I am so frustrated with the way our season has started. Not only have we been severely out-pitched by SD and LA; But when you see Cain on the mound go through six hitless innings, with no run support whatsoever, you know it's not just our opponent's pitching giving us trouble.
Wake up, bats! Our rotation and bullpen need you!
Tonight was also the Oakland A's home opener vs. the Chicago White Sox. Despite having their healthy ace, Rich Harden, on the hill vs. Chicago's Jose Contreras (ERA 63.00!) and the White Sox's 4-23 record in Oakland since 2001 and a sold-out audience at McAfee Coliseum, Chicago took tonight's win, 4-1.
On a positive note, I'd like to consider what the A's skipper, Bob Geren, had to say after tonight's home opener: "...it generally takes an offense a month or so to define itself."
At the rate things are going, it can only get better.
