If Bobby comes up in any meaningful spot they are pinch hitting for him.
At this point I almost perversely want him to get enough chances to hit a 50% strikeout rate over his last X at bats (he is at 47% now over the last 125).

Question: would the A’s make more money with free admission and just making more on concessions with the increased crowd size?

I like a nice bleday. Especially the ones that use warm water. Not sure why they haven’t caught on here. 200 million Japanese can’t all be wrong.

My guess: Abreu to RF, Duran to CF, O'Neill to LF, Rafaela to 2B, Reyes to 1B.

Losing the DH in the 6th would be awkward.

He’s going to have extended sub-Mendoza streaks this season. I don’t see any way he doesn’t. Swings at everything.
The approach is made all the more frustrating when you see his swing - he’s seemingly short to the ball with good swing speed

Six defensive changes for one ph is a pretty telling indicator that your roster construction leaves something to be desired.
