Another hit batter - Isn’t it time for old school Dusty to order the Code Red?

[Mo Horn 8853]

Tucker back to his old ways. 

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

YORDAN!!!!!!!!!!

[Scraps 13570]

I love Yordan

[Mo Horn 8853]

Yordan

[cabowabo 4492]

Damn, sounded like a gunshot. 

[Gourmand 7774]

Pujols 2.0

[maninblack 7974]

[Smax 3800]

Asking my section if they heard the trashcan bangs for that one, silence..

Big bang for sure...when it hit the wall in left center.

[DaysOff 7965]

Thank God uncle Mike

[cabowabo 4492]

Carlos trade value going down. 

[Smax 3800]

Bregs would have made that throw, here with an LSU grad, not happy with his sitting

[HoustonFrog 368]

If this team stays even remotely healthy, they are going to be a WS contender. Especially if Verlander gets his shit together and rehabs early

Yordan bomb has to soothe the feelings a little bit, no?

so now we're trying to reason with an lsu grad?

[HtownHorn 14758]

Really I don't mind if Diaz just hits where ever in the lineup with the guy he's replaced.

There are likely only 2 negs on this lineup in Straw and the catching platoon. The other 7 guys can probably hit anywhere in the lineup and it not be a big problem, though I would lean towards Altuve, Brantley and Bregman getting the most ABs when healthy.

Tell him Bregman needs to stay healthy.

[Scraps 13570]

It made total sense to just plug and play Diaz and not revamp the whole lineup in game 3 of the season...especially how the first 2 went....but people always freak out about shit

Also perfect lineup construction versus worst conceivable order is worth a couple wins over the season. As long as Dusty doesn’t invert the lineup I would suggest we will be ok.

Hoobastanek 

[HtownHorn 14758]

That's how you do it Stanek. Hit a guy, get the next guy to ground it back to you for a double play, and a 1st pitch pop out to the catcher.

[Guest]

Stanek fighting like he's at Blackwater Bay...

[Guest]

there ya go Carlos.

Fuck these A's fans...

[Mez2 4025]

Good news about uncle Mike, fucking bullshit otherwise though. We should throw in their dugout 

[runthebone 8027]

Get it together, Enoli.

[Scraps 13570]

Next

[Seasick Sailor 3747]

not great. 

[Mo Horn 8853]

EP doing his part to let them back in the game. 

[Guest]

just a little grounder...DP

[elfenix 34331]

you 5000 A's fans can sit back down

[Guest]

Raley...

[HtownHorn 14758]

Paredes going to struggle to maintain his spot once everyone gets healthy if he keeps allowing baserunners in every outing.

[Guadaloopy 10996]

Chas!

agree with announcers.  I thought it was HR when he hit it.

For christ's sake, Dusty...just because Diaz is taking Bregman's place in the lineup doesn't mean he has to bat 3rd.

Give your best hitter the most opportunities to hit. Why is this seemingly so difficult to comprehend?

Ok I'll shut the fuck up about the batting order. 

[henrygandorf 29194]

trust the dust.

[Guadaloopy 10996]

Sparky earlier: “A couple of confused A’s fans keep rooting for Jeter. “

[TonyTexas 10520]

At least one Houston team is beating up its opponent dressed in green and gold.

[Guadaloopy 10996]

Another 8 spot.  Love it.
