    Hope Dusty doesn’t choke on his toothpick watching Diaz getting a hit off a lefty. And straighten out Brown today too.

    Dusty: “I am trying Maldy with JP France to see if he can extend him out a bit”

    Also Dusty: “Hunter Brown with 78 pitches and a no-hitter with Diaz catching, I better pull him to save him”

    pitching was suspect in both games. Ergo, Maldy

    Hopefully confidence boost for him and before anyone says well it's Oakland, don't forget the pitchers had trouble the last 2 games.

    So I guess Diaz is the new pitcher whisperer then?

    Pena sure gets picked off a lot. He can't read the pitcher for ****.

    If we don't have a baserunning coach, there needs to be one ASAP. What's Rickey Henderson doing these days?

    there has been been evidence that he has been the better pitcher whisperer for a while now... but Dusty likes to pretend otherwise

    Tuve has had some very iffy baserunning but he's actually been great swiping bases this season. Only caught stealing twice in 15 tries. Meanwhile Pena has been caught 8 times in 19 tries.
