Jerry it’s time. No more band aid trades trying to pull a rabbit out of a hat. Go get a real bat and recognize its going to cost prospects. If it’s Vlad and it costs Montez and change so be it. If it’s Robert or Jimenez and costs prospects so be it. I wouldn’t give our best prospects for a one year ...

I wouldn’t be surprised that when we add a bat we jettison Zavala and take our chances with Garver

Biggest thing I notice is we are taking first pitch strikes and then doing a lot of chasing while they are all over first pitch strikes

Moore has earned the right to be in the lineup when Crawdaddy returns.

I repeat myself but we have to lead the league in tens of swings and misses on balls out of the strike zone. There’s a reason for that Jerry. Hint: Garver and Urias are correctable errors

Can any of you stat guru’s do your thing and determine what percentage of our swings and misses come on balls out of the strike zone. Driving me nuts

A's starter Wood just sucks. So we all know what is going to happen right?

I wonder if Vegas has a prop bet on Julio making contact

Good Lord. Jerry is not stupid and has to recognize that he has to change our hitting dynamic simply because it is awful. The problem with waiting until the trade deadline is that a lot of teams enter the mix. Time to make a move as we have the resources to do so.

It sure looks to me like we are in dire need of a consistent bat to jump start what should be a better offense than we have seen.

The difference in this game is not striking out and putting the ball in play. 12 K’s and an inning left to play
