    There are starters out there that are better than Fiers that could be acquired... its the ace-level pitchers that are few/far-between.

    George Springer needs to tone the swing down.

    Stop trying to hit the ball out every pitch.

    A's broadcast just showed Gomez getting into Fiers and you could see Fiers say " Dont talk to me like that". Teammates had to pull doh-doh away.

    To sum it up: Fiers sucks and Gomez is an idiot on and off the field.

    Jesus... I just realized Jose Fernandez has 168 K in 111 innings.

    No matter the count he's up there trying to hit it 1000 feet.

    Oh ****, things may get chippy. A's, mainly the catcher, are not happy with Marwin's lazy stroll around the bases.

    There are starters better than Fiers on the 40 man right now.... Several of them in the pen right now.

    Correct. However, I'm a fan of the pen as is. They won't last however if they can't get more starting pitching depth.

    I must have missed it, was Gonzalez really admiring that shot?

    Its cause the pitcher said something to Marwin going down the first baseline. Marwin is not one to showboat or urge anything on. Marwin heard him, looked at him, rounded first and then slowed down at 2nd.
