Daily Dose: July 3 - who are these guys?

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Justin Duchscherer?
Dana Eveland?
Greg Smith?

At least I've heard of Rich Harden and Joe Blanton.

Quick! Name three of the regular starters for the Oakland A's. Right now!

You can't can you? You probably said Frank Thomas, but the Big Hurt has been hurtin' big for most of his time back in Oakland.

I mean, Daric Barton, Jack Hannahan and Ryan Sweeney?

They're the Twins of the West - a team that always seems to win despite having no "name" players on the roster, always seems to beat the White Sox and always seems to find pitchers that for whatever reason dominate major league hitters on a regular basis.
