Yeah I don't disagree, I lost my long-winded response. The real problem is that park. It is so pitcher friendly, even with all the injuries the A's right now have the best (lowest) ERA in the American League and are 3rd in MLB. They really can't hit, the ball doesn't carry in the park and for whatever reason good hitters get picked up and then can't hit. DeJesus was an excellent hitter in KC, comes to Oakland and is having trouble hitting simple fastballs, its a real mystery.
