The A's traded for all these pitchers. What pitching?! Jeff Samardzija is pretty damn average, Jason Hammel is God doo doo awful, and Jon Lester is the only one that's doing his thing. Scott Kazmir and Sonny Gray has also been pretty awful as well, but not as Jason Hammel God doo doo awful.

Jeff Samardzija is average? Based on what?

Huge sweep for the Braves, and it'll be even bigger if Mike Minor is finally back to his old self. We're back in the wildcard race and will hopefully be able to gain some ground on the Nats before we play them head to head again.

HUGE SWEEP. The Braves played the A's at the perfect time because we are downright awful right now. We can't hit, our fielding has been awful all year long, and our pitching is overrated.

David Ortiz has got to be the most annoying baseball player. If he's not hitting walkoff homeruns against your team, he's either jogging out a ground out or pop up, or complaining about a strike. Get over yourself.

Cheat, flip bats, admire HRs.

Not bad for a dude who expects the utmost respect from every opponent he faces.

Three straight walk off wins. Unreal.

Now if only we could find a closer. Seems like it doesn't matter who we have, when they pitch the 9th they gag it up.

Justin Upton had 5 RBI tonight to move into third in the NL in RBI, he hit his 24th HR to move into third in HR's also.

If we get to the playoffs I hope we face the Nats.
