DMac Update from yahoo sports:
"Third baseman Dallas McPherson, meanwhile, is doing limited baseball activities as he recovers from a sore groin.
McPherson said he is running fine, but he is in the process of seeing how he feels in all-out sprints.
In a camp where he has been hampered by an oblique and now a groin problem, McPherson likely will open the season at Triple-A Albuquerque."
Acuda, I replied to you since you are one of the only others (besides me) who cares about what McPherson does. He has only one hit in ST, that one HR he hit. Only 15AB's.

My Picks
10 Ks for Angel pitchers
3 ks for Harden
The Angels will get at least two HR today: GA and Rivera

Curfew?
That's lame. The A's have to catch a plane to Japan so there's a curfew. Terry said they might not get 9 innings in.
ReggieBullits - March 19, 2008
Ervs looks (sounds) good
Retired 6 in a row.
ReggieBullits - March 19, 2008
Ass get a leadoff triple
but Santana strikes out the next two, and gets out of the inning with a popout (after allowing a walk). No runs. No score through 4.

SORRY FOR THE TIME SCREWUP, FOLKS
Athletics are on a serious curfew for their Japan trip...
Rev Halofan - March 19, 2008
My gameday audio don't work today either...
This is a baseball bad hair day.
44FAN - March 19, 2008
it's working for me
But i'm using the old configuration, not silverlight.
jtkelly86 - March 19, 2008
Seems like Ervin is doing well
2 BB's, 1H and 4 SO's so far... but no (E)R's :-)
infant - March 19, 2008
2-0 Halos
heading to the bottom of the 6th. I didn't hear how the first run scored (Matthews drove in Aybar, somehow). Second run scores after a pair of doubles (Kotchman, followed by Kendrick) and a Sac fly by Bobby Wilson (Kotch was too slow to score from 2nd on Howie's double, especially after he mis-read the ball).
jjackflash - March 19, 2008
Whenever hud and terry are in the booth
we need to start making pre-game guesses for how many times terry gives a blank reply to Hud's statements or cuts him off during meaningless stories. Hud is awful yet i can never stop listening to him.
jtkelly86 - March 19, 2008
That sure sounds professional
of Terry.
shiftyeyedgoat - March 19, 2008
Ervin!
El Meneo goes six innings. No runs. Halos still up 2-0.

Loves to call those shots.

dang!!
i always miss those things. :(
stupid work.
howiestheman - March 19, 2008
Has Terry or Hud provided any update on the Milwaukee game?
SoCalWine - March 19, 2008
I can't tell by looking at the A's lineup if these guys are their regulars or not
Anyone know?
SoCalWine - March 19, 2008
Neither could a die-hard A's fan...

GMJ has FOUR HITS today?
whoa!
Downing Rules - March 19, 2008
Santana Kicks Ass ...
During a road day game! Alert the media!
Solid outing for the young man.
Downing Rules - March 19, 2008
Shields...
Sounds like he just can't get it together.
Wytelitning - March 19, 2008
Gameday slow...
I don't think, though, that Shields gave up a run, did he? MLB's main page now says top 9 and it is still ZERO for the A's.
Downing Rules - March 19, 2008
Yes
he did. It was in a minor league game. Terry & Hud were talking about it. Apparently, he was very wild.
jjackflash - March 19, 2008
Ah, thanks for that...
Didn't realize that there was another game going on.
Downing Rules - March 19, 2008
Terry said...
He had another bad outing today against the Giants minor league squad. Hopefully its just mechanics and he can get it straightened out soon.
Wytelitning - March 19, 2008
cool. thank you.
Downing Rules - March 19, 2008
Erick Aybar ...
with 2 SB's! I think he is about to win the starting job, eh?
Downing Rules - March 19, 2008

one of the more overlooked things this spring: matthews is playing pretty well. whether or not that means anything is up for debate, but its good to see him contributing and be free of all the distractions of last year.
heres to hoping he is a solid #2 hitter in front of vlad
ihearhowie2.0 - March 19, 2008
He's gonna...
have a monster year by our standards based on the simple fact that he will see alot of fastballs. That spot made Cabrera look like an above average hitter.
I really want to see what HK47 could do there, his numbers would be scary.
Wytelitning - March 19, 2008
i completely agree
Howie would be very scary in the 2 slot. can you imagine all of the hits?
howiestheman - March 19, 2008
eh
i always say this, but howie doesnt walk. youd like someone with high OBP hitting #2 and while matthews hit for a shitty average last year (in the 4 and 5 spots), he can walk and was doing so a lot when he was at the top of the order.
howie i believe leads the team in ABs this spring and has 1 walk.
unless his average is ridiculous, his OBP will never be THAT great. I see him as a run producer, not as a table setter
ihearhowie2.0 - March 19, 2008
so where do you see him in the lineup?
at number 3?
he needs to be toward the top of the lineup, that much i know.
