Three games won this weekend would be great, but I will be happy with 2-of-3. Texas just swept 3 games from Seattle, which is one more win than we have been able to achieve in 5 games against the Mariners.
One of the issues I worry about this year is the order of the pitching rotation. Having 2 similar left-hand pitchers pitching in back-to-back games does not bode well for the guy starting the second game, in my opinion. I would rather see a right hander in between the lefties in a 3 game series. The A's have had this problem in the past with right handers, when they had Haren, Blanton, and (can't remember who that other ex-Baltimore starter was). When the A's had Mulder and Zito, they were drastically different. If I were Curt Young, I would try to break this up before the second time around for teams seeing these two.
Go A's!
