THREE Questions:
- Ervin Santana found his magic mouthguard to get him back on track, what trinket can we give Joe Saunders to snap him out of his funk? I’m thinking he needs a nose ring, no?
- Is it a coincidence that when the Angels had a middle infield combo of Orlando Cabrera and Adam Kennedy they missed the playoffs and now the A’s have that same combo and are dead last in the AL West?
- When the A’s get their new stadium will it have a capacity of 7,000 so they can actually have some sellouts for a change?
TWO Predictions:
- Kendry Morales’ hitting streak will survive the weekend.
- My patience for Robb Quinlan as the starting leftfielder will not survive the weekend.
ONE Wish:
- I wish for the Angels to pull off the four-game sweep. Even though Oakland blows this year, they are still the Angels’ most-hated rivals in my eyes and I will never get tired of watching the Angels beat them down.
ZERO Tolerance for… anymore of Justin Speier pitching with a lead and by pitching with a lead I mean blowing a lead.
