RIP Manute Bol

Humanitarian. Influential coiner of phrases. Warrior.

A big man both physically and mentally.

Game Thread A’s vs. Cubs Top Chef Premiere yay

CoJack gets his first hit and first run! Nice to see a guy who doesn’t suck a lot at hitting lead off.
Rotation injuries piling up for Texas. #6 starter Tommy Hunter who was pitching obnoxiously well left today’s game. Looks like they’ll win the game though, and they’ll win 9 straight vs. Hou/Pit/Hou, so [...]

A’s Acquire Conor Jackson for Demel

They needed help vs. LHPs and this is that. Conor Jackson is not very good overall, though, and he might suck now after being injured stricken with “valley fever” (sounds like an std…) last year. Other people will dislike losing Demel more than me. I don’t have strong feelings about this.

Seems like Rosales lf, Fox DH would be better, but whatever.
