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

Verlander has been horrible all year. If he is out for an extended time, Detroit will be fine.

Not in the playoffs. They need his location and demeanor on the mound. Price and Scherzer doesn't get it done for them I think.

Without him and Sanchez????

 

[GreenNGold89]

Forgot about Sanchez.

And yes I agree that I wouldn't trust Price in a big game. But when it comes to the regular season, there is still a lot of baseball left and the Royals have to prove they are here to stay before they become the favorites to win that division.

Price is 1-4 in the postseason. Only win came in '08.

Plus Procello has to come back to earth, right?


Also I wonder if the new biogenesis list will come out before the playoffs

 

[bronconation24]

I have a feeling we might see the royals in the post season

 

[hadowajp]

I'm with you man hopefully the big stage proves to much for them

Now that there are expectations, I don't know how I'm going to handle playoffs. I can't go to a bar and drink my sorrows away in the middle of the day anymore either.

 

[hadowajp]

^^^this

I'm thinking about getting 4 seats for the playoffs this year so they better go deep or win it all

 

[DB Cooper]

20 hits, 11 runs! Now that's what I like to see!

 

[GreenNGold89]

Can't believe we have back to back sunday night games coming up.

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Yeah, I don't like it.

 

[GreenNGold89]

Why?

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

Why?

I like us better under the radar. I realize that's somewhat impossible when you're the best team in baseball, but I don't think attention has ever been good for this team with Billy Beane in charge.

Or maybe it's what they need now to adjust for the playoffs. I don't know.

 

[GreenNGold89]

I know what you mean but we have been under the radar the past couple years and it hasn't worked. I don't know if being in the spotlight will help or hurt this team but it is time to find out.

 

[bronconation24]

Does abyone know if tommorows game is blacked out?

 

[Johnny_Cakes]

If we play like we did today then I hope so.

 

[hadowajp]

It is

Playoff tickets copped... sec 120

 

[GreenNGold89]

Have your tickets shown up in your account? I got the confirmation email but nothing in my account yet.

I got 218, was hoping for 217 but it kept giving me issues. Also, I wanted 4 seats but went with 2 because I didn't want to drop $5K right now.

No they haven't shown up yet

I tried to go back in and grab another two seats but it won't let me so two it is $2825 was to much anyway

Problem with getting extra seats is not getting my money back until December (won't be an issue this season with is winning the world series I wouldn't get any back anyway)

 

[bronconation24]

Our offense is just... I don't even know

 

[GreenNGold89]

Yeah I bought 2 and thought about going back to buy 2 cheaper ones but it wouldn't let me.

Hot and cold
Inconsistent
Trash
GreenNGold89 yup I tried to do the same
