The Oakland Athletics 2018 Offseason Season Thread | One and Done Again

Damn so what next? Jack London?

No one knows. Kaval reportedly told Oakland officials there's no Plan B after Merritt.

I would guess A's default to Coliseum site or begin national search to leave Oakland.

Just like Lew Wolffs plan b..... just build a new ballpark on the current ****** site.

 

[DB Cooper]

Just read the report. How come no one wants us man?

 

[urb]

That spot wasn't too appealing to me but it was an upgrade (pretty much anything is) from where it is now. I'm all in for Jack London.

 

[GreenNGold89]

So frustrating. I’d love Jack London but it’s going to take even longer.

As long as it’s in Oakland, I’ll take it.

Brandon Moss sent down for assignment. Damn, I feel like management straight trolled this dude. He was so excited about being back. Got 1 look at him and said, nah.

Should have been Mark Cahna not Moss. He would have been a good power bat off the bench. Have no idea why they keep hanging on to Canha. It's like keeping around Daric Barton year after year.

 

[GreenNGold89]

Moss knew he had very little chance to make the roster.

Krush davis already with his 1st today!

trout going 0-6, krush knockin one out the park, walk off by marcus...today was was a good day

 

[DB Cooper]

I didn't check the final numbers, but Trout went 0-6? Didn't see that coming.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Great win for us yesterday. Hopefully we can keep it going.

I have the Treehouse pass and had the day off yesterday.... but spent the day packing up the apartment for a move

 

[moe200069]

I didn't check the final numbers, but Trout went 0-6? Didn't see that coming.

Let’s hope the law of averages doesn’t work itself out tonight..i might be recalling this wrong but last time the A’s pitched him this well the next night he came out and batted like .800 with a home run

 

[DB Cooper]

Sean Manaea's pitching tonight, so I got a bad feeling that history might repeat itself.

 

[DB Cooper]

Welp, he didn't bat .800, but he was the difference maker. Wasted a gem of an outing by Sean.

 

[Jandro707]

Kole Calhoun always does damage against us. Good to see Manaea shut him down. Although he still hurt us with a great diving catch he made.

 

[DB Cooper]

We're getting smacked around today...

 

[DB Cooper]

Yes he does. Reminds me of Garret Anderson or Tim Salmon. Those guys used to give our pitchers nightmares.

 

[moe200069]

Defense was horrendous today from the damn jump..tupac said it best, some things just never change

 

[Jandro707]

Only top of 2nd and A's defense a joke. Ball bounces off Kris Davis glove. Short blooper that no one calls for. Gonna be a long game.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Defense has been trash since Washington left. Unfortunately it seems like it’s something Bob hasn’t been able to improve on with us in his tenure.

 

[Deleted member 37754]

Got weekday season tickets, I'll be there Monday - Wednesday if anyone else is going.

 

[GreenNGold89]

Defense in the outfield is trash, infield imo is much better with Chapman and Olson. Starting pitching is garbage tho.

Went on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I’ll be there Tuesday also.

 

[Deleted member 37754]

Outfield is soooo bad...
