This lineup...hopefully they can all get it together for one game and hopefully turn around their seasons. Not likely, but one can hope!
Cole is doing Cole things so far, but Mengden is a fun guy to watch. There's a Hobbit doing the field reporting for the A's broadcast...Is it Kotsay? Byrnes? I can't place him since he has a ludicrous beard. eta: this is the least sharp Cole has been all season. He is still befuddling their batters, just taking more pitches to do it.
Haven't looked at the framing numbers but man Stassi seems to steal a bunch of strikes. Think he's the full-time guy in '19.
I honestly don't see how Stassi isn't the starting catcher next year unless J.T. Realmuto somehow finds his way here.
That was funny how the camera was pointed down pointing to center field on Fisher's HR and the ball was actually way up there. They totally missed on that trajectory. Nice job, Stassi and Fisher!
Will McCann stick around to be the backup? That'd be great. Fisher ****ing hit the ****ing **** out of that ball. Wow.
