| Should Justin Duchscherer Start the All-Star Game? |
| 2008-07-02 13:42:00 |
Justin Duchscherer battling an injury earlier in the season, finally is eligible to have enough innings under his belt to lead the American league in ERA at only 1.91. Arguments could be made for other pictures, since Justin has a 8-5 record and he hasn’t pitched as many innings as other pitchers. On [...]...

| Chavez back on DL |
| 2008-07-02 13:35:52 |
Looks like that shoulder problem he had surgery for hasn’t been fixed and is causing him a problem forcing him on the 15 DL today. You can read about it here. Lets hope they can fix it this time and put this behind him for good....

| Fremonth Athletics BallPark Update |
| 2008-05-11 23:12:58 |
It’s been a few months since I updated the latest on the situation of the A’s new ballpark in Fremont. It was starting to look like the stadium might be open on 2010 or 2011, but now according to a more recent article here, it looks like its most likely to be 2012. [...]...

| Big Hurt Coming back to Oakland |
| 2008-04-24 15:46:54 |
If you haven’t heard, Frank Thomas was released on Sunday by the Blue Jays. After rumours and A’s management keeping a tight lip, it was announced finally that he was signed by the A’s for $337,000. It is pro-rated based on the minimum $390,000 you must pay MLB players for a full season. [...]...

| Does The Dan Harren Trade Mean No Barry Bonds Acquisition? |
| 2007-12-15 23:06:46 |
We have previously talked about the chances of Bonds coming to Oakland here. A lot of people argued that if Harren was traded then it would be a slim chance Bonds will get signed. Well a couple days ago Harren in fact was traded. The A’s will be using the trade to [...]...

| A’s Getting Closer to Fremont Ballpark Deal |
| 2007-12-01 14:37:35 |
The A’s a couples week ago submitted their official proposal to the city of Fremont to build a new ballpark there. You can read the story here
The Fremont deal is not a for sure thing, we’re talking at least a year before it could get official approval by the city. If everything goes [...]...

| Could Bonds end up on the A’s? |
| 2007-09-28 01:41:15 |
Well the A’s have had a dissapointing season plagued with injuries. It’s time to wrap up my writing for this season, by talking about the hottest potential free agent on the market this year for the A’s. I know some may not want Bonds to go to Oakland, but as a bay [...]...

| September Coming: Where do A’s Stand? |
| 2007-08-25 18:11:29 |
With September approaching, now it’s time to analyze realistically, what the A’s chances of being in the playoffs. It was great to see the A’s in a 5 game hit streak, but just like the Giants, it just got snapped with a loss. I usually don’t pay too much attention to the standings, [...]...

| Milton Bradley Speaks out |
| 2007-08-09 21:01:16 |
Milton Bradley raises some interesting discussions. Here is the news article
If anyone remembers Milton Bradleys outrageous temper tantrum on the L.A Dodges before being traded to the A’s, I was always wondering how long Bradley would last on a team like the A’s. Bradley’s comments aside, the A’s have always been pretty fickle [...]...

| No Trades |
| 2007-08-01 13:42:13 |
Well the tradeline is over with and no one was traded before the deadline. However, outfielder Bobby Kielty was released. He only had a .200 batting average for 13 games this season, due to his long stint on the DL. I think because the A’s are not in close contention on the [...]...

| A’s lose again… |
| 2007-07-16 14:00:48 |
Another dissapointing loss again making it their 7th loss in a row. I can’t help, but wonder if they caught the “Giants bug” from across the bay to cause these series of losses.
In all seriousness, the A’s are quickly losing time to get their act together. Right after the All-star break [...]...

| Harden back to disabled list |
| 2007-07-13 03:05:30 |
News store
It seems like the prognosis for the rest of this season for Harden doesn’t look too bright to me, since these symptoms are a flareup from his earlier time on the DL. With the A’s losing record they really don’t have a lot of time left in the season to be able to [...]...

Yes, Thomas is back in Oakland…. to play as a Blue Jay of course! A’s were in lead 2-1 until the 3rd inning when Frank Thomas came in and hit a grounder to score a runner from scoring position to tie the game. This seemed to be a catalyst and turned [...]...

| 2007 A.L Cy Young: Dan Harren? |
| 2007-06-28 22:15:50 |
I think it’s possible that Dan harren may get the 2007 A.L Cy Young award this year. He has the best E.R.A in the majors. He so far has not had any game with more then 3 runs allowed, the true definition of an ace in my opinion. His win to loss [...]...
