——- Who wants to play the Oakland athletics in the PLAYOFF?

[ikid2groove415]

Nobody !!! Billy b have built a contender again 3rd time !!!

[jm8122]

Cinderella team to go deep in the playoffs possibly with lowest bankroll

[zizoudane10]

Finally

[jtoler]

nobody hitting over .281 on team, pitching not near good enough besides that they want make the playoffs anyway

[krk1030]

Yankees
Red sox
Astros
Indians

All would love to face them rather than another team from that group.

[unde0087]

Are they even going to make the playoffs? It took this amazing run just to catch up to the rest of the contenders. How much longer can they keep this up? It was a full release but it seems to me that it is going to be premature.

[krk1030]

Only 1 game back of Seattle. Its a 2 team race for that last WC spot.

Only chance either would have is if the yankees and red sox battle it out to the final day cor the division and do not have Severino/sale for the WC game.

[ikid2groove415]

They will make the playoff - incredible to rebuilt a team 3x with rarely any free agent help -

[ikid2groove415]

Oakland can beat any of those teams - no juggernaut- houston/indians got the strongest rotation but there bullpen is suspect - Boston have suck in the playoffs 2 years in a row - Yankees I believe would be Oakland toughest match up

Pitching still very suspect.. Don't like them in the playoffs all that much.. They are on a roll right now and playing well though.. Bats are hot right now and carrying the load..

They are winning games on the road - last 5 games.. Let's see how they play in Colorado in this next series.. I expect a lot of runs scored..

Best bullpen along with the Yankees

[danwinkler]

judge out for atleast 3 weeks.

[darrell74]

Somebody should just tail the Oakland Athletics for every single game for the rest of the regular season and see how they do

[jjgold]

seattle
tampa
oakland

Seattle never even need Cano...way better without him

proves again you do not need over paid stars that bat approx 240

[ikid2groove415]

AL is wide open -

[JIBBBY]

I'm a little gun shy to play the A's tonight in game 1 of this series.. Rockies are playing great themselves right now 8-2 in their last 10 games.. Solid at home right..

A's are really gonna have to try and bring it tonight.. Still I'm never spooked to shy away from a winning streak.. Gonna play the A's for small probably.. Over is high but that could land too..

Given the A's mediocre playoff record in recent history, nobody is fearing them.
