I’m getting a bit optimistic about the offense lately
I'm wanting to , but I'm waiting to see what we do against Pablo Lopez and Joe Ryan.

let's package Helsley and Jordan Walker to the A's. They spent a lot of money this offseason, they seem to want to compete...or at least show better than have in recent years. I want Nick Kurtz and w/e lottery ticket DSL player they want to throw in...and $500K in IFA money

They won't keep Helsley, but they can QO him, if we complete the trade before the season starts for both teams

Helsley and Miller would be a formidable backend.

and they can always turn around and trade him, if they're out of it come July. I just want Nick Kurtz. Let Kurtz man RF while Contreras is still under contract and manning 1B

Romero preserves his spotless spring.

Hope we don't burn him out in April/May like last year with 26 appearances in the first 51 games.

Paige has a 3.000 OPS. Does he make the 26-man roster?

Great job by Oli, keep the pressure on the kid by hitting him leadoff instead of dropping him to #8/9 where he MIGHT feel less pressure.

Can't wait for this clown to be fired.
Lol. Reminds me of you excusing Oldys sucking due to the spot in the batting order, and the weather not being warm
