Gander,to be honest,the A's pitching(right now) is too tough for us to beat them the way we need to.Just too good.Like White Sox last year in the post.I don't care who you are,you weren't gunna hit Haren on Monday in the 8th,or 9th inning.Same goes for Street yesterday.Will they pitch that way late in September? I hope not.I know they have an achilles heel.That is those 2 peas in the pod called Bradley and Payton.THOSE TWO ARE HAVING TANTRUMS WHILE:
1)They are each hitting well.
2)The team is winning.
O.K.? They fly right off the handle (with Black Rage) at the slightest stimuli.Neither one is particularly thrilled with White folks.They each have a huge chip on their shoulder.Now,picture them going into personal hitting slumps,and the team losing 4 in a row.I can tell you exactly what will happen.They will eat their own.Mark my words,these 2 are gunna be a problem in their own clubhouse (sooner or later.)The Halo organization would never put up with those 2.The A's took a big gamble on those 2 behaving,but hope is often an immature emotion,and these 2 guys just react like wild animals.There is little self-control involved.
