    Don't let facts get in the way of pure speculation.

    0-4? Unmotivated piece of ish that needs to actually love the game.

    Just to clarify, you are calling Carlos Correa a piece of sh*t?

    A's are just a solid team. Astros at full strength should still be expected to win the division over them but they look like a major threat for years to come.

    Ugh. Just like that it's all gone, and then some. The Biscuit (Piscotty, because his name sounds like Biscotti) really loves to hit against us.

    Damn what an unlucky inning. Two ground ball hits, followed by a missed call on a base runner being hit, a drop acrobatic catch and ball barley fair.

    Best not throw a lot of $$ at Dallas. He is not worth it. He has to have a generous umpire or he tosses grapefruits.

    I got spoiled early in the season by our pitching. Now that things have evened out, the offense has to score a lot and often against the better teams for us to win.

    Sarcasm from me, but others actually believe that he is not motivated.

    I know Altuve wants so much to help the team, get big hits, etc. but his approach at times is horrible. Just horrible. Way too anxious and impatient.

    I'm not sure what's more annoying......watching our guys stare at 3rd strikes down the pipe, or just this entire Oakland team in general.

    I'd start limiting JV's innings so that he feels good and strong for that wild card game in New York.
