I'm still in pain...

Seriously. How tf are A's fans suppose to enjoy this next season

Just makes no sense after halfway thru the season we picked up Marte, Harrison.. made some nice pickups.

Just missed the playoffs and now we are completely blowing it all up

Them resale tickets gonna be cheap as fukk hopefully they bring back 50% off concession days again, because there’s no other reason to see them play next year

Correa on the Yankees seems like it would be an egregious overpay for him. We need a SS, but I think we would be better off with Trevor Story. Carlos should go to Detroit

 

[THASTUNNA]

I'm surprised Houston hasn't been linked to Max.

They don't want to go over the luxury tax.

Chris Taylor is looking more appealing and better option. SS/CF

The 1977 AL Cy Young award might be one of the great robberies in baseball history.

Sparky Lyle of the Yankees won it going 13-5 with a 2.17 ERA in 137 innings (72 appearances)
The 1977 Yankees went 100-62 and won the World Series. A great season all around.

And candidly, using a your best reliever for 137 innings is, in my opinion, a better way to use your reliever than limiting him to 1 inning for something stupid like a "Save".
That said, he did not deserve the Cy Young.

That season, Jim Palmer went 20-11 with a 2.91 ERA across 319 innings with 22 complete games.
Nolan Ryan went 19-16 with a 2.77 ERA across 299 innings with 22 complete games.... and struck out 341 batters -- a strikeout feat so rare that the only person who beat it in the years since is Randy Johnson (1999, 2000, 2001).

Want another insane stat about Ryan that year?
Ryan walked 204 batters. Palmer walked 99. And somehow Palmer allowed more earned runs than Ryan did that year (92 to 103).

Who the hell walks 204 batters in a season? It was a different era

Seager supposedly tryin to sign today , dodgers or rangers

 

[VegetasHairline]

Give Kevin Gausman $110 million, brehs!

 

[The War Report]

Judge too much in his feelings for the Yankees to entertain Correa at this point.


This team is really delusional about where they stand. They're so far away from Tampa, Boston and Toronto and they don't even know it

They really should blow it up. This roster ain’t winning shyt.

Son is ass. Goddamn what a time to be a mediocre baseball player. Why couldn’t god bless me
