trevor cahill Stories - Fake Teams
Colorado 14, Oakland 7: Rox win fourth straight, improve to 4-7.
Although the hunch was already there, it's probably now officially safe to say that the Rockies bats are awake (cue jinx). In today's 14-7 win over the A's (now 7-6 in Cactus League play), the Rox had five players register a multi-hit game, and collected 14 hits overall. The offensive firepower...
AN Visits with MLB.com's Mychael Urban Part I
Mychael Urban is the beat reporter for oaklandathletics.com. He's been a good friend of AN for quite a while despite some of the beatings he takes from members here. I like to check in with the A's beat reporters from time to time and I figured that with all the changes around the team this...
Breaking Down Trevor Cahill's Delivery
Driveline Mechanics is a pretty awesome blog. My buddy Kyle runs it and he does these excellent pieces on pitching deliveries. Today, with my suggestion, he broke down Trevor Cahill's delivery and arm action. Kyle has this to say: It's really tough to say, so I have to give him an Incomplete...

A Reason to Watch USA Olympic Baseball
I'm not the biggest Olympic fan in the world. I really only like watching certain team sports like soccer and during the Winter Olympics, hockey. I'm not really one to get into the badminton, swimming and all the other random sports that the Summer Olympics bring. But for obvious reasons, I...
It's Really Not As Bad As We Think
Well, maybe it is. At least right now. But I never really thought the A's were going to compete for the AL West in 2008. I thought this was a team that Billy Beane was building for the future while hoping it wouldn't be a complete failure on the field this season. A lot things happened to make...

Futures Game Wrap-Up
The 2008 XM Satellite Radio Futures Game was a dud. As much as I look forward to this one game every year, I can conclude no other way. I don't know if it is listening to Gary Thorne talk about players he knows nothing about (Fernando Martinez did not advance from the Gulf Coast League to AA...
