    This could be a beautiful capper to the weekend and that Texans game. If you bet on a four game sweep by the A's minor league squad you should be a millionaire.

    Is it because he uses a clipboard or a pen that it annoys you? Sounds like it's one of them, and that makes sense.

    How in the ever-loving **** do you follow up a 10 game win streak with a pitiful, abysmal series like this one? Especially with Cleveland being white hot and now in 1st place? And the Texans...

    Houston sports, man... I swear.

    Well, I guess the way things are going, the silver lining is that these guys won't have to travel far after they're swept by the Red Sox.

    I'm going to to put some IcyHot on my balls, see if it'll shock me back to reality and maybe this whole weekend was just a dream.

    Keuchel's mental midgetry will always make him a #2 behind studs like Verlander.

    Hinch should've left him in to stew in his own juice. Not like we can win a game against this team anyway.

    Ahh, yes the hindsight acronym is always a strong move.

    It's all good, can't even get mad at this point, all we can do is SOHs.

    This team is flat not ready. Also why Verlander was jonesing for the Cubs. Team could screw up a wet dream after that 7 game run. We will end up playing for home field in our last series of the regular season. If we lose it to Boston don't be shocked when we bow out of round 1 3-1.

    No I don't live and die by one game. But being swept by Oakland when you are fighting for home field just shows they are not ready to compete with the big boys.

    Book on Keuchel seems fairly obvious. Wait until something doesn't go his way and then just don't swing! Guaranteed runs.
