BP Chats

DateQuestionAnswer
2008-04-25 15:00:00 (link to chat)Could the A's conceivably win the AL West with 85 wins or so or do the Angels pull away once they get healthy (since we know Rich Harden won't!)?
(Dave from Chicago)		Right now this is looking as though it might be your typical two-team AL West battle as it's been for most of the past few years. The A's appear to be playing above their heads, but it shouldn't be all that shocking that a few things have gone especially right given the bad luck that's befallen this team in recent years, things like Bobby Crosby's health and Dana Eveland's ability to pitch at a major league level. I think a lot depends on whether John Lackey can be John Lackey when he gets back, and how well guys like Harden and Duchscherer can withstand regular turns in the rotation. (Jay Jaffe)
2008-05-01 13:00:00 (link to chat)What are your thoughts on Dana Eveland? Will his minor league success finally carry over to the bigs after been knocked around in Milwaukee and Arizona?
(Phil from Fresno)		I caught the bad outing last night, so I may be biased. I see a back-rotation guy who really needs a good outfield defense to succeed. Not a bad guy for a few years when he's cheap. (Joe Sheehan)
