    Pretty sure Kazmir is a big boy who calls his own game.

    He's been less than stellar thus far... not bad, but not as good as Kuechel, McCullers and McHugh.

    I am just saying, there is a reason why the team pitching statistics are so much better with Castro behind the plate versus Conger. It isn't just small sample size or coincidence.

    yeah they keep getting punched in the mouth and asking "what is that I'm feeling?"

    Haven't quite figured it out yet unfortunately but they better figure it out fast

    Are they really?

    Kazmir was giving up some pretty bad HR's with Castro as well.

    And as dumb as the catcher ERA stat is... Conger has the lead over Castro.

    Anyone know why the A's dugout is on the 3rd base side? Find it strange.

    I think he's saying...

    "Watch Oakland go back to being the ****ty team they are when they play Texas.

    What a ****ing choke job [by Houston]."


    Correct me if I'm wrong. :grin:

    I have this feeling that the A's won't be doing this to the Rangers.

    The Coliseum was first and foremost a baseball stadium... then Al Davis ruined it.

    Kazmir made two bad pitches tonight. His HR-FB% has been outrageously high since he trade, it is due to drop a bit.

    Still, gotta be better in the middle of a pennant race.

    Kazmir hasn't been bad here but he's definitely lost some offseason money so far.
