No pics of the A's gay pride day hats they're wearing this year? Thought this thread would be full of those.
 
Russell sent down as well. All will be back shortly. :pimp:

(Still wondering where they gonna put Russell/Castro/Baez).

Bryant in Left, one of them moves to Third?
 
I seen on Twitter that the A's were having a rainbow day. Wristbands and hats, scheduled later this season.

400

Not sure why this Kris Bryant situation is garnering so much attention. It's a smart business decision and makes complete sense. The only person who should be bitter is Scott Boras, but it's his job.

They're gonna use Bryant as the poster child to change the rule. Kind of like KG being the first high schooler to enter, then 500 the next decade.

Theo has done the same thing for each and every rookie, including Baez and Soler, Russell, etc. No one says a word.

But Bryant has everyone bloggin and writing articles online, and twitter fires, etc. :lol:
 
MLB union is the mightiest in the US so it wouldnt shock me if this rule changed.

But from someone with no cards in this game, the players have to concede at least something once in a blue moon. Even their mediocre get paid well. Nobody will care if Bryant lives up to the hype and gets that 300 million extension down the road.
 
Pull your skirt=you are exposing your *****/the fact that you are a *****

Wash your face=you've made a fool of yourself/ you have "egg" on your face

The "pull your skirt down b" I assume started as a NY thing cuz Cam/Dame were the first dudes I remember using it back in the day

I guess when used in tandem it means you just got ****** but I never remember nobody doin that back then

Thanks I knew what pull your skirt down meant but never the washing of face comment

Pirates and Pedro went crazy today
 
And that right there is the whole issue.

Theo has already shown, with both Rizzo and Castro, he will get a deal done BEFORE it needs to be, to benefit both the player,and the team. Bryant will be paid long before 2021, which is why this is all such bull ****.

He'll get called up April 20th, a few days after he's "expected" to be. Theo wants him to come up, on the road, not at home. April 17th is a home series, he'll wait til the 20th in Pittsburgh.

If Bryant shows out this year and next, Bryant will have a deal on the table before the end of 2016. All this crap will be a huge waste of time.
 
I wouldn't be so confident in Bryant resigning before '21, besides Jered Weaver, Boras clients usually don't sign contract extensions. I'm already prepared for the day Harper leaves for an insane contract.

Like preseason anything, I don't start really following until Day 1 of the real stuff...Thought Opening Day was consistent with the first few days of April...Gotta wait a whole 'nother week. Damn. :smh:
