    Oakland Athletics This team blows

    Defense is atrocious, offense sucks, bullpen is shit as well.

    It was almost torture watching this team last year, and it looks like it's only going to get worse. What a joke.

    Well they were facing Hernandez.
    I wish I could play little league now. I'd be way better than before.

    Their defense was facing the Mariner's offense, though.

    It'll shape up, only one game!

    Yeah. Hold on. The Giants' defense was terrible on their opening day, as was the Red Sox.

    Actually, the Red Sox were terrible all around on their opening day.

    What happened to the A's not being such a sexy pick to win the AL West?

    It's just one game...and with that offense it won't be easy beating a pitcher like King Felix. They will get better...it's just one game.

    I have seen the A's on top of the AL West in some predictions. Cling on to that. Like the others said: It's only one game.

    The Yankees' link with the Netherlands since 1981

    The Netherlands: 2011 World Champions baseball, beating Cuba twice (4-1 and 2-1)!!!!!

    I am with everyone else....One game...

    It could of easily been opening day jitters for the A's ball club...Well defensively speaking. Offensively speaking they were facing the 2010 Cy Young Award winner.
