'Tis gonna be interesting to see if either offense stays hot in the carvernous O.co. Oh, and it's supposed to be a breezy wknd, too.

Cespedes on 15 day DL and Coco is day-to-day with groin pull.

And they face Verlander today. 10 in a row is going to be tough sailing.

They need Coco back fast. Young can not field the ball and he can barely hit.

I hope Parker gets his act together cause he's had some aweful starts so far.

Although last night was a close one. I'm glad to see my brother and I are not a jinx on the team. We have a 20 game season ticket package and all the games we have been to so far this season, with the exception of last night, have been a loss.

Longest game in franchise history!

Two dot races and a walk off!!!!!

Young was straight robbed of that 10th inning homer off that stupid o.co sign. There's no way that ball stays in the park w/o bouncing off that sign.
