I was all about the A's yesterday, and even with Gio Gonzalez taking over for Duke, I'm still on them. This is actually a smart move by Geren to give the kid a stab at a team he can beat and get Duke and extra day of rest. It's statistically very clear that his arm is getting tired. With this rotation already completely dismantled Duke should be taking it easy down the stretch. Guys like Gonzalez and Meyer are going to get spot starts, one will be joining the rotation very soon with Eveland gone. I don't normally bet on mlb debuts just as a general rule, (hell of a job by Chris Waters last night on the road against the Angels) but I trust my mind more than anything. Gonzalez has been tossing 1 K per inning on average and despite the walks is still close to a 2:1 ratio. Jays are pretty weak against LHP, and Marcum has been awful since returning from injury. A's pen is finally heathly, and I have to believe that Brad Ziegler is the new closer. If Geren marches Houston out there one more time Billy is going to fire him. With the way the A's have gone downhill, and the popularity of ruthless GMs this year, he'd be an idiot not to.
As for the Marlins, riding them again tonight as they are at the heels of the possibly cooling Phillies bats. Huge confidence boost finally getting a win over Moyer last night I have to imagine. If Kendrick doesn't get that monstrous run support, he's likely in for a horrible finish to this year. Disclaimer, I am having a poor year with road underdogs so far (19-35). Trying to break the curse tonight by taking undervalued pitchers against overvalued ones, it's gotta work sometime. Good Luck.
