There is no team whose next two weeks will be more interesting than the A's. Straily is ready, but who does he replace in the rotation? Parker, Milone, Blackley, and Griffin have been excellent, so even subtracting Colon leaves them with one slot, with McCarthy, Anderson, and Braden all waiting in the wings, about to start rehab assignments.
Assuming they are also buyers, they need help on the left side of the IF, is a pitcher for Yunel Escobar a move? Todd Frazier? It ain't easy to find bats out there.

Did you stay up for the #weirdbaseball, Kevin?

The winning pitcher in this game was 1B Scott Savastono, who also hit a walk-off homer.

On Straily, how'd this happen? What happened between 2010-2011, or between last year (when he was good, but not dominant) and this year (dominant)?

Also, what grade would you give Hultzen's command overall? I'm still trying to understand why it comes and goes as much as it has.
