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

This team has a great record and I don’t mean to be a downer but their holes are what is going to cost them in the postseason if they don’t work on it.

They need to learn to put the ball in play. You ain’t hitting jacks everyday in the postseason. Make some damn contact sometimes.

I hate you guys.

My heart man...

Every time I talk ****, they do this. :lol:

I don’t think it’s sustainable but I’ll enjoy it for now.

This teams inability to get runners in from 3rd and less than 2 outs drives me crazy.

ICE CITY CF · Aug 25, 2020

Thought this was both amusing and interesting. :lol

It hurts but it makes sense. He hasn’t looked the same this year offensively or defensively. Need Olson to keep playing better and I think the X factor is Marcus. He hasn’t looked the same, not sure if he’s hurt or what but he needs to step up with Chap out.

DB Cooper · Sep 12, 2020

Really liking the Tommy La Stella acquisition. Been contributing nicely.

DB Cooper · Sep 19, 2020

Playoff bound! Next comes the Division. :pimp:

GreenNGold89 · Sep 28, 2020

Not feeling good about this team at all, really hope the offense somehow wakes up. Olson and Marcus have been so disappointing.

Hope we can get enough offense and the starters can hold it down to get to the bullpen. White Sox have a lot of pop so going to need to get some some swings and misses.

Need Luzard and Bassitt to have great games.

sighh different post season, same result

he's been underwhelming but at this point, put in Khrush for game 2

ICE CITY CF · Oct 1, 2020

What a bizarre game.

DB Cooper · Oct 1, 2020

Caught him looking to advance!

GreenNGold89 · Oct 1, 2020

Man, what a stressful ******* game. I don't even care if it's not a real first round, feels good to finally win a damn series.

Excited for the Astro's series. Olson, wake the **** up please!

Khrush's AB's look a lot better. I've been against playing him for the most part this year but I'm on board now. He's taking the ball to opposite field a lot more.

yalll, when we went down 3-0 early..i thought it was was reynolds wrap for this squad.

THAT RESILIENCE! from Oakland F's to Oakland A's! **** the astros!

Same. This team gets so deflated when they get behind early. I thought we missed our chance to set the tone in that 2nd inning with runners at the corners and only 1 out. Hope this gives them confidence going into the next series.
