Today’s grab bag of talking points comes after the A’s squeaked out a 2-1 win over the streaky Cubs. A good and important win, if frustrating because the A’s faced a flammable SP and had to eek out a victory by the seat of their pants. But they did so all is well for a […]

The pitching - well it's not very good but we can't just go ahead and make assumptions that it'll stay that way. Maybe it will get better! (or worse!) About a month ago I looked at the starters and tried to figure out who was "real" there. I said Irvin could be a poor innings eater and Litell really was bad. Well May has not been kind to Irvin. He might have broke. On the other hand Litell looked much better. I said I didn't know about Miles and I still don't. Mikolas h...
