I count five people complaining about pulling him too late.  They had to wait for Wood to warm up.  The announcers even commented how long it was taking Wood to warm up.

Mound visit, throw over to first a few times to buy a few more minutes. Dude should have been gone after he walked the batter after serving up the 3-run HR.

10 run inning coming up

[Jwhitt33]

On positive note I love seeing valbuena taking two free passes in a single game.

[Jwhitt33]

Lol

[bloodbrother]

Martin Maldonujols

[Waybackman]

If the one bright spot in this year's rotation turns out to be a flash in the pan ...well, it's over.

[Jwhitt33]

Thats fuckin sad.

[Waybackman]

Cowart is a ground out specialist.

He's making eligrba4ever look like genius every at bat now.

Martin is overworked. He leads the majors with catchers with the most games played this season.

No championship team I've ever seen has given up so many runs during the season.

lol no one ever said this was a championship team.

Many of us hope they make the playoffs, but we know they wont get very far.

[Waybackman]

Hard to find fault with Maldonado. He has been a real bright spot for this team.

No championship team has given up as many runs as a team not even in the lead for a wild card berth? 

That's not hard to believe.

That's one long leash, 7 runs with no outs?

I'd hate to be walking by sosh's yard if he owns a pit bull.

Top of the fourth and we're down 2 runs no lead to protect  ... he has also been out most consistent pitcher of late. There's not a manager in baseball that would of pulled him with the 8th & 9th batters due up. 

You just can't pull your starters everyday after a few innings during the regular season. 

[Jwhitt33]

Shut em up albert

[Waybackman]

What a weird game. 

[Angel Dog and Beer]

Machine got an oil change. 

[eligrba4ever]

612!!!

A's lead cut to 8-5!!!

[JarsOfClay]

This must be one of those games where he looks like the St Louis Pujols, then goes 0 for his next 30.

[Waybackman]

Then there's Calhoun

[Waybackman]

Must get to their bullpen.

[eligrba4ever]

Awww, Luis. Was hoping for a bomb right there. Not a strikeout;.
