I'm liking the line movement...was going to play Oakland -105. Look at the pitching matchup:
Parker = 2.84 career era, 1.20 whip, and .222 batting avg. allowed
Britton = 4.55, 1.47, and .274
You can make some allowances with the parks they pitch in but Parker is much much better no matter where they play. Oakland also just won 7-2 and 16-0 vs two lefties in Toronto so Oakland is finding their groove vs southpaws. I know my old Red Jonny Gomes can pound lefties for one.
GL!!

Its mostly because of Moneyball but I'm a little bit of an A's fan now. If they manage to get some help before the trade deadline....they might atleast nail a wildcard
