After the month of April, a few things are evident about this team. The offensive struggles and pitching strengths have been well chronicled. But amidst this, the A's are relying on some players who didn't expect to play such critical roles on the squad, so soon. Danny Putnam, Dallas Braden and Travis Buck have all contributed - for better or for worse. Others, like Chad Gaudin, have stepped up to fill holes left by injuries. It's not easy...

That's very clever, witty, and ..
.. it helps to "lighten up" what is already becoming a "heavy" stretch of the season for A's fans .. thanks! ;-)

I've always enjoyedthe ANtics. They're so clever and help ease the down times.
We'll bring it around on the BoSox.

Other: no MVR
I don't see any of the rookies standing out so far as to be the MVR. TBuck has been good, but still strikes out lots. Dallas has just pitched twice, too early to guess.

Just out of curiosity...
I'm not voting, and I don't have an opinion...but why wasn't Jay Marshall included in the poll answers?

Because I Messed Up
That was a very real oversight. I think the world of Jay. Loved him in Spring Training, and love what we see now.
That's the Other (Write-In Below) category, I guess. Good catch.
