Every once in a while we take notice of the A's, who opened a few eyes with their midweek sweep of the Angels at the Coliseum, blanking the Halos the last two days. Mark Kotsay's bullpen is humming again, and Friday starter Hogan Harris (3.18 ERA), save his past few starts, has been mostly serviceable. Meanwhile the Baltimore offense has been a bit sluggish on the current road trip. Oakland's offense, however, remains a bit hit-and-miss, so O's pleasant surprise Albert Suarez (2.43 ERA) likely hands over limited damage to his bullpen. Clearing 8.5 runs looks a chore. I'm on the Under.
