I'm very bad at hitting. I'm not patient enough yet. And I've cost myself at least 3 more runs by stupid base running. And likely at least 1 win.

The A's are 14-21 at moment and last in the AL west. As the season progresses, I'm probably going to unload McCarthy for as good a prospect as I can get. I haven't made up my mind on Fuentes/Crisp/Suzuki yet. They all have another year on their deals, but I want to get bang for my buck so I can field a more competitive team as soon as possible which currently looks to be 2014.
Yeah, the A's are challenging to play as because they have a lack of hitters honestly. The pitching is alright (but the trades of Gio and Trevor really thinned them out in the rotation.) The A's aren't playing all that well in my franchise with the Tigers. They sit at the bottom of the AL West 3 games back of the 3rd place...Angels? Yes! The Mariners have started off pretty well and are a mere 1/2 game behind Texas for the lead in the AL West.
