    Could completely vision him being lazy assuming an out though

    This A's team makes the 2013 Astros look like the 2019 Astros.

    Thought they missed Oswalt's 2.73 but he didn't start in 8 of his 28 games

    A's on pace for 31 wins.

    That would have to be an MLB record low for 162 games.

    I've never heard of anyone below 40, maybe even 45 wins.

    Just looked it up, 2003 Tigers 43 wins in the record for fewest wins.

    Julks
    .274

    Projected 600 AB season
    77 Runs
    15 HRs
    77 RBIs

    Reminds me of a fellow named Michael Brantley.

    The only knock against him is he doesn't walk enough.

    Well that's now three pop ups from Alex with two finding a hole but he's still popping up at an alarming rate

    Abreu now with 103 men left on base, tied for 4th highest in the majors.

    Next highest on the Astros Pena and Bregman tied with 75.

    So How long with Abreu? Guy doesn’t look like he will hit one hr this season. Dusty keeps trotting him out there like a sacrificial lamb.

    At some point you'd think he might luck into one, but dude is so ass cant even manage that. Definition of a blackhole on offense. 103 stranded runners is insane

    Yes, aside from not being anywhere near a .300 hitter, striking out a lot and never walking he's just like Brantley
