pitching struggles

Hard to read this team right now. Giving up 6.7 runs a game. That's the biggest issue. But 6.3 R/G this week. Enough pop in the lineup to matter.

Athletics News

The Athletics fell short again against the Angels, losing 9-7 and splitting the series, leaving them with a lukewarm 3-4 record over the last week. The offense has been decent, averaging 6.3 runs per game, but the pitching woes continue to haunt the team, giving up 6.7 runs per game during this stretch. Among the bright spots, Shea Langeliers is making headlines as he leads AL catchers in All-Star voting, while Colby Thomas dazzled fans with a spectacular home run robbery, earning Play of the Week honors. Meanwhile, Zack Gelof is proving his worth in a utility role, adding depth to a young lineup that is starting to show its potential. The A’s must find a way to tighten the pitching if they're going to turn this season around.
