Harbinger
Athletics Nation interviewed A's scouting director Eric Kubota on the state of Oakland's minor league pitching, among other things. This column brought D-Mac and his callup to the big club to mind, and specifically, how he did against the Sacramento River Cats, the A's AAA franchise, which he played as part of the Salt Lake Stingers on 7/19 through 7/22.
It wasn't even close: 2-12, 1 2B, 7 K's, 0 BB's.
Yeah, they know how to get him out.

What a great night! I love it when all the stars align and all the right teams win and the wrong teams lose. Angels only 1.5 back and the great thing is Boston has Pedro pitching tomorrow (today). Our NL west rivals lose, ventura moves to *THIRD* on the all-time grand slam list. "Mr. Bases-Loaded." And although I have no direct rooting interest, the NL wild card race is damn well getting interesting too. I suppose I'm hoping for the Astros because a.) obviously I hate SF; SD is not hate-worthy but definitely annoying; normally I would root for Fla. like I did last year, but that would give the loduca trolls something more to cry about; and I never ever root for the media darling/"loveable losers" ad nauseum cubs, and b.) that's pretty damn impressive to come from something like 10GB back. I can't stand Clemens after the bat throwing incident but that's not a deal breaker... go astros mmmm yea...
