Acevedo...

[GSes]

fans of the cards, astros, and cubs are all rooting for oak good job A's

Not only did the reds true pitchin colors show, as the A's Offense scored 30+ runs in 2 games and a half.

but

the reds offense ran into a little wall thats called Mulder, Zito, and Harden, they should be happy they didn't have to face Hudson.

They did get to zito though

Finally, Harden shows his true colors.

3 runs and counting, I'm thinking this ones going to come down to the end.

I was a big supporter of him here at the cafe...that is until tonight...i dumped him.

LOL same here. I was real big on him, especially looking at his WHIP prior to last night and seeing good things ahead but I just booted him for miguel batista (yikes )

I had the worst pitching day off my fantasy baseball career: Prior, Burnett, and Acevedo all got bombed! That 0-3 performance runied my night:

I'm in guys... I have tried Acevado now for 3 different appearences and thought I was playing decent matchups and he failed me every time.

I went from 3rd to 5th in my league because of Jose. Not again.... He gone!

yeah that hurts.

on the bright side, you didn't have to include oliver perez' delayed shelling due to the rainout that is going to come later today against texas!

[funatic]

Prior, Acevedo and Garcia for me. Not as bad. Also, miraculously still hold a slight temporary edge in WHIP and ERA, due to Riedling and Brown on opponent's H2H team, 9ER's in 3.1 innings.

Jose pitcher... Mesa anyone..? I was a proud owner of 2003 Mesa!

[wkelly91]

Call me an idiot but I'm stickin with him. He has had great outings, and shitty ones....He's still young

Same here! I intentionally benched him last night after watching the A's just tear the cover off of the ball in the first two games of the series. I knew Acevedo would get lit. I think this has more to do with the A's being on fire, and less to do with an Acevedo let-down. Of course I'm gonna spot start him, but I still think he's a decent (ratio) pitcher on a fairly strong team. Obviously he'll get shelled here and there, but hey...even Pedro got touched last week.
