    Diaz doesn't help himself so slow between pitches, especially in 8th inning of a long game. Kills his defense. Ugh team falling apart now.

    Diaz and Feliz combining for the Assholes of the Year Award. The fact that Devenski has to be up warming up right now is annoying as hell.

    Rather...this is precisely when you use Diaz. It's rare that it would snowball the way it did today. But when it happens, you still have a reasonable lead even after pretty much everything that could've gone wrong, did (Feliz coming in and promptly letting both runners come in, in addition to the shellacking Diaz took)

    Who here thought We would enter the ninth in a save situation a half hour ago?

    Let's cut this bum and see what Jamie Moyer is up to.

    Exactly. Many will blame Hinch for allowing the A's back into the game by sending Diaz out there, but it was the right decision and one that most managers would make.

    Hinch left Diaz in too long.

    Diaz isn't a mlb pitcher. He needs to be back in the minors after today.

    Jaycob Brugman has a very punchable face.....I'm sure he's a perfectly nice dude, but he's got a punchable face.

    That's fine by me. Just saying, you send your worst pitcher who hasn't worked much out there in that situation. It's nice to get more confirmation that he's not an MLB pitcher today rather than hold him on the roster until he comes in and loses a game that's closer than 8 runs.

    Wish we coulda drove those in instead of completely whimpering out in those last 2 AB's. Oakland is motivated.
