Guys, what are we thinking for this 4 game series with the A's?
Game 1: Gray vs. Ventura - Ventura can be such a question mark, that I think this game is a coinflip. Although he is my favorite pitcher to watch because when he's on, boy howdy is he on! And we just used Davis and Holland yesterday, so we'll have Herrera and......Crow? Downs? if Ventura has to be pulled early.
Game 2: Lester vs. Guthrie - Don't see it happening, friends. Which makes me extra sad because ERII and I were tossing around the idea of going to the game tomorrow. Maybe we'll hit up the casinos instead. I wouldn't be able to handle it if we lost the only 2 games I went to this year.
Game 3: Kazmir vs. Vargas - Kazmir? More like cashmere because this guy is soft. And Vargas is probably still pretty rested, right? Royals by 20.
Game 4: Samardzija vs. Shields - Shields is back to great form. He is extra focused because of our position in the division and the potential to make the playoffs. He tosses around the idea of throwing a no hitter, and decides in the end to give up a couple of hits. Royals win.
So we're looking at 2-2 with a shot at 3-1 if you ask me. If we go 2-2, will you be content? It's the best MLB team vs. the hottest for the next four days. It's the best baseball the MLB will see this season, and us people on this board right here will be the most excited for it. How much luckier could we (as fans, not as a team) be?
