60-65M from what starting point? Ha. He didn't specify, but let's pretend he meant to spend in free agency, not on free agents and retaining arb eligible players. Thank you Mr. Arguello.
He was also asked not to play too hard on defense in college because he they wanted him using all his energy on offense and they didn't want him getting in foul trouble. Like Michael Wacha of basketball. I don't get the reference. plz explain. Wacha had really mediocre stats in AAA and then pwned in the majors, allegedly because the Cardinals had him doing stuff in the minors that wasn't pitching his best.

Seeing as how the annoying Giants fan I know was ripping the A's for fielding "beer league" teams who botch key plays, that could have been so glorious. Still might be.
Not that it really matters, but I'm second guessing myself whether this is even a save situation. Since the starter didn't go 5 innings, would Affeldt get the win and Bumgarner the save? Or would Bumgarner simply get the win? Scorer's discretion.
He showed you. he showed you or he didn't http://media.giphy.com/media/Jd0lrEEuEmKWI/giphy.gif That show was so awesome. It was the Joe Maddon of comedies.
There are some meatballs out there who take pride in being worried about good teams, but mostly no, nobody's worried. This team is so good it can get horrible luck and still be 5-3-1.
I want it to end on a walk-off with the Giants doing some sort of clownshoes failure on defense, just to spite this Giants fan I know who has terrible opinions about why the A's lose and the Giants win in the postseason.
Can't talk to any other Hawks fans for awhile while this streak is going in. Don't feel like having the "variance" vs. "they just aren't being gritty" argument.
