    What voodoo curse is Springer enduring? Whatever injury he has didn't seem as serious as his DNPs suggest

    Series victory would've been great, but Qualls is OAK's beeeatch. Four blow saves all season, 3 of which is vs OAK. And not just 1 or 2 runs surrendered. Chad allowed 6 and 3runs in 2 of those losses. Qualls 3is truly serving the A's.

    Springer has a strained quad. It's no joke of an injury and is very easy to aggravate. You have to make sure it's 100% before you start working again or it will come back worse.

    Third blown safe against OAK... out of four blown. Just uncanny.

    The A's love facing Qualls late......

    I didn't want to post last night, couldn't get that bad taste out of my mouth (HR out of my mind...).

    But Carter! Wow. I'm loving this ride, so much fun to watch.

    Happens.

    Dave Smith was an all-star in 1986, yet he faced the Mets 5 times: 3 Blown Saves, a loss in a tie game, and 3ER in .1 IP in the other game).

    5 Appearances
    5 IP
    7 ER

    Dude has so much power.

    Hands can stay quiet and travel through the box and cause problems.
