May 8, 200521 yr Yay. They shutout one of the worst offenses in baseball. Good job. 767077[/snapback] One of the worst offense in baseball?? Oakland is a *gasp* MONEYBALL SYSTEM!!! Could it be that Billy's system isn't foolproof after all? :mischief 767095[/snapback] *gasp* One of the worst offenses so far. They should pick it up soon. They have a couple hitters that are way below their career averages (Chavez and Kendall). They are also hitting near the Mendoza line with men in scoring position. Billy will soon have one of his purges and the team will start hitting. The A's always start the season off slow. Moneyball isn't foolproof...no system is foolproof, it's just another way or running a team.

May 15, 200521 yr Author What is their record after this thread was created? Talk about reverse jinx. Cashman should send me a check
May 17, 200521 yr Call me when they are above .500... 769625[/snapback] *Gets out Craig's number* 774526[/snapback] :lol :lol :lol I figured they'd make it to .500......around the 4th of July.... I didn't notice they had a streak here where they don't play anybody. Robinson Canoe or w/e his name is won't keep hitting like this, Tino wasn't this good in 1997, let alone 2005, and their pitching still sucks. They are a wild card team, at best....

Lets see if we can roll off 10 more and make it to the ALCS now!

May 18, 200521 yr Giambi impressed me last night. 3-4 with a bunch of doubles and a HR (off a lefty no less). Let's see if he can keep it up.
May 18, 200521 yr Author Call me when they are above .500... 769625[/snapback] *Gets out Craig's number* 774526[/snapback] :owned j/k Craig :thumbup
