  1. FTA:

    Why has he (Serevino) been so much better on the road?

    “Because we play in a big-league stadium on the road,” he said.

    “We don’t have that at home right now. It’s not the same. It’s not the same atmosphere. We don’t have a lot of fans. Our clubhouse is in left field. So, when we play day games, we have to just be in the sun. There’s no air conditioning there, too. It’s really tough.”

  2. I mean, no shit. He signed that contract knowing full well the situation he was entering into.

  3. Well, no shit Sherlock. Like, was he not paying attention when he signed that contract ?!? Did he think the move to Vegas already happened ?!?!? 😂😂😂

  4. He needs to get traded. The reality is, he hasn’t been that much better on the road lately. He just got shelled in Detroit… He’s given up the most earned runs in MLB this year – that’s not all the ballpark (and most runs on the A’s pitching staff)… I’m guessing he’s gone by the deadline

  5. Didn’t he just get rocked in Detroit, pretty sure that’s a big league stadium

  6. Duh!!!! That’s why they threw so much money at you! If they offered market you wouldn’t have signed…oh and I’m sure most Oakland Fans said that when you signed….its gonna suck

  7. To save money for stadium construction, he’ll be traded to the Pirates (owned by Bob Nutting, aka John Fisher of the East).

  8. The other team’s pitchers seem to be doing fine. He’s the one lobbing BP out there.

  9. Biggest A’s contract ever but the dude sucks at “home”. He’ll be traded after next year.
